I am a Novice who use Ubuntu two months. And now Victoria 2 on sales on GOG. But I don't know how to play it. Hope someone teach me how can I run this game. By the way,I try my best to use Wine,but it always get error. It's difficult to use x32 to run. I can't understand. Please told me the program step by step!

Renaming v2game.exe to victoria2.exe worked for me.

If you skip the intro cinematic wait for the game to start. It appears as if it crashes but it's ok. Also I remember the first time I had to wait a bit for it to load things during the loading screenm I guess it was caching stuff.

You can use lutris to more easily control settings instead of dealing with wine, if you don't want to deal with setting up wine .
