My guess is the king got super stressed (I wonder how that could have happened, all his family just suddenly died), and there is a rare event where you can kill one of your kids in a stress event without being sadistic.
I think you can recruit Shrek if you leave him alive. He’s not like other random characters that disappear once you take a decision. Just click recruit to court or marry him with one of your courtiers
You can recruit any characters as long as they're willing and they will be willing almost all the time if they're in your realm. They don't dissappear if you recruit them, they only dissappear if they have no use anymore.
@@kaanmuhammedgunes1879 what I meant is that in some events, characters disappear “without a trace” to avoid filling the game with unnecessary NPCs. The Shrek event apparently doesn’t kill him
Wow, I didn’t realize they had your character moving through the real world on these trips now. Makes it look and feel much more authentic leaving your land in the care of someone else while you galavant around as head of state, very cool!
As for the king murdering his son, it’s likely because he hit lvl 2/3 stress. If a character gets to that level, they can either become a lunatic or kill their heir.
To be honest, it kinda looks like your usual get-the-throne-via-a-murder-spree playthrough, except you replaced one of the murders (the king) with the wedding. In fact, you made things much harder for yourself because if you just killed him normally your heir's heir would just inherit England from Margaret after her death and you wouldn't need to go murdering all your own children.
I don't know if this is possible, but with the new travel mechanics it would be really cool if it also affected kidnapping schemes. Like if you time your plot to fire while your target is traveling that it'd be easier, or the game having to transport your new prisoner over the land back to your domain where during the trip they could potentially escape
It works exactly like that if they didn't hire any professionals. They get a nerf in scheme resistance when they're traveling through certain areas, which during that time makes them more vulnerable and that might trigger your scheme instantly. It will also mention that your scheme was triggered because they're traveling, as seen on the end of the video.
There should be a way for RPG purposes, for a scheming couple to take out the family of whichever person is in line to inherit, while keeping the spouse alive.
Let me preface this rant with saying that I really enjoyed the video and this is directed at the game itself rather than Snap Strategy. IMO red weddings should have extreme repercussions for christian and especially catholic characters. I know ck3 isn't necessarily a historically accurate game but you'd literally get crusaded if you dared to do something like that during a sacrament. You should be the enemy #1 for the entirety of the catholic world. It's literally worse than a war crime and the response you get is akin to "hey pls dont do that okay?". I guess what I'm trying to say is that christianity in CK3 is a pathetic, neutered version of what it actually was, excommunication isn't severe enough (it does next to nothing) and the pope is just a glorified sugar daddy that might as well be replaced by a "Free money" button. In a game called CRUSADER Kings. Why? Just so we can have a pseudo-GoT setting? I really don't like it.
Will you have a tours and tourney review/thoughts video up on the 11th? What you like, what you dont like, changes you would like to see is subsequence patches?
technicaly your are supposed to hold a grand wedding in 3 years, so inbetween you have a little chance of getting a child. you will rule as a child obviously, but you are a king and you can choose your traits then. (you only have to survive several factions xD)
Probably could get your character to take the throne, or at least being the spouse to the ruler. You could arrange your sister or daughter to marry the last surviving male heir while being already married to the first female heir
I wondered how you would get the crown directly from the wedding. It doesn't transfer to unborn kids, so not even if you were suppling the wife and the husband got killed after he impregnated her would it count.
Kev II got a bad educational trait because you select intrigue education for a pensive child. I know you want to make an intrigue run, but it's a missed opportunity to get a good stewardship or learning character imo. Besides, you can still plots and pick some intrigue perks while not having intrigue education traits.
6:17 How do you have thousands of gold as a 2 county duke? Somehow you gained over 2000g in 10 years, even if you did not spend a penny and you kept making 14.5g per month you should be hundreds of gold short.
I find it stupid that you can technically unlock the bloody wedding in your diplomacy lifestyle without the dlc but then can't do it because you need the dlc
If you do nothing for 10 years with a 14.5 ducat income, you'd get 14.5 * 12 * 10 = 1740 ducats, + asking for the pope for money + some good steward events, you could definitely make that money. Or, you know. He could also just cheat it in.
Yeah they should have had the option to take out the family and not her. Reminds me of the cinematic trailers. Edit: where the royal court release? trailer implied that the dark haired queens father was murdered at her wedding
Yeah, played now a few rounds with the new DLC. Do your Games now too, kinda get more then usual "weired" ? Like your NPC Shemes that make absolute no sense. Have the same. 3 Playsets and in all 3 of them (startet 867) Alfred never becomes King of Wessex, for example. Murder Shemes that make absolute more then no sense. In 1 Playtrough that Lotrhering King directly Killed his Affair of. (Decent Charackter if u can get ur hands on her first) but in EVERY other Game he tries to get her. (Like Normal) I think some paths the AI took before, are now a little rigged - but idc got my Duellist Sigismund with 100 Prowress from the Imperial Fist Dinasty, and im Happy =D
That was sooo cool, but shouldnt you just made a "muder feast" instead? Arent "bloody weddings" suposed to wipe out everybody? If you went into the trouble of murdering EACH troublesome child before, and only the King was in your way, it made more sense if you just murder him... On the other hand, maybe your real name is Michael Corleone...🍝
Unlucky with education? You just probably forgot to assighn a guardian, or chose a wrong study focus, half way through education. Otherwise its nearly impossigle go get an education that low even with a teribble tutor and guardian.
