@@TheoneanduniqueAubergine8622there has been an active Rework for Austria and her constituencies for a long time now. There is a confirmed PR in the works, but it's unclear how much work has actually been done. The devs still haven't decided if Slovakia will get a focus tree for example. Doesn't help that the lead dev is apparently very tight-lipped about decisions to the rest of the team.
long being a natpop now was totally taken normally by the subreddit and totally didn't cause a civil war with god knows how many extremely long, well researched posts arguing both for and against natpop long only for the devs to more or less ignore the entire thing.
@@janstraka8674There should be some rule of the internet like “the more looked-down-on a fandom is: the more dedicated their creation will be” The amount of hard work I see from creepypasta fans, furries, bronies etc etc is horrifying
Initially I hated it, but after a few tries I came around. So on my THIRD playthru, disabling the dumb card game and studying how to balance the politics, this focus tree is in-fact, quite awesome, well-made, and lengthy. My only remaining complaint is the shear amount of pop-up events gets ANNOYING.
The thing I dislike the most about the germany rework is that the mitteleuropa time between elections is too long and also feels like I was just sitting around after a while just waiting for 1940 or something to role around to be able to do the war with France focus. Mainly because I got into a war with the Entente by 1938 thanks to Two Sicilies.
For those who don’t know, Kurt von Shliecer (I can’t spell his name) played a decent role in bringing Hitler to power by manipulating Germany’s politics as chancellor of the reichstag. This ultimately backfired as Hitler grew too powerful for him to control. He was assassinated on the Night of the long knives in 1934.
Btw, the Mitteleuropa stuff is pretty decent but especially if you go authoritarian Mitteleuropa, since you can steal some of everyone's civs and also make the generic buffs from Mitteleuropa better
Man I was in high school when HoI4 Kaiserriech first came out, and now I've been out of college for over 2. Its been a long time since I gave up hope they'd actually update the german focus tree. Guess its finally time to boot it up again and hope the american civil war is slightly more balanced so the CSA doesn't win literally every time I don't delete all their troops to start the American Civil War
At 2:35 College points out that this Schleicher-guy is suspicious due to his mustache. Funnily enough his name means something like "the dude who is sneaking around". So yeah, I think we can close this case: Obviously hes the villian.
Going from Kaiserredux to Kaiserreich is crazy because in Reich everyone is actually limited and not OP as hell. Also the card game and party balance mechanics toook a bit of getting used to
Italy got a little focus tree update too this patch I think. So can you explore it a bit. I suggest Socialist Italy because there are a familiar bald man wattifor you.

Well that is my point. I very much so find it strange that people always accuse us of bias without even having ever talked to us in the first place, we're on the KR discord, if you think we're biased then say so there instead of making baseless claims@@mksushi5754

Luckily most of the time it’s worth it
