Cheat their ass off in HOI4/Kaiserreich just to see the map go red?
I’m not megamind enough to “get” grand strategy, especially Paradox games. I just like to bump production to 10,000% and form the United Socialist South American States.

Crusader Kings is probably the simplest and easiest to get into. Combat is literally have more soldiers than the enemy stack (for all the different unit types lol). Although in CK3 they removed primogeniture until the end of the game which makes it super difficult to keep your empire intact after your death.
CK3 is definitely more of a roleplaying game with that change, where they discourage blobbing (@SovereignState@lemmygrad.ml to reply to your comment as well). You can’t really go wrong in CK3, there’s always stuff happening that makes for an interesting game.
I think CK2 is quite a bit more difficult than HOI4 because its very RNG based, although CK3 I may agree is probably easier because its dumbed down a lot. Less focus on skilled strategy and more on personal roleplay. Not my cup of tea, but yes probably quite simple. I still wouldn’t say CK2 is easier than HOI4, there’s just a whole lot of systems and a whole lot of RNG.
Really? I struggle with HOI4 because I’ve never looked at the meta, but I have no problems in CK2 – and CK3 is even easier barring the primogeniture decision paradox made.
I’d say so, for a beginner the sheer amount of luck takes away control from the player, in Hoi4 you have the option to railroad the AI to always do the same things every time, allowing you to better learn the game and react accordingly, as an example.
