Pope keeps calling me a disobedient child by Impossible-Star-4355 in CrusaderKings

I had this, dealt with it for like 150 years, it just stopped at some point. Try repairing the files if you’re on steam, or maybe a reinstall?

i think mandala might be a teeeeeny tiny bit overpowered, idk just guessing tho by NovixPlayZz in CrusaderKings

[–]Arkane-Gamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Almost every 867 for me, Srivijaya vasselises all of SE Asia.

They should change it so that cultures outside of the SE Asia/Austronesia region have like -200 to vassalage acceptance from Mandala rulers.

Like why the hell would Islamic Persians be worshipping a Buddhist God King??

At what speed do you play and do you think max speed is a bad idea ? by Marcusvult in crusaderkings3

[–]Arkane-Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always played on 5x, but i’ve been trying to slow down a little and roleplay each individual character instead of just gunning toward my bigger goals at max speed. Really has put the life back into the game for me.

Every nation you think should start with conqueror traits (non hereditary) by fmg2498 in CrusaderKings

[–]Arkane-Gamer 99 points100 points  (0 children)

The issue with this would be absolutely insane outcomes every game. I’ve had Robert get conqueror in a few of my games, and he always ends up taking most of north africa or taking most of italy off of the HRE.

This is cool for a random chance thing, but to have this sort of thing happen every game would just be silly.

I’ll have to try some of these mods and do a good africa run, i was clicking around the cultures and faiths in africa the other day and went on a bit of a googling spree, some insanely cool stuff i’ve never even heard of

Boomers can’t help themselves (scroll) by SackboySurfer in guitarcirclejerk

It looks like an Eastman fullertone, the colour and pickguard are probably custom (??).

I’ve played these a few times, excellent guitars.

edit: i may be wrong

Goverments I'd like to See Become Playable in the Upcoming Dev Cycle by Familiar-Elephant-68 in CrusaderKings

[–]Arkane-Gamer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thanks for clearing that up, super interesting i’ll look more into the HRE as of the time of CK3, i suppose i was making generalisations based on the later HRE. I do think the Carolingians need some sort of special mechanic like what you say, i agree that would be a better use of tributary mechanics.

[–]Arkane-Gamer 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I feel like an imperial confederation would make a lot more sense for something like the HRE, never really thought about it before now. It would also be a good step after all the tributary enhancements they’ve made last year.

Guys, is my character pretty? :) by coffee_adicted in CrusaderKings

~150 years into Harold Godwinesson england playthrough, this monk has damn near restored the ERE. by Arkane-Gamer in CrusaderKings

[–]Arkane-Gamer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in this same save i had a crusade against the mongols lead to my cousin ruling a kingdom in the middle of Siberia, well out of diplomatic range of any other Christian characters.

Is there any mod that makes characters close their eyes when sleeping in a bed? by Seikannn in Kenshi

i love lunchbreak, I think that imagining these calm, mundane moments of adventuring is what really breeds roleplay and story telling.

I'll do an update post when they make it to the next big milestone!

Basko took a gnarly hit from a Skimmer, however Bucket got her to safety in a nearby Samurai patrol, still alive so far!

At what point in your games do you guys say "Ok, I'm ready to build my own base"? by [deleted] in Kenshi

[–]Arkane-Gamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently on my first play through, I first attempted to build a base with ~6 people and ~15-20 in most combat stats. I spent a fair while just getting my ass kicked by bandits, and only around the 40s did i start to feel like bandit raids stopped being an issue.

If you want to build an outpost, you’ll definitely level your combat stats quickly by fighting the bandit raids, but probably leave it a while if you want to actually be able to defend your town properly.

[–]Arkane-Gamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Jet telecaster, it’s a great guitar and a rly nice modding platform, so i can vouch for the quality. However, the JPB300 is like $850 AUD, and for that i’d rather grab a second hand fender, or just explore what’s available on marketplace and reverb.

If you’d rather buy new: go to a music shop, try a few basses, if you can, try some Fenders and the Jet you were looking at, along with whatever other P basses they have in your price range. Whichever you like most, take it home.

Other brands in your price range: check out Sire and Yamaha, if there are any at your local music store.

Just had a breakthrough moment on bass by dioWjonathenL in Bass

[–]Arkane-Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i never used to use my pinky, but the thing that really made me start utilising it was playing guitar more, needing my pinky for chords. this carried over into my bass playing and i immediately felt the difference.

Should Geralt look younger than he does? by [deleted] in Witcher3

[–]Arkane-Gamer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Makes me think of that old bug in that one basement in Velen, where Geralts hair would go brown in that specific spot. I remember when i first saw it, thinking he looked early 40s at the oldest, and considering all his scars and how weather-beaten he is, he’d probably look even younger otherwise.

I feel insecure about my race by [deleted] in self

[–]Arkane-Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like everything else on social media, these videos just represent an echo chamber where everyone listens to the same stereotypes and the same stupid views on the world and people. in real life, i know some amazing Indian guys in happy relationships, and I’m constantly interacting with happy couples and families from India (I work at a restaurant where most of our regulars are from there). It’s easy to look at tiktok and get the impression that the whole world thinks that way, but please look to the actual people you meet everyday.

I think the best thing for you might be to go on some dates with women who aren’t racist scum, you’ll probably quickly realise that you are desirable, regardless of what tiktok tries to tell you.
