Is there a more bookmarks mod that doesn't bloat the map? I wouldn't mind map bloat if it was relevant to the area I'm playing but it angers me that I need to have a million characters in the far east slowing things down to play the Alexiad start in More Bookmarks +

Where are the anime mods? Serious question
There's what, one chink mod that adds 2d characters from Azur Lane and that's it
Why isn't there a full replacement at least for 3d anime heads? That Skyrim mod has all their furry races in the game so it can't be that hard to mod this kind of thing

I loved CK2 - my favourite strategy game of all time.I also loved CK3 when I played it a couple years back.
But I really cannot justify the price tag of £120. Sure, I can buy it without the DLC but let's be honest I have played enough paradox games to know I won't be getting a full experience.
Is there a way I can buy the game but not the DLC and still play it like with CK2
>>
>>1874292
Yes, you can pirate only the DLCs like every other Paradox game, but honestly they aren't too significant, half of the DLCs are "regional flavor packs" or whatever the hell they call them that don't affect your game unless you play in their designated regions. There only have been 3 full fledged DLCs so far which save for the latest one have been kind of inconsequential. Still, just pirate DLCs.

I dislike how easy it is to stack buffs and shit and have every character live up to 75-80, I handicap myself by never building into plague resistance so it balances out a bit

>>1874282
my guess is since the characters are 3D they require a lot of work to do which other autists are ready to do for their favorite mods like the khajit or elves but nobody wants to sink time into making them anime

>>1874292
buy the base game CKIII on cdkeys or wherever for cheap then go to cs.rin.ru thread of the game, download the DLCs in the thread and creamapi.dll, i've done it for years for not just paradox games but many many other. most recently total war warhammer 3

Albania is literally unplayable, the provinces all have a "backwater" modifier that make it nearly impossible to generate any income and you can't remove it until you get 50 development in the Albanian provinces.

What would you guys do for a Hungarian run? What is the dream of the Hungarian people? I really want to do a run where I make a unique Hungarian culture with Hunnic heritage because Hungarian culture doesn't get to keep horse archers. But beyond that I don't know what my goals should or would be.

something's borked with admin government and the innovations for some reason

Well in this case im just goofing about and trying all the new Byz stuff as an immortal since they decided to add it. I capped out at 20 kids before the game force stopped it. I spent the first 100 years or so just chilling on Cyprus as a longtime spy master putting my kids onto themes and murdering many Fatimids.

Immortal is nice to play if you want to take a break from going insane cause the child you groomed to be great dies cause they decided to eat plants on the side of the road, which happened 3 times in the character i played before this.

What I really want is the ability to make custom ethnicities, or at least the ability to choose what your people look like when you make a hybrid culture. I know the agot mod make it so that the dragon family always has white hair and purple eyes so it should be theoretically possible.

Choosing the Radical / Fundamentalist school when forming Adoptionism gives you an extremely kino religion, really very OP.
The downside is that all other so-called "Christians" will see you as evil. Not that that matters for Iberia.
Main issue is it puts you at risk of Crusades.

>>1874490
That's why I never do adoption (or if I do I disinherit them) I like looking through my character's lineage and seeing that they are descended from the heroes of old.
>>
>>1874490
Uhm... that's not what it means. Adoptionism is a faith in game.

It historically referred to non-trinitarian Christian movements that rejected the notion that Jesus was *always* and eternally God from the beginning of time (which is the orthodox stance) - and rather, that he was adopted by God.

Moderates held positions more similar to mainstream Christianity.
The believed at some point, maybe at baptism, crucifixion, or some other significant time - God adopted Jesus to be his chosen Son, and therefore to become of God.
Jesus became God, but the Son is lesser than the Father. This is based on the Bible, John 14:28 where Jesus says "the Father is Greater than I".

Radicals rejected that Jesus was ever anything more than human. He was chosen by God for his special purpose, to bring salvation, to be his representative on Earth. But he was nothing more than a human, and they view God as indivisible, and so no Father/Son/Spirit division can exist. They viewed worship of Jesus as idolatry.

Hope that helps.

Compared to CK2, there are lots of things to do in peace time. I especially like tours and grand weddings. However CK3 is in dire need of trade routes (silk road is a must but there should be more "dynamic" trade system), religion flavor and warfare rework. I want to believe that trade, silk road and nomads are the next focus of big DLC. China should be stay as an interaction. Adding more provinces to the game would be the worst idea. I also seriously don't understand why paradox didn't add "tributary-related/give me your money" cbs to the game.

It can be hard if you're a Christian in the middle of Europe. Also I just don't like blobbing. I have an empire I want to build at the start of every game and I never feel all that motivated to expand beyond that.

Although I did do a campaign where I did do that, I concurred almost all of Europe and gave the individual duchies to my family members so they wouldn't ever lose them. They went on to get eastern Europe, Hungary and the entire Byzantine empire.

This is only a religious map, but every single piece of land that is my religion (besides Britannia and Egypt is held by my dynasty members. I got and insane amount of renown. What I really learned from this is that having lots of independent dynasty members is much more valuable than owning that land for yourself. Also I should add that I don't think you can give administrative vassals independence, so the landless strategy might be good for that.

Empire is dead. The goddess-empress (Hurculean, Beautiful, Cannibal, Albino, Lustful, Vengeful, some negatives for balance, don't remember which ones, maximum dread) of Iceland, Ireland and England, Queen of Jerusalem, died after ruling for nearly sixty years, shortly after returning from Crusade. Her Heir then got plague and died right after getting married, and the dynasty fragmented into a bunch of warring states between cousins and the empress' numerous bastards. Just wasn't the same without my battle waifu, so I threw in the towel. Probably going to build a back water sultanate next time I feel like wasting 40 hours.

Started a new game today as a serb duke of duklja but I swore fealty to the Basileus and made Ragusa/Dubrovnik my primary title which makes me the governor of Dubrovnik. Fun run so far though he's 65 and not long for this world, i'll continue as the daughter because she's the most competent and the son is an unrecognized bastard. Stewardmaxxed to make this run easy as it's my first time playing around with the new mechanics but they're really too easy and you have to handicap yourself to not become the Basileus. Anyway seems like now the AI blobs pretty decently since it often spawns Conquerors which I think is alright as it somewhat prevents border gore while also sometimes the blobs collapse.

I've never actually looked at Venice before, I thought for sure they would've made it a at least a duchy-level republic with only city holding by default. Oh well, maybe eventually they'll do what AGOT does and have one big city with each major district acting as its own holding.

don't, its bloated buggy shit that makes the game even less fun, so many issues, like i don't even know where to begin. it's like they're trying so many different ideas and it all just meshes into a monstrosity of half-baked features and 100s of bugs.

They're both super bloat, but Weight of the Crown at least had more activity, changing how development worked and some more granularity.
Sinews of War added a lot of features but so many of them are automatic systems that play by themselves, so you still end up playing the regular game, with just some different modifiers.
Both of them don't really change the main economic/military/character engine; I gave them a 50-year/2 generation try and just returned to more lightweight mods

Also how the hell do you release the pope as a vassal

I've never done it in CK3 but in CK2 you just had to create an antipope and then install them to the papacy while you're an emperor.

Going Admin is so nice for Northern Italy. Just Genoa and Venice alone give me 30 gold a month and thats with the early start. I know we've all hated it since release but with the inclusion of the admin government they really need to rework confederate partition even more now. It almost feels like you're doing it wrong if you stick with that succession law even for your first character. It punishes people that want to stick with feudalism too much.

>>1876200
I dont think the Pope can be a vassal? Can you click his portrait in the Catholic religion screen and give him a title?
>>
>>1876204
His only title left is the Papacy itself, but trying to grant him the title or using the decision just makes him independent
>>
>>1876206
I believe that means the Pope is hard coded to not be a vassal.

I believe this decision is the only way. It lasts for 10 years and I have no idea if you can repeat it as ive never done it before. There is also the building in the scholar camp that lets you convert individual people as you travel.

>How do you farm renown as an admin realm?

just stack intrigue and intrigue focus the scheming one, marry off your children more strategically so their children become heirs with a bit of planning and small nudges in the form of murders and assassinations. murder emperors or kings spouses and then when they are single marry them to your children, fabricate hooks to make it easier beforehand, etc. youll get renown even if someone of your dynasty is [rank] by marriage
>>
>>1876239
>The Choose a New Destiny

this and adventurer is cool that they added in, the powercreep is still as easy as ever but its at least new ways to play. they now need to stop fucking around and seriously add republics/steppe nomads and expand or better said rework catholicism with the papacy and anti popes
>>
>>1876242
I wish they would rebalance that though. I can play a Merc who turns the tide of every war they join and is max rank in both prestige and piety and yet my family is obscure. Maybe an option to gain renown as one of the options for the hooks you get for doing jobs. Kinda like you're asking them to spread the good word of your family.

Arabs aren't much of a threat anymore but the mongols are getting close and have an 80k army with the Great Khan still alive. Would be wild to save Jerusalem from Arabs only to lose it to Mongols.

I hate how women are always benefactors for crusades (because most men are secondary heirs to something making them ineligible), they shouldn't even be options for it.

Yeah it is stupid. If they made primogeniture available earlier it would improve that problem and be more realistic with second and third sons available for crusader kingdoms. Women did have an outsized influence in Jerusalem compared to other places though. They'd get to rule after their husbands died and some other sucker would have to marry them for the titles. Probably why things went to shit.

There is absolutely no reason to declare war for money when you can just conquer shit for the same effort. Paradox need to tone down the power fantasy all across the board if they have plans to include something like this.
