It’s complex, and CK2 isn’t for the faint-hearted, but if you stick with it and it’s overwhelming learning curve, it will shower you with rewards that bold deep into the human element of power – more exactly, power trips and the likes. Whether you are throwing parties to build a relationship with a foreign ally or maintain one with someone that has ties to the High Chiefdom of Pomerania, Crusader Kings 2 will relentlessly try to ruin your plans. Paying attention if your King likes you enough to help on the long run and keeping your vassals happy and unwillingly to form an independent faction barely scratches the surface. There are a ton of holy wars to take part in the medieval world of Crusader Kings 2, but the depth of political intrigue and the engrossing power struggles make CK2 a superb immersive experience that every strategy enthusiast should play.
