Is there any redeeming this game? Its biggest fans seem to be illiterate in more ways than just economically and I'd dare say would quit altogether if the ahistorical +10SoL perfect wealth redistribution button, worker coops, was removed.

You're thinking of Vicky II. 3 is a choose your own adventure visual novel. Any Springtime of Nations or Workers of the World Unite moment is a journal entry.
>what
Every country has the same moral values. The hard left, aka worker moral core in the game is a binary worker's rights or none.
>what
If you ran the simulation from the start date without allowing any state changes, Jews, and some other minorities, would slowly be assimilated as if there were no reason for their existence, as if they're unnatural or a mistake. A similar thing would happen to all minorities if you deleted all homelands.
>wages too
I don't see how.
>meds
>meds. now.
You have looked around at the subreddit and the official forum right? There's even a post up right now where redditors are fuming that someone's playing Israel and asking how to get Jews to migrate.

Western jews were assimilating at a relatively fast pace at the time, specially in countries like Germany - before moustachioed man came along that is.

He expected a game where a perfect and stable chud utopia of EVROPA gets sabotaged by freemason and jewish conspiracies, and he can save it.

jews did not assimilate, they hung together in ghettos and monopolized many industries such as banking. Hitler set back the eradication of jewry by a century or more.

Wrong. Anglos and then Ameroids set back the assimilation by centuries.

antisemitism was the norm worldwide before ww2. if hitler had ignored the jews they would not have gotten israel or been heaped with aid and pity for the past 70 years.

Pretty sure the (((Spartacist Uprising))) and (((Bavarian Soviet Republic))) happened before Hitler started doing anything political.

No. Stop playing Paradox games. They're just "what-if" history wankworks where jeopardy-watching neoyuppies and history PhD dropouts are doing the what-iffing. The actual game is just cookie clickering. There are some pretty boring historical games out there like rule the waves, anything by slitherine, and gary grigsby's war you probably haven't heard of, but at least these games are an attempt to accurately model some real historic conflict. Paradox games are total retardation like, "What if Somalia was a world power in 1593? That will be 238 Euros (plus VAT)." They're not good games and they're not good simulations. They're not even well programmed.

That's one way to put it.
Still weirded out by how it's a progressive game yet races are all defined in blankets and culture is race.
