how does ck3 compare to 2 these days? i have ~700 hours on ck2 but never bothered to try out the sequel
There are a lot of quality of life improvements in ck3 and a few new fun mechanics, but overall it's way too easy and lacking in flavor or immersion. Once you've played one country, you've played them all.
All PDX games are too easy and bland these days.
Unfortunately it really is cause it hasn't gotten the 10+ years of dlc updates yet
They really seem to struggle to get an AI that can actually play their games
Honestly that’s understandable, strategy AI is hard.
But at the same time, at least with Stellaris, modders are fixing glaring obvious mistakes with like config files and shit, and raising the difficulty of the AI significantly, so they’re also not doing all they could be.
I think they’re held back by needing to maximize the computers(and consoles) that can run the game for corporate. AI mods often come with a performance hit and their AI doesn’t seem to be multithreaded so it’s just one core churning away
Nah some of these mods do stuff like literally just change one variable that the devs incorrectly set, and never fix despite numerous updates.
I found the Iberian Struggle to be pretty flavorful and challenging, quite enjoyed it!
