I have almost 5k hours in Victoria 2 and over 1000 in CK2. I can safely say no other grand strategy games are as good as these two>Have you played anyNo and I'm yet to see a reason to
Hoi2 was pretty goodEu2 was pretty goodEu4 was good for a couple years before it got ran into the groundImperator is good, too
>>2367710HOI4 is better because it has better combat.
Me too, at least in a spiritual sense. I am an absolute EXPERT at Victoria 2. I can do the hardest challenges in that game.have a very deep understanding of the game's systems. I also was obsessed with having the hardest start possible in Crusader Cucks 2. I gave myself all of the negative traits and only increased my char's health, so he wouldn't die immediately. I edited the game files, so I could give him even worse traits. Sadly they usually disappear after a single generation, so it's just a delayed count start with a randomly generated character, who has the harelip trait, instead of every single negative genetic trait in existence.But there is something missing, anon. You need to complete the trifecta. It's time to master Hearts of Iron 3. I can win as Germany in the Götterdämmerung scenario on very hard. I can win, even if I teleport all my units back to Berlin at game start, so that the allies can take France. I can play as Communist China and win the Chinese Civil War, while starting out in a war with all other Chinese countries.

>>2367710>1000 in CK2how?its unironically just playing dollhouse gets stale after like 8 hours
Just succeeded. You can all go fuck yourselves
>>2370975CK2 is less like a dollhouse and more like a personnel management game crossed with an RPG and a grand strategy game. I still maintain it's one of the GOATsCK3 is more of a dollhouse game, where you play through wall-of-text tumblr style adventures, and the strategy stuff mostly plays itself so long as you engage with enough dollhouse levelling-up. I stopped playing before any DLCs came out, some new stuff sounds appealing from a role-play perspective (landless/Chinese bureaucracy), and superficially the Byzantine/Chinese systems go to places CK2 never could, but they're still behind where CK2 was 6 years into its life cycle
