I like that they're adding it but my initial take is that this is just another nerf to AI across the board, as managing supplies and figuring out when they're about to get rocked by men-at-arms with stacked bonuses are the sorts of thing they're already very bad at. As it is you can already pretty much lead a doomstack in a ring around the rosie until they're all starving to death and winter will just made it happen faster. Also the nerf to cavalry in particular will just make the mongols even less of a threat.

Elias_Maluco posted:I dont think it was OP or needed any nerf Yeah, this is the note I'm least happy about too. I really liked hitting that point in a game where you are powerful and prosperous enough that the nearby little independent counts realize that their future is with you one way or the other and join up. Seems like this is just to make expansion duller and grindier for no reason. I never had anyone accept vassalization that I couldn't have conquered in about four clicks. Definitely not overpowered.

Freudian slippers posted:OK, so I created a custom jewish count, placed him in Acre and decided to try to form the kingdom of Jerusalem. This will obviously upset the Abbasids, but so far I've managed to butter up both my liege, the emir and the caliph. I'm still a count, but now with 4 counties spread over two duchies. Question: Should I try to become a duke myself? When I tried something like this in CK2, the caliph just revoked my duchies willy-nilly, can he do the same thing in CK3? Would I be better off as an uber-count? Try to get a hook so that when you do you can immediately get religious protection.

There are definitely a few mechanics that I'll be much happier to see used elsewhere. Unique bloodline traits for instance. I'll probably do a viking game just to play through some of these events, and honestly adventuring does sound like a lot of fun. I'd just be a lot more excited about this level of love given to nearly any other area, since viking-focused stuff happens in, oh I dunno, every game ever since the dawn of time. Also on a marginally related note, if you haven't, read The Alexiad it will get you all sorts of hyped for a Byzantine play-through and then sad that this patch wasn't all about the Romans.

Yeah a more capable AI and being able to play as unlanded so that losing your title isn't an instant game over would make this game truly spectacular.

Serephina posted:The first thing I noticed when I fired up my Duke of Munu tutorial game is that the HRE was strangely not impossibly huge (in terms of levies) compared to where I was. I think I exceeded him around the time I unified Ireland, long before finishing Britain. Was unsure if I'm just more used to the game than I was when I tried out ck2, or if something funny was happening. This is a huge annoyance. You should have the option of just starting a contract over from scratch when you vassalize someone, subject to them rising up and all that like usual, but having to chip away at these things one change at a time is just so tedious.

These honestly seems like great changes. Mercenary Cost - Considering that I literally hire every mercenary company in the world late game just so no one else can, this change is spot on. Also being able to hire mercenaries cheaper in desperate small-scale situations without crippling yourself forever financially is definitely an incentive to try riskier starts and focus more on tall play. I like it. Garrisons - A good change, making war torn territories easier to take back gives more incentive for keeping your own lands peaceful and unoccupied, and rewards responding quickly to your land being sieged down if you get there before the garrison refills as opposed to now where there's no reason not to just wait until whenever it's convenient to un-siege it because it's gonna take a stupid year anyway. This is good. Faction Synchronization - Seems like this could be a great change, and a very sensible one. Hopefully this will go a ways to making keeping a big realm together harder, which is something the player is much better than the Ai at an contributes a lot to the feeling of the game becoming impossible to lose at a certain point. Might also make those faction happiness perk trees that I never use worth looking at if that's a goal. Or, alternatively.... Broken Cog posted:constant free revocations.

Serephina posted:I'm worried that Garrisons will just mean that all these perpetual internal wars (which you could forbid in ck2, right?) will leave everything outside of your personal domain permanently crippled. You can mitigate them a lot with higher crown authority and you can right click and demand end to vassal war, although it doesn't always work. But yeah it's a valid concern, and a reason to try to keep your realm more stable, which I think is a good thing.

Would be cool to be outside Europe. Sri Lanka. They're feudal, one of the highest developed cultures in the world, on excellent terms with their neighbors. You can play peacefully while you learn to manage successions and then you can ramp into war mode easily. You're so far outside of crusade/jihad range they'll never threaten you unless you expand so far inland that you'll have a huge army by then, and you get to be polygamous and use war elephants.

PittTheElder posted:I went to go start a game since the patch is out, was hoping to play as a vassal of somebody because the game is just far more fun that way, but holy hell it's nearly unplayable once you notice how loving badly the AI performs. From the 1066 start you can watch as top level rulers immediately grant all their vassals away to intermediate level vassals, hamstringing themselves in the process. And it happens every time, within months of starting the game. It's such an obvious problem, how is this allowed to persist? They also give out horrible contracts to everyone. It's just so tedious conquering a feudal empire because every single vassal has guaranteed council rights, title revocation protection, no levies or taxes . . . like geez no wonder you all just stood around and watched your emperor get conquered if you think this is gonna keep going the way it has been goddamn.
