Elder Kings 2. Everything we know about Faiths

I have compiled all the currently released information on faiths in EK2. I present images and information from both the discord and dev diaries in this video. I do not have access to the mod personally, therefore all screenshots and footage comes from team members on the discord, and/or from the dev lead Theyn's KZbin channel / theynt
I had a cold while recording this video, therefore my voice sounds off and I apologize for that. Hears hoping that I will have my voice back by the time I record the next video which I plan to be on culture

I realize now that I completely forgot to mention the fact that it is confirmed that the Dragon cultist faith will be able to try to summon dragons and that the All-Maker faith will have a unique Ristaag decision for various bonuses such as prestige and popular opinion

[@strelok9078]

Yo, I like how you showed genuine new information and not regurgitate the same stuff from 6 months ago like other ppl and pose it as something new. Respect.

[@PardonerJauffre]

Thank you. It took a fair amount of searching and cobbling together of images and information I was able to find, but the feedback has made it all worth it for me. If I ever get access to the mod I am sure it would be less difficult, but that will be up to the team to decide

[@chickenman6308]

You’re doing the work of Talos, friend. A very hardy thank you.

[@PardonerJauffre]

I'm still working on the script for a video on culture. Turns out that one is much harder to make and I keep stopping part way haha! This comment will help get me back in the driver's seat

[@chesterleierer6196]

I literally did a hop, skip, and a jump when the cultural link to faith was made. That makes me so happy.

[@PardonerJauffre]

I know right! It makes so much sense and I honestly hate the way the comunal identity tenat works. This system won't perfect it of course, but it will most definitely be a huge benefit. The best change for a faith I think would be for the mod to automatically change the faith of a county if you convert the culture depending on the faith laws you know? a orc converting a province shouldn't have to change the faith of orcs they just brought over after all

[@chesterleierer6196]

@@PardonerJauffre Oh I totally agree!... ok I lied I only kinda agree. Cause then we're getting down to the question of: "what really happens to a people when you convert the culture?" In regular CK3 it's not that big a deal because, y'know they're all human. But in EK2 it's different, humans would only make up like... a 4th of the total world's population? So what happens to that population of Nords you just overrode with orcs? Did you just massacre all the Nords? Or have the Nords like... somehow sychronized with the Orcs and now consider themselves lesser or are slaves? I have no idea. It makes having to convert the culture AND faith make a bit more sense, because not only are you supplanting another SPECIES culture (or just straight up wiping them out) but you're also potentially enforcing a new way of thinking on them. Like you said it's not gonna be perfect and there's never going to be a complete answer... but hey! I kinda like not having everything explained because that situation alone leaves a lot for roleplay potential. I literally cannot wait for this mod to release. Where's a time machine when you need one?

[@banenation]

An Akaviri play though will be my first play though easily, followed by an Alyied one.

[@PardonerJauffre]

I can certainly say that they are both hard, but rewarding factions to play. I wish you luck friend

[@banenation]

@@PardonerJauffre oh God I'm even more hyped now, which would recommend first?

[@trianqren127]

I mean, kinda of an old saying, but this channel is a god damn hidden gem my man

[@PardonerJauffre]

You have no idea how happy it makes me to hear someone say that!

[@donportuga]

yeah KZbin algorithim hidding some gold here

[@PardonerJauffre]

@@donportuga It is still surreal to me that there are people who think I make good content. I always love hearing things like this

[@anarchaz]

get well soon

[@PardonerJauffre]

I'm roughly 80 percent better already! So in my next edited video on Elder kings I will have a clear voice that doesn't sound like I'm dying. Thank you for the well wishes!

[@raulfocaccia1505]

Very Nice

[@thesmilyguyguy9799]

[@jeambeam3173]

[@PardonerJauffre]
