Gameplay: press button, wait two months, press another button Lore: you just sentenced an entire ethnic group to death

Gameplay: press a button, take a shower, press another button, get married Lore: homeboy you just sentenced 4500 kids to be sliced in half because Himmler was feeling cute today

Gameplay should be sitting at a screen, doing literally nothing but pressing focuses for 20 years.

“Himmler what are you doing in burgundy?🤨” “A little bit of trolling mein fuhrer”

Gameplay: Simping for Gus or Yockey. Lore: *17% of the world’s population have all died fates worse than death*

It becomes even more creepy when you know that this is the melody of "The Red Army is the strongest!"

A terrifying AU Timeline where the god have forsaken it's own creation due to sheer horrors it's creation have made and committed.

Gameplay: *Falls asleep* Lore: *There is no hope beneath the Black Sun*

Hilter: HIMMLER, WHY THE F*CK IS THE SUN BLACK?! Himmler: Just some trolling, mein führer

tfw when TNO’s lore is so fucked that the Nazis are seen as moderates by some of the in game leaders

Gameplay: Pictures with photos, buttons, and descriptions. Lore: "If you were to look at your parents right now, would they still recognize the child they nurtured all those years ago? If you were to stare at the devil, could you blame him for all the things you've done? If you were to stare at the angels, would you be able to comfort their cries despite you being the reason for their tears? If you were to meet the people you've wronged in the past, could you explain as to why you had to do what you did? If you were to talk to the old you from yester years, would he deny what he would become or would he hate you for what you are?"

That depressed low-key "the red army is the strongest" made me feel that even deeper than the usual Burgundian lullaby

The theme brings shivers down my spine. I recognize it, it's one of the sounds associated with Hoi4, but this rendition, something about it always makes my hairs stand up every time...

TNO lore: 💀 TNO lore with custom rules: 😎 TNO gameplay:🗿

The event when you take Heydrichs capital where the SS force people to walk in front of the tanks haunts me to this day

Gameplay: click focus, wait, do some decisions, repeat Lore: _How can you still sleep at night, you monster?_

Even without the nuclear ending, this would probably be the darkest period in human history.

Most scary part is that whatever happens there, CIA is allways good guy there.

Ten easy steps of becoming a TNO fan: Step 1 - Playing a cursed country Step 2 - Witnessing and enacting crimes against humanity Step 3 - Shivering in cold terror Step 4 - Playing a wholesome country/path to wash away the horrors Step 5 - Succeeding and making the world a slightly better place Step 6 - Playing more nice countries Step 7 - You are getting bored Step 8 - You decide to give the cursed nations one more go Step 9 - Their paths are way more interesting Step 10 - Your curiosity and fascination overwhelm your morals. You are no longer bothered by the unspeakable atrocities. Congratulations! You are now based (and probably messed up).

Gameplay: click a focus, wait 5 mins, research a gun, click another focus and research and wait another 5 mins Lore: "Europe has been reduced to nothing but slaves and puppets to the Reich, Poland is lost, probably forever in history"

People who didn’t read the lore when reunifying Russia under the Holy Russian Empire: 😀 People who did: 💀

it would be cool to make an analog horror based on TNO lore

Press focus button 20 times while occasionally getting 2 paragraph flavor text about how Uberreichstengrupperlieftefuhrermenster Hermann Graft died due to complications regarding his testicular cancer

There’s some good lore. Russia can be quite hopeful a lot of the time.

The New Order gameplay: lore The New Order lore: lore

gameplay: sit for an hour after prssing 2 buttons to only get a wall of text you probably wont read only to repeat it the next hour lore: idfk i did not read the wall of text i think you started 12 civil wars

Reading TNO lore makes me feel like we live in the best timeline and God truly exists.

0:22 - “No hope under…” the Black Sun

Me: clicks button because of it's bonuses it gives. In-game lore: I just sentenced an entire enthic group to be rounded up and killed because why not.

You know, this is what it feels like to be the leader irl I think. Moving pawns, and looking down at a map. Odd feeling

Currently playing as Himmler's Burgundy, the Greatest Gamers' State of all time!

Some people : DEFCON is the most depressing nuclear war simulator Bro you ever played TNO ?

Unrealistic. At least 69 more hours should've been spent reading events. 4/10.

The more depressive alternative timeline than I have seen, that the more the game progresses everything becomes easier dark, yet the spark of hope is not extinguished.

Gameplay: Trying to conquer the world with less than 100 mouse clicks Lore: Welp, i guess Alexei was not alive the whole time. Oopsie

Me blasting through pages of lore and killing entire ethnic groups in order to get -5.0 consumer goods

This is probably the only game that actually gives you the feeling of what it's like to be Paul Atreidtes.

Even scarier is that this does not count the cursed gamer shit that happens with South America, Africa, or Asia. (Yes I know for the Asia content that Kishi, Devi, and the BEEF all got cut and Long Yun is more tame, but the thought of the IJA going "fuck it" and couping Tokyo, Hirohito completely snapping, or Long Yun's attempt at being the Chinese Simon Bolivar resulting in a nuclear apocalypse is still pretty horrifying. That's not counting the likelihood of Velimir or Gumilyov barging in, Yazov getting everyone nuked, or runoff from Taboritsky's weapons poisoning large chunks of Asia.)

*„There is no hope under the Black Sun”* 0:22

For some reason I never once played a dark path in this mod. When the world is already that messed up, changing it for the better becomes a righteous struggle, and struggle is what's interresting- not maintaining the status quo by keeping the world as dark and depressing as it was at the start.

As the clock strikes twelve, and the Saturday grow black, and moon covers the Sun, and all hope is stomped down, satan laughs. Not because he's won, not because he has control, but because he doesn't. We did what he couldn't in just half a decade. We've made the heavens weep, and the angels cry, and god to truly turn away. The night has fallen in Earth as we have fallen from christ. Under the black sun, a new Earth rises. As folk fall and burn beneath it, the black lether boots march on. The night has fallen, yet, it has only just risen.

Gameplay: read half way through an event go "i kind of get the gist of this" then reload when you get a bad result from it Lore: *T H E B L A C K S U N*

Snap back to reallty:

Everybody gangsta till the nukes and shovels start speaking angry Russian

TNO Lore makes me think that there is no more daytime in the entire world except maybe North America. Only nightime, darkness and suffering, streets illuminated by small lamp posts with millions of dead corpses everywhere.

"White is the Army and Black the Baron That wants to restore the old Tsar's throne But from the taiga to British seas The people's Red Army's at the peak of strength!" I hear some ♂right♂ music in background.

This mod can probably be summarized with: "Do you think God stays in heaven, becayse he too lives in fear of what he has created?"

Gameplay:Press button,then press button,after that press button Lore:Heinrich was bored so after waking up he setenced whole race to burn

game:you clicked a buttton lore:congratulations,the british are extinct

This would honestly be a more interesting series than man in the high Castle.

The New Order and the most macabre and strange scenario to play in HOI4

I genuinely enjoy playing TNO, but no wars? Correct, but the mod is more like a Interactive novel. Played the mod probably for hundreds of hours and there aren't many paths I haven't taken

I saw this when it was like a month old I vaguely knew what HOI4 was So imagine my bewilderment and surprise upon watching this video

The question is if TNO became a movie, which ending would the producer go for? Hopefully the great trial!

Game: Congrats! You're pressing button for 1000 times! Lore: Congrats! You're now reach the end of the world! Now your family gonna die.

*picks Burgundy* “Why is tno so boring?”

That seems so deep, idk why but i'm feeling pain.

There is greatness under the black sun.

the lore is definetly better than gameplay (strategy games are too hard for me)

Oh the iberian union. With Franco and salazar fighting for the power. Nice mechanic

Most of the TNO gameplay is waiting for national focuses to finish (Or the domestic situation If burgundy)

It's incredible how easily we have the imagination for the most desesperate, horrific, apocalyptic timelines... I'm so desesperatly looking for AltHistory/Uchronia/Scenarii with some fuck*ng hope in those dark days. May I have some mods where I can free the world from barbary and imperialism once in my lifetime?

I literally fucking cried playing as OMSK, I had started the Great trial, as I got closer to Berlin the bombs started falling, when it was done I was just taken to a map with all of the countries gone and declared anarchies, the little map in the bottom right with a note saying “All gone” on it and all of the controls being unavailable, rusted and glass cracked, I literally shed a tear right there realising what I had caused, this mod just hits you mentally so hard.

True, real, and soul crushing. Edit: Now do the insane clock man.

Watching this whilst playing Omsk, the great trail shall not falter like Bukharin's failed state!

gameplay: rocket gaming lore: man, you destroyed half of a world background music: white army black baron be like

I swear to god, Ive managed to play TNO only once. But the lore was so fu*** terrifying unlike the HOI4 normal one. Hehe tank go brrrr. In TNO it made me reconsider my humanity while playing the Germans and going full Na** boy.

Fun fact : Putin is actually a fan of this mod which is why he's larping as Yazov now .

Good thing I only play democracies

0:23 GOTCHA

Burgundy gameplay be like: SH1T SH1T SH1T MEIN COUNTRY IS A CLUSTERTRUCK PLS DON'T DIE ON ME

"Red Army is the strongest" sounding in the background

Never tried TNO might try it right now

No hope under The Black Sun

TNO - лучшая визуальная новелла в HoA 4

living in the Red flood universe is much worse than in TNO

Hits hard in our crazy ass bilderberg NWO timeline 😭

I had to sing the German version „Arbeiter von Wien" to this Russian march u played in the background! Majestic! :')

Burgundy is really nerfed. And it's kinda sucks. Trying in realism for SS-state, in mod, where someone like Velimir and Tabby can actually unify Russia...wtf?

One simple that would make this perfect. That dark-purple black sun in the background be spinning around.

Red Dawn France: "NOTHING'S REAL NOTHING'S REAL NOTHING'S REAL AAAAHAHAAHAHAAHAHA!! YOU FOOOLS! YOU'RE ALL IN MY HEAD! GET OUTTA MY HEAD, GET OUTTA MY HEAD, GET OUTTA MY HEAD!! AHHH!!

И от тайги до британских морей Красная армия всех сильней Так пусть же красная Сжимая властно Свой штык мозолистой рукой И все должны мы Неудержимо *Идти в последний смертный бой* !

This is unrelated, but I think Lex Luthor would make a great leader for burgundy, the only difference is that that it would be a bit... Corporate, if you will.

this event is given a special charm with the sad version of Red army march

0:22 Burgund jumpscare

For those asking or wondering the split ar 0.23 is a image of the fascists with the words NO HOPE UNDER

This are that moments, when we go down in history

TNO is best visual novel i have ever played

TNO "russia": please end my suffering

Musics name is : Red Army is the Strongest

lol melody of march "the red army is stronger than all"

dont let the clock strike 12

This would be amazing world.

damn why am I watching this video over and over again-

*There is no hope under the black sun.*

man, i love reuniting the ussr at 3 am in tno

Kanyes favourite reality

“Im sorry” - Montgomery

The song being played is "Red Army is The Strongest" an ironically soviet song.

Песня на заднем фоне: Белая Армия, черный барон снова готовят нам царский трон, Но от тайги до британских морей. Красная Армия всех сильнеф
