Crusader Kings III

[garbon]

This sucks. I have spent so much on CK2 I guess I just kind of hoped this would suck so I could just keep playing that without a sense of FOMO 

Actually I think its kind of great as I loved CK2 and I'll be happy to play CK3 once they've filled it out. So far most of the things I've seen on this thread and/or reviews are excitement over things that also happened in CK2.

That's a perfectly valid point and for sure it is largely a repeat of the CK2 experience. But if it manages to make me excited to play something I spent 1000+ hours with, I am happy.

So is there like no vassal limit anymore?

[Habbaku]

Yeah, mostly what I like about CK3 at the moment is that it's clean, focused, the UI doesn't make my eyes bleed, etc.

I look forward to the expansions all the same, but am really happy that I can just futz around with the basic gameplay at the moment. At least, until I get bored and try the Vampire: The Dark Ages mod that's already out. 

[FunkMonk]

Yeah Valmy, it's more or less than same gameplay experience as CK2, just much nicer to play. Not missing out on too much to be honest. If you feel the itch, just boot up CK2

I just remember loving CK1 so much and sure I would always play it but CK2 was so much better I dropped it and never looked back. Now if we are in a similar situation it would be sad to leave CK2 behind since fuck I am sure I spent more than $200 total on it. My most expensive non-MMO ever.

But hey maybe this is something people could give me for Christmas, I never know what to ask for anyway.

[Habbaku]

Christmastime purchase of CK3 is probably a good bet. I assume, by then, that the first DLC will either be out or on the horizon.

[Josquius]

Whatever happened to all the talk of moving over to a saas approach?

Yes, asking for a Do I legitimize my bastard son from my incestuous affair with my sister or keep my current heir simulator is a solid Christmas gift

Well it is a family holiday...

[chipwich]

Etc why did they remove army attachment?

Hungary has been fun so far

Hungary has been fun so far

1066 Hungary or the other one? I saw an option that allows Magyar migration or something and...might give them a shot just to see what that is.

[HVC]

Early start. When you select the migration decision and attack Bulgaria you get some event troops to help out. I then carved out some land from Moravia and subjugated a independent  duke. Raiding Germany is easy, I see why it happened in real life. Actually raiding should be much harder. You can make a 100  on a single adventure raiding in a circuit (which in the early game is a lot)
