I launched the game!

Well, is it any good?

I just started a game as Sweden. Can't say how overpowered it is yet.

Been playing a couple of hours, the game is very accessible and rather pretty (and stable so far). I'm spending most of my time making choices that I find interesting.

just played through the tutorial. Pretty nice. In true Italian fashion those Ethiopians didn't go down that easily.

-The tutorial itself was a bit light on the explaining but the tooltips seem decent enough, much will depend on it's linkage to wiki and how uptodate the info there is (and stays).
-Research has been brought back to more HOI2-level of manageability (but we knew that already). I'm sure modders will expand it swiftly so we can finally research Hitler's 1944 razor.
-Production is nice. set up a line and let it rip (or underperform :p), or you can micromanage it bit more. The limited amount of stuff to be built in a province should help prevent factory-spam.
-Messing around with your government might be fun, plenty of options as far as I could tell.

Pretty smooth gameplay. Barely scratched the surface in any case.

Happy birthday 

For future reference: set up Chrome Remote Desktop (or some other similar software), remote in and start the DL from work or wherever you are.  That way it'll be ready to go for you when you get home/done partying/etc.

Alternatively just play at work like I'm doing.

So how is the Pacific War going in HOI4? In HOI3 the Americans could ignore the Pacific islands and go straight for the Islands or East Asia. 

Has it changed?

How do I invade Malta as Italy? the mission tool tip says I need intel, but I have a bit fleet right next door!
