Love CK 3 content. I don’t think you sounded monotone at all. Personally I dislike when RUclips content creators talk so fast. I can only assume it’s to try to squeeze a certain amount of content into a certain length of video. I wish some of them would slow down a notch. Sometimes they hit so many points so fast that it makes it hard to give the information they are providing and second to marinate. But that’s just me. Appreciate the video and hope to see more in CK3 and other games like it.
I didn't even realize this channel was so small until you mentioned it cus the presentation was top notch. I really thought there was a good mix of information, analysis, and critque of the topic. Great vid
While they still need to stick the landing, I've really enjoyed what I've hear in all the Dev Diaries. It is good content amongst itself and lays a good foundation for thing to come that people really want. Trade and Religion being the most requested element which are both served well here and can hopefully be expanded on. All I can say is I hope they have a better release day trailer than their announcement trailer.
The sudden showcase announcement along with all of the big reveals outside of PDXcon was so bizarre. I think I was the most excited about age of wonders ironically enough They should have copied Gladiator frame for frame and inserted CK3 characters for maximum chaos energy
It’s 29.99 USD, but it’s definitely too high for an expansion regardless. I think the one staying point is that there seems to be far more free content coming with tours and tournaments
@@4Xtraordinaire what are they doing? I was like, finally an DLC that will be worth the price of 13€. But €30,- makes me not even consider getting it anymore. It was the same with royal court. I was thinking €20,- is a bit expensive for it but I can see it. I will just get it when it's 50% off. But then I looked again and saw it was €30,-. Again I lost all interest completely. For €30,- you better add something half the content of the base game at the least.
@@4Xtraordinaire 30 euro is way too much I eat for a week with that money Or buy 3 indie games that individually will give me more playtime than ck3 with all of its expansions inlcuding a new one
cheaper than a bag of weed or a night at the pub to make you wanna play a game you've already got a few hundred hours in. Better model than pay to win, microtransacations, loot boxes or just the old AAA of making a new game every couple years. Look at Stellaris, that game has been completly redone like 4 times. Plenty of value for money.
@@shacklock01 average player playtime of vic3 is less than 100 hours Bold of you to assume people have "couple of hundred hours" and that people live in places where for one pack of ciggs you can feed your whole famility for a month in another country
Your humility and awareness of your monotone voice, and wanting to improve is admirable! I don't think there's anything wrong with your voice/style, would definitely like to see more ck3 videos from you in the future. Perhaps a video of your own roleplay stories when the new dlcs come out would be interesting. Maybe roleplay as a hunter king, on his quest to hunt as many unique animals as he can, that would be a fun video!
Thanks for the video. I was certainly mistaken about what the DLC would be like. I thought it would be like northern lords, which you can't really feel the presence of since it's all events and decisions. If it's adding new mechanics, I might be more likely to buy it.
This video has a very sweet ending, you got me subscribed. : ) No worries about your voice! I think it's pretty chill, tho I'd see what's others opinion. I kinda like people who don't do a "RUclips Vlogger" with their voice. I think it's actually an underappreciated bonus to your videos. Yeah, now that I think of it, your voice is part of the reason why this video was so good. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to your content! ^^
Thank you for your kind words! It's been pretty hard to get clear feedback from the past 2 years as the channel has grown (Aside from criticism at the start), but audience engagement is one of my favorite parts of the hobby ❤
Very interesting video, a pleasure to hear you talk about the game, you totally sound like somebody who should have 50k subs at least. I would be interested in seeing more from you like this, analysing ck3 dev diaries. Keep it up!
I think all the dlc's for the game have been spot on, my favourite is royal court and tours & tournaments is my second, ck3 is a piece of art and only keeps getting better!
I don’t think I’m gonna move to the new version and just stay in 1.8. the main reason being they aren’t releasing actual expansions just a bunch of RP stuff that feel more like mods then actual official releases. And even worse it’s at a massive asking price. Why would I pay money to upgrade to a mediocre version when it breaks all of my mods. I’m basically paying money to *lose* content if I did so. Ck3 had the potential to be one of their most successful games but they are running it into the ground.
Sorry for the lack of clarification - I am using footage from CK3's launch because there is a lack of TT (Tours and Tournaments) footage, since, for whatever reason, the devs are very skittish when it comes to showing off gameplay. They may be more wary after Royal Court's fiasco
i really wish they did a Wonder/visit activity. really would like to visit Constantinople or Rome as vacation spots as a Viking, or just travel incognito in my own realm
The wonders were one of my favorite parts of CK2. They added a big boost to the immersion factor, and the memes you could generate by having a torture rack in your palace were delectable
dude your voice is fine, i understand what you mean about changing it for the audience but just know your voice is the way it is because it represents you and its not something to be ashamed of. Love ya ;]
Either there isn't enough content to justify the price or they've done a really bad job at marketing this expansion, when I saw the high price on steam I was hopeful for something really meaty to expand the game, but it looks like almost no content
Enjoyed the video. And don't be harsh on yourself. You have a skill and your are using it. Practice makes perfect. So looking forward to your future videos.
That announcement event was quite cringe 😉 On the other hand, the trailer for Tours and Tournaments was great, and I hope we'll get things like that in the future. Also, just discovered this channel, and it's great. Keep up the good work!
For the note at the end of the video, don’t remember exactly when I started following you. But I will say that City Lights has been a constant since I started using it. Would never play a game without it again if I had my druthers.
RUclips has been very bad at ads lately. I appreciate you watching them, but personally they are way too long and unfortunately there is not a lot in the ways of customization because the platform is finicky about pleasing advertisers
Feedback: Great background gameplay footage. Well structured content getting the info to the viewer quickly. Your voice is fine and as an Englishman, I sometimes struggle with American narrators, but good tone and structure of information. I think you’re doing a good job, so I’ve subbed and liked.
Don’t worry about your voice or humor. In fact, look at Moistcritical, monotone voice and dry humor is great in this oversaturated market. Keep making what you make and eventually your unique style will form naturally as you grow
Because i dont have the game, or the intention to have it. I'll wait till i can download it free(with viruses) but i prefer selling my personal info than buying a "game" and then the components of it.
After royal court debacle... I'm sceptic to every update. Everything is half baked. Don't get me wrong I have all dlc but I'm geting tired off expensive ideas without substance.
That's a completely valid critique. Paradox games have always had a gilded barrier to entry. Keeping up the same pricing policy that was one of Royal Court's biggest criticisms (Because many of the cultural aspects were free) was one of the wackiest decisions. I think if they put more time into the cultures themselves and not big projects like the 3D throne room generator, it would have been better received
I have a feeling you are overhyping it And it will be way more shallow and simple than presented in this video Probably just an event with 3 clicks away that gives modifiers and mana That will be extent of those changes
@@mercistephens7325 yea i was also called a pessimist when i said that imperator rome will be canceled after the backlash and too slow updates boy was i wrong, and boy was i wrong when i said first 3 dlcs didnt add really no substantial content in terms of mechanics and that updates are also coming out too slow sorry for being so pessimistic and wrong... oh wait, that was you!
@@Bleilock1 The first half of your comment is irrelevant and the second half is at best an opinion and at worst wrong too lol. But you're forgiven for being so wrong many others have been wrong as well.
No? I wasn’t exactly positive about Friends & Foes or Royal Court. You can see that by looking at my past coverage In fact, I’ve been overly critical of CK3 and their previous lack of transparency
I wish they would add in better artifacts and the ability to make your own like hiring a smith to make you a crown or sword and have these items have meaning. So far the only artifacts I've had are crap like a horse, a pile of shit, etc
I felt like I was building the ultimate lightsaber when playing CK2. Now I just hire some random blacksmith from Afghanistan to make me a masterwork scimitar

oh I watched this video thinking this was a huge channel! very high quality! good content
I've given up trying to compete with most of the other channels, and now I just try to be genuine with awkward humor and quick, informational videos
@@4Xtraordinaire that is surely the best path, good job
I would rather have tours and tournament than one focused on Greece. I would however like to have a favor pack for the Jerusalem area.
interesting; they're changing Asatru's Holy sites at 5:22 looks like dropping Jorvik and Kiev, for a danish one (can't spell that place) and Zeeland.
Isn’t that just gameplay on an older version of ck3 though?

I enjoy mod coverage also, especially with the Game of Thrones mod coming up.

ck3 definitely needs some love from paradox. it doesn't seem like its been 3 years bc of panasonic, but we need this dlc pack

I expect them to get around to Hinduism, Buddhism etc. later e.g. a DLC focused on the Indian subconinent states.

They occasionally put out free updates
Us console players don’t even have royal court DLC yet 😂

Clarity is one of the biggest advantages of having a droning voice!
I feel like some big sort of scheming DLC would be sick in CK3, loads of new ways to plot murder and imprison, so forth. “Ck3 Way of the Shadows”
“Ck3: Nefarious deeds”
CK3: Sussy Bakas
Loved the video bro 💯

I bought CK3 because i loved how CK2 was a strategy game with some RPG features, I did NOT buy CK3 to play an RPG with some strategy game features.
Love that PC is getting its second expansion pack while Xbox hasn’t gotten the first yet.
Consoles have always been gimped when it comes to ports. Civ 6 included
You remind me of Ion Hazzikostas
Not an insult
No, it's not weird. We had a fucking pandemic. People seem to forget that already.

You mean the shill of OPB*
God blessed with the algorithm fr
JRPG? sorry i am confused on what you mean by CK3 is a jrpg everything else is excellent thanks for the info
It was just a joke about CK3’s increasing amount of character customization and emphasis on character interaction
Someone got a paycheck ..... and don't ever call me a free-to-play player .... i paid for this shit
You think people are getting paid for this? You can check out my review, where I recommend not buying and waiting for a discount
I like your dry monotone voice. Some content creators are too much.
I'd like a middle east DLC.
I like what I see... but I'd rather they added imperial mechanics and merchant republics back into the game. Game just feels incomplete without them.

Honestly at this point its more worth waiting a decade after a pdx game comes out for a cheaper full experience thats actually worth playing.
hope its goin to be worth the $35 they are asking
we're getting 4 dlc for 35 but yeah you're right, im still not seeing my slavic flavor pack xD
