HOI4 by 1 point barely over stellaris. With HOI being a historical game and stellariss being Si-fi is the only difference in how I look at them.
which game do you hype more? stellaris or hoi4?

Hearts of iron 4 for the only reason that the sooner it is made, the sooner the development of Vic III will strat
Stellaris. but not by much.
I am sure if you post this in the Stellaris forums the responses will be different xD
Q1 2017? Maybe im just wishful thinking but I really think its gonna be this year.

HOI4, Stellaris looks nice but doesn't interest me so much that i would buy it upon release.
I prefer the setting and concepts of stellaris but HoI4 looks like a more well made game.

Stellaris, I've been waiting for a great space strategy game for a very long time...
Yes 
But seriously though, Stellaris takes the lead on this one. It's been a LONG time since I've gotten to play a good space empire builder.

I have some fears and hopes for both.
Paradox usually made me a little unhappy by railroading gameplay progression a bit much. And sometimes also by making simple plans so very labor-intensive to follow (not enough defaults, not enough multi-select configurable & re-orderable lists / tree / graphs and queues with priorities, and so on).
This seems to be getting addressed to an extent vs. what past games had, but I honestly can't currently tell which one of these two might do either better. I'll probably prefer that one, though.

I'm most looking forward to Stellaris, it's a new game and I want a new game in that setting.
HoI4 looks decent but I think I'm going to want to mod units so much to make it more WW2.

I am so surprised at how they handle Stellaris when I look at HOI4 and VIC2.
I do not know, I get the feeling it misses so much details when it is compared to those games. I was expecting at least something closer to VIC2 in feel, with more emphasis on POPs composition and such. It might be adressed in DLC, who knows, but I find it lacking at the moment in overall informations you have about your Empire. It is set in the future, so I guess I was expecting that more informations would come into play,
It is so much abstract at the moment in Stellaris that I am a bit dissapointed.
I mean, I will most likely love the game anyway, but it is a concern of mine.
