i would say my mod is harder than vanilla options , maybe slightly more unstable too

Thank goodness I have been advocating for it, and your mod's implementation since I know it's similar to an older one, since forever!

Great news the game will have official difficulty options very soon

just for future references, this mod should work with new game updates , just ignore the mod is outdated message

Gold.

Updated the mod, again if you hve issues with my mod not updating resub to it will fix it

Could work

will this work for agot,lotr and elder kings 2?

A big thanks to all the new subscribers , ive noticed a big spike recently. It is nice that there still seems to be a need for this mod to exist. It also gives me the incentive to keep updating the mod for future updates.

another update to fix the intrigue stuff, nowit works! added disease resistance for counties, small buff for ai spouse opinion

Yes i put out an update, if it doesnt auto load, unsubscribe and subscribe again, that will fix it!

Is the mod update available yet?

i will give the ai more influence in admin realms, tho not a multiplier. Still should help. I will also make the ai more bold and energetic again, as it think noone that wants to play with a difficulty mod wants passive ai.

The main thing is to increase the influence multiplier of the AI, otherwise it can do nothing at all in Byzantium. It does not fight for the post of governor (themes are empty, there are no candidates)

i already made a list on things i probably have to adjust in my ck 3 mod: Extreme Difficulty Mod on steam

new sheme modifieres
new lifestyle traits
admin realm stuff for ai
landless play balance for ai

i think thats about it for now , i will update my mod as fast as possible as always, enjoy and have a great time!

@Philemon
Thank you for your reply.
I can already use this mod normally. Your work is very useful to me，have a nice day!
謝謝你的回復。
我已經可以正常使用該模組。你的工作對我非常有用，祝你生活愉快！

Hey @gonxibx, when you open up the game rules menue and switch the difficulty settings it should say hard, very hard and extremely hard. those are the new added ones from my mod.

I have a stupid question : how do I use it ?
I cannot find the mod's settings in the game rules,so I cannot confirm if this mod is working,looking forward to your reply.
我有一個看起來愚蠢的問題：我要如何使用它？
我在游戲規則裏找不到該模組的設置選項，所以我不能確認它是否能發揮作用，期待您的回復。

reduced build cost and speed to 5/10/15%
reduced lifestyle trait xp gain bonus to 40/60/80%
reduced accolade glory gain to 40/60/80%

added legitimacy gain bonus 40/60/80%
added court grandeur baseline 5/10/15
added scheme secrecy 5/10/15
added county opinion bonus of 5/10/20
added monthly county control growth 0.4/0.6/0.8

normal gives the player penalties aswell, while ai only doesnt debuff the player :)

sorry me stupid dont understand what difference between "normal" and" "AI only"???? they both buff AI?? not???

Hey, thank you for you feedback @Hustler One. Prestiege is highly inflated int his mod, i get that. The idea that you have to play as a vassal and play a diplomatic game is by design. That was one of the aspects of the game i always felt were mostly role play or extremely niche cases.

This mod was pretty great. I did a world conquest playthrough with it and found that troop movements actually mattered. You can't just siege enemy holdings- you need to watch where their armies move and decide in real time whether to press your siege or pull back to fight off the enemy armies. I used "Very Hard" on a 100 martial 100 prowess character and had a lot of epic battles. There are only two caveats:

* If you are playing a broken character like I did, there are bigger armies so you will get way too much prestige just by fighting.

* If you are playing a normal character, weak starts are impossible. You'd better be a vassal to a big boy and play your cards carefully.

Hopefully the last update for now X)
-AI war cooldown reduced by %25/50/75 yet again. This does not mean the ai will declare wars. Just opens the possibility for it.

- AI war chance increased by % 5/10/10

- Vassal Opinion changed to Direct Vassals Opinion, Value Changed to 15/20/25 from 10/15/25
- removed not working winter supply modifier
- reintroduced Vassal Levy contribution % 10/10/15

Major Update with tons of changes, read the changelog for information on all the changes!

If you can find a way to change the difficulty mid game it might work

can this be added mid game or will it only take effect at game creation?
current game difficulty is at v.hard, so hoping itll atleast give them the v.hard bonuses

Updated the Version Number to 1.10,* so you dont have to endure the not updated notifier <3

I love it <3 If there would be just option in rules setting beside difficulty, to force primogeniture succession law for AI rulers to make them even more harder and stable realms for ai lords on sucession instead of shattering.<3

Quick update: Version bump to 1.9 and you can now earn achievements while using the higher difficulty settings! Enjoy :)

Hey there! I hope you are all having a great time playing this mod. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to tell me! Destiny

Update: Adjusted very hard and extremely hard difficulties to be slightly less rediculous
- reduced ai vassal contribution for taxes and levies on extremely hard to very hard level
- reduces tax income bonus on extremely hard to very hard level
- reduced most bonuses on very hard and extremely hard slightly
- vassal opinion and realm priest opinion reduced

New HIGHLY recommended Mod: Unofficial fixes
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2871648329

small update:

Added icon to show 'not achievement compatible' when setting game rules

You are welcome @Werewolf

Thx!

- removed the plot armor changes to be more compatible with further base game updates.

The mod should work with future updates even if it says it is outdated !

@DestinyCallsYou
Thank you!

Mod updated for 1.6 Iberia update

I made some major changes again to try and bring the game to life, i got rid of the ai personality changes, made top lieges have more taxes and levies and adjusted alot of modifiers. Embarkment cost for ai has been reduced. There is less money overall but more for top lieges now. Same for levies.

Thanks for keeping this updated! Will definitely test it with a new game!

mod should still work perfectly fine with the new patch

so how do you guys like this mod ? is it making your game more interesting?

@天胡 that is hard to say truth be told. That mod seems massive. Id say load my mod first and that mod after this one is worth a try but i cant guarantee there not beeing conflicts.

is this mod compatible with more interactive vassals？
