Who wants to live forever?

[Knotz]

Poll for fun.

I'm looking forward to it and I'm hoping the event chain has some milestones to it, like no one should think it's too weird if you're 87 but if you're pushing 217 I'd like to think the Church would have a few things to say. Though not necessarily negative. Probably negative but it'd be cool if they could not hate us if we had no sins and a bunch of virtues. And who wants a special sect of immortal hunters? ~raises hand~

 

[Rascar Capac]

Depends. If I have to bathe in the blood of virgins for it (regularly), sure. But if it's just eternal youth, that's gonna get boring fast.

I believe there's special rules against polls without asking permission on this forum?
(though I never really understood why tbh. Admins, if you remove, a link to explanation would be welcome)

This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.

Huh, really? I've never managed to find the rules on this forum. And I've actually looked.

I have serious doubts the event chain will make characters immortal. More likely it will be just something to keep us entertained and give us a trait or two in exchange for gold.

I thought so too at first but no, it's actual immortality.

 

[Dragatus]

Seriously? Can you give me the source of that information?

Dancing mania is in

They can be killed but will not die naturally of age.

Nope.

Click on the little arrow next to the : and you'll be able to see the post he was responding to.

I feel compelled to add you can switch this off by disabling fantasy events.

I will most certainly try to get this on a Zoroastrian character. The Saoshyant as immortal God Emperor of Persia with his daughter concubines, who over time will be daughters of the daughters of the daughters and so on. But still with the same father. And of course the immortal emperor having his own holy order of immortals.
Maybe even hope for a Zoroastrian Satan Spawn who becomes immortal.

This is going to get sick.

It all depends how often the event fires, how hard it is to complete the event chain and what type of game I'm playing. I mean it might be as rare as glitter hoof. Now if that fires you can do crazy wonderful things, but I haven't seen many people asking for it to be removed or complaining about it at all.

I'm gonna start a le Fay dynasty in Wales for my immortal.

I'm also gonna shamelessly stack the deck in my favor by checking which traits make it more likely to fire and picking/raising my kids to have those.

Yup. I think I'll do my first Zoro game because of that event And I'll make sure to call my sons Leto

 

[Rationalsanity]

Remember that you can choose to ignore the event chain and the AI can't get it.

And I'm expecting it to be rare. Possibly once per game like Satan spawn or Jean.

They were just talking about how diseases will be harsher now. Immortality is just going to remove natural death by age. You'll still be able to catch the diseases going around or simply get captured and executed.

As far as I understoof how diseases work on characters in game, they just lower your health making it easier for you to die of 'old age' and just give a different death reason when you actually die while having a disease. So diseases kill by the same mechanic as old ag does and will therefore also be eliminated. If they didn't change how disease affects characters that is.

I personally would be fine with that, but thata just me I love crazy features. I also hope its free in char creator or very cheap. Because whats the point of living forever if you are an ugly, stuttering clubfooted incapable inbred imbecile who is afraid of rabbits.

I would likely do it once, to play around with it and hopefully do something cool. However, it sounds to me like it will be something that after the first time, I will not want it to fire. Part of the fun for me in ck2 is instability and danger in the realm, and succession is a big part of that.
