I had him murdered as quickly as possible. Turns out that he was next in line after my bride to be. Months before her 16th birthday, she was murdered-by the same man who had helped me murder her father, ensuring she would inherit it. I had my eye on a particular duchy and was all set up to marry the woman who would inherit it. In this case, my heir inherited much of the island. When your character dies, you simply play-on as the heir. That son took over the kingdom when his father died, becoming my new character-fundamentally, this is a game about achieving your goals as a player through successive generations of dynastic leadership. I was trying to make my dynasty the rulers of Ireland, though my first ruler became a eunuch right after his wife gave birth to a son. I was playing in Ireland, known to fans as "noob island" as it's a little easier to start off there, isolated from the rest of the region.
It didn't take long in my game of Crusader Kings III to reach a moment of jaw dropping drama.
This game leans far away from that image. It's fitting for a game that works hard to be approachable enough that new players will get to experience the unique joys of this medieval sandbox when it is released on September 1st.Ĭrusader Kings has become one of those games that's synonymous with being esoteric. When Paradox game director Henrik Fåhraeus described Crusader Kings III, he talked about it as a medieval soap opera, discussing its drama in the way that high schoolers talk about "drama." Crusader Kings III is all about character, he said, but a lot of those characters might fit as comfortably on the CW as they would in a Shakespeare play. Normally when people talk about Crusader Kings, they talk about incest, murder and Glitterhoof the talking horse.
