The Grandness of Paradox Grand Strategy titles is not a misnomer. Shame the grandeur tends to also come with a small helping of bugginess. Crusader Kings 1 is perhaps the poster child for that. The title was initially developed by an outside studio, with a similar style to Europa Universalis but in the Middle Ages with a focus on families instead of nation states. Unfortunately, the outside studio kind of screwed some things up. Even with all the fixes eventually given to the title, there are still random quirks that don't work like they should. Still the grandeur honestly makes up for many of the blemishes. It is a pleasure to lead a family of small time counts to the head of the known world. Unfortunately, once you know the mechanics, you really have to hold yourself in line to not use them all. It's extremely easy to min max your way to a thorougly boring second half of the game. Don
Crusader Kings in many ways is a biographer's wet dream. It has mechanics of Europa Universalis 2, the warfare, the economics, the diplomacy but unlike that grand strategy epic, this grand strategy epic portrays you not as some nameless entity ruling your nation through the ages but as the head of a noble medieval family, your faith not tied into the success of the nation you rule but the rulers themselves. You start the game by picking which family to control, you can start off as a great King yes but you can also choose to play as a powerful Duke or even an impoverished Count. You then set about forging alliances, mostly through marriage, produce offspring that can one day take over the mantle of leadership and assert your claim to various noble titles. As you grow in power and influence new challenges will arise. Conquer too quickly and others will see you as a warmonger, your vassal
The King of Sicily went heretical and rebelled against himself, the King of Sicily, which in turn caused a massive revolt across my kingdom. Was unable to put down said revolt and the King's Grandson went on to defeat his grandfather and claim the title King of Sicily for himself. I still have no idea how any of that was possible but I'm having too much fun to care.
Ah yes, the original incest simulator. “Wait, it's all incest?" "Always has been". I wrote a love letter to the pope. I murdered my own uncle for making fun of me at a feast. I slept with my sister. I then sat down to play some Crusader Kings, it's a pretty good game. CK1 was fantastic. It very effectively pulled me away from EU1/2/FTG, and far outshone Vic1/HoI1/2 for me. The character-based framing was just so much more immersive, even if the lack of AI challenge made it a map-painting simulator to some extent like every other Paradox game. It's a very old game though and it shows. By today’s standards... well there's a few things you can't do in 2 and 3 but can in CK1. It has its charm especially if you played it back in the days. But generally, the interface belongs to another age, and the gameplay feels closer to (old) Europa Universalis than to a dynastic simulation, and it'

I have played both Crusader Kings 2 and 3 and wanted to go back to the original to test it out. Since this is an older title, it is missing a lot of quality-of-life improvements that have come after the release of this game, and that makes it a lot harder to play. The menu is not intuitive, and a lot of the information is hidden from view. While I did like the art style and some of the systems, like how you can click the picture on your province and build buildings there, I would rather recommend getting Crusader Kings 2 or Crusader Kings 3 instead of this. Still if you really are interested in trying this out get it on sale. It goes on sale often enough that you don’t have to wait that long for it, and while I was not particularly bewitched by this game maybe you will.
