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."

what did he mean by this?

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

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.

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.

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

Have you tried not playing TNO?

>>2101046 (OP)
