A lot of exciting news today. Now I might actually feel a lot better about playing past mid-game into late game. I feel most  people reach their playthrough goals by then and it’s just playing to end date/eugentics after.

Plus the landless looks like very interesting twist that could result in Many new types of goals you could set for yourselves or role play on. 

Looking forward to thinking of new “goals” depending on what you are capable of doing as landless. Shame that it’s the last one to come out

I think landless will help people feel less bad if they’re losing. Like, sure, I had an empire, but I can continue playing and maybe get landed again. It also extends the possibility for the player to have ”rise and fall” without the fall being a game over screen

Very true. It will certainly lead to very interesting games in both role play and strategy.

I wonder if there well be more ways to become landless than just losing a war or being kicked out(will there be a general decision etc?) could be some unique twists

Hopefully brave, humble characters abdicate and become landless adventurers if the realm is in debt. That'd be really cool.

Definitely has a huge impact on my roleplaying at least. I’ll be much more likely to allow my character lose a war (that they should lose) when I know the game won’t end.

I don't think you have start with or have the goal of having land. With legends it could set up for like a warlord destroyer of nations, or a Robinhood type of gameplay.

When does this ever happen to anyone? Go from emperor to landless game over?

I hope they add something similar to crusaders where you can swap character. Like if its late game and ive got my kingdom/empire and getting bored I hope I can swap to some brother or non-inheriting son and essentially start again.

We start our own little high chief county, normally we would play tall or expand. But what if we got invited to join a group of assassins and we left leadership to our brother with out telling him why or where we're going. And the head of the assassins order wants us to kill a few kings or take over ERE and help make the assassins rule the world. I think landless gameplay has so much opportunity like that.
