Okey so I need you, the community to discuss an issue with CK3 that makes me lose interest in the game unfortunately.
To me CK3 is very entertaining in many regards but I lose interest as I never encounter challanges from other realms.
So, I have narrowed it down to a question about levies and AI armies, regarding levies and men at arms.
If I play Norway, Portugal or Byzantine I sooner rather than later have a steady levy size that the AI cant compete with, so an AI realm must be much bigger or have plenty of allies to match me or outsize me. I am thinking this is something many are experiencing since I dont regard myself as very skilled in the game, just a veteran.
Now, I downloaded several mods and tweaked myself and the AI got som hefty boosts to economy, aggression, levy size boost etc etc.. all to make the AI artificially superior. It worked a little longer but at some point I (Playing Byz but intentionally lost Anatolia to weaken myself and start restoration immersion) still outmatched the Seljuk Empire which had Anatolia and strecthed to the Indus river.
How can modern day Greece, Bulgaria, Albania, Constantinople + West coast of Turkey outnumber vast empires such as the Seljuk as I mentioned, or be even double the size of AI HRE which is half of Italy, large chunks of central Europe.
Also, I know the population density has changed through the ages etc but I find this problem everywhere(playing as Norway for example, Sweden, Scotland, Denmark cant compete at all).
Please discuss and also, do anyone have good solution until Paradox makes changes themselves?
Like tweaks I can do etc?
I havent been able to remove levies successfully because vassals themselves provide enough for steamrolling.
I want to get attacked and I want to plan carefully for war.. not know I am winning the game by 1066.
(Internal strife and struggle is a different discussion, though I find vanilla internal politics and intrigue a little easy)
