What do, lads? Playing Princely States turned Indian Empire. Just finished uniting all of the former Raj, and now at a crossroads. Socialism has failed basically everywhere and the International is no longer much of a contender anywhere on the planet. The Entente also appear to be largely toothless with an America ruled by McArthur still isolationist.

What should I do now? The only two real powers in the world are the German bloc and the Japanese bloc, who own most of Asia. The problem is, they aren't fighting each other and are a world away from one another. Where can I find some fun left in this game?

I'm pretty sure it was the national admin efficiency, at least according to the tooltips.

Promotion speed is based on regional admin efficiency, national efficiency is only used for crime buildings, cost of military units, factories, and infrastructure, and I want to say one other thing but I can't remember what it is.

You should start promoting bureaucrats in whatever regions (states) have the most primary/accepted pops. If your largest region is 100k pops and only 25% are primary/accepted, you'd be better off promoting in a region with 50k that is 90% primary/accepted.

I really hate CK2, not for what it is but for what it is not, or rather what it could've been.

When I start it up, I expect a cool medieval game that combines grand strategy with dynasty management. What I get is a steaming pile of fucking nothing.

Seriously, in most of my games fucking nothing happens. The Holy Roman Empire takes Flanders, and then France and the HRE sit there doing fucking nothing. Byzantium never falls, the Seljuks blob all over the fucking place, very little actually changes. Very little actually happens. Even if I'm a great ruler like the king of France, I spend most of the game doing fucking nothing other than plotting marriages.

The alliance system is fucking retarded too.
>Can't ally people outside of you religion
>Can't ally without marriage
Fucking shit, what's so hard about "we both hate the Germans, why don't we work together?". Why do I need to let the king of Poland fuck my daughter before he considers joining me against his fucking greatest threat? Why can't I ally Muslim rulers, just like Muslim rulers allied the fucking crusader states?

And then there's the retarded Islamic blobs? Wasn't the idea that Islamic empires would be prone to succesion crises and fracturing, like in fucking real life? Why do the Seljuks always blob? Oh, I remember! Because Johan said that Islam was so broken he wouldn't even bother fixing it.

And then there's the retarded non-merchant Republics (seriously? Merchant Republics are playable but non-Merchant Republics aren't? And you can't even be bothered to think up theocracy mechanics?)

This isn't like getting a steaming pile of shit. This is like a waiter in a 3 star restaurant delivering you a fine plate, lifting the cloche and revealing a plate of delicious pommes duchesse with a fresh salad and a juicy, fragrant steak... except someone took a fat shit on top of it. You can see the brilliance underneath it and you are left unsatisfied, wondering about what could have been.

>you can if you make friends :3
That's still really silly. I understand that friendship and marriage can lead to an alliance, but those shouldn't be the only circumstances. Common interests or a shared enemy count for something, you know. If you're the Kingdom of Jerusalem fighting the Fatimids, what reason would the Libyans have for not allying you? Of course religious differences should give a penalty, but they shouldn't make alliances impossible.

However, the pop promotion cap to slavery nations is fucking me up a lot, the region in pic related has loads of accepted pops but only grew about 10% adm efficiency over the last 4 years encouraging bureaucrats, and it was quite hard to get intellectuals in the only 2 regions I have 100% adm efficiency in - around 12 years to grow them from 1.2% and 2.1% to 2.6% for both of them.

The Renaissance was the Italian period of Europe. After that we had the Siglio d'Oro, the Spanish period of Europe. After that the Grande Siècle and Napoléon, the French period of Europe. Then came the German period and, of course, everything went to fucking shit. Because two millennia have passed and nothing has changed: the Germanics are still barbarians with little talent for anything but destruction.

Your official languages are German, French and Italian. Your goal should be to conquer the entire French, German and Italian sprächraum and make them all accepted cultures. Essentially, you want to redo Charlemagne. Maybe Iberia too for the sake of pretty borders.

Also, stay a Republic. You can go full HRE if you want, as long as you switch back to a Republic one way or another. Swiss freedom shall not perish in a world filled with monarchs.
