Ever feel the urge to marry your sister, have her conceive a child then murder that child due to its hideous genetic defects poisoning your pure bloodline? Then wait no longer, because lncest and infanticide simulator "Crusader Kings 2" is now free on Steam:

At first glance it may look impenetrable and unfathomable, and that's probably because it is. I've downloaded it and attempted to start a game but have no real idea what I'm doing. I even managed to completely break the tutorial by having my character commit suicide (he was depressed because he murdered his brother to take his land).
But it's free, so there's no harm in trying. I'll have a go at it again, after having watched some YouTube videos.

I bought it and gave it a month of tries. At first I thought I was just a failure at trying to figure the game out but I think thats what they want. That's how the game is played. Always feeling dumb and never succeeding.

During my first play I ended up getting my backside handed to me during my invasion of the caneries
Married a wife several years older than me who only produced one hair, she then proceeded to not divorce me so I ended up failing at killing her and she fled back to her homeland
I then managed to betroth my son to his club footed 2nd cousin cause she was hair to a larger kingdom then mine, didn't check blood relations there
All before marrying a 19 old hottie at the age of 36 before being shot by peasants during a ride out and dying at the age of 37...
And not been able to figure out how to merge fleets so I could actually get my guys on board some bloody ships
I'll try again in a bit...
