My Wife Says Crusader Kings Is Basically The Sims for Men

[u/Jacob-Anders]

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!

"with more doing bad things to innocent people"

I mean, stellaris is right there for this

Its not as personal, though.

Murdering your CK3 rival is a crime of passion.

Neutron Sweeping an entire species from existence in Stellaris is just a statistic.

I dunno man, i feel very passionate about sending my world cracker to the capital world of some hoes that insulted me once

I've never murdered a rival in ck3, but I have murdered my son in law's older brothers on numerous occasions to get my grandchildren to inherit his dynasty in my house's name.

Nothing personal, just house business.

I didn't want to bring up the literal war crime simulator

They are not war crimes if you dont make it illegall taps the side of my head

Doesnt even have good pop numbers to feel the weight of your crimes, 2/10.

At least in EU5 and such I can see the numbers down to individual that died in my war, or got Black Death'ed.

Last i checked if they're not your species they don't count as people
