Compared to Crusader Kings, it's more intuitive and improves on the map-level elements like trade/diplomacy/development. War is a bit more simple and it's hard to be an expansionist. Grand strategy is my big genre and Victoria is the jewel of it to me. You'll probably get hundreds of hours from the base game alone.
Also selling me on simplified war. It's probably what's keeping me from trying to give Stellaris a legitimate try as well. I'd much rather work on other systems instead of needing to focus on making sure I had enough units in case of an attack.
A few years ago I was playing Civ 5 and knocked out a computer opponant just for a land grab and still feel like a dick for it lol. The dude had like onencity and I was at like 3 since I was doing a total horizontal game trying to cover the entire continant.
