Hearts of iron 3 should i buy

Edit: Also, what are some popular mods? Anything on the scale of Pop Demand Mod for Vicky 2? Cpt Crash Colonel 15 Badges. Mar 28, 1. A little late to the game, but sure, why not?

You are apparently a gamer--with some hours to game, so why not get the best WW II grand strategy game on the market? The game may not be perfect like??? After you are comfortable with the vanilla game, check out the mods--there is some fantastic work done. I'm sure HoI 4 will be a great game too so I will own both. HoI 3 is dirt cheap right now. Just when 4 will be ready is anybody's guess--it is months away. So, it all comes down to your interest in the era. If you have much at all, then 3 is a near must.

Important: Buy the whole set including TFH. It's not as interesting to me as the Victorian period, but I'm kind of burned out on Vicky 2. Also, considering To End All Wars or this, but you input is much appreciated.

I really want some advice because I really want to buy one currently I'm leaning a bit more to 4 and most people recommend it because they say that 3 is too complex. I am worried though that 4 could be too lame and the same for everything. So pls leave your opinion and say wich you would recommend me too buy. BTW I am new to paradox games and just these games in general.

However it can be very frustating at times. Aircraft and navies can be a real pain the ass to use due to all the micro. Island warfare is a nightmare also. If you don't mind micro though, HOI 3 gives you a lot more control over the details of your nation. Franchise: Hearts of Iron. Share Embed. Read Critic Reviews. Add to Cart. Bundle info.
