Crusader Kings III - Dev Diary #120 provides a preview of new features

The developers of Crusader Kings III have released a new Dev Diary, providing a glimpse into upcoming changes in the game. These changes consist of a variety of smaller adjustments aimed at improving the player experience. The focus is on addressing balance issues and introducing new challenges. We have summarized the key points of the Dev Diary for you.

Vassal Attitudes

A new feature in the game is the so-called Vassal Attitudes. It will now be possible to influence the attitude of your vassals and thereby improve or worsen your relationship with them. This can have an impact on their loyalty and tax revenue. To give players more influence options, new tools for dealing with vassal dissatisfaction are being introduced.

Mercenary Stationing

Mercenary army stationing is also being overhauled. It will now be possible to station them in your own provinces, allowing you to respond to conflicts more quickly. However, this will also be associated with higher costs. In addition, there will be restrictions on how many mercenaries can be stationed in a province.

Domain Limit Rebalancing

The Domain Limit Rebalancing aims to overhaul the restrictions on the size of your own realm. The goal is to give players more freedom in designing their realm while not affecting the game's balance. It will now be possible to hold more fiefs, but this will be associated with higher costs.

Improved Building Slots

The building slots are being revised. There will now be several types of buildings for each slot, each with different advantages and disadvantages. This should allow players to customize their realm more individually and according to their needs.

Rich Presence

With the introduction of Rich Presence, players will have more opportunities to share their game activities with others. The feature is part of the Discord integration and allows players to display their current activities in the game status. This makes it easier to find fellow players for multiplayer games and play together.

Improvements to Game Mechanics

In addition to the changes mentioned, further improvements will be made to the game mechanics. The personality information for characters will be expanded, it will now be possible to destroy artifacts and also introduce aniconism. Overall, the gameplay experience will be made even more challenging and immersive.

Overall, the upcoming update for Crusader Kings III promises many exciting new features. Fans of the game will certainly be eagerly awaiting its release.
