The latest, and last, in the series of the “Seven Deadly Sins” Crusader Kings II trailers tackles the problem of piracy in medieval Europe.. Or something like that. Actually, it’s more like a plea not to download the game. I’m having trouble deciding whether or not the hamfisted moral here is intended to be serious. Not only that, the trailer isn’t as funny as the rest of them. Not the finale I was hoping for, Paradox! Take a look.. To...

Following the tradition of the Seven Deadly Sins trailer series, Paradox Interactive has released another satirical video. The flailing king featured in every trailer is slowly becoming head-canon as he endearingly fails at everything he does. I believe he survives through an aura of sheer luck, but I have no proof of that. This particular trailer recreates one moment of gameplay which I experienced and it plays out almost exactly the same. There may have been more...
