I have played both Victoria 1 and 2, and of those two, I massively prefer Victoria 1. Yes some things are a little monotonous like selecting the specific territories you want to annex from a large nation, but overall, I think this game gives the time period a very solid representation of the time period. This game taught me what happened in our world almost 200 years ago, and I'd say this is where my love for history and geography began.
The graphics may be dated, but I prefer this any day to the weird 3d and soulless graphics of Victoria 2. I have a lot of nostalgia for this game. Yes it has a steep learning curve, but once you've figured out how to build armies, manage your finances, and make strategic geopolitical decisions, then you'll be carving up an empire where the sun never sets in no time.
You take any country on earth from the time period, and you decide how its future unfolds. Want to conquer the world before 1900 as China? Want to command the Ottomans to conquer all of Africa? Want to start as Prussia, unite the German states together, and then destroy the British Empire forever? All of that is absolutely possible in this game and the possibilities are as endless as your imagination. This game does not hold you back, it gives you the power, and lets you decide. Have rebels taken over your capital? Let them have it to force your government to change! Lots of chaotic fun is yours to have and the world is yours to burn down or not!
Without modding the game yourself (which is super easy btw. You can make your own custom countries, events, and even national flags which I find is the hardest to do because you need photoshop for that) I'd give the game a 7/10. I think $10.00 is a very fair price in my opinion.
