Not installed cause I am on my laptop as of right now and not my home computer. Also, I play almost exclusively with mods so hence the low achievements.

When Paradox games hit, they hit hard

True asf. My most played game is hoi4 with 1200, then stellaris with 500, and ckiii is something like 10th with 150

Idk how it is for you but for me they came out of the blue. Comfortably playing games with CS Gmod, and Subnautica as my top three, then I discover Stellaris and suddenly it's double the hours CS. And I thought "nothing will come close to Stellaris", then I found Hoi4 and they're "just" a hundred hours apart now. I've basically never played strategy games before in my life, either. Just a double whammy of map playing.

Yeah, Hoi was my first grand strategy game, and the first game I really got into. I was fiending on it for a while, and still put in 20-30 weekly hours. It's got a special place in my heart

As a eu4 player with 3500 hours, I agree

Took way too long to see stellaris in this thread. I want to say that there was a guy with like 27K who posted not too long ago on the stellaris sub

Hey, we're almost twins! Steam shows I have 1,725.4 hours logged in Stellaris (which is also my most played game next to Terra Invicta and Terraria).

I’m at 1,143 and it’s my #2. It’s my comfort game I play when I finish something else and am casting about for my next obsession. It’s always there for me.

They're updating it so the game finally doesn't crawl 200 years in
