I Sometime wanna go back to CK3 just to check If i Can get a fun save going But then i see posts like This with these issues still ongoing 6 months later… iFor me the worst feature of ck2, which has been dragged across to CK3 was vassals, who constantly want to revolt for no reason whatsoever - or at least with the slimmest of grievances/pretences.
It's actually been made worse in ck3, now that they are on a timer once they reach a certain threshold that severely limits the ways in which you can respond.
In my current campaign, my emperor is in his 29th year of rule, but the second my armies suffered just a tiny bit of attrition in a desert battle, all of a sudden a hostile faction pops up containing just 3 out of 17 vassal kingdoms inside my empire but with an army to rival my own (but ignoring my allies like the byzantine empire) and with all the participants having a +50 to +90 opinion of me, yet not leaving the faction.
One of them is literally a blind, profligate drunk who I have cause to arrest, but only a 3% chance of success against.
And aside from him one is my nephew and is apparently temperate and compassionate, while the other is calm and forgiving and both of them are in the middle of fighting defensive wars, while plotting their revolt.
While there are obviously countless situations in the game where you would expect a revolt to occur or at least be more probable, I find that the thresholds for factions to start forming are far too low and you end up with situations where a bunch of supposedly content lords often holding titles that you gave them and with no real problems in life decide to risk everything they have just for the hell of it.
I'd much prefer campaigns where the main threat was external enemies, rather than constantly having to put down minor factions filled with vassals who don't particularly dislike me and who don't even make use of the court system to voice their grievances in advance, before deciding to plot a suicidal attack that for some reason nobody in game considers to be treasonous while they are in the phase of openly rallying support for their uprising, but without having the numbers to act.
Feels really gamey and immersion breaking and can ruin campaigns you've sunk several hours into if it happens to trigger at the wrong time and in sufficient numbers e.g. in the middle of a crusade or major war when your troops are already rallied and possibly low on supplies/suffering attrition or losses from battles.
