Demo or pre-order ?

The idea of POPs is the hardest thing to grasp in the game and that is partly because the development of POPs in gaming terms could have used work. When the game first came out POPs were little understood and it took a while for people to master manage them.
I would have much preferred a system whereby POPs manage themselves and have a fluid and automated system by which they moved up and down in society based on hard work, luck and education.
Instead we have the gamey system where we can move the job system and lifestyle of millions of people.
I never liked the POP system in its current form

I am not exactly sure if you know this, but in Victoria 2 bolded part is true.

Think I'll get the Demo first. On one hand Vicky wasn't my favourite Paradox game. On the other hand money isn't exactly good at the minute.

Funny. I'm economist and I've never before seen this acronym.
I love this forum

You should have read more Heinlein as a child. Guaranteed to make you think more, warp your mind and turn you against Christians. Seriously.

It's a wonder that I have what little sanity I have.

When I was a child I couldn't read english I know the term, but not as an acronym, so czech books wouldn't help me much

And I assume you mean Robert Heinlein, the one who wrote Starship troopers. I actually liked that one and the fascist-like society there. I wonder how could it be transfered to V2

My fav was Citizen of the Galaxy. It was intended more for young people, but back then I was one.

I did not know that. Thank you for pointing that out. Wow that really makes me happy. The POP system was the only single thing with the original Victoria that I unhappy with and felt didn't work well. It was also extremely gamey.
The population was the second thing but that was eventually fixed.

I'll looking to see whether or not my PC can handle the game first, so I'll be downloading the demo. I went and purchased HOI3 to find out it wasn't compatible with my system, which seems odd as I can handle both Empire and Napoleon Total War without much hassle, and no offensive but paradox games are hardly on the scale of Total War and I don't know why they persist on marketing their games on higher end PC's.

Maybe Paradox are in league with major companies which sell computer hardware, it might be a hunch but I know for a fact that they are continuing to make average games using the most advanced systems and making us the consumers upgrade our PC's in order to play their games.
