For the longest time, I've always thought that Diplomacy is dogwater. Got back into the game earlier today, was in a situation where I was far too weak to take land, had horrible income because vikings. I didn't want to fall back on hooks for money because I wanted to try new things. Than suddenly, Wessex just gifted me like 200 gold when my income at best (which it often wasn't) was like +1.4. It was the first time an AI ever gifted me Gold, so I was very confused. Later I rediscovered abusing the pope for money, although the whole experience hooked me right back into the game. Also saw a crab and got like 40 stress and died, I love CK3 sometimes.
how to turn your shitty castle into a metropolis -go to stewardship focus and get centralization. only that is necessary from the stewardship focus, but if you are poor take my domain -then go to the scholarship focus and that's where your character will stay for the rest of his life -get both whole of body and scholar with scholar being the priority -always educate your heirs in learning and make them diligent whenever possible -bureaucratic, industrious, agrarian culture. preferably make your culture small and concentrated in counties that are farmland or floodplains -Administrative court, level 7 grandeur -orthodox (the best) -Catholic, Ash'arism, or Muwalladism are also good -always take decision related to diligent trait, hold court always good events for development -be friends with your steward if possible -counties of your culture should always be your priority when developing -you will learn more while you play tall =tall enjoyer
philosopher culture is also a great cultural tradition for this playstyle (and the first one I usually establish in any of my cultures unless I play a martial barbarians campaign), because it makes the pensive childhood trait more common and it gives both the learning eduction traits and the scholar traits additional bonuses for development and innovation progress.
Learning is a strong part of why my current playthrough is my most OP one so far. If you have polygamy and have one spouse with 20+ learning, and you make them you primary spouse most of the time, you will get innovations so much more quickly. When you're at war, switch the primary spouse to one with strong Martial skill. Intrigue is still my favorite play style, but Learning is really under-rated. Thanks for the great vid! Cheers!!
I reached the high medieval cultural fascination 80 years before it was available just by having all learning character. Got 100 development on London at 1170.
@@SnapStrategy yep. Usually learning lifestyle but reach into stewardship early to get architect. After that just dump all profits back into land and by now I get 250 gold per month and I’m generous.

Really good editing on this one mate, it's got nice transitions, animated bits and overall flows really well. Keen to see more great content like this one!
Yeah I always and I do mean ALWAYS change my characters focus to learning after they hit the age over 40 or so, get the healing and science traits, helps to do some "selective breeding" and have that genius trait run in the family for the extra xp
I think best way is starting with stewardship and changing it to learning later (but i recommend taking monthly learning lifestyle + %10 on religon) with this order you will have more holding limit and health.
Also learning is so broken, that you legit can finish the two main perk tree and still have half your life to go to another tree after that, I usually start learning to get ahead because development and fascination are very important to get ahead of the curve. I always have 100% chance to gain progress and almost every encounter I have goes my favor because I’m so smart people are surprised, not to mention how easy is to manipulate people into doing what you want! Yea learning is very powerful
Surprisingly the fastest faith gain I felt I had without faith perks or skills was just being a female ruler in vidilist faith. You get piety per turn for being pregnant, it's also considered a virtue, so same faith opinion is higher, and then every kid you have is 2-300 piety
Holding 3 holy sites was a massive barrier for me. I couldn't manage it on my multiplayer games. Didn't help that I kept dying young. One of my characters died at 28 from hunting
This video is confusing me a little. It mentions an easy way to make money. The requirement of owning a holy site for the title creation is only mentioned in a side note. However I feel that this is essential and can be very difficult as there are only few holy sites that are normally not easy to get. Furthermore, spreading a faith seems to require huge skills in intrigue. So for me as a beginner this seems anything but easy to get. In the video you referred to, it took you 170 years to finally get a holy site and you had already conquered half of Europe and constantly struggled with warfare… and this as a pro. I wouldn‘t know how to start to also created a head of faith title etc
I ran into an issue with whole of body as my heir was so far descended they weren’t considered a “related child” so I couldn’t invite them to my court till they were an adult with mediocre traits. Suffering from success.
Why didn't you mention the cons? WTF. I had conquered almost all of England, and the majority of Ireland. I created my own religion like you suggested and then next thing I know is that I get a Holy War declared against me by the pope. 90,000 vs 39,000 troops. I'm still fighting it but it looks like it's over. I conquered all of the Papacy's holdings, but the war is still ongoing. I also tried converting back to Catholicism, but I couldn't because I was in a Holy War. Looks like it's over. To anyone reading this, be very careful about converting religion. To add some context, I remained Christian I just created a new Christian faith like this video suggested. Big mistake!
I would sacrifice my heirs for an updated guide on succession, specifically tips for handling confederate partition. I would also love tips on spreading your dynasty around.
I think Stewardship is the best, but when you're nicely built up with a good income, Diplomacy makes it SO much easier to manage your vassals and avoid civil wars.
Im playing on ps5 over 400 hours and just learned about communion but for some reason i havent gotten anything from anyone and no pop ups or decisions ive also converted half of europe and have 3 empire titles and am the head of faith so i don't know if its bugged or it isnt a thing on ps5 which sucks. Every time i take over as my heir it takes me years to get half of what i used to make monthly and going to war costs 50 plus gold a month. Idk what im doing wrong
Culture traditions seem to have the least bit of content on UA-cam so you could do like a tier list or you could just highlight some of the more OP/interesting or fun traditions in a video. Or how to make the best use of a tradition or hybrids
My main money earner seemed to be jailing people for adultery and then ransom. My kingdom seemed to be full of rich top shaggers who would be adulterous all the time. Starting as catholic king I didn’t have to mess about with any new religions even. Later on in the game , asking someone to convert, they say no, so jail and ransom them. There are also some artefacts that can boost vassal tax receipts.
Am i able to use perks of a lifestyle which i changed ? For example i have the abduct perk in intrigue and i change my focus to stewardship can i still kidnappe peoples
learning is way to op and its op to see other peoples traits other then yours all i do is find a genius and its easy win its too easy lol … the game needs more to do its way too easy
Learn on the Job is the one single perk I always go for at some point, no matter the character's education type

3- found faith
