Thank you so much for 100K! You all made my dream come true 😭 Also how many times can you say exploit in one video? Thank you to the good Doctor @sandwich8622!
I think I may have found four Cultural Traditions that could allow you to complete this in a Year. If you make a Divergent Culture that has: Mystical Ancestors, Malleable Subjects, Legalistic, and Xenophilic, I believe the static +40 different culture opinion should carry you threw. You will need to unlock the Renown Legends Trait to enact Mystical Ancestors, but once you do, you can earn even more Renown even faster doing your exploit. You get a Static +250 Renown for granting a family member an Empire Title if y'all have the Mystical Ancestors Cultural Tradition. You can see how this can be utterly exploited to unlock all Renown Perks lol 🤙🏿🍻
Man can you imagine being under the schizophrenic Girlboss Empress One Eyed Wendy and in the first 24 hours she starts shuffling holy books like a deck of cards?
"Gentlemen, loyal knights and men-at-arms, i must thank you yet again for your unwavering devotion. We stand together against the tyranny of the one-eyed queen, who would arrest and imprison all who disobey her, and though our lives may end in this campai-" "Sire! News from the capital, she surrendered and abdicated again. Long live the king!" "Damn it, this is the fifth time this week!"
He's using exploits. Like opening a window 500 times instead of just once. Developer assumes you'd click on the button once, forgot to code it to check to see if another window is already open. Easy patch, if they ever saw this video. His ways is a long round ways of doing things. I just find where my values are stored, like gold, prestige, piety, & just instant change it to any amount.
You’ve single-handedly fueled my paradox game addiction. Glad to have you back, this was quite the feat. I’ll be rewatching it while I focus on repeatedly raiding the pope.
In a single day, all of the Imperial scribes get crippling carpel tunnel syndrome, all of the messengers get bad backs, and all of the aristocracy's mailboxes explode due to all of the royal decrees and informing of marriages, name changes, state religion changes, etc., etc.
Prospective Court Chaplain to Current Court Chaplain, "Would you say working for Empress Wendy provides stable employment?" Current Court Chaplain to prospective Court Chaplain, "No, I would not."
Imagine being a ruler during this. An empire that changes by the hour and day. Yet you’re not even able to do anything about it so you join the empire only for a chance to be tricked out of your land.
dayum what a video,in the beginning i was like that looks fun, in the end it looked like a gigantious amount of effort holy crap hats of to you i dont think i even want to do that if it was just straining to watch you do so many steps, well played ottowa, never expected a forshadowing at the end, 11/10 well done
I resent the statement that none of us have been using the bisexual matriarchy exploit, as I use it for nearly all of my achievement runs (except Mother of Us All, because I felt like that one deserves to be done the intended way - though I did leave everyone bisexual.) The matriarchy exploit used to be even more chaotic, as it previously left male rulers in charge instead of giving it to a female relative or leige like it dies now, and instead there were just cobstant peasent revolts because the sexist commoners woukd not stand for a male ruler, so everywhere you looked there were peasant uprisings and fracturing realms. Now it's a bit more orderly, but still a great exploit that I highly recommend!
When doing your double depose trick, could you not wrongfully imprison, like, 16 people at once, queueing up 8 double deposes at the same time, and thus massively improving the amount of scheme expediting you can do?
I kind of feel like being deposed should put you on house arrest and in a regency. The way it is now you can just ignore succession completely and immediately play as your heir. Sure primary heir may be your presumptive regent but your heir becoming a ruler as an AI is usually a fate worse then game over. If nothing else someone who is deposed should be unable to inherit titles, they could add a deposed trait or a "recently deposed" modifier for 5 or 10 years.
I mean, I think that you should be able to regain it. But the people who disposed you should gain a casus belli or massive opinion malus. Maybe you can gain some tyranny if you regain it & then refuse some kind of demand for say higher council power or them demanding some kind of co-ruler? Aka, your allowed back, but you're on a thin edge & only allowed to rule because of rightful succession.
@@AbstractTraitorHero sure, but my main concern is with the fact that as a game mechanic this is almost purely beneficial to the player because once you are playing as your heir who gets installed in your place the consequences for your previous character don't matter. The fact that there aren't any just adds insult to injury but for your new character they inherit everything regardless of partition and they inherit it early, and you can use your still living parent as a powerful vassal and very excellent councilor because you have personally picked their lifestyle perks and apparently everyone just forgives them the moment they abdicate. You have +50 opinion with them because you are parent and child and unless they are sadistic it is literally impossible for them to do hostile schemes against you because you are their child. You will also continue being their primary heir so any delegated power will be returned to you again along with whatever gold they didn't give you from their feudal contract tax obligations. Your own parent is literally the most overpowered vassal and on top of that you get to play as your primary heir early while they are still young and full of potential and before the AI has decided to turn them into a gluttonous incestuous serial killer. The younger you start playing as your primary heir the better off they are in the long run typically.
@@TheMagnanimousTyrant I generally as a rule care the most about being able to simulate plausible or historically accurate things. I can see a lot of problems with things and def understand your perspective. I am pretty against the idea of balance, beyond as a tool to enforce historicity or realism. Even if it would make the game unfun I support it, as I don't believe games are solely to have fun either.
@@AbstractTraitorHero If they wanted to solve it in a realistic way then they could just force a succession following whatever the succession law is even if it splits the realm and give a opinion malus with the deposed ruler. Personally though I think a even realistic choice would be that if you lose a tyranny war then the winners are granted independence and get an opinion malus and there is no succession. I'm a little confused as to why your heir taking over is the ultimatum for a tyranny war to begin with since it is a conflict between the liege and their vassals I don't know why it satisfies or benefits the vassals to submit to the next in line when you just beat your own liege militarily, which betrays the entire point of the feudal contract to begin with.
The last try of pronunciation of Khyrgys was absolutely correct, well done. And I'm so proud that Kiev and Novgorod still stay almost to the end. Lovely stuff
Imagine how terrifying it would be in real life if there was a kingdom that everytime it declared war on another nation that its ruler was immediately kidnapped and forced to give up their rule.
going from random count to emperor in a lifetime is basically ck3 summed up and it couldn’t be more unrealistic. This is just absurd. Glad about road to power bc maybe that’ll help fix how easy it is to climb socially.
I agree the fact this is even possible is absurd but keep in mind that a big part of this playthrough was only possible because he literally edited the games files. (The Dull thing) Another thing I should point out is that he didn’t start out as a count, he started as an empire and if I remember right he never went below the title of king.

Also, if you select one of the capstone traits in the character creator, you also get all the preceding lifestyle perks, so you could skip the educations
I have close t0 1,000 hours in this game, watched hundreds of YT videos (Including all of yours) (Shoutout to my fellow Canadian) and that is still the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard in this game...I LOVE IT!!!!
