Having played Crusader Kings 2, with all it's DLCs and put way too many hours in Crusader Kings 3, it's safe to say that this is by far some of the strongest content Paradox has released for the franchise in terms of tying systems together, creating an atmosphere and giving the player(s) agency.

The Iberian struggle itself is a great way to showcase not just old mechanics and giving them new purpose. For instance diplomatic characters have been given a significant new purpose with how befriending ruler characters drives the struggle in a conciliatory direction. This also undermines the tendency of making only non-vassal characters seemingly having much impact in terms of what players themselves might want to play as. In general you can have an impact regardless of your highest title, it more depends on the capabilities on your character(s), which I thoroughly enjoy. Royal Courts and Northern Lords did this to some extent as well, but in general I'd say this pack adds a whole new level of involvement for vassal counts and dukes that wasn't there prior, that can tip the balance of how an entire region develops without doing much, if any, conquest.

As for the atmosphere, everything from the music, to the new clothes, to the new cultures and religious feel very appropriate and are a very welcome addition.

Overall, I'd say this is a must-buy for the game, as it not only fleshes out old mechanics, but everything it adds is great.
