They have been posting dev diaries for over a year now with no end in sight for the day 1 DLC and have shadily changed the release date from "Coming Soon" to "To Be Announced" and despite every diary being filled with "Date when" they refuse to give any information.

Yesterday on Dev Post #77 I quoted a response from another steam user quoting a moderator (Two year old) and in response since they didn't like my response nor the other user they decided to permanently ban me from the CK lll Community.

No clue what happened to the other guy but all i know is this a bunch of children who can't take criticism or being questioned and will remove you by force if they don't like what is being said.

The base game is okay, You need so many mods to make it fun after 30 hours its ridiculous. They seem to have zero issues just riding off free workshop support and handing out garbage updates while they hype up this "Royal Court" DLC that is likely going to be a waste of content and break so many useful mods.

Paradox has lost me as a customer over this and i will not be recommending any content from them in the future.

I'd suggest waiting till the development cycle for this game is completed otherwise you'll be waiting a long time for any meaningful updates.


And for the attitude they have the game isn't that good Just saying.

Also, for those wondering what i said that got me banned?

"Wow, they changed the release date and didn't communicate it? What a bunch of A r s e holes"

@Sel und Irea, agree 100%, I loved CK2 (played mostly out of Steam, about 200 hours over several years) and honestly was expecting much more for CK3. Also love Stellaris (another 200 hours out of Steam) which was and is a Robust game, and EU3.
CK3 and Imperator are, in my opinion and at the moment, not in the quality standards of Paradox. again, its sad to say this company can give you much, but also disappoint you very much ...:brotherblood:

I agree, However i still intend to pump out hours just to try and take the highest playtime slot so this review goes to the highest on (Total Playtime) so they can't try and hide it. I won't be buying anything from them in the future until it actually releases and it's been properly covered.
Which is a shame considering how long i've been a customer of this company. They've just become too anti consumer as of late and everytime you say anything people defend them. The game (Crusader Kings 3) currently has too little content for them to be playing these games and the only reason it remains relevant is due to the amazing mod authors on the workshop. It's gotten to the point where only a select few mod authors remain while the others left for greener pastures (CK2) as it still has much more content to work with. And now? they're breaking the promises they made prior to release of Crusader Kings 3 in regards to CK2 content being added free of charge to the user.

very true, unfortunately. I agree with you and I am sad how's the game is performing so far. only hope it gets better, I'm not playing it until a new DLC (which I paid) is released.
