I really like the game. It is a deep complex game of a very strategic nature. They continually add features which often significantly change the game and requires changing your strategy.
My only complaint is the AI can't possibly compete with all the strategic choices that are made. New features just make the AI even less capable of competing.
Hearts of Iron IV is an outstanding World War II strategy game that covers all theaters of the war, from the Eastern Front and North Africa to the vast Pacific Theater. One of my favorite aspects is the game’s alternate historical paths: you can reform the Roman Empire, restore the British Empire, or revive the Russian Empire, among other possibilities. The game can feel overwhelming at first, with a steep learning curve, but I found that just diving in—even without fully understanding the mechanics—helped me gradually get the hang of it. And if you’re confused about the naval aspect, don’t worry—I’m still figuring it out myself!
Playing Hearts of Iron IV with friends adds even more excitement, as you can coordinate complex strategies or even compete against each other for world domination. While the game can be pricey, especially with all the DLCs, it’s well worth the investment. After clocking in over 1,000 hours, I’d say this game is a must-play for anyone who loves WWII and strategy games.
Thanks.
Great improvement over the last 8 years. Too bad most of it is locked behind $$$$$$$$.
its a fun ww2 game where you can also get mods i love it and hate it at the same time but one of my favs
I was playing Italy for the first time and I somehow lost against Ethiopia. Then France declared on me and I lost. Fun game in general.
This game is legit bullshit, tutorial level is basic at best, barely explains how to play the game, had to play it 5 fucking times to figure out how to play, several features are missed in the tutorial level, AI will always beat you practically no matter what, even when playing on easy mode, DO NOT BUY THIS
great game, bit of a grind but a lot of fun when it kicks off
It’s the game I’ve sunk more time into then I’d like to admit. It’s really fun the sound tracks to go with it are amazing. If you like ww2 stuff and you like strategy games you’ll be like me n love this.
This is an amazing game, what with the ability to play as any nation historically starting from 1936, or send them down a path of historical divergence. Very fun, but time-consuming. I recommend.
I've been in a world war that lasted 22 years and caused near a quarter of a billion military dead all because I (France) laughed at Switzerland's request for my section of the Alps
I hate this game with a burning passion. This game made me age 50 years, made my skin start to peel, and made me blind in one eye. I wish I could uninstall this game but the withdrawls are too strong.
I told myself I cant play this game anymore after 500 hours cause its addictive especially for WW2 enthusiast. I delete, I install, I delete, I install, I delete, I install. Now I'm at 2k hours..
very fun to play, lots of different outcomes that could happen
Best game i have ever played you can invade usa as malasia or rule europe as germany, Exited for the new expanision pack 1:
Recomend for people who like strategy games and war.
It has free multiplayer and is over all a great game
Note that it takes sometime too learn the mecanics hoewer they have added a tutorial for the basics.
After playing Hoi4 for a few hours i can say, This is a good game and yes, the workshop can be as bad as you think it is!
It'd very overwhelming to get into, but once u get over the learning curve it's [retty good. If your a fan of Civilization you'll probably love this game, although Civ is a lot more simple, this game is more realistic.
It took me about 400 hours to understand the most basic of things in this game, game after game getting my butt handed to me by the supposedly 'easy' ai
But eventually
You start to understand things
The systems start to click
You spend a bit too much time on youtube trying to find the perfect guide that matches the current update of the game and eventually, you complete your first world conquest sweaty, exhausted, and slightly miserable.
This is the greatest game I have ever played. I just wish I knew about it sooner.
A steep and initially exhausting learning curve, but stick with it. The rewards are amazing. I played as Argentina (with the Trial of Allegiance DLC) and had a blast.
Literally a blast, at first, when fascist Chile attacked me, a peaceful democratic country trying to mind its own business. (And I chose Argentina to try to stay out of the way of the bullies!) They now rue the day they crossed us. This was supposed to be only a trial run but turned into a full blown and satisfying campaign.
As I learned the game, I began to realize why it is so popular. You have to do the diligence, however, so be prepared for reading and video viewing. If and when you get there, I think you will enjoy Hearts of Iron IV.
great game in general mods make it so much better also just learned what the console commands are u can create weird senirios with them
Playing Hearts of Iron leaves you pondering, "Is this game steadily evolving?" Paradox Interactive’s Clausenwitz engine is well-regarded for its impressive potential—at least on paper. The challenge, however, lies in how that potential remains... untapped. While the engine technically supports multithreading, the developers chose a rather creative approach when implementing it, ensuring that multithreading is supported in theory but politely left unused in practice. The result? Your 12-core CPU becomes a high-end decoration piece, with one heroic core working tirelessly at 100%, while the others enjoy a well-deserved rest. In the early stages, the game flows smoothly, but as time passes, your computer graciously slows down, turning late-game battles into a thoughtful, cinematic experience at a deliberate pace. Even the most powerful rigs can’t avoid this elegant transformation. Fortunately, the newer Jomini engine used in Victoria 3 took a slightly different route—but that’s a pleasure reserved for another time.
Multiplayer offers its own unique flavor. Describing it as "stable" may be... ambitious. Every DLC launch is an opportunity for memorable surprises, with No Step Back marking an especially vibrant chapter in the game's journey—featuring frequent, if unexpected, interruptions. Since then, things have settled down a little, but the South America DLC added more layers of excitement by gently slowing things down and generously empowering some nations more than others. Each new expansion introduces delightful complexities, leaving players to discover whether they are managing armies or honing their spreadsheet skills.
The growing intricacy of the game is complemented by Paradox's carefully curated content release strategy. Rather than delivering the entire experience at once, Paradox provides an ongoing journey through expansions—encouraging players to gradually enhance their experience over time. Key gameplay elements are thoughtfully packaged into DLCs, making it easy to add just the right pieces to suit your preferences. However, those seeking the complete experience may find themselves embarking on a longer-than-expected adventure, with periodic opportunities to invest. What begins as a modest $40 purchase gracefully evolves into a rewarding, premium experience over time, unlocking new features and systems. Every expansion feels more like an invitation to engage with new mechanics than mere content, keeping the gameplay fresh and ever-evolving.
This well-intentioned balance between accessibility and complexity does raise some interesting questions for the community:
"So, who exactly is this game meant for?"
And perhaps Paradox would respond with a smile: "Full-core CPU usage is part of Victoria 3, a few crashes here and there keep things lively, and as for DLCs... well, fun is a journey, not a destination."
At first, I didn't want to like it. I don't enjoy the realities of war. I don't often think that violence is the answer to any dispute. But, in HOI4, I really do enjoy the brutality of a huge fascist fueled encirclement using an abundance of well fed 30 width thick boy divisions with too many guns.
The depth and complexity of play is steep and often rough to learn. At 10 hrs you realize you have no clue what just happened. At 25 hrs you have learned a couple things if you have been paying attention but you still have no clue why it happened. At 100 hrs you begin to understand your ignorance. Here at 265 hrs (at time of writing) you have learned a thing of two but still don't understand. Between a new save or country or mod or scenario never have it all figured out. Its fun.
The mod community is impressive. Many mods often become standard options for new games.
The true range and possibility for what you can accomplish or achieve is extensive.
Play as a small country, or play as a major superpower, you can accomplish many great things.
I highly recommend this game.
It grows on you with time.
Great game for anyone that likes history (especially WW2). A little less advanced economy than games similar to this but the game overall is really enjoyable
Mountainous learning curve.. I'm on 20 odd hours and still playing through the tutorial.
The scope of the game even without DLC is remarkable.
I'm 65 and unsure if I'll master the game before i go to the great gaming room in the sky, but hey this makes it fun.
Get it on sale btw.
I love this game! Unfortunately I want to make mods and I dont know how, so can you please add an ingame modmaker?
i recommend this game so much, Hearts of Iron is one of my favorite strategy games, even thought i don't understand how navy works.
Good game, around 20 DLCs too many, still going to get the next DLC as soon as it launches though
Great game for anyone that likes history (especially WW2). A little less advanced economy than games similar to this but the game overall is really enjoyable
Its a fun game but the base game is kinda mid and requires other dlcs. I recommend this game if you are willing to pay the subscription or buy the dlcs.
I had a lot of fun with this game since it came out in 2016, I've done just about every scenario I could think of, but $35 for an expansion pass to an 8 and a half year old game? That was my tipping point, it was fun while it lasted, but I cannot continue to support the ever increasing price of expansions Paradox pushes out that continue to give ever diminishing returns across all of their games, honestly not even excited for Europa 5 anymore either. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this money pit as well as all of the other PDX titles because smaller devs are continuing to create more cost friendly alternatives every year and are becoming more prominent than ever in the Grand Strategy niche.
It's good I just don't really see myself playing it for too long. The game is too simple and needs a more complicated navy system. pretty good. 7/0
At the current stage i wouldn't recommend this game. My main complaint is the abject supply system nonsense: back in the day supply issues could be solved by increasing infrastructure level and build more ports, but now the player also has to build railways connecting ports to supply nodes close to front lines that only provide enough supplies for relatively short incursions before having to halt and spend several months entrenched building more and more nodes, train lines and infrastructure in occupied territory.
The game is really complicated but it is not a bad game, it is just not for me or casual players in general. One improvement i suggest is updating the tutorial
Instructions unclear, still have no idea how to play game and life is effectively ruined.
Great strategy about world war 2 graphics realistic but I'd rather find a woman than learn how to play this
This game runs on unrefined and pure autism.
The base game is fun, the mods can be addicting.
Finding friends to play it with also makes for some wacky stuff.
Waking the tiger, Death or Dishonor, Together for victory. I didnt pay money for these to be put in the base game. Give me my fucking money back if its now free for all users, and lets talk about now that youve moved those DLC's into base game your next DLC fucks with Germany (waking the tiger) and Hungary (death of dishonor).
Fuck right off i spent money for these 2 factions in 2 separate DLC's that youve now made nul and void AND want me to pay AGAIN for them?
Give those that owned these previous DLC's somthing so our money is not down the drain instead of ripping people off.
20 Panzer Divisions w/low supply vs 1 South African untrained unequipped division in the UK. Who will win?
Game is well designed and has a lot of options for players. However, I dont advise it as a player of other paradox strategy games. High levels of complexity, to the point that you cant figure out how to win a basic war or simply be good without watching hours of videos.
Good game, but I am not a fan due to the games ridiculous difficult spike with war and pandering to the axis.
Nothing feels better than when you assign 6 division of reinforcements to one of your armies in an army group. The extra divisions cause one of your armies front line to expand and the other to contract, causing the entire force to shuffle along the line, leaving an opening in your front which Germany rushes into and you lose the war on the spot. Stupid broken game.
20$+ for each update is a joke, especially for a 67$ game with bare bones content for the base game. This game is only enjoyable with mods, like Kaiserreich that add much more than any DLC has for free. That's the only reason to buy it. Can't wait for this game to be 600$ dollars for all content like EU4.
its a very fun, detailed 3-D strategy game and it has the most sharp twists and turns spent hours playing. Very fun and addicting would reccomend
This game is hands down one of my favorite games of all time. It's a masterpiece. Be warned its a Paradox game, so it has a steep learning curve.
If you are interested in video games, and want to have many different experiences, do not play this game. HoI4 is the type of game that can take over your life if let out of hand, this game has one of the worst dlc-systems I had seen with features being locked behind paywalls, and if you chose to play the game with fan-made mods, then the base game becomes unplayable in comparison.
While I had a good times playing this game, and there's a likely chance I will come back to it, I cannot in good faith recommend this game to an average gamer.
This game is wishfull thinking trap for people who do not agree with the direction of the world today. 2100+ hours of daydreaming a better world that will never come.
Highly recommend Millenium Dawn Mod tough.
this is a cool game because how difficult it is to understand, but once your starting to understand it, its very fun. but i still don't know how the navy works
This game is fun ! If you like games about war and strategy this game is for you!
game is addicting af and once you start to understand the game (except navy, fuck the navy) the game becomes really fun
vanilla hoi4 sucks tho playing modded hoi4 like Kaiserreich, The New Order, Old World Blues and more is the REAL experience
It's too difficult, so I don't really recommend it if you can't with the difficulty. :/
It's obviously not for me, so I do recommend it if you want something difficult, or if you can understand it.
Also, paid dlc, the terror of my existence. STOP PUTTING STUFF THAT SHOULD BE FREE AS PAID, PARADOX, PLEASE.
Richard "Dick" Ira Bong (September 24, 1920 – August 6, 1945) was a United States Army Air Forces major and Medal of Honor recipient in World War II. He was one of the most decorated American fighter pilots and the country's top flying ace in the war, credited with shooting down 40 Japanese aircraft, all with the Lockheed P-38 Lightning.
My favorite plane
Stupid game, I play as a neutral unaligned UK, two days before communist Finland that joined the Axis capitulates, they randomly declare war on me, and call the entire world in a war against me, despite this I hold my ground, nonetheless I capitulates and lose all my colonial holdings, despite losing no land on mainland England. Dumb "balancing", makes no sense.
