ARGENTINA Is My FAVORITE COUNTRY So Far - | Victoria 3 A to Z |

I can confirm, this guy was first

"what's wrong with Argentina? Why people don't wanna live here?" "Money is dipping way down now, why is everything so expensive?" The true Argentina experience

[@Mr_Valentin.]

WA HAAI finally I've been waiting for you to play Argentina, i love Argentina from Argentina!

[@АнтонКозак-и4ц]

"Why are my people migrates to Peru?!" - uh, don't know, maybe because absurdly high taxes in your country?)

[@corymolyneux4384]

Yeah, it's a bit annoying how little awareness this guy has towards this games sometimes

[@MrCalls1]

He as a person is enjoyable to watch. His videos are still good. But it’s a really strange strategy his unique feature is of everyone playing vic3 he seems the only one who doesn’t …. Do economy… he doesn’t make construction sectors at the right points, he doesn’t manage taxes or consumption taxes, he doesn’t build urban buildings or resources much, he seems to mostly build farms. He doesn’t do an industrialisation or capitalist loop. He doesn’t seem to regularly check trade. I don’t know I’m kind of gesturing at “everything” economic here lol. It just isn’t on his mind

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

So this is kinda a big answer but I'll try to explain it because I do get comments like this often. I tend not to focus hard on economy because it really isn't worth my time and effort to do so. In the grand scheme of youtube I have to worry about things a bit differently, I have to prioritize the thumbnail and title of the Video. That means I need something eye catching. Usually that just means I need to take over a lot of land as a nation in order to advertise it in the thumbnail without click baiting people. Now technically speaking I should hard focus economy in order to build up later and crush everyone right? In theory yes, however this game starts to run poorly at about the 1870-1880 range. That means in order to accomplish anything interesting, instead of playing 3 hours a session, I'm now playing 6 hours, which is a massive difference turnaround time. Unfortunately this basically means If I want my videos to get views/make enough money to justify doing this, then I have to focus on military stuff instead of Economic stuff. Maybe in the future when I have enough of an audience where I don't have to worry about it I'll do the economy well, but until then it kinda just is what it is.

@@TobyYellsAtThings okay, i'm just joked and have no intentions to criticise you. If i have offended you, I'm sorry

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

@@АнтонКозак-и4ц You're fine. I was responding to someone else in the comment chain. I'm not irritated, just sometimes I feel like I need to explain why I play this game the way I do.

[@andrewblair370]

love when you ask “can i pronounce this?” like you need permission 😂

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

The youtube comments will bully me

[@guibbers]

A little bit jealous because I'm from Brazil but that's alright, you can even make our hermanos be entertaining to watch.

[@agme8045]

You can also be Argentinian, you just need to feel it inside of you. Anyone can be Argentinian

[@thebadstation8416]

Thanks!

[@Salazatl]

Tobias channeling Mao with that landowner comment lol

[@niofalpha]

A very fun country in the game is Hejaz and I look forward to when H comes around.

[@4jinnawat]

How many hours do you take for a nation to run in this a-z challenge?

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

I usually play each nation about 3 to 4 hours.

[@Mohammedbouziani_29]

Yo that s cool but can you play morocco it s very very very hard😅

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

I tried to play Morocco once, I went terrible and I cried. Real talk though, that is a nation I want to play as a non A to Z country. If I can figure out something cool to do with them I'll make a video on them.

[@cantalope6980]

how do u record/ edit like ur running out of time!?

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

Because honestly, that's how it feels. I have a lot of free time at the moment that I won't have forever. If I'm not able to build up the channel enough to make it a career by then, then I'll have to do something else as a Job. Thankfully that's a while off but I still need to put a ton of work in now to build it up.

[@cantalope6980]

@@TobyYellsAtThings true the work is really paying off the content is great! i’d love to just play paradox games rather than an actual job so im fulfilling that dream through u

This run was wild America never conquered and Germany formed.

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

in 800 hours of game time I can count on one hand how often America doesn't take Mexico's lunch money

The PAN and the NCA existing in 1850 is hillarious to me

[@abrvalg321]

While you were waiting to take on Paraguay, why not go to Africa and get a bit there?

[@TobyYellsAtThings]

I don't think I ever said why, but when I was thinking about doing it I didn't have a navy to invade with.

[@grahamturner2640]

@@TobyYellsAtThings fair. One of the things I tend to do when playing Argentina is to build a decent navy. It's great for prestige and also venturing out to Africa or other parts of South America.

[@cactusnecktie]

This was painful to watch. Bro. Completely ignores his economy, Jack's taxes to the roof, crashes his standard of living, and then acts shocked when his pops try to migrate. Migrate. Controls only work on discriminated pops, your people just decided they would rather live somewhere else. Economy first, then war when you can afford it
