HoI2 is a game that offers much more than other games of its genere. For first looks in the screenshots it may look old , but until you play it , you didnt see anything. It almost covers all aspects of WWII like Naval ships , Marine infantry , Tanks , Industries , planes and etc. It also get much depth to the the whole story. The game has a system to get new units. You make a company of your country work to research new technologies , and if you unlock some new ones you will have acsess to new and better units. And the there are lots of types from the Artillery used in WWI to Semi-Modern Arrtillery.
I played alot with the Germans and I know a lot about them and that I noticed is that you can unlock ceartain units that didn't participate in the War but only where prototypes like the H-Class battleship or the Panzer VIII 'Maus' or the Type XXIII U-Boat , so its pretty cool. It really offers endless content to all major nations.
The main campaign starting from 1937 offers you much time almost 40 hours to complete it , unless you get beaten too soon.
Also , it has almost all the Nations that WWII had in real life , many that only have 2-7 cities that can be easily crushed to the massive ones for example the UK that covers all parts fo the world.
Although it got a lot of content to play with , it wont let you use it as you wish , if you play with the Germans you cant do stuff that the germans didnt do for example teaming up with the USA to crush the world and stuff like that but you have to walk with the number of events that pop out from month to another like invading Poland.
But , the game would be good only if the game had more visuals like different visuals for different tanks and different visuals for different ships etc , and the sound is the same , they arent that much good exept for the music that is pretty good. Bugs are pretty rare in the game , I only noticed 1 or 2 in the whole time I played , so over all , its a buge board game like game that offers tons of content and worth the buy for WWII fans or who wants to spend his weakends doing something.
