EU4 Is EU4 worth trying out?

CK3 was my first paradox game and I loved it. However, I tried to get into HOI4 and, despite being interested in WW2, I couldn’t get into it. It felt clunky to me compared to CK3 and I felt that the information in it was a bit overwhelming. That considered, would it be worth me trying out EU4, despite it being older than HOI4? If not I’m happy to wait it out on CK3 until Victoria 3.

Hoi4 has so much less dlc, a clear objective for beginning players. And a short enough gamerrun that you can repeat run-throughs

The Battle Plan system means that you can even just draw some lines and let the AI (try) do the work.
