Fun Fact: Everyone calls Harald Hardrada "the last viking king" and stuff like that and people assume he was therefore a Pagan, but he was actually a Catholic and so were probably most of his fighters because Norway was very much christianized at that point.
@@jacobite2353 I never wrote something that would be in contradiction with that, there is a reason I wrote "people assume he was therefore a Pagan" and not just "He couldn't be a viking, because he was a Christian" Although the term viking itself wasn't that much used back then and the meaning changed over time and it's very messy over all. But yeah, it was originally just used for people who sailed with ships for trading, raiding, colonization or exploring and later it became more and more a synonym for "pirate". The use was also somehow contradictionary. Because some sources actually use it as an ethnic term, because the term viking is sometimes includes in lists of different ethnic groups. On other occasions it was used regardless of religion or ethnicity, especially later when it mostly meant "pirate". So they even called Israeli pirates in the mediterranian sea "vikings". With that more negative meaning occuring a lot of scandinavian nobles stopped to use the term for themselves while still saying stuff like "we go on viking" which still was quite neutral. So there was a big difference between "someone who goes on viking" and "someone who is a vikingr". First thing is cool, last one is an dishonourable pirate. I could write more, but let's just say, it's very complicated and not really that important, many people used the term probably in different meanings throughout time just as people today aren't always in agreement about modern terms.
This is what CK3 is all about: Creating your own story and narrative. Very well edited and narrated. It felt like one of my own saves. Absolutely loved it!
@@lordmilchreis1885 I'd like to think I'm practical rather! I also do my own thinking and form my own opinions instead of just accepting everything as the only truth without questioning just because that's what everyone else does. So if I'm dumb, it's not on purpose!
This dude absolutely needs more subscribers, I've only been subscribed for a couple weeks now but i watch all his videos. I had been looking for a CK3 youtuber for awhile and your channel is great for it.
The Viking invasion shall begin. The old gods are in favour of this one. I liked this style more than the other gameplay tbh. It's a bit like AlzaboHD. I'm gonna support this if you keep doing these
Thanks man! I just wanted to try something new on the channel, they take way longer to make obviously, but i do think the videos turn out better! which is whats important!
This documentary style is so much better, really makes it into an interesting story. Hope you keep this style for future videos! Maybe try other alternate history goals? While the AI couldn’t really handle your empire, it’s still amazing how you got this far with the odds not just stacked against you, but towering over you. Mad CK3 skills. Did your empire cause any major culture changes? Some new Viking hybrids?
Thanks blue! i think im going to keep this style with like you said, more historical sorta playthoughts, then keep the more meme style videos in the normal lets play style! and from what i remember there any hybrids:( but yeah was sad to see it fall apart so quick at the end lmao
@@SnapStrategy if you decide to continue playing this mod I highly recommend playing as the Latin empire or playing as the successor states of Byzantium after the 4th crusade
Recently discovered your channel, I really enjoy the content. I love the pacing of your videos and the way you describe what's happening with a little of humorous sarcasm mixed in. My kind of humor. Please keep making content, you're doing great and deserve more subs!
love this video! i mean this in the best possible way: your tone of voice while narrating the viking revival sounds like the 'day in the life of a brexit geezer' video
Good content as always my guy, have you thought about doing a playthrough where you start as the smallest faction and try to take over as much of the world as possible?
@@SnapStrategy There is a start between Afghanistan and Nepal (nowadays border) where you are almost guaranteed to lose the game instantly, if you don´t let your wife get cucked 24/7 because the dude is old af and dying.
Love the videos! Quick question: is ther any ck2 videos like this? I cant seem to do what I want and i have read all manuals on the game but still no cigar.
Ay yo really liked this one specially the way u told the story very nice :D But i have a question how were you able to start a game at this late age period?
@@SnapStrategy This is very sad to hear. Good work keeping the empire in one peice. Considering how quicky it fell apart there must have been a fair bit of instability. Cool to see the vikings do a bit of colonising brining the true chad faith to the missgueded people of the world.
The hungarian royal house of the time was tied to the royla house of Naples, and the King of Hungary controlled Naples for a brief period in real life as well.
Vikings : "we need to die in glorious combat in-order to reach Valhalla!" Catholics : "ya we just need to die to get to our heaven and aren't going to fight you." Vikings - *DEFEATED*
So im still new to the game but im just curious, how do you enter yor hall or whatever its called? i always see people doing this but idk how to get in there :(
No problem! In the more bookmarks + description it should have a compatibility patch for community flavor pack I think so make sure you get that if you use both the mods, And Thankyou I appreciate that man!
Could be pretty fun actually! nice idea, ive done it a few times in my own time, but could be a nice challenge to try it using a nice bookmark mod and some other fitting mods!
But have you made an historically authentic, totally immersive, titanium man mode as a Cthulhu worshipping, vampire, warlock, norse lord? Also seeing a vid drop from you today was "fantastic" (i can't do the accent properly) AND about a norse lord. I'd missed you man.
Dead game. Paradox is TOXIC to feedback, years of feedback, about heirs wandering off. Build a dynasty to last for hundreds of years, oh wait my sons wife and children just went wandering off. Cant get them back, game over.
Completely forgot to mention in the video! but a big thankyou to Dagda for the video idea! ❤️

Nice to see that a streamer also rushes towards losses and I'm not alone wasting troops

Normandy landings, 1523 16:35
2:23 Was a violation lol
I've been to the village that Harold Hardrada's final battle took place. Their pub sign is a viking with a horned helmet
Bo reminds me of my brother. He would done well being born a few hundred years earlier.
Glad you’re back!
Thankyou man! Got a bit delayed this week! But getting back into it now!
Love the videos!
Quick question: is ther any ck2 videos like this? I cant seem to do what I want and i have read all manuals on the game but still no cigar.
Ay yo really liked this one specially the way u told the story very nice :D But i have a question how were you able to start a game at this late age period?
Great video, sad to see the empire go. Parhaps Ireland can keep the legacy going if they kept the faith.
Thankyou! Forgot to mention in the video, I left it run about 3 hours and the faith was completely gone lol
@@SnapStrategy This is very sad to hear. Good work keeping the empire in one peice. Considering how quicky it fell apart there must have been a fair bit of instability. Cool to see the vikings do a bit of colonising brining the true chad faith to the missgueded people of the world.
@@Phoenix-ue5ls i was really hoping they would atleast keep Scandinavia but most people just converting back to catholic which was a shame!
Damn i love viking challanges
Always my favourite!
Some dubious choices for some wars but whatever, fun vid ^^
Can’t disagree with that haha, but Thankyou!
You are a madman for playing on 5x speed
what mods did you use to make world so balanced
Love the new style of video.
Good to hear that! thanks!
How did you fast forward the game so fast at the end? :D or did you just speed the video up?
Wow 12:08 Hungary conquered almost all of Italy...Wondering how that happened :'D
No idea! Was a nice surprise though haha
The hungarian royal house of the time was tied to the royla house of Naples, and the King of Hungary controlled Naples for a brief period in real life as well.
Oh well there we are then makes sense! Thankyou for letting me know!

What a grand tragedy!

Hahah you took the shitty part of Denmark😂😂
(I live in Aalborg, Denmark)
Harald Hardrada, if I say the most badass viking king and the last of them was a Catholic, he was a Mercenary, Crusader, Viking and a King.
Not sure this would be that easy on 1.7, AI ramp up far more than before then. ^^
nice video
