the secret is to just cheat while you learn to play. give yourself gold and troops and just figure out everything else first

Y’know, that’s how I learned to play strategy games as a kid so it’s even dumber I didn’t think of that this time

“play it right” has ruined my brain

I grew up on RPGs and strategy games, and I’ve tried and failed to play CK2 twice, and I don’t know why because it seems like everything I want.

CK2 is very nontraditional because losing land is really common and usually not a big deal at all. It's more about waxing and waning periods with regular massive internal revolts over medium feudal levies.

Saudi paid for a decade of like 2 shows a year, they'll get it

WWE, the company people here support wholeheartedly, has no moral conscience (contrary to what Steph may tweet) or desire to stop it or lessen the shows

As to how to play ck2; find the vassals screen. These are your vassals. See the button to bribe your vassals? Click it.

Drew striding away like an enormous badass (which he is!) after beating his opponent in a tough fight is so good.

Losing land is often cool and fine because you were probably too big in the first place. If you weren't then it gives you a new short term goal. Take your land back, kill the new ruler, and take his significant other. Bonus points for imprisoning his or her children through their adulthood while converting them before releasing them back into the world.

Same with last night when he put Dolph on his back and strolled out of there. They/he's doing a great job of being a legit badass and his body language, voice, delivery, everything is selling him as a badass.

If only Braun had been smart enough to try that instead of cash in a month in advance, destroy his opponent 3 separate times he could have cashed in on at any time and won, and lost the case entirely because of a clusterfuck no contest
