Oh, the hours I must have spent playing HOI3. All I know for sure is that they are less than the ones I have spent learning how to play HOI3. Loved the combat and logisitics mechanics, hated the fact that there is little to no flavor in making a post-war Europe (the tags stay the same regardless of ideology, not even the flags change); HOI2 DH was the best in that aspect.

I love it for the wargaming aspect of it. The political side is lacking admittedly, but I enjoy it a lot more compared to the memery that is HoI4.

I tried Darkest Hour but it was too clunky for me unfortunately.

In the political aspect HOI3 and HOI4 are absolute opposites, each one terrible for their own reasons. The former because you cannot have an ideology switch at all unless you keep switching tags with the console to use espionage on yourself with another country and also maybe having a 2% chance to coup another country with espionage maxxed (which changes absolutely nothing historically, enjoy communist Romania joining Barbarossa on the side of Germany); the latter because politics is made of "press button to turn Japan into a proletarian dictatorship in 1937" and "choose decision to restore ridiculously anachronistic state".

This is the WW2 mod right, I was always skeptical of it since I wasn't sure if it was balanced well enough. I usually stick to HPM because I am perpetually running into economic collapses in anything else.

It's HOI3 I think

Damn, lol. I haven't played HOI3 in probably literal decades, I instinctively assumed it was Vic2
