I had over 50% contribution and got the king title and 2 worst duchies. HRE was excommunicated and sat the crusade out. I basically won this by myself but random other characters got the bulk of the rewards. Who are these people? The beneficiaries of 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th and 8th contributors? One of them got 2 duchies. What a waste. One guy holding 2 duchies = slower tech progression.
I don't even get an opinion bonus from the newly placed dukes?
It seems the devs have made a lot of changes. Before, crusades were great for fortifying my weaker king vassals. I could split up the rewards among them and give the most to the ones that needed it most. I could keep a few counties in my own demense to spread tech with. I could also boost the opinon of my vassals.
How does this make the game better?
