Maalesef HOI4 Discord moderatörünüzü hala savunabildiğiniz için bir daha Paradox oyunları almayacağım ve sizi desteklemeyeceğim. “Merhaba, Hearts of Iron IV moderasyon ekibiyle iletişime geçtiğiniz için teşekkür ederiz! Atatürk; tıpkı Karl Marx gibi, modern siyasetle yakından ilişkili, kutuplaştırıcı ve tartışmalı bir tarihi figür olması nedeniyle yasaklanmıştır. Endişelerinizi ve sorularınızı duymaktan memnuniyet duyarız; geri bildirimleriniz bizim için değerlidir.”

When i bought this game it's an mild strategy game i love to play but it got progressively worse after "No One Step Back" dlc. Its just simulation slop, UI madness and worst of all content is vague. This game is just an overpriced garbage, I wouldn't bought it at this time with that price. We really shouldn't feed Corporates like this. Even making an tank origami with your money rather than buting this game will give you more fun.
