Events Log?
I didn't play much of HoI3 and the only real HoI time I had before playing this was HoI2. That being said I could be wrong but I think I remember a little chat/log type window that would tell you things that are going on "Germany accepted blah blah blah" or whatever and usually time/date stamped it also. Am I thinking of a different game or was this a thing? Either way, why doesn't HoI 4 have that?

Talking about the log in the bottom center of the screen.

It has one. You should have missed it or something.
Just no time/date as I recall...

Is it an option you turn on somewhere? Other than pop ups I don't really see any other info being scrolled or passed to me, and the pop ups are usually about me 90% of the time.

Maybe we're thinking about different things here?

No I'm talking about this. Notice at the bottom center of the screen you get that log. Lots of good information there that I feel like we're missing out on. Even small events can be good information.

EDIT: Not sure how to post SS like you did, imgur is safe but I don't blame you for not clicking it.

Ok, we were, in fact, thinking about different things.
There are no things like that AFAIK.

I didn't think there was, but wanted to make sure. That's a real shame because as you can see (or not see, bad image quality), you get some extra information down there about all kinds of things. big and little.

You go to the Screenshots page, click on a screenshot. A page opens, with the screenshot itself, comments, everything. Then you click on a gear-like thing and select "Share". Then copy the link and paste it.

The problem is it's not a screenshot of mine, I pulled it off a google image search of "Hoi2 screenshot" lol

Are you possibly referring to when you click on the world tension meter? From there you can see what events happened that raised the world tension

No. I'm referring to the log the game used to spit out like provided in the screenshot. It shows more than just tension events.
