So right now you cant play the pop without mods or cheating, and when you do it's absolutely busted...
But imagine if they reworked it to actually have balancing systems! Like requiring playing a pious character, gaining favor of all the cardinals to support your chosen successor or lose the game, appointing new papal laws that affect all christian/orthodox rulers, and a fervor mechanic that works sort of like Decandance that if drops too low triggers an early protestant revolution (like Hussites)- and an alternative route where you can secretly go evil and worship satan while ruining the papacy, and upon taking over the satanist cult and succeeding at something like a warrior lodge's legend opening adopting satanism and spawning it as a real religion that has a unique CB against everyone and everything and a massive -opinion modifier with anyone who isnt pagan.
with stuff like immortality being rewarded for succeeding and of course the already OP satanism cult mechanics.
Further ideas and recommendations welcome!
