Great fun but Incomplete
The game is great fun, but by itself feels really incomplete (a common complaint with Paradox games)

Despite that, it's very enjoyable, with engaging and immersive gameplay that's kept me coming back to it death after death, and day and day.
The Pros
- Fun
- Big numbers make brain happy
- Roleplay elements
The Cons
- Strongly needs DLC support

Great game
The game itself as a lot of content to play through and you can put yourself in many different scenarios that make it feel like a totally different game. Or more like you've bought 5 DLC's just from the base games content!
It is hard to start though which I am (I hope) getting past but even so it's really enjoyable
The Pros
- Wise range of content
The Cons
- Hard start

It's an interesting game.Starting with a weak lord, its descendants can become emperors of the empire, and various events that can be held during the process are enjoyable.

Excellent game
Game is a very good strategy game to get you thinking outside the box for a solution. There is a ton of reading that should be done in order to effectively play the game, but well worth the time.
The Pros
- Lots of ways to win
The Cons
- Lots of reading to even know what is going on.

Clear improvement over CK2 but still has a long way to go
CK2 was one of the best games I have played (despite it being renowned as being a spreadsheet simulator), providing me with endless hours of fun. CK3 combines improvements in newer Paradox titles with CK2s format to produce something that is even better. Despite having much more content at launch though, CK3 does require upcoming DLC to match the same level of entertainment as CK2 currently has.
The Pros
- New systems
- Feels a bit more game-y
- Better graphics
The Cons
- Feels a bit more game-y
- Requires DLC
- Graphical style
- Multiplayer

Best Game of 2020 (Probably)
This game is hard to recommend to new players due to the learning curve however if you have even a slight interest in playing it then just sit down with it for a couple hours because trust me fucking around in this game has organically created some of the best player stories ive experienced. Paradox games can be a bit pricey with all the (sometimes necessary) dlc but I mean you're on cdkeys for a reason. Also you have mods and its pretty much the only modern game with meaningful achievements.
The Pros
- The Gameplay
- Achievements
- Mods
The Cons
- Price
- Multiplayer can be annoying

Good but obviously going to get plenty of paid for DLC
Crusader Kings 3 is definitely a worthy successor to Crusader Kings 2. Although lacking in content compared to Crusader Kings 2 with all DLC it will likely be added to with multiple paid for DLCs as time goes on to flesh out the game - just frustrating that some things that shoudl be there from the start will likely be added later for extra cash.... but cdkey prices help with that!

Great Sequel to a great Grand Strategy game
Crusader Kings 3 is definitely a worthy successor to Crusader Kings 2. Although lacking in content compared to Crusader Kings 2 with all DLC it has a wealth of content for any vanilla Paradox grand strategy game. With all its interesting systems it can only go up with the addition of new free and paid content.
The Pros
- Characters look great and add lots of depth
The Cons
- Lacking ability to play as some government types as of now

Amazing Time
I got this game after playing over 100hours on a friends copy, It is unbelievably fun and there are so many different play styles you can try, especially creating your own ruler and creating a massive warmonger or a diplomatic peace maker, if you pay attention the dynasty mechanics it is interesting to see how each successor either builds upon or can completely destroy all the work the previous generation put in. It is really fun
The Pros
- Story Crafting Replay ability
The Cons
- A lot of trial and error to learn mechanics
