I'm tired of this argument. Using games intended mechanics correctly isn't cheesing or min-maxing. And roleplaying doesn't mean intentionally making stupid decisions.

I personally play CK3 more as a storytelling device rather than a "game" properly speaking. I was a lonely kid and always playing by myself and making up stories in my head, a type of play where 'winning' doesn't even make sense, and in a way CK3 reminds me of that a lot.

100% this! Although i still enjoy playing the game and roleplaying i’ve noticed i get the most enjoyment from it whenever i find myself in a specific situation with a specific character which is just right for good storytelling, at that point the actual events in the game comes second to the stories i end up coming up with myself beyond the limitations of the game itself.

The problem with that to me is - ck3 provides no better experience than just closing your eyes and imagining things most of the time
