Hello everyone! I’m Mikael, Victoria 3’s lead game designer - and oh boy does it feel good to finally be able to say that out loud! Today I have the pleasure to reveal some details about that one feature everyone thinks about when they hear “Victoria” - the Pops.
大家吼，我是维多利亚3的首席游戏设计师Mikale，能够最终大声讲出这句话真是太太太太棒了（憋不住）。今天我非常荣幸来展示一些细节，关于那个影响人们对维多利亚系列游戏看法的pop系统。

Pops were introduced in the very first Victoria game to represent your country’s population. Pop mechanics have since snuck into other Paradox titles like Stellaris and Imperator. But this in-depth population simulation is what Victoria is about, and we’re going to bring you a system with more depth than ever before!
pop机制在v1时代就被引入来代表国家的人口，也被引入p🐍的其他游戏，比如群星和ir(ir我滴ir，rnm退钱)。但是这个深度人口模拟机制还是最能代表维多利亚系列的本质。v3将带给你前所未知更深入的（人口模拟）。

In Victoria 3, Pops are the country’s engine - they work the industries, they pay the taxes, they operate the government institutions, and they fight the wars. They’re born, they die, they change occupation, they migrate. And they organize, get angry, and start revolutions.
在维多利亚3，pop们是国家的引擎—他们在工厂工作，他们交税，他们运行政府机关，他们在战场上奋战。他们出生又死亡，他们转职和迁徙。他们也会组织起来，表达愤怒，最终揭竿而起。

Every Pop is visualized so you can see which demographic sports the best moustache. Note that Pop portraits are very much a work in progress!
每个pop（也就是v2里的一行）都是可视化的，所以你可以这部分人口都蓄着贼讲究的胡子！做出这样的人口肖像是我们工作的重大成就（自满）。

You, the player, might be in charge of the country, but you’re not in charge of the Pops and can’t manipulate them directly. Yet everything you do to the country affects them, and they in turn will react in what they perceive to be their own best interests. A large part of your game will consist of trying to sate your population’s appetites for material goods or political reform. But most actions you will take aren’t to the benefit of every Pop in your nation, and by making life better for one part of the population you may inadvertently upset another demographic.
你作为玩家，要负责治理国家，但是你不为pop负责也不能直接控制他们。不过你在治理国家时做的所有事情最终会影响到pop，反过来他们也会凭借他们以为的自己最大利益做出反应。你在游戏中的很大一部分内容都在用商品物资满足他们的需求，或者通过改革来迎合他们的政治诉求。不过你也不能做每一件事都是为了每一个pop的好处，改善一部分人的生活可能会触摸另一部分人。

The most important aspect of Pops are their Professions, which reflects the types of jobs it carries out in the building where they work. A Pop’s profession determines its social class and can affect its wages, political strength, what other professions it might qualify for, and particularly which political Interest Groups it’s prone to supporting (which you will hear lots more about in future Dev Diaries.) Some of the Pop professions you will encounter in Victoria 3 are Aristocrats, Capitalists, Bureaucrats, Officers, Shopkeepers, Machinists, Laborers, and Peasants. Investing in industries that provide job opportunities for the kinds of professions you want to encourage in your country is key to the “society building” gameplay of Victoria 3.
pop特性中最重要的一方面是他们的职业，代表他们从事什么性质的工作。pop的职业决定了他的社会阶级，影响他们的收入和政治权利，又进一步影响他们未来可能会转向哪些其他职业，以及他可能会支持什么样的利益集团（ig，以后的开发日志你会知道更多）。你在维多利亚3里会见到的一些职业包括：贵族、资本家、官僚、职员、店主、机械师、劳工、农民。投资工厂以创造你想要鼓励的相关职业就业岗位是在维多利亚3中进行社会建设的核心玩法。

Every variation of Profession, Culture, Religion, and Workplace in the world gets its own unique Pop. At any given time this results in many tens of thousands of Pops in the world working, migrating, procreating, and agitating.
每一个在同一个地方工作从事相同职业的同文化同宗教群体构成一个单独的pop。从任何时间看，全世界数以万计的pop群体都在工作、迁徙、生育、骚动。
（22生活条件，这吃的确实比法国中产阶级好）

The people that make up a Pop are distinguished into Workforce and Dependents. Members of the Workforce keep the buildings in the game operational and collect a wage from them in return. Those who cannot or aren’t permitted to be officially employed are considered Dependents. They collect only a small income from odd jobs and government programs.
组成pop的有劳动力和受扶养人（妇女儿童）。作为劳动力的pop成员维持游戏里生产建筑的运转，并且得到工资回报。那些不能或不被允许雇佣的人口就是受扶养人，他们只能打零工或者接受政府补助得到很少的收入。

Laws affect who is included in each category. At game start most countries do not accept women working and collecting a wage outside the home but by reforming laws governing the rights of women more Dependent Pops will enter the Workforce over time. By abolishing child labor, the amount of income Dependents bring home will decrease but will make it easier to educate your populace, increasing their overall Literacy. After a bloody war many Dependents of soldiers may be left without sufficient income, and you may decide to institute pensions to help your population recover.
法律会决定哪些人属于劳动力，游戏开始的时候，绝大部分国家不允许女性出门工作挣钱，但是通过法律改革保障女性权利，随着时代进步越来越多以前的“受扶养人”可以进入职场。通过禁止使用童工，受扶养人给家庭带来的收入会减少，但是会有助于让你的民众接受教育，提高总体识字率。在一场惨烈战争之后，许多烈属得不到足够谋生的收入，你可能需要研究抚恤金福利来帮助你的民众度过难关。

In short: nothing in your country runs without Pops, and everything about your country affects those Pops, who in turn provide new opportunities and challenges during your tumultuous journey through the Victorian era and beyond.
总而言之，你的国家运行离不开pop，你国家的一切事务也都会影响pop，他们反过来给你的维多利亚喧哗时代之旅带来机遇和挑战。

I have oh so much more to say, but that is all for this week! You will hear much more from me in future Dev Diaries. Next week Martin will return to explain something quite central to the game - Capacities!
我还有太多想说要说的，但是这些就是这周份的了（你给我回来）。你将从我这挤牙膏出来的开发日志知道更多消息，下周Martin会来讲解游戏非常核心的Capacities。

施工完了，这周的饼也是小的可以，内容基本上是之前就透露/推测出来的，没什么新意，比较有价值的是第二张实机图片。从人像上看，感觉美工变好了一点。
开发日志溜完了，又是一周空虚的等待。呜呜呜，我先到梦里测试游戏去了，大家晚安。

楼主辛苦
