Crusader Kings III

[Valmy]

Kind of bizarre they actually implemented such a tiny and obscure sect, which looks like was dead by the 5th century and its medieval revivals didn't occur until the very end of the CK period. I guess they just wanted to show naked people.

Well to be fair, I believe the Jain sect that enjoyed being naked actually ruled large kingdoms in India during the game period, so that's probably who they implemented it for, aside from for perverted players.

Well one thing I learned from CK2 is that Jainism was a much bigger deal back in this era than it is today.

So yeah, if you do the 867 start date in CK3, I believe the largest kingdom in India is the Rashtrakuta Empire, its emperor is Amoghavarsha, and I think he and his wife are naked as well as most of the court, due to being Digambara Jains (this is partly from memory and partly from Wikipedia, and nonely from the game as I am on my work laptop ATM).

[Razgovory]

Are you often naked on Wikipedia.

So going for the old Nat Geo naked natives angle?

Seems like one of the main branches of Jainism, outisde India, is in Toronto. Might join.

That's silly - the emperor and his court weren't monks; they would have worn clothes.

[garbon]

I find it a bit racist.

Not sure if it was just limited to monks, though. Certain sects believed clothes were a possession that should be shunned.

The few posts about in on the forum and the main mod focused on India all suggest it should be limited. Otherwise, you and paradox are supporting the idea that without any support that powerful emperors in India were running about naked.

[Valmy]

I don't think even the Adamists were naked outside of religious ceremonies right? Especially as in Europe they were in pretty cold places, though again it is either before or right at the end of the CK era.

[Tamas]

It was a convenient and in case of the Janists also racist excuse to not let their naked 3d models go to waste.

I mean there is little evidence for lots of the stuff they are trying to model. Sort of like Jewish Khazars and Afghan Zunism. I mean sure those aren't based on nothing but mostly nothing. They just thought it was cooler and more fun to have it that way. Seems like some similar thinking going on here. Sure there is some bits of evidence there were nudists out there in this era, not a lot but some, so let's run with it.

I'd also suggest some of those should be deleted but don't they think are as racist as portraying Indian leaders as naked primitives.

Yeah, exactly.  They also probably figured some perverted nerds would buy the game to see it who might not have otherwise.

Khazars are real.  In fact, I have a Khazar dictionary on my Kindle!
