Game to Discuss?
This week, let's discuss Crusader Kings 3, the sequel to the incredibly popular Crusader Kings 2 (duh). Following up on Crusader Kings 2 was never going to be easy, especially with the mass of DLC the original game had accumulated over its lifespan. Paradox certainly made a valiant attempt, but while some of their more recent fixations (custom religions and cultures) made it into the game, the breadth of neurodivergent obsessions available to players in CK2 was cut down significantly. Personally, I'd say I enjoyed it, but it never really grabbed me the same way CK2 did. Share your own thoughts in reply to the pinned comment.

I played it for a while. I think I got through 3 characters or something before getting bored. Paradox games have this specific feel to them, like they feel expansive and deep but at some point you realise you're just map painting.

I had played almost 1k hours
of ck2 and was really hyped for ck3, but after doing a few multiplayer runs I found I had no desire to play it anymore. I think with ck2 I just played our pretty much any possible scenario so I got bored with the whole idea of the franchise

Same scenario? No new mechanics?

There's a few, especially for religion. But as OP says, they didn't include a lot of features that had been added to ck2 over the years via dlc, so it feels like a way smaller game. The small amount of new stuff just doesn't hold my interest

This is typical Paradox tho. They'll be 20 DLC deep and then release the next generation game with zero of the flavor or improvements from the prior. EU5 is going to be a nightmare.

I had similar feels with the Civilization series. I got to idk IV and didn't wanna play another of those.

IV was great at the time and V was an objective improvement, but VI just felt like an overly stylized reskin and I've had no desire to pick it back up since release

A lot more accessible than 2 but that comes with a lot of dumbing down too. I felt it from Oblivion to Skyrim, but the people before me felt it from Morrowind to Oblivion. Unfortunate, but it's an inevitability with companies trying to reach the widest market.

Its only playable because Paradox relented and allowed modded games to count for achievements.

They tried it with Vic3 and after it had no real impact since people who cheat just use SAM or pre-made saves or even Cheat Engine they rolled it out to CK3, they will probably do it for every new game.
