I'm expecting at least 5 mods shortly after launch that all awkwardly try to add money back in to the game as a resource, and all inadvertently break the game because it turns out most of the HoI community doesn't understand what a game is.

Ask me about running my country straight into the ground every time I play EU4 multiplayer.
Probably some mod that has 500 different waffen SS division events while giving Germany insane technology boosts to " reflect history".

Also USA has always been my favorite to play in HoI, great to see them getting some awesome trees.

I feel like I should do a USA play-through for 3. I think I'll need to do a custom start though mostly so I can re-do the army relatively quickly in terms of organization, instead of tediously shipping all my garrisons back home to upgrade and whatnot...

Yeah, I'm really looking forwards to playing the US myself. I've got a group of friends set up to play HoI 4 multiplayer when it comes out, and for some reason I'm really looking forward to crippling the others with embargoes, especially Japan and Germany who will be short of resources to start with anyway.

What the gently caress is even going on here? They're like warship transformers? Except instead of vehicles transforming into robots they transform into anime doll girls?

e: somehow i managed to type "troubles" instead of "robots"..

e2: What's the audience here? People who would like to gently caress warships? Because it just makes no goddamn sense.

Every time I read a post on the HoI forums about how they NEED to get the Maginot Line development in '36 right or how they can't understand why the game wouldn't simulate the Chaco War of 1932 well, I can only imagine KC Green's Anime Club comics :(

The Great Depression didn't go away in 1940. American free market capitalism had totally failed during this era and nothing worked to fix it. People were literally starving to death and the boom-bust cycle had been a steady 10 years since the foundation of the United States. Hoover's hogs and all that jazz. The US was forced to seek out wars to give their economy a boost, primarily by destroying the industrial base of all their competitors.

It's "anthropomorphization" -- turning something that's not a human into some kind of cute humanoid mascot representation. It's "a thing" in Japan. The audience consists of 1) anime pervs, 2) Japanese nationalists and 3) anime pervs who are also Japanese nationalists.

It doesn't stop there: your shipgirl can get damaged in battle, and her card art/icon thingy gets its (already-minimal) clothing progressively more torn as she gets more damaged.

Where is the anime about the rape of nanking and the brutal rear end poo poo the ija did to chinese civilians or pow's? All turned into pre-pubescent schoolgirls of course "tee-hee I need to sharpen my bayonet on this baby, oops my boobie popped out".

How is this poo poo even legal? Wouldn't german government shut this poo poo down if it was released there?

Probably, but Germany has, by and large dealt with its WW2 legacy with dignity, both on a governmental and individual level. Japan, ehh.
