Crusader Kings II

[Monk]

First AoR dev diary has dropped. It's a summary of things included in the dlc and the things in the 1.07 patch.

Answers to my prayers. The in-realm factional system is replacing plotting on a wide-scale, regardless of where your character calls its home. This opens up a heck of a lot of possibilities for much more dynamic and intriguing plot based gameplay, more logical support for rebellious vassals against a liege and modding. Can't wait.

Oh, and we're taking another tack with the DLC this around - if you don't own the DLC, the AI won't be using the new mechanics or events either. Also, from now on in multiplayer mode, the host will control which DLCs are active.

An incredibly good change that allows the community to be flexible in what DLC they buy without being locked out from playing with their friends. It looks like most of the great stuff is going to be in the content patch for free anyway.
