Plagued /r/TNOmod and the Reddit HOI4 modding community - When a subreddit for a video game mod turns to utter insanity

Good news, TNO bros. After a whole year without any substantial updates of pretty much any kind, you can rest easy that our devs will be bringing you lamppost GUIs for one single presidency or something, I guess.

Why couldn't they just use some random old street photo from the 1960s? Not everything has to be over saturated with that UI.

I can't even tell if it's a shitpost anymore. Does anyone have that fake Danish GUI that was like focusing on individual family members? It looks like that.

Functionally, there is no real advantage and it's absolutely excessive, though the whole addition of a lamppost minigame is by itself excessive as shit. It will take up a shit ton of space and we already know how cluttered TNO GUIs can be, especially when they have to vacate the decisions tab and just end up somewhere.

Aesthetically, honestly, it's overdesigned. The perspective is off, the little guy looks memey and it isn't representative of what's really going on with this urbanisation policy.

I really just don't see the point. Really, really don't.

Hilarious shit. https://i.redd.it/guf2gcgspj071.png

They haven't updated in a long time either. Supposedly, things were going to go fast after the Shukshin update, but I can't remember the last time I saw a Tukhachevsky teaser. They're also called "Brave New World" now that they merged with the Ma Mod thingie.

For a mod that is already a lot of waiting around for events to pop-up why would you think its a good idea adding more dumb shit to it that will just slow it down? Its like they read criticism about there not being stuff to do in the downtime and instead of trying to solve that problem by cutting bloat to get the game run quicker they thought adding a dumb mini-game would be the solution.
 
Since this thread is kind of for the HOI4 community as a whole, here is some recent arguing between HOI4 Youtubers on Twitter that stems from the Roe vs Wade ruling in the USA:

Late as fuck but I'll write it anyway

ISP is slimy sellout, the best example being Stellaris - he multiple times mentioned that he fuckin hates that game, he did one and only video on it and never touched it again because how bad he thought it was. Well, thought, because all it took for him to declare it "Greatest Strategy Game" was Paradox sharing some shekels.

Bo has gigantic ego, and I mean lolcow tier gigantic - all you need to draw this conclusion is to watch some of his videos/streams and hear the way he talks for a while. He can act really bossy during streams too, to the point I'm certain he had some crazy off-screen chimpouts at his allies being bad at least once.

Say whatever you want about Mountain General, but at least he sticks to his guns and says outloud what he thinks, unlike practically all Paradox advertisers jewtubers.

Edit: spelling

The more you'd think about it the more sillier it is. "What kind of lamppost at the corner of this block should we have" in a gran strategy globe game. Next they will have a Burger King french fry minigame "What kind of fries should Burger King have? Should it be regular fries, thick sweet potatoes fries, waffle fries, or curly fries? The future of America is dependent on it!"

I find it hard to be particularly annoyed at people who sellout for sponsorships because its all part of the hussle, I imagine ISP makes some good money from the PX sponsorships and he's already been in the doghouse with Paradox before so fuck it go ahead and sellout.

I can say without a shred of irony or abuse of the term that this is autistic behavior. Instead of making shit that's compelling they're making shit that only a literal autist could enjoy
 
Speaking of mods, anyone get recommended teasers for a mod called "extremis ultimis"? (i legit think their subtitle was "death of democracy"), and it's not even red flood of being insane for funni, IT JUST FUCKING GLOWS. I'll bet a amount of money to say that dev team has trannies or federal agents on their discord. Never before have I seen a hoi4 mod that just screams "glownigger"

2ACW larp shit.
also the guy that posts the teaser super events, as a quick tangent, posted superevents for another mod (something about tech advancing forwards faster than OTL, and no its not Enteral Golden Dawn)

same shit with a 2ACW but the last "unifier" got me thinking

Maybe I'm just schizoposting, but seeing any shit like that even if its a "joke" in any HOI4 modding scene sets off major red flags

also lmao using a Nick Fuentes quote for your super event.
I could just be MATI due to it seems like every HOI4 mod now has a 2ACW and almost all of them are for the devs wanting to LARP, the effects of Kaiserreich on the modding scene have been a disaster
 
I don't think it glows in the dark it seems more like a successor to the schizo shit in KX and Red Flood, though the last time I kept up with it was when the main Dev left the team months ago so maybe it's had a troon infiltration since then.
