Apologies if this is against board rules but I didn't see any rules in the sticky.
Any games surrounding war in the past? For example, the crusades or playing as any country of my choosing during the Atlantic conquests?
I want a game that's strategic and very immersive, as accurate as possible.
Could you help me out?

I take you're familiar with grand strategy games?
>>321617331
Assassin's creed 1 is set during the crusades and it's worth playing
Try Paradox Grand Strategy games, like Europa Universalis 3 and 4, and Crusader Kings 2. They are very complex though.

Assassin's Creed is neither strategic, nor immersive or historically accurate. It's a mediocre action game with some light stealth elements.
There's that History Channel game "Great Battles Medieval"

Crusader Kings 2 for medieval/crusades, Europa Universalis 4 for age of exploration

Strategy games are not immersive at all. His suggestion is probably the most immersive so far, OP will just have to decide what's more important.

Speak for yourself. Strategy games can be very immersive.
They're most certainly a lot more immersive than the piece of shit that was Assassin's Creed, which wasn't historically accurate in the slightest.

Mount and blade with a mod for that cursade feeling, 1234 i think

Holy fuck you double nigger. We get it. You don't think it's immersive. Did Altair shit on your 5th grade history book?

My history teacher had us play assassins creed in 7th grade, he brought a PlayStation 3 in. Some kid killed somebody and the principle flipped shit.
He wanted to show us how "historical events can be explained through vidyas"
He's now the vice principal at that same school.

You can still be immersed in a world. Much more so than in Assassin's Creed in any case where the whole world reminds you that you're playing something fully fictional all the time due to the anachronistic costumes, arms and armour.

American education, baby
I dropped out of highschool too :^)

Mount and Blade is nice, if a bit dated. If you want the bigger picture, try games from Paradox (from the relevant time period).
