Is Crusader Kings 3 Worth Playing in 2026? (Ep.82)

Jack and Adam dive into Crusader Kings 3 — where it stands six years after release, what the DLCs have added, and whether it's worth picking up if you've never played a Paradox game before. Adam comes in as a CK2 veteran with zero CK3 experience, which makes for a genuinely useful breakdown of what's changed, what's new, and what's coming. They cover the adventurer mode, the stress and traits system, the recent free update adding old age mechanics and a Kingdom Come Deliverance crossover, and the two upcoming DLCs that could change how the game is played entirely.
