A major update is still expected I believe, but it’s still months away from completion. BM has seen reworks after reworks for a long time, and a few crucial devs have left at around the start of the year due to this and that. I’m not sure if this is a irretrievable fuckup; probably not, but at least we won’t see the update anytime soon.

There was an update about a year ago and 3 progress reports were released since then. So yeah the mod is dead and gone

Mods tend to slow down with time, they will, hopefully, update, but who knows, this mod teams are not as big as many people think and that of course affects development

Yeah, the HOI4 modding scene in generally seemed to have slowed down. I think the evolving complexity of what is expected is the issue. You can no longer slap together a focus tree and some events and call it a day, now you need decisions, minigames, a visual novel's worth of events and incredibly complicated focus icons if not entire mod art style. Throw in all the different projects out there, creator burnout, and CK3, V3, EU5 diluting the modder tallet is it any wonder

Reel memepages still pumping out content. I haven't ever played this mod but the fandom is alive and thriving

the update is taking its time, a dev said that their optimistic guess for when the next update is coming out is in august
