So, Paradox Interactive’s Crusader Kings III is out to critical acclaim by numerous publications and fans. So what’s in it for horror gamers? Well, considering that we’re still waiting on Paradox’s other big game in Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, Crusader Kings III might be able to tide you over with a little help from a group of modders known for their past total conversions.
The Princes of Darkness Mod, which is part of the officially-sanctioned World of Darkness fan works known as the Dark Pack, is the successor mod to Princes of Darkness for Crusader Kings II. The mod is an overhaul of the base game, aimed at bringing the World of Darkness into life in Crusader Kings III. As such, it revamps gameplay concepts, and use the extensive lore of its world to present a radically different all-around experience.
Everything has been tweaked. For starters, you play as a vampire. You won’t die of old age or disease, but pesky things like being put to the torch or losing your head will get your killed. As such, succession is a lesser, but still present, concern for you. Marriages can’t produce children, so they are mostly a political tool.
Religions, a core part of the gameplay, represent the core philosophical tenets of your character. It also helps you to not fall to the Beast, a literal manifestation of your inner monstrosity. Being unable to do so causes your character to become a feral wight, resulting in his abdication. You can find out more about the changes in the mod via its Steam page, where you can also download the mod.
If you like what you see (and experience), you can also choose to toss a few bucks at the mod team’s Patreon page.
Crusader Kings III is out now on Steam. Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is due out on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC in 2021.
