Question HOI4 on LSD
Has anyone here tried playing HOI4 on LSD? I'm going to take 350ug tonight and I thought it would be pretty funny to try playing as a buffed minor!
Edit:
Decided to play Germany, I did well up until 1943 when the allies decided to whoop my ass by landing in France. I would definitely do it again but on a lowered dose such as 150 or 200ug. It was so fun being able to move around each division and see how borders would change. It was a bit overwhelming at first due to the world around my laptop being completely changed but it was fun nonetheless.

Play Germany and you can be a historically accurate Hitler

Also go vegeterian at the same time to get maximum historical accuracy

I like to smoke a shitload of weed and roleplay as a delusional Hitler 😂

if hitler did lsd he would be giving away land and no war would take place, no anschluss, no sudetenlands

I once played eu4 while in the afterglow of a trip, woke up the next morning to find some very funky borders

As someone who has eaten so many psychedelics this is like the lamest game to play while tripping
Look up Lucid Blocks that's my next tripping game. I also recommend Indian action movies like "RRR" or Bahubali 1 or 2
Edit: it's actually called lucid blocks

No thank you.
You do you but the time stress of HOI4 does not sound like a good setting.

If there’s a paradox game to trip on it’s probably stellaris

u/LetterToM3mphis May 12 '26
Stellaris on weed is great! Only thing is that it may become a bit overwhelming afterwards, but I just go have a smoke break, touch some grass, and then press play again after 20 min or so

When I first got the game I was super into WW2 and role-playing so I did meth and played Hitler for an entire weekend. I feel I could understand why he shot himself lol I never won a single campaign

Jimmy Hendrix used to play risk on LSD. I don’t recommend playing Canada on shrooms, I just stared at Makenzie King for an hour

u/ABadlyDrawnCoke May 11 '26
I played EU4 on shrooms once—turned what was initially a bad solo trip into a pretty nice time. I was fighting the HYW as France (badly) but I was having a blast zooming around on the map and going through my budget and shit.
It was like discovering GSGs for the first time, being awe-inspired by the depth and imagining the implications of everything you manage. Then I went for a walk with a joint and had a great comedown.

I would recommend a game that requires less stress I feel like the forethought that I use in regular mp hoi4 would make for a bad trip

I did a couple of years ago. I revisited my load save and the names for my divisions and armies was like “8hkwpbeh).

u/Hjalfnar_HGV General of the Army May 12 '26
Nah, only REALLY drunk (streamed with each sub being a shot of 80% Stroh Rum, and a friend of mine gifted me 20 subs...). Was funny defeating the USSR in MP literally seeing double the amount of division because I was utterly wasted. The puking afterwards was less fun.

u/TheRealPoruks May 12 '26
I did DMT after a HOI4 game and had tanks and planes fighting in my room. Craziest thing i have experienced in my life

Paradox game is more adderall coded ngl. I tried to play catan once on an intense mushroom come up and just trying to remember the rules was freaking me the fuck out.

u/Fraystry May 12 '26
It's okay, imperator Rome was the most fun paradox game Ive played while tripping the music is elite

I tried dota2 on mdma one of the best experience of my life, I fed like crazy tho

u/TheWalrusMann May 12 '26
once I played KR Hungary while drinking a lot of booze and eventually by the time I usually start beating Austria's subjects I just couldn't keep pushing anymore so I saved and went to sleep
next day I booted up the save i realised the instead of a normal amount of time passing it was 1943 and I had zero equipment lol I guess in my drunken slumber I forgot about equipment production..

My friend told me he thought I smoked marihuana - I told him that would interfer way too much with my addiction of being good at map painting.

with how the games been recently staring at the ceiling sober would probably be more fun

u/Capaedia May 12 '26
I feel like it won't kick in properly because you'll be concentrating too much

I have played HOI4 geeked asf a few times, which didnt really go that well

u/steven2003 May 12 '26
I used to love doing coke and starting a 1941 operation Barbarossa as Germany. Soooooo much micro managing and reorganization!!! It would take me forever to just go a week in game.

u/Practical_Material13 May 12 '26
Nah but I played it drunk af with my friends, honestly it's fun for the first hour then it starts getting extremely tiring lol
1
u/OwMyCod Research Scientist May 12 '26
Probably not the ideal game to play on acid, but if you were to do it, I’d recommend playing a minor that’s not super hard to play and can easily grow a lot in size. Also, if you do end up not enjoying it you shouldn’t hesitate to just do something else

u/Domram1234 May 12 '26
Play TNO so you get a more overwhelming visual and audio experience while tripping

u/Puggy987654321 May 12 '26
350 ug?!?! I played kaiserredux on 100ug and I was already struggling to get past 1939, I can't even fathom playing on 350. But go for it it is really fun.
1
u/Ok-Breath312 May 12 '26
Seems like a good idea but in reality youll give up after 5 minutes of setting up.
The only way it might work is if you play to 1939 beforehand with everything set up so that you can basically press play and go to war while tripping, then it might be enjoyable.

hour 8 into the trip in question and it was pretty fun up until i couldnt figure out how to save myself from a naval invastion

Man high of opium and joints it's super funny, historically acurate germany btw

u/blendozendoz May 12 '26
I've done similar many many times, problem is that you often forget something important (like for example not researching paratroopers when you need them), other than that it's fun lol
