Don’t worry about it – Crusader Kings 2 is about the long game. The characters you play as will die pretty young, and a lot of them will die before doing anything substantial.
Which one of your cousins harbours a secret grudge against you? Who hates you now that you changed succession to Elective Gavelkind? Who in your kingdom is inbred? Knowing more about these characters’ dispositions makes it easier to be invested in boosting them up or fucking them over. It can also be really fun, as you’ll learn things about these characters you might otherwise miss. It’s a good idea to check on how your vassals feel about you periodically. By clicking on their portraits, you can learn about how they feel about you, their ambitions, their relatives and their backgrounds. In this game you have a court of subjects who have control over smaller parts of your domain. The wider world and its politics didn’t matter as much, and I got more familiar with the systems of the game while I snuffed out my male heirs one by one. My subjects and my children didn’t love this, so it started a long chain of assassination attempts and dastardly plots.
Once I played with the objective of changing my succession to be matrilineal. Pick a random noble in a random country and see if you can pursue a random goal single-mindedly. Instead of making it your ambition to be King of France, start smaller. When you’re just starting out, navigating the medieval politics can be pretty confusing and it’s easy to get discouraged. Ostensibly the goal of Crusader Kings 2 is to grow your empire and gain more territory.
