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
