Boy oh boy, if you thought hoi4 was bad, well you ain't seen nothing yet. Crusader Kings, commonly shortened to CK, is a game with the first one being boring, the second one being good, and the third having some potential. The game, being set in the time period of 769-1453 in the case of Ck2, means that there's some weird stuff going on, including religious intolerance and forced marriage. Of course, you can also play as the victims of this, PROVIDED YOU HAVE THE RIGHT DLC! Yep, you need DLC to play as Muslims. Honestly, the games themselves are fine, but the problem is always the fanbase, some salty 13-year old fascist complaining about the removal of Deus Vult from Ck3. At this point, there are 2 kinds of Ck players, someone who just kinda wants to see a nice dynasty grow and do some medieval roleplay, and some actual racist, who probably breaks his computer every time his dynasty is inherited by a gay person or a woman. Anyway, the game is fine, just stay away from multiplayer, at all costs. Oh and the reddit has 0 context in the titles so much that the titles of the reddit posts got its own subreddit.
Person 1: "I like Crusader Kings."
Person 2: "oh cool, Deus Vult"
Person 1: "you have ten seconds to leave before I pulverise you."

A black hole of time, do not venture close if you value productivity. Watch as the most virtuous person succumbs to murdering children for land and money. 10/10 will play for hours on end
"I should play Crusader Kings 2 and learn more about medieval times" *two hours later* "GOD, why wont this 12 year old marry my 56 year old king!? I only murdered her father and sold her mother into slavery!"
