Bartholomew's Day massacre.īut Hitler is beyond that.

Even now, the French leader has some responsibility for St. You can always find ppl who had complained about leader choices from the devs. If they'd put Hitler or Stalin as unique leaders of their countries some ppl might understand as "tyranny is the only thing history remembers from our country".

I also think they don't want to offense anyone. Yet in civ 6, it seems they wanted to avoid modern leaders (when possible) and go for a more cartoonish mood. Though there was Stalin and Mao in Civ 4.

Hearts of Iron is more war based than Civ and Civ tries to be more "mainstream" than Hearts. Not the same devs, not the same editor, no the same audience.
