The next Crusader Kings 3 patch is a big one: not only does it update the grand strategy game for the arrival of The Fate of Iberia flavour pack, it also makes some pretty significant changes that will impact players regardless of whether they own the new DLC. One of these changes is the complete removal of the Visigothic culture.
In the latest dev diary, game director Maxence Voleau explains that the decision to remove Visigothic was made to bring Crusader Kings III back in line with actual history. "Visigothic was always a bit of a wonky culture, a holdover from CK2’s Charlemagne DLC that made mapping 9th century Iberia very inexact but which added some fun flavour to the region," he explains.
Originally, he says, Crusader Kings II's cultures were "mostly cosmetic," and because they didn't do anything to impact gameplay, there was room to "fudge" history a bit and keep the Visigothic culture around well past its historical dates, mainly because they "added some fun flavour to the region."
