      Thank you so much! I've had a lot of practice by now: this is the fifth playthrough I'm doing which has the voiceover intros (Young Stag, Bolton, Blackfyre, Ice Dragon). One day I'll make some actual history videos, or maybe a podcast, if I can find the time.

    Dude, what a great video! I'm glad you're back with the channel.
    I'm getting to know more about CK2 with you and I hope someday to see your gameplays in 3.
    I didn't know you had disappeared to design a mod in CK2, so I ask you to consider one day making a make-in-off video commenting on how it was to create the mod and where you were tweaking and configuring it, I think it's worth it It's a shame and at least for people who don't know how to create a mod (like me), this can be a kick.
    Anyway, thanks for the excellent video. Hugs from a fan of yours!

    • @JJLGamingNL

      Thank you, Victor! I did consider making a short series on how to mod CK2, and I might still do that in the future. Even though Paradox did their best to make the game easy to mod, as I found out it can be quite difficult to find any 'beginner-friendly' modding info online, especially for more specific mods like this one.
      Happy you enjoy, and thanks for the suggestions! CK3 is a while off still, I want to get a feel for the game first before I do more videos on it.

    • @JJLGamingNL
      @JJLGamingNL  Před rokem +9

      Yeah, like I said in the 'first look' vid for the CK3 mod, the CK2 mod had such a long development time you can't really blame the CK3 AGOT developers for not immediately aiming for that level of complexity. And the first version of the CK2 AGOT mod wasn't very complex yet either. I'll give it time.

    Amazing work JJL! I'm really in love with this series! I'm guessing that your thoughts are to end the series with Robert's death or the completion of his objective, but there may be some potential involved in a Stag King of the East! Anyway, I wanted to suggest you to marry some of your people, especially Ned, seeing as he's in love. More heirs will mean that you:
    1) create your own houses of the East;
    2) less probability of losing land to Westeros if, for example, Ned dies and Benjen inherits.
    All the best, I'm so into this series!

    • @JJLGamingNL

      Glad you enjoy the content, Eli! I haven't quite decided on how to end the series. The custom casus belli's I made are just for Lys, Tyrosh, Myr and Volantis, but looking at the speed at which things are progressing that might make for too short a series. We may well go go for a Stag Emperor!
      I've already recorded next episode. Will be up in about one minute in fact :) and I do marry off some of our courtiers in that, including Ned.

    Nice work and an interesting scenario, my only stipulation is that I don't think Robert could have defeated both Arthur Dayne and Gerrold Hightower. Potentially he could have defeated one of the two but not both. But otherwise interesting story though I personally HATE Robert as a character mainly because he basically is to blame for a lot of the problems in the setting as of the current time. Essentially if he had been less of a whoremonger then I'm not sure the Rebellion would have occured Lyanna's main reason for eloping with Rhaegar outside of love was due to Robert's wenching and not wanting to be in an unhappy marriage and considering how he treated Cersei I don't think its hard to say he'd have treated Lyanna much differantly. Also I cannot support a man that condones child murder say what you will about the Targaryens but Rhaeger never advocated for killing children, but how he reacted to how Aegon, Elia and Rhaenys were treated makes the man permanently unlikable, none of those three did ANYTHING wrong and he was happy that the Mountain murdered them.

    • @JJLGamingNL
      @JJLGamingNL  Před rokem +3

      Oh sure, Robert is not a good person at all. Good character though, at least IMO.
      Robert didn't beat Arthur Dayne and Gerold Hightower btw: he beat Arthur Dayne, and Gerold Hightower was a one-two punch by Howland Reed and Ned. Still a bit of a stretch but hopefully more realistic than Robert killing both of them.

    • @jedinathan
      @jedinathan Před rokem

      @@JJLGamingNL True I nearly forgot that. Though actually I think it should have been the other way around where Robert beat the White Bull and Ned and Howland beat Arthur as they did in the original timeline. I think Arthur could have exploited Robert's temper to get an advantage whereas Ned was not one for rash action but makes a better diversion.

    • @AMinibot
      @AMinibot Před rokem

      idk about that exactly? Because I always thought it was implied that Robert loved Lyanna in a way that didn't really regard her as herself that much, as much as centred it all on *him*self. And that aspect of him would have been a major contribution to why he decided to be the catalyst for the rebellion - outraged love, yes, but also outraged pride, if he viewed the person he loved as kind of... *his*, not wholly a separate person from himself.
      Like, it's not as though one decision was made and that's it, war's inevitable. People like Robert had to make decisions too - and I feel like he could easily fit that same definition of young people being idiots, if his likely motivation is taken into account.
