They better not fuck it up like they did 3
3 was restrictive, counter-intuitive and unnecessarily complicated while only providing any real fun to the great powers. 2 was really sandboxy and it was fun trying to conquer the world as a small nation, also the mods and modded versions like Darkest Hour were really good.

Darkest Hour is still the best HoI game. Easy to learn, hard to master, and has a shitload of awesome mods from World War I to Fallout.
