I've mostly played EU4 but recently have discovered the dlc is much cheaper than expected^[For legal porpoises I will not specify how much cheaper] and it's been like 3 years since I last played^[this footnote is ornamental].

Viccy 3 and crusader kings 3 weren't out last time.

So which is the best atm to lose time in?

edit: thanks for the recs. Ck3 seems to slap now

Victoria 3 would probably be the best if they didn't insist in the terrible war system it has (it might have been improved, but being forced to automate it is boring to me)

EU IV is in a good spot since it isn't getting anymore updates, but it suffers from being an old game.

CK3 is alright as a character simulator but the GS bit is lacking.

Stellaris has overhauled everything again so it's a mess currently.

HoI4 is for roleplaying your favorite ideological strawman, not much else.
