That’s not counting the many more that Paradox Interactive publish. I also didn’t think Paradox made Descent and was surprised by that too, turns out I was right... it was Parallax. Big gaff.

    I remember playing CK2 back when it was way new, like weeks old... after scouting the forums over at Paradox I encountered a fairly medium size group who got together on the following Saturday. We had about a 30 minute chat, got to know each other enough - at least as far as our goals both in game and out. I was the most successful in what turned out to be Round One = King of Sicily. Not bad, I thought. So, since everyone else was totally getting destroyed by NPCs (AI), we rerolled, this time as the entire Kingdom of Angle-land during the Norman Invasion. Long story short: We crushed the Normans to the point where William the Bastard was begging for one little county around York. And that was about it. 800 hours total. Best. Game. Ever.

    This was exactly the game I was looking for (as per all your in-vid discussion). The irony was that when I started to play it 10 months ago; I felt totally overwhelmed. I knew I was going to have to spend more time understanding it, but just didn't have the time or emotional energy to give it what it deserved. So after a half-assed tutorial attempt I left it sitting in my virtual game box. Almost a year later, I'm now ready to have a proper crack.. it just looks too good to pass up. I'll have to put aside my 'perfectionism (need to know everything about mechanics)' aside and just roll with it.

They're so much to do and see and it's always interesting to see what might happen whenever you do something or fell to do something. It's a very complicated and challenging process and I'm not quite sure if I'm doing everything right or not but either way it's fun to see all the different ways the game can play out. I've been dividing my time between Wastelands 3 and this game and I've enjoyed both. So I guess that's all that really matters.

I've got over a thousand hours in CK2 and thought I'd have no problem learning CK3 I was somewhat wrong, I'm now 9hrs into CK3 and understand the game quite well. I'd just recommend not picking Alfred the great in the 867 start date or the British Isles to begin with, unless you like endless wars against enemies much greater then your own.

The guy who has been playing it (The Geek Cupboard) has done a really good job explaining and now I want to save up to buy it. Thanks for the review! But yeah, I knew nothing about this game yesterday and I now in depth understand the game functions and all that, that's saying something because I am not the brightest when understanding new games. It takes me awhile so the fact such a complicated game had someone like me easily understanding it says something! Give it a try.

    Aside from how they simplified battles way too much imo, I like what they did with it. They might have to add something to prevent blobbing though, because the absence of defense pacts means as a big guy, you can very easily bully everyone around you. I have to add that currently ck2 is still more enjoyable for me personally, due to all the stuff that came with the expansions and especially the supernatural events currently absent in ck3, but I am pretty sure, that with 2 or 3 expansions ck3 will have an enormous amount of content.

    @@Greamzih Naval warfare was at it's height during the Greek/Roman eras and then died out almost entirely before re-emerging just prior to the industrial revolution. CK3 takes place in the interim period, when naval warfare was basically just a toned-down version of what existed during the Greek/Roman eras... ships ramming each other and boarding each other to capture. The Byzantines had an edge thanks to their Greek Fire weapon, but that was about it. Basically a "warship" was just a transport vessel designed to occasionally ram your enemies. For simplicity's sake, Paradox opted not to bother simulating naval combat as it would require putting more work into the game for very little gain.

    @Karan Sarkar ​@Eric Langlois Burning ships after landing is a story, even if it's true it's more of a show of extraordinary determination and confidence, not a normal thing. There were still some known battles (e.g. Battle of Svolder from a quick look at wiki) and who knows how many rumbles between small land owners in naval nations. Even if fleets did not exist, CK is mostly about roleplaying a small land owner trying to be a king, not an emperror with a big army on a payroll. I think, it would make sense to add naval levies or men-at-arms like units and naval combat to the game. Even if it's not historical, history is not learned from videogames.

    I'm still thinking about getting this game although at present it is unavailable in Australia due to a mix up which lead to refused classification possibly due to an administrative error. Latest reports say that this may be fixed within the next couple of days. It is available on XBox but not available on Steam until this gets resolved (and yes, I am playing on PC). I was a big fan of Paradox's _"Knights of Honor"_ and wish this game had more of that game's character in controlling battles, using strategy and building armies including using mercenaries and besieging castles and defending castles from sieges. Still, it looks interesting and I am leaning towards getting this game when it is finally available on PC in my region.

Now I have to wait until Monday. This looks awesome though. As a side note though, through Steam sales, I'm discovering a lot of game series that have been around for a while but I had not previously played that are so perfectly aligned with my interests, I'm stunned I hadn't noticed them before.. Crusader Kings is a great example - I've played these kinds of medieval war/grand strategy type games since the late 90's but missed CK until a few months ago. Xcom is another good example. I'm a big fan of both now.

    Not my type of game, however it's good to see complexity & options in video games.

    Holy crap I remember Descent vaguely. I’ve never knew what that game was called back when I played it as a young lad. Thank you 🙏
