What I'd like to know is if CK3 really is getting over CK2, which has had so many years of expansion content that I'm not sure how the newer title could promise other than a better interface, more graphics, and wacky heresies.
- InitialLastName 4y agoParadox games have a bad habit of being overwhelmed by the cruft of their expansions, and CK2 was no exception. The game is phenomenal, but there are so many different unrelated systems (and systems in the vanilla game to support the DLC) that it can be incomprehensible. CK3 so far has taken the best insights of those expansions (dynasty/bloodline maintenance, personal armies, skill specialization) and integrated them into the main game. The DLC has been a coin toss whether it is so well-tied-in (I think the culture-molding mechanic is less awkward than the throne room and artifacts or the iberian politics that somehow everyone on earth is privy to).
- bee_rider 4y agoCK2 was really starting to strain under the weight of those expansions. The idea of just re-implementing the thing but with the knowledge of the ending scope seems quite promising (haven't had a chance to check it out, though).
