Hi, i have a problem with the hoi4 file, on my pc. One day i tried adding a mod on my hoi4 file, i did something incorrect and all of my progress on the game was deleted. Even on steam i lost all of my achievements, and now there is also a problem with the hoi4 file. Even on my paradox account it says that i dont have the game. If somebody can help me, than please leave an answer.

Did you buy the game on Steam directly?

well i bought it on G2A a site where you can buy games cheaper, then i got the steam code from that site. After that i used the code on steam and i installed the game. So yes i bought it from steam.

G2A is a grey marketplace reselling Steam keys of dubious origin, oftentimes illegimately obtained. The key you bought on G2A may have been revoked because it was stolen, or initially purchased illicitly or used in the wrong region. There is a (bad) reason why the Steam keys are so cheap there.

Contact Steam support or Paradox support to find out why your key was revoked and the game removed from your library.

By doing business with these scammers, you take the risk of losing money, and you hurt game developers, especially the smaller ones.

So you only lost your achievements on Steam but can still install/play from Steam?

Can you subscribe to mods?

Did you get a VAC ban?

That's... weird. No idea what could've caused it then
