It feels weird that you can enable both sexes inheriting on equal footing super early in the game. Is that a thing unique to Basque culture?

Declaring on people in this game is a complete crapshoot. The AI can immediately ally and drag in people you'd have no idea were even on the table. Attacking a guy with 700 units suddenly means facing 5K, and no, I didn't miss any allies. Ridiculous.

I haven't figured out the downsides to Dread yet. E: Or the positives, really. Something about your vassals being less inclined to join factions?

PittTheElder posted:There's also a perk in Stewardship I think that gives you an MaA discount (up to 50% off?) scaled with your dread level. Dread is broken as hell, mostly in how you acquire it. Executing random unlanded prisoners should probably be +1 at most. Especially when it's not a public execution. Not explicitly, anyway. Shame it's a net benefit, since I like continuing the path characters have before they're handed to me.

Tender Bender posted:I wish I could sit down and have a conversation with people in this game. Or at least have the Civ-type trade window. I like this vassal who has a bumfuck County in my capital duchy. I wish I could tell him "I'm going to give you a nice title over here and make you a Duke, just give me this county here, it's win-win". Instead I have to take his land and hope he doesn't make me crush him. Same with giving a faction leader a nice title if they would be so kind and disperse their angry mob.

Am I completely screwed out on getting the CK2 bonus cosmetic stuff like beards and silly hats? The ones you got from the not-achievement thingies? Couldn't even get the first one unlocked when they were a thing, and I see it ended up being a massive list.

PittTheElder posted:That is my impression as well. It feels very much like they're waiting for all the features to be complete before talking about them. Which is a philosophy I can get behind. Jabor posted:If I could have spent $5 every time I had the hankering for some CK2, played it for a week, then went back to something else, it would have been way cheaper for me than actually keeping up with the DLC train. Please don't cheer for subscription models. They could've plonked down a $30 Complete Edition and set a precedent instead of following this dark path. I can't help but think that every inch towards anything subscription-based is gonna lead to worse things. Imagine wanting to play CK2 with all the trimmings somewhere in the future, but Paradox blew up somehow and you can't buy the individual DLCs anymore. It's like soiling your pants to keep yourself cool, or something.

SlothBear posted: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. Paradox doesn't normally shy away from just letting the AI get a freebie on attrition, which I bet is gonna happen here again.

It would also give that fuzzy RPG feeling, knowing that this county is known for its specialised polearm dudes, and raising those to help would mean a difference against that unit of incoming cavalry, instead of everything dropping into the same soup.

I really wish that gavelkind would let you choose what's distributed to whom, or that it's based on politics instead of the game playing 52 pickup for you. It makes little sense that my oldest child gets some backwater province, while our primary county goes to my fourth. It's cool that everything's split evenly, but there should be a reason that my heir loses out and doesn't get the ancestral homestead.

I triest the Piast achievement, and holy crap, I do not appreciate the Greater Poland duchy is 6 provinces. That's a lot of stewardship you need until the end of the game. Handing out provinces in your core duchy usually means very angry vassals, but right now I have an 80% tax/levy malus, oof.

 First of all, this guy is an absolute monster. He's researched 4 cultural techs from scratch, and doesn't seem to be stopping. Secondly, having a tier 10 court is both stupidly easy to maintain, and is ridiculously overpowered. +48 opinion with everyone as a king? Even people I invade or imprison still have 80-100 opinion with me. I also seem to remember them showing us, that you could rebuild or modify your court, or at least rooms connected to it, ending up with a maze people could get lost in or whatever. So far it's been nothing but extremely minor court events, and I've sort of stopped paying attention to them for mostly wasting my time.

scaterry posted:Player owns two mines, wonders why 100 grandeur is easy. more at eleven It's more that asking the Pope for 3-400 gold every two years isn't hard to do. I also only own one mine in Innsbruck and suck at finances, but yes, it does help. alcaras posted:There’s a “Exocitize” decision but it didn’t seem to do anything visually. Yeah, it seems to just be a button to make friends with a foreign ruler and get a bunch of fame out of it. Same with the court dress code button or whatever. I've yet to press either, so that's eggs on my face.

Buschmaki posted:This focus on cultures is just reminding me of how there are barely any clothes in the game, everyone from like, the seljuks to the han chinese are all just dressed in mongolian clothes and it's sorta super jarring... I wouldn't mind a few more hats, either. Maybe some helmets? There's like one Norse helmet, since the chainmail one doesn't actually put one on you.

TjyvTompa posted:Even though they nerfed the seduction madness late-game is still a mayhem with every single character having "Love Pox". It's stupid. In a similar vein, I'd wish the game wouldn't be inhabited by so many people wearing the same iron mask. Makes it a bit hard keeping track of everyone.

Bird in a Blender posted:I recently had my sister, who was my spymaster at the time, get caught having sex with her grandson. She must suck at her job if everyone found that out. It had some consequences as she got excommunicated. When her husband died, I couldn’t find anyone worth a drat to marry her to. That's when you just find the guy with the highest prowess/martial stat, so you at least get another knight out of it.

The House Guard MaA you get from the Warfare dynasty only stacks to 500 troops. I'm already completely unstoppable, and they were good in the early game, but is there any reason to use them still, when everything else stacks to 1.700?

Serephina posted:Ugh, how I do I fix these hosed up feudal contracts? One powerful vassal got desposed by their own vassal, and this new guy's contract is literally nothing, taxes nor levies. It'd take several hundred years naturally, or a dozen murder plots to fix, nevermind doing so without tyranny. If it's a kingdom or duchy, revoke and destroy it. E: I'm not even sure you need to hold a title to destroy it, if it's within your territory.

If she's straight, she might get a satisfying romantic and/or sexual relationship. If she's gay, she gets...yet another dude she's not interested in trying to sleep with her?

PittTheElder posted:The Post-Antioch phase is the weakest area of my First Crusade reading, but this doesn't seem to actually be the case? There was endless squabbling between the 5 guys right at the top over who should be in charge, but the crusader army was still operating as one force all the way down to Jerusalem. They understood it was a dangerous environment and operating separately was asking to get massacred. I wouldn't mind a DLC that added historical mechanics to each crusade. So the first was about crusader states and a giant stack of cooperating dudes, while the fourth would be more like how it is now. Then expand the crap out of it.

I tried writing a bit about drawing specialised MaAs from your vassals, and how perceived vassal loyalty should be a thing, but I can't really put words to my mental ramblings right now. I just really like the idea of each region/ruler producing specialist troops, but it all falls apart when you don't really use MaAs outside of your own and mercenaries. Vassals just give you a stack of useless peasants, why aren't they supplying their actual troops, too? It's a bit of a fantasy trope, the specialists from different regions, but it feels like that was what they were trying to do, anyway? And about the perceived loyalty thing - it feels like a shoe-in to have your vassal show up for your war, just to turn heel mid-fight or even joining the enemy, who's been making offers behind your back. Yet it.. doesn't really materialise itself like that ingame.

Masonity posted:Of course, if you have the Making a Killing dynasty perk, "crusade" is Norse for "make a shitload of free gold". Varangian troops, this thing, as many knights as you can fit, and declaring on whoever's the strongest is so stupidly powerful. I have to restrain myself from rolling Norse, because they're so hilariously broken. You don't need any land, you barely need any noticable amount of troops, but 3K varangians and ~30 knights can take over the world singlehandedly, if you just want to paint the map. I don't remember when I last raised levies, even as a non-Norse. They eat your supplies and do nothing but die in return.
