Hearts of Iron IV - Death or Dishonor - interview with Dan Lind, Game director.
Video originally from 2017. Not previously released in Youtube.
- I like to compare ourselves to MMO, because it's closer than,
like, a regular release game. You know? A regular game releases one, you know, maybe one expansion and they're done or something like that. Whereas our model is almost closer to an MMO where it's continuous releases, continuous interaction with the community, what directions they wanna go and stuff like that. And it's basically essential if you're going to be developing a game for this long to actually listen to the people who buy it and keep buying.
- And I think that's important to keep it fresh as well. I Maybe back in the day you could make a sequel that was the same game with prettier graphics. But I don't think that really works anymore. And we have never really done it for Paradox games either.

Paradox is opening the doors to its fabled PDXCON to the general public for the first time. The event took place in Stockholm Sweden 13.-14.5.2017.
"Come and join the developers, designers, leaders, and non-vampires of Paradox Interactive at Gamla Riksarkivet in Stockholm for a weekend of games, panels, and partying."
Hearts of Iron IV (or HOI4) is a grand strategy game by Paradox Interactive and the sequel to Hearts of Iron III. It covers the time period from 1936 to 1948, focusing on the build up to the Second World War and the war itself.
Total strategic war
The war is not only won on land, on the seas and in the air, but also in the laboratories, the factories, the backrooms, in international trade and in the hearts and minds of men and women.
The most authentic real-time simulation of the war
Let the greatest commanders of WW2 fight your war with the tools of the time; tanks, planes, ships, guns and newly discovered weapons of mass destruction.
Fight as any nation in the greatest human conflict of all time
Choose from the greatest powers striving for victory, or the small nations trying to weather the storm.
