I do have a few gripes though, but nothing major. There are many different ways you can approach the game, and you'll need to vary your tactics several times over the course of the game as circumstances dictate. You need to scour the world for suitable mates, deal with unruly vassals or ungrateful lieges, put down regular rebellions, come up with tentative justifications to go to war, cozy up to the pope, and so on.

The comparisons with Football Manager et al are pretty much spot on this is a definite case of substance over style. But if the above hasn't put you off, CK2 is a compelling game. The graphics are minimal (you just stare at a map the whole time), battles consist of little more than numbers decreasing for each side and a single game will takes hours upon hours to finish. That said, it's DEFINITELY not one for everyone. But if the above hasn't put you off, CK2 is a compelling I never played the original Crusader Kings, but Crusader Kings 2 had me hooked instantly.

a very solid game, cant wait to see what mods and. i also enjoyed the new intrigue system within CK2, especially as your character got older they got more numerous and more violent i should add. i found the system was pretty similar to Sengoku which i found pretty interesting, had it gone down the old Europa Universalis 3 construction method for example which was pretty much have a lot of money and build and build till everything is maxed out which helps with balance. i found the system was pretty similar to Sengoku which After playing many paradox interactive games with Crusader Kings 1 being one of them, i found myself excited for CK2 and boy did it not disappoint! i found the game out of the box with immediate patches downloaded and installed to be very stable, ive yet to encounter a bug with the game which helps add to a much smoother game to play.
