They zre right about not finishing games, There was a poll a few months ago and IIRC 90% of players responded that they do not finish games.

But if you want to try victory points, here is my formula. Not claiming this is ideal, it is just what I developed and use. (I don't finish games either, unless they are on a very small map.)

One single point victory province per 20 provinces on the map. One victory point for capitols. Victory condition 33% to 40% of the sum of victory points. The 2 and 3 point victory provinces should only be set up for modded maps in my opinion. When you set up VP conditions you do get to find all capitols merely by the VP markers, a small bonus.
