If you're playing Crusader Kings and your mother is not your daughter, you're doing something wrong.

Zoroastrianism is known for incest in game but it’s more sympathetic in history when you consider their belief that their enemies were servants of ‘The Lie.’ It’s more interesting in those wars with the Greeks when you know their perspective.

For me, Aztecs wins the list as most barbaric not for the little differences you have listed but these things: Hemophiliac traits and bloodline Flower War CB

damn, i thought this is gonna be some half-assed explanation video because of how little view it got, but god damn it actually pretty damn good and props to you man... hopefully with time the algorithm god will grant you views. keep up the good work.

10:59 Man Imagine being a manager in that country

Technically Muslim women can inherit with enough tolerance technology and status of women laws, but it takes enough effort that only players would realistically ever do it, so I suppose that it wouldn’t help the Muslims’ scores much.

Would you make another one on the After the End mod? These kinds of videos are incredibly entertaining, great job my guy.

Fun fact Zikrisim is completely anachronistic as it arose in the 15th century, the only reason it is in CK2 is to import it in Europa universalis as its one of the better faiths in that game

"A list of religions from the most based to most cringe" here I fixed your title Spoiler: Aztec religion is the most based religion with 14.5 points and the jain religion is the most cringe with -3.6 points

I was brought here from your stunning work done on the in depth synopsis of the fall of Jerusalem story ark. Your content lives up to that work. Well done.

The Sunset Invasion is a meme in CK2 but not having it as a special game mode in EU4 is a missed opportunity

I don't see a reason why Meritocracy is a factor, but Eldership is not. In Meritocracy you can nominate your child (in a hereditiary succession), but with Eldership you can nominate anyone from your family and you have to get acceptance from the elders. Not a modern democracy, but still better, than Meritocracy.

I wonder why the fact you can declare a religious war against your neighbors wasn't talked about, only jains and taoists can't declare holy wars, would have thought that'd get the taoist some cred. That eastern religions are tolerant of each other(Not causing any religious rebels with culture being the big thing) not being talked about was strange too.

Very well done!Thanks for this video

I wonder, why they made it possible to go hunting for Jains in CK 3.

i disagree with the fact that you counted in having a singular religious head, but otherwise i mostly agree.

Many Islamic game mechanics were more Arab things. Many of those things are considered a sin. Just as insight cool video

I once had an aunt Asa in game set as benefactor in a crusade and has successfully got her a fief. Playing as her after transferring all my wealth and the ring (if you know, you already know what she is), I had her rush taking Arabia (with 25 martial, 72 personal combat and wealth that puts the Pope to shame), and "take care" of her son outside the dynasty. The problem is she's already 46 but by some "miracle", she had a son and needless to say, the dynasty continues. The Hag of Gotland is only one of the fun stories I get to produce out of my Gotland Republic run, and I had multiple runs 😉 Point being, the barbarism is truly not exclusive to the most savage religions

Awesome content :D

wow only 2k views, this one was really good

As someone who tries to practice Zoroastrianism in real life, I can say that it's a wholesome religion with values which I genuinely share. Good thoughts, good words and good deeds are just a way of life, God will hear your prayers if you're a genuinely good person. In ck2 howevet, it just allows me to start an incest party right away, but that's exactly what this game is made for.

were can you get this tier list maker

Great video, brother.

I know, not really a reason to start a dispute ... but I think that the additional taxation of non-Muslims when playing Muslim characters isn't really more barbaric ... actually, it's quite the opposite. Rather than outright demand conversion, you can keep your faith if you think it's worth the trouble. And as a ruler you get the extra funds and interested you need to defend minorities. Of course, this mixes real-life intentions with game mechanics but it's nonetheless interesting for an Muslim character to own some non-Muslim vassals.

nice analysis !

wouldn't having a religious head make you less barbaric?

Do one for CK3.

Your narration is simply amazing haha

well i'm going aztec next game i play in ck3 oh wait

*tips fedora* how do you do m'lady?

Underrated video

Lib right be like 0:36

Loved the monologue at the intro hahaha. So true

Could you make one for eu4?

Shouldnt iconclasism be a hair moee barbaric for vandalism?

Think you did the list the wrong way round

imma start the protestant revolution

How having concubines is barbarian but having consorts is civilized?

I have to say, I’m not an expert on religion or anything and have an overall negative opinion on all organized religions in general but from what I understand about the Aztecs… I mean holy shit. The Aztecs, like objectively - held and participated in some of the most horrific things in the name of their faith. It’s almost hard to believe that a society at that time could wholly commit and even revel in the horrible shit they did. I see Aztec beliefs to be objectively one of the most evil belief systems in human history. That, or perhaps some of the Punic cults that have been (accused) of things like burning infants alive in ovens as a child sacrifice. Although to be fair, we don’t really know if that was an actual practice or just rumors used to slander them.

Your analysis is pure soy

Wait why is a high priest barbaric? Isn't organisation the root of civilisation?

Definitely don’t agree with having a singular head as a bad thing at all, but when they have powers over countries and have the ability to call countries to war for any reason, Muslim or catholic or any religion with one, then I can agree lol

In kali puja not human sacrifice its a mahish(Bull)

Cathars, not even once. Also women clergy is not a good thing and goes against Peters succession

IMO if you were judging the Qarmatians based on real life events, probably you should take into account the Muslim events and theology behind it, particularly on Houri and Jannah... Its pretty barbaric from an outsider POV...

Meh...I just behead anyone who does not agree with my absolute monarchy. Which other game allows you to imprison children of your enemies and publicly execute them as a lesson to anyone who thinks about making a move against you? CK2 is awesome!

Ah, so no matter how much tolerance points I invested, I still can't directly grant my daughter a county, I have to change my religion to do that? Shame...

Lmao I don't understand why concubines is it negative thing?

Give tierlist

Don't the Jewish heresies and Judaism have the exact same features considering that they all lack features?

Atheist propaganda

Do you chose your religion in ck2

This video is so soy, it made me lactose intolerant.

Why are you using barbaric instead of fun to play as

Bro improve your writing skills. You said the word today 4 times in the first 20 seconds, and multiple times redundantly.

HEHE CHRISTIAN GO DEUS VULT! son...

The chad chatholics

As a swede i am proud of my country

Shouldnt incest be progressive?

Cringe

Not having female clerics is good actually.

“It is hard to see how a great man can be an atheist. Without the sustaining influence of faith in a divine power we could have little faith in ourselves. We need to feel that behind us is intelligence and love. Doubters do not achieve; skeptics do not contribute; cynics do not create. Faith is the great motive power, and no man realizes his full possibilities unless he has the deep conviction that life is eternally important, and that his work, well done, is a part of an unending plan.” - Calvin Coolidge Men whom believe in no God(s) or those who do not have any divine influence in their personal lives are more likely to selfishly act out in ways that regard their own personal prosperity, historically atheistic leaders who have been in power in recent decades have upended worldwide stability to breaking point and have spread atheistic ideologies that have killed more people through warfare in 20th century alone than the religious wars of the previous 19 put together. I guess we all have our biases and our own ways of looking at things..... I was interested in watching this vid until I heard that most unnecessary disclaimer at the intro.....
