Crusader Kings 3: without any DLC

So far paradox have learned from their mistake that was Imperator, and we got a great base game.
After 100 hours and 70% of all achivements, I can say its a solid base game.

Pros:
>Map is bigger, much more detailed
>Characters look great
>Lifestyle is great, how you can get perks now
>Legacy, it made me really put my own family members into powerfull positions
>Cadet branches, add some colour to the whole game
>Reformation of the faith, its really great, I hope we will get more options later

Meh:
>The council has no power, it feels bland
>Converting, fabricating claim is now not % based/month like in ck2
>Not all unique buildings can be converted. I captured Constatinapolis as a pagan it would have been nice to convert the Hagia Sofia into a pagan temple.
>Becoming feudal, is hard at the beginning
>Technology, I finished all my tech by 1350, needs more technology to research

Bad:
>AI sometimes is really really stupid
>Going back to the no more % for converting, In late game the world just stagnates, since a priest with 41 learning can only convert a province in like 50 years. The penality because of development is too high
>Instant navies. It was a bad idea. In ck2 you had to plan ahead with your navies, not like here where they automaticaly teleport to ships.
>Shattered retreat. I hate it, an option to turn it off like in ck2 would be better.
>Armies dont have flanks anymore.It made battles way to easier, and simple.
>Minor things are missing: Artifacts, Societies, Great Works anywhere, just the two starting date...

Overall it is a good base game, I liked it, but overall its not like Ck2. I hope that with time and with DLCs this will be as good or even better than CK2 was
