Thread 2101046

the hoi4 mod has 12 paragraph-long popups every 2 days that read like "The General sat down at his mahogany desk and pulled out a pack of cigarettes, lighting one and taking a long drag before calling the Prime Minister. It was going to be a long night, and the nation couldn't rest."

>deliberately choose to download and enable a mod that makes HoI4 into a visual novel
>complain when its a visual novel
what did he mean by this?

>>2101062
It's the only thing that vanilla HOI4 did right, like it's fundamentally not a character or narrative-driven game, it's just a waste of time. Just give me a short pop-up written in the style of a news article, or something

TNO is shit for many reasons but this is one of them (but KR and OWB definitely have countries that play like this as well)

>that makes HoI4 into a visual novel
nigger it's already a shitty visual novel. hoi4 fags need to be marched into a volcano

CK2 vanilla is also a visual-novel, a really bad one, nothing happens so you make time go faster and then you get PTSD from the constant pop-ups of the same events ("random city prospers, random port gets destroyed") that you don't care.

Funny how people don't get why grand-stategy is a dead genre monopolised by Paratards Nothing-burgers.
>develop a nothing-burger
>get shock that nobody play it and choose CoD ever single year
>repeat
I wonder when will exist a grand-strategy game that's is fun to play because the AI is actually intelligent and cool things happen based in your / AI actions.

People hate HoI4 simps, but CK2 cucks are even worse, somehow.

>>2101171
Why should I care that a game I like doesn't have mass appeal

>>2101171
Bot post?

>Divergences of Darkness gets a fan fork made
>it adds a lot of content but half of it is snide leftist bitching about nationalism or seething about characters the author wrote himself but hates

>>2101046 (OP)
Have you tried not playing TNO?

>>2101046 (OP)
I was thinking the same, but then i played mod with well written stories (anbennar for eu4) and realized that actually i dont dislike story events, i just hate TNO

>walls of slop

>>2101171
>and then you get PTSD from the constant pop-ups
pathetic troon

>>2102006
wait until you get to the newer tags. anbennar is total slop. being based and liking your tag? uhm sweetie have you thought about becoming a republic and hosting soulless low stat bureaucrats who force you to accept ORCS and HARPIES and all the other literally sub-human beast races?

I can tell you one thing. Orcs make up just 3% of the Wesdamer population, but commit a staggering 89% of violent crime.

This kind of fuckers download games that are just spreadsheets with windowdressing and then complain they have to read 2 whole paragraphs.

>>2101064
I miss old vanilla HOI4 when it was just a normal board game. That was a better time.

>>2109247
spreadsheets convey valuable information. while writing can also convey valuable information, the writing found in most mods is poorly-written fanfic filler

>>2109247
>AIIIIIIEEEEE SAVE ME NAVAL TREATY MAN!!!

I play EAW a lot and never read any posts. Mod is fun because i dont have to look at the events

>>2101046 (OP)
Heavily depends the mod. I love EaW but some of the nation's are just reading War and Peace with a little bit of micro thrown in. TFR and TNO are the absolute worst but you're a retard faggot if you think that they were supposed to real mods (both made by trannies). Especially TFR. It's literally a dumb downed version of Millenium Dawn with a 1000 pages of horseshit.

>>2101628
Almost like trannies make these mods eh?

>>2109641
People who think the naval system is complicated should be put down. I ranted to my girlfriend for an embarrassing amount of time about how much I hate people who think the Naval system is a mystery.

>>2101046 (OP)
it's just advanced tct atp. tct has been crack for hoi4 modders
