The games I always come back playing are Xcom2 and Hoi4. Hearts of Iron 4 is an amazing game in my eyes. I'm a huge history buff, so, this game is kind of for me. But it's not just that, it's entertaining as all hell. I've had so many memorable moments in this game and will never forget them. So many memes; like my boi ALF LANDON!!!!!!

JUST LOOK AT HOW MANY HOURS I HAVE IN THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JESUS CHRIST!!!!
What makes me love this game is its mods; I love them all, for the most part at least. Man, that’s also how I feel about Xcom 2.
10/10 MADE TOO MUCH LOVE AND MEMORIES!

This next section is about the mod Kaiserreich.

This part of the review doesn’t really have anything to do with the base game. I just really want to talk about Kaiserreich. If you want to know stuff about the base game, then this section isn’t for you.



I personally think that Kaiserreich is one of the greatest mods of all time. In fact, it’s one of the most thought out mods of all time.
This mod asks the question: “What if Germany had won ww1?”
This is an alternate history mod, it has nothing to do with our own timeline.

PROS:
- Gameplay: the gameplay is addicting because the developers try to add new gameplay mechanics. The focus trees are well thought out and entertaining to use; some of them are really long (which I love).
- Detail: The detail in this mod is amazing. I don’t mean the graphics, I mean the world of Kaiserreich. This mod has its own lore and history. The events in this mod are completely original and new. But, that’s not why I love them: I love them because they’re not always about war. For example, there's an event about how Winston Churchill writes a book called, “Our Finest Hour;” it’s about if the allies won ww1 and everyone thinks he’s an idiot. Also, because of that one event, some other modders made a mod called Fuhrerreich; it's about what if the allies won world war 1 through the kaiserreich universe’s eyes. That’s also an interesting mod as well, but I'm getting off topic.
They even make their own trailers for the countries you can play as in the mod. This series is called the World Of Kaiserreich. These trailers always gets me pumped up. When the Russian trailer comes out, I will be jlzzing my pants.

How I even discovered Kaiserreich could not have gone any better. I was at a convention with some of my friends, keep in mind that I was just getting into and just purchased Hoi4, one of my friends told me to play Kaiserreich. The only thing he told me was that it was an alternate history mod. So, I go on the steam workshop and I browsed for Kaiserreich. The only thing they were promoting were two videos; the two videos, at the time, were about Britain and Austria-Hungary. I watched the British video and I was fu cking blown away; I installed it immediately and played as Britain. Then, I got gang r@ped by most of the nations of the world.
Did I mention this mod can be hard as fu ck?
They recently released a new video about the American Civil War; it’s the second part of the series.
Here are some videos that could possible interest you:

I would say Kaiserreich gets a strong 9 out of 10 for me. I don’t have any problems with Kaiserreich, I honestly think it’s better than the base game.
My favorite countries to play as are:
Russia: SO MANY OPTIONS!!! But for me, I love restoring the Tzar back into power.
America: That civil war is awesome man. I love playing as MacArthur and I also love playing as the American Union State.
Brazil: All I have to say is C O M E T O B R A Z I L !!!!

GO PLAY KAISERREICH!!!!
