Medieval II is probably the best in proportion to release year. I can't play it now, the camera drives me nuts now days compared to the modern ones lol. I've been playing since Medieval I days and pretty much all of them since minus a few. I would flip out if they announced Medieval 3, as the political and Catholic political systems of 2 were highly interesting to me and if they expanded on that I would be pumped!

I always enjoyed obtaining all the Cardinal positions and then assassinating my own Cardinals/Pope's until there was no one left to appoint new Cardinals, thereby breaking the Papal States! I loved trolling the game haha.

Yeah if looked at in the most objective way possible I agree Medieval II is the best. I'm with you in hoping a potential Medieval III builds on the religion system and the politics. I also hope, though that might be complicated, that they come up with a way to accurately represent the Holy Roman Empire. In the old game it was just a regular faction but of course in reality it was a collection of kingdoms and duchies united by an overarching Emperor.

And most of those princes were Protestant, if I recall, making their loyalty to a Catholic Emperor in question.
