So after playing a few starts, and trying to get a good randomized set of stats on a lesser-known ruler, I decided to make this thread about the things I want to see in the new Ruler Designer.
Good, Young Characters: The way the designer worked in CK2... was not fun. In order to get a ruler with good traits, you had to essentially max out on health statuses and choose the same easily-removed drawbacks. It made the system more of a chore than something fun when you wanted to make a good but young ruler. Meanwhile, you have teenage geniuses running around with event troops in the 867 start, and you're hard-pressed to find a negative trait about them, but if you go to make a character half as good as that one, you're pushing 100 years old and can't really play.
Achievements: There needs to be a set of restrictions that'll allow for achievements to be earned with certain Ironman characters. I know the concern in CK2 was for some of the religion/culture ones, just generating a ruler and getting those easily. I think that if there was a limitation, like "editing a ruler but retaining the starting culture and religion" that it should allow for achievements.
Coat of Arms options: Please, please, please let us tap into all the possible coat of arms. It was so aggravating being stuck with the same dozen or so options for CK2 that it really made it kind of bland to be your own dynasty. If this is a game about dynasties, we should be able to have coats of arms that rival some of the great historic dynasties.
