Are you playing the remake or the original one? Or is there only one on PC?

Only the remake is available on PC.

It’s the remake, i believe that’s the only one available for PC though. I may be wrong though

Aw dang, I missed the point at which you reached a full year of these, belated congratulations on that

This sounds fantastic. I’ll have to try it out. Years ago, I tried using hyperspin, but found it to be a lot of work and eventually gave up. This looks to be much simpler, which is exactly what I wanted.

  1. You’ve gotten way-the-fuck better at this whole thing in the year or so you’ve been doing it
  2. You can’t trick me; that’s just outside
Blackmist,

The weird thing is, it’s not actually that different to how it looked and played on PS3.

Meanwhile there’s people considering an upgrade for that 4080 Ti…

Sidhean,

Outside looked a little different back in 2013, is all :3

  1. It’s definitely been a journey. I’m glad to have improved
  2. I’ve been caught. I crashed a boat into a shoreline for this photo. For real though Naughty Dog and Rockstar both know how to make freakishly realistic looking games for the time

Does anyone know how NOT to have all of your bloodlines end due to excessive incest in this game? All of my characters are too mentally challenged to reproduce. It seems like a really odd narrative choice by the devs.

Wolf,

It seems like a really odd narrative choice by the devs.

Odd, but surprisingly historically accurate.

Maybe the dev’s are secretly tying to get you to understand that you are playing as the bad guys and them eventually dying off due to their own disgusting traits is a feature and not a bug?

Yes, but these were all through first cousin marriages which were only legal if the Pope gave permission. What most CK3 players do is marry their kids so they don’t lose shit-tons of land because of the stupid partition system they are using.

Wolf, (edited )

If you read it, it was much more than first cousin marriages. There were brothers marrying sisters, Uncles marrying their nieces, first cousins, second cousins…if there was a type of incest, you can bet your ass a ‘Royal Highness’ has practiced it at some point.

What most CK3 players do is marry their kids

I hope you mean to say that they marry their kids to each other, though that’s only relatively (get it?) better than marrying your own kids. Not a sustainable long term sexual practice at any rate.

so they don’t lose shit-tons of land because of the stupid partition system they are using.

Not losing out on land and wealth is precisely why Consanguinity was practiced among ‘royalty’. You are basically mad at your historical game for being historically accurate.

@LorIps@lemmy.world avatar

The historical reason for cousin marriage were generally to cement alliances between relatives and to keep land in the family should the male line of some house die out, those aren’t the reason you marry relatives CK3.

In CK3 you marry relatives because you want your children to be herculean beautiful geniuses and to stop your daughters weak claim from becoming a problem.

I generally don’t really like such list articles as they are mostly sensationalist and cheap, this being the perfect example of one. In the case of CK we are not talking about inbreeding in the Egyptian dynasties (which had religious rather than practical reasons). Hawai’i seems similar though I know to little about their nobility to judge. The section they have about Roman inbreeding was honestly just terrible and completely divorced from reality. I am not aware of any marriage between siblings among European nobility (between like 600-now) (other than Jean V of Armagnac that I just found on Wikipedia and which upon first read sounds like an extreme exception). Could you name another one?

Wolf,

Well that’s clearly not accurate.

to stop your daughters weak claim from becoming a problem.

What does this mean?

Obviously. The point is that inbreeding among douchebag families that fancied themselves better than others (Royals) has been extremely common throughout history- Including medieval Europe.

I am not aware of any marriage between siblings among European nobility (between like 600-now),Could you name another one?

Julien and Marguerite de Ravalet they were executed for it though.

Really, First Cousin marriage was only slightly better than sibling marriage anyway considering that a single family (dynasty) would often marry close relatives for hundred of years- it was nearly the same thing when talking about genetic diversity.

For example Charles II of Spain’s family tree was fucked. His parents, grandparents, and great grandparents were all related to each other. His Mom was his Dads Niece, making his Grandma his Aunt, His Maternal Great Grandfather was also his Paternal Great Uncle, and 3 of his 4 of great grandparents were products of incest in the first place. His Coefficient of Inbreeding (COI) was 0.25, which is the same as it would be if his parents were brother and sister.

I’ve thought way too much about incest for one day. Idk if this will help you play your game better or not, but I think this is about as deep of a dive as I can stomach for now.

@LorIps@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, you never played Crusader Kings.

Wolf,

No lol. I like strategy games but I loathe the Crusades and Kings, so I don’t think it would be something I would be interested in.

ZombiFrancis,

I played CK2 more than CK3, but mainly I recall a successful dynasty winds up being too desireable. It’s not about the blood relation, it’s about the… huge tracts of land!

So while you can control it somewhat within your own realm and dynasty, my reliable go-to strategy was always marry Lowborns with good traits. Let/hope the stats make up for lack of title and opinion hits.

That’s really kind of you! Don’t expect to be inundated, it’ll be a weekly thing for whoever is in the fediverse scene, loves gaming, tech and so on, and wishes to contribute articles. I think it’s fun, so I’m glad you gave it a nod of approval!

Thanks :)

Horny mod for CK3 would be funny.

My playing style is different depending on my horniness

    If I had to identify a game that radically changed the public perception of videogames, that would probably be The Legend of Zelda.
    It was one of the earliest examples of modern gaming, changing the game design from an “arcade” standard to something that was more suited for home consoles.
