I think I would rather not assume an elitist tone here.
When I want to dig in and play a "Man's game" then I will hit start on a multiple list of games I own from Matrix/Slitherine. The heck with it sometimes!! I like to be able to play conquer and have a little fun every once in a while that can be done in almost one evening after I get home from work.
Thanks Ranger33 for this: I also like to be able to play a game (call it kiddy game if you wish) that doesn't involve me spending 3.5 hours figuring on how to move 1 icon on the map to invade lowly Poland in September of 1939. That map looks great and has some really cool features, I don't think anyone can dispute that. I wasn't even interested in HOI4 until I watched that video, because I never really had fun with HOI2 or 3, despite multiple sessions as various countries. Not everyone has the time or energy to direct the entire Eastern Front in anything approaching realistic detail. For me, I honestly wouldn't mind a streamlined, easier to play version of HOI3 (or WW2 grand strategy in general). Yep, they are crap, most adult wargames games left can be found in Matrix. I mean seriously assassinations are only 50g and the forum posts run wild about anytime there is something you don't like "assassinate" someone even the children when they come of legal age but are still children. I mean CK2 is more like The Sims than it is a historiacal replay of the times. Lol Jim are you just now realizing HOI is a kids game? Paradox moved to kids games many years ago. The bigger the guns, the bigger the navy, and the more chance you win the war.". To quote Johan at about 14:50, "This is kind of awesome, everyone wants to customize their own ships. I just don’t see the fun in a game like this.Įdit: OMFG I watched the rest of it.
A guess would be it took less than 1 minute real time to conquer Poland. I watched about half of this, not one mention about historical accuracy. Prettier and easier is their main design goals. Listen to Johan’s statements at about 1:30 in the video. Paradox is going downhill fast as far as wargamers are concerned.
