      Please,, play as a vassal of the arberian culture as a of Byzantium empire. And thanks to this wife, he believes in Islam (Maturidi). And become the first Muslim vassal of Byzantium. And let him spread the Islamic civilization from the lands of Albania to the world. Let him make Byzantium the Islamic empire. and change his name to an Islamic name after becoming a Muslim. It would be a very epic story and episodes could be shot. Please man please

      I feel like this game really needed a more interesting location or topic. Actually they need to do what they did to Spain to the holy land or Italy. Feel like they promised more when the game released and haven’t gotten enough of ck 2 aspects

    That's insane that you can do THAT much expanding in one single life span. I always love reviving Zoroastrianism, it's so fun lol. But, I usually do my own Seljuk-inspired run with that, and start up in Oghuz-Il, and expand all the way down to the entirety of Persia.

    This DLC needs a rework already,
    I've already noticed that vassals can too easily claim your throne (and as a result become your rival). By the time your in your 20th year of the game, most if not all of your vassals could have a claim and launch constant wars against you.

    This is a beautiful story you made, Mr. AlzaboHD. Only revving the Sassanid Empire with a one-lifetime protagonist is an excellent way of creating a saga for the Adventurous journey. I would love to see a sequel to it and have Persia conquer the Byzantine Empire and have the Shah make Constantinople his new capital; what would you think about the Sassanids conquering the Holy Roman Empire and having a relative become the Shah of the Germans and Italians. What do you think of that idea? Mr. AlzaboHD? Any thoughts, comments, and opinions about this idea? Fantastic video, my friend. Keep up the great work, and never give up!

    Access to Invasion Cassus Belli relitavely easily but with a downside is really nice, having the possibility for insane expansion likely followed by an extended period of vunerability and civil war when you inevitably die. Quite nice, would be interested to see how bad the internal conflict is following a one lifetime conquest of the middle east.

    The Sassanids actually followed Zurvanism, deviated from the orthodox Mazdayasna and for that they were also criticized by many Mazdayans, it’d be great if CK3 adds Zurvanism alongside Mazdayasna.

    You’re shy of 10k likes but I’d love it if you made a sequel anyhow. One focussed almost entirely on realm stability and inquisition-type behavior. My favorite CK experiences so far have been wrestling with internal conflicts. Maybe it’s just because I’m bad at the game and you can navigate these problems with ease, making for a boring video. Just my two cents. Have a great day mate!
