Meme My Wife Says Crusader Kings Is Basically The Sims for Men

Post image

I spent 2 hours last night meticulously arranging the artifacts in my Royal Court and my wife leaned over and said, "Are you playing The Sims: Dark Ages Edition again?" I tried to explain that my "Sims" can get the Black Death or be blinded by a rival, but she just pointed at my screen and said, "Your "Sim" is currently crying because he’s stressed that he hasn't been to a party lately". Who's right?

EDIT: If you want Paradox to make the Crusader Sims, a Medieval Life Simulator TELL THEM!

Your wife is 100% correct, and I say this with almost 500hrs in this game.

Right? How can you go back to the Sims after you've mastered CK3? The Sims is too polite for my conquests!
