Please watch the pricing with the DLC.. the upcoming chapter costs as much as the base game and there is nowhere near that amount of new content. I will not be purchasing it until it is least 50% off.. no matter how good the reviews are. There are other games to play. Stop being greedy at the expense of your fans.

This is the best video game I've ever played. Gamers who love medieval history and storytelling - this is it. I've played countless games over years and I remember every single one vividly. Perfect blend of character-driven roleplaying and grand strategy. THE game.

Game's great. You play not as the country, but as the ruler of the country's family. No other game does it as well, not even close. Ignore the haters. the game rocks.
