I think it is the first game I've ever pre-ordered, I'm going to be playing it asap. I won't mind if it isn't yet as good as CK2, I'm just looking forward to seeing the new ideas, so I should enjoy at least a few hours with it. Just as long as it runs on my machine, anyway (unlike Horizon Zero Dawn, alas).

I don't mind Cornwall being raided in 867, that seems fair enough, but I'm not so sure that any and every Norse ruler should be claiming my county. It's not as if Cornish levies could really help out much in the Orkneys.

Stokes posted:Your bishop doesn't like you and your vassal mayor isn't very skilled but demands the job. It's a pretty heavy Intrigue Focused start, but thankfully your Spymaster is a 17 year old Elusive Shadow who can educate your Heir. Character stats and skills change between games, so replaying the same realm can be extremely different.

The ambient sounds are great and all, but I really wish they'd stop when the game is paused, so you have an audio cue. Other wishes: Messages should be dissmissable by right clicking anywhere on them, not just in the title bar. Lock tooltips with the left mouse button (I have no middle button dammit).

I'm puzzled by the approval numbers. 1) In my liege's council all the councillors except me have approval stats at the bottom of their council portraits. The tooltip for those numbers does not match it at all. (The stats are the same as those given on their character sheets for their opinion of their liege, and the tooltip there does match.) 2) I still can't find a way to see people's opinions of anyone but me or their liege.

TorakFade posted:I mean, if discovering a focused innovation takes 40 years, it means I could only choose 10 in the whole game ... when there's like 15 in each of the 4 eras + any cultural/special ones for a total of 60+! I guess you're not supposed to have them all at end game, but I'd think you could snag about half of them at least. Maybe that's easier and they come faster in less lovely places like Italy or the HRE? You can speed it up a lot with the Learning focus. I really like the way they've done focuses, it's actually hard to choose between them.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:What's the best way of making sure this doesn't implode in a hilarious pile of jarls all deciding the best time to assassinate the new king is right now? In my game the AI seemed much more keen on factions than assassinations. Try to make sure you don't have any very powerful vassals - maybe imprison and execute now, so your heir doesn't have to. Then have your heir study diplomacy and befriending.

KingKapalone posted:So I got the claim and won the war to get the county. Now I just do it again for the next one over? Doesn't seem like there's much else to do while waiting for the claim to come in. Fabricating claims is more important in the very early game, you will have more casus belli as you go on. But there are also things to do besides territorial expansion. There are pilgrimages, hunts, etc in your decisions, and focus trees will open up options like seduction. When things are slow, turn the game speed up.

In CK2 I always used the earliest start, but in CK3 I have given up doing anything in NW Europe in 867 for the time being. When I've got more achievements I'll play it on easy and save scum, but in Ironman the endless combat in which you can never safely move away from your capital is too tedious.

Corbeau posted:Partition succession owns, the stress mechanics own. Playing different rulers feels so much more distinct compared to CK2. I agree. But I'd like to understand the partition mechanics better - how many counties does it think are worth one fancy title? My first ruler left one county and one effectively useless duchy title each to sons 1 and 2, then three counties to lucky son 3. Son 1's single county was the capital, of course, but it was too early in the game for that to have been developed much, so he ended up with less than half the army Son 3 had. How many counties would my ruler have had to have before Son 1 got another? I have doubts about the historical realism of this mechanic. I'd have thought real people operating partition systems would be more aware of the material and military value of landholding. But I do like the fact that it's far less easy for the player to blob than in CK2.

My liege died and his heir is an infant. I am on his council as Marshal, despite having a martial skill of 5, presumably because my Diplo skill of 29 meant my liege knew I should be on the council, but the existing Chancellor has a hook stopping him being replaced and my liege was too stupid to get a better Marshal than me instead. Anyway, my point is that my liege died and I am now being warned that raiders are in my territory every time they attack his realm, even though they're 200 miles away from me. Not that I don't like my liege, he's the only thing stopping my neighbours swallowing me whole, but I have one county and a martial skill of 5, mate, there's nothing I can do.

If you have a learning focus you can get the pedagogy perk, making you a better tutor as well.

You have big defensive bonuses from buildings and terrain. You still have to swear fealty to your most powerful neighbour most of the time to be safe, but the bonuses from being on your liege's council make that desirable anyway.

Is there something wrong with the way the Suggestions box decides a :Realm will lose land when Vassal dies? I'm being warned I'll lose a county that is my vassal earl's only county. He has four unlanded children, including two sons. All the children have lieges who are my vassals. The county sheet says it has high partition male preference. The relevant duchy has not been created yet. My primary title is Queen of Wales, where I have absolute crown authority and primogeniture. I am also queen of England, where the county is, and the kingdom sheet for that says inheritance will follow my primogeniture male preference law. I'm assuming the suggestion is wrong, mayby tripped up by the duchy not existing. Meanwhile I did lose a different county that was inherited by the King of Jerusalem. I was expecting that, but the Suggestions box said nothing about it.
