Looks boring to be honest, like its a mile wide but an inch deep.

Hardest thing about these games is the ui

If you get the hang of the game it's pretty fun to roleplay with yourself.

This

Stellaris is better

History is boring

I am finally able to play as fucking Venezuela. Other GSG i have played were always either medieval, or didnt count Venezuela as a country (for example they would mix Colombia and venezuela as one)


Anyways, i just conquered Colombia and Ecuador, and liberated Peru from Great Britain control.

Having a blast senpai

Possibly, albeit I just don't have the time to learn a bunch of different terms, conditions, and rules to get grand strategy.

>Hardest thing about these games is the ui
Thats the most stupid argument thats ever been parroted around here. These games ARE the UI. There's a reason they're called "spreadsheet" simulator.

If you say that the ui is the hardest thing, you simply admit to being a retard that can't handle the supposedly "easy" games. Because the ui in HoI4 is neither, obstrusive or shit.

it's impossible to discuss them anyway because of the /vg/ facebookjerk, see the first post in this thread

>HOI 4
>gsg
Sorry kid, come back after you played previous HOI games, then we will talk.

How much of the game is about unit composition? I found making armies in HOI3 was as boring as sin, and it was more fun to just play the scenarios doing flanking maneuvers and shit.

go back to your containment board autist

they fixed that

hello ,reddit!

hol4 isnt a GSG in the first place, and hes right in saying most GSG are shit because their UIs are broken or convoluted

CK2 has a fucking mess of a UI

>These games ARE the UI.
No they are not, they are about depth and interlocking of features.

The fact the UI is utter shit in most GSG is what makes them hard.

Not that this is a GSG in the first place.

>is (board full of memewashed neomillennial faggot cocksuckers mostly from alaska, california, and australia) too stupid for grand strategy
you tell me

>Haha! im so cool and hip look at me be meta!
You're worse than shitposters

>alaska
wot

>neomillennial

That's a neat word, you made up a definition for it yet?

did I hit too close to home

you tell me

did I hit too close to home

i assume grand strat players are usually a bit older than the average population on this board

well the average population in this shithole is probably around 14 so that's not saying much

>implying
have you seen /gsg/?

I sure am

>did I hit too close to home

Yes, because the vast majority of us are millenials, so I'm curious as to how you're exclusing yourself from being a neomillenial.

This juvenile shit pretty much answers the question

Pic unrelated

>look, i play this game, i'm so intelligent
That's the target audience now paradox is facing. No wonder their games went to the shitter.

i wasn't implying, i was assuming. i'm just here because i was checking this board to see if there was a thread on HoI4 that had actual discussion and not just a bunch of dick swinging people talking about how hardcore they are. i'll leave you to it boys

>is Sup Forums too stupid for grand strategy
>calling hoi4 a grand strategy game
you were asking for shitposting lad

seems you got lost on your way to

where is this all-powerful all-knowing committee of elder psions that decides objectively, empirically, and permanently what is or is not a grand strategy

who gave them such power

big fan of KOEI's stuff

i'm not the op though but i agree it was a bad way to start a thread

This is not real life, I repeat, this is NOT real life. This is a PC exclusive in the year 2016.

Whether Sup Forums is too stupid or not, the important thing is we'll find a way to feel superior anyway.

You take that back CK2's UI is great

They're just a bunch of circlejerking retards from /vg/.

well then who the fuck gave them the power to make these decisions

that's like letting ISIS have nukes
nothing good can come of this

Basically, most of them are around 16-18ish and the ones who are above that are severely mental ill - they cling upon this autism power as a means to feel elitist despite having no redeemable qualities irl.

stellaris > hearts of iron IV

I'll say it, I love the ahistorical shit.

You have no idea how good it feels to reform the actual goddamn Roman Empire, or step out of the Targaryens' shadow and reform Valyria.

Triggered "history buff" spotted. Go back to map painting, dipshit.

Why are the fucking Tullys in the westerlands

Circlejerker leave.

Marriage alliances followed by incredibly bad luck. When Tywin literally drank himself to death, all the Lannisters died off in short order. Aegon & Dany showing up was the final nail in the coffin.

Fun fact, while Dany's likely to rampage in Mereen, it's not unheard of for her to accept Aegon's offer. They steamroll Westeros if she does.

HOI4 is GS, it's just shit and dumbed down in every conceivable way

i.e. not GS

>Tywin literally drank himself to death, all the Lannisters died off in short order. Aegon & Dany showing
Wat?

Of course not. They've just found that the only winning move is not to play.

Every genre needs a lower bound for quality

...

the GoT mod is my favourite gsg

>hoi4
>draw an arrow and win
>hard

EU4babbies, everybody

Tywin got the drunkard trait and literally drank himself to death.

Tyrion was shortly assassinated and Aegon/Dany duo executed the rest of the Lannisters. The only remaining one in line was a Tully. Lannister, at that screencap, is a completely extinct house.

Ignore me, I am retarded.
I thought you were talking about the books/tv show.

I think the ck2 UI is ok, the only thing that sucks is the search 'x' window. Bugs for me heaps for some reason. Stellaris UI needs work and EU4 isnt bad either.

Although maybe I have crippiling autism

Willy

Literally easier than stellaris, here is me storming Berlin as Denmark

Mosley

literally meme people

>there are people on Sup Forums who haven't played Distant Worlds

>there are people that play with automatisation

>implying I use any automation whatsoever

Ma nigga

Spoken like a true pleb, Stellaris isn't even good in it's own genre

Sell me on this game.

Is it just me or the OST is too similar to JRPGs

aka. superb?

No
Fucking

Tell me you're just joking.
