Oct. 2025
Who is this game for? For fans of Grand Strategy and map-painting who prefer a simplified, accessible scale over the complexity of titles like Crusader Kings or Hearts of Iron. This is for players who don't mind a steep learning curve with little guidance, and those who cherish the sheer joy of global conquest. THE GOOD (Pros): Immense Scope & Timeframe: You can jump in from the Age of Civilization right up to a futuristic setting. The sheer volume of scenarios and civilizations is unmatched at this price point. The New Battle System: The shift to a more RTS (Real-Time Strategy) combat model, rather than simple turn-based movement, adds a much-needed layer of tactical depth to front-line engagements. Detailed Map and Provinces: With over 13,000 provinces (on the largest map), the level of detail is a massive step up from AoH2, allowing for hyper-granular control over your borders. Customization Power: The robust editor lets you create any scenario, map, or history you can imagine. This feature guarantees endless replayability, driven entirely by the community. THE BAD (Cons): Steep, Unfriendly Learning Curve: The game throws you into the deep end without a proper tutorial. Many vital mechanics are left unexplained, leaving new players frustrated early on. Missing Diplomacy Features: Several key diplomatic options from AoH2, such as proper trading, ultimatums, and supporting rebellions, are either gone or significantly stripped down, making international relations feel shallow. Still a Bit Janky: Despite the updates, the game can be prone to bugs, occasional crashes, and clunky UI elements, especially when managing huge empires of 500+ provinces. "HoI4 for Noobs" Vibe (Too Simple): While accessible, it lacks the deep internal mechanics (like culture, detailed politics, and internal management) that keep Paradox games engaging for thousands of hours. Final Verdict Age of History III is a triumphant, yet flawed, continuation of the series. It's an undeniable upgrade in scale and visual quality, providing a massive, engaging sandbox for you to paint the globe your color. It offers the satisfying "map-painting" fix without requiring a three-hour tutorial video. However, the lack of robust diplomacy and the steep learning barrier stop it from achieving true 'Grand Strategy' greatness. If you are a veteran of the series, buy it—you'll love the improvements. If you are new to the genre, be ready for a grind, but you will find a deeply rewarding and time-sinking experience.

i really like this game, but, criticism and suggestions for it comes easier to me; - we need ultimatums back, for sure - declaring wars shouldn't decrease neighbouring countries' opinion of you THAT much - you should be able to call vassal states in your wars by default - you should be able to make any vassal anywhere by default (or atleast toggleable in the base game) - if you control both sides of a strait, like the strait of gibraltar, i think it would be interesting if you could close it off for other nations (or something like that) - you should be able to buy provinces from other nations - st pierre et miquelon isn't in the game, please add it - for larger nations, capitulation score should be modified so it relies on factors like population of occupied provinces & stuff, and if it is, it needs to be increased, because fighting countries like russia takes so damn long that's about it, thanks

STFU about being mad about the AI portraits. One sole Polish guy made a strategy game comparable to a paradox game, great game made by small indie dev.
