Self-inserting yourself as a CK3 ruler
How many of you have done 'self-inserts' of you as a king/queen with the ruler designer?

Do you go with the education/personality traits you have in real life with your fantasy self?

I never have "crafted" myself, I like to do the dice roll until I like a ruler's design, but I do often think about what *my* traits are in the context of the CK3 engine. Like I'd totally have honest as one of my main 3 personalities xD.

I'd have to have Quick, Wheezing, Irritable

My personality would probably be Just, Impatient, Stubborn

I usually play custom rulers, unless I'm going for an achievement.

Stubborn, Shy, Calm, Diligent? I'd play that!

I almost always try to self-insert just so I can feel a little more immersed in the RP aspect, but I play around with the traits based on the type of strategy I want to employ. Irl my traits are Compassionate, Shy, and Lazy, with a Melancholic debuff and an Indulgent Wastrel education.

Oh I do this all the time in many games I play. It's one of my favorite things to do. CK3 is no different.

Koei's strategy games (Nobunaga's Ambition and Romance of the Three Kingdoms) are also good for this.

I self-insert all of the time. But only for my first ruler, then I play with the traits given after.

I've painted my own portrait, see the avatar pic. So why wouldn't I recreate myself in the game? I have yet to marry my character to a lady that looks like my wife, though. What's funny is that after a couple of generations, the offspring start to look like my cousins.

Ya'll can download the spouse designer mod, craft your dna as close as you can to yourself and your wife/girlfriend/dream-girl, and do it like that. It was fun for me lol
