The character screen, for instance, looks identical to how it would playing as any other culture. Even the menu buttons on the right hand side now look rougher and more tribal. The UI has gotten some nice little touch-ups, as well, with the top and bottom bars sporting thematically-appropriate, wood-carved dragon motifs. And they've added some gorgeous new backgrounds, including a cozy longhouse, to serve as the set for feasting, fighting, and fratricide. The shield for the Kingdom of Sweden, for example, bears a gold Thor's Hammer if you form it as a pagan, instead of the more familiar coat of arms the Christian Swedish monarchs wore historically. The coats of arms, too, reflect whether or not you've stayed true to your pagan traditions.

Norse characters can pick from an armload of new hairstyles and beards, and wear historically appropriate clothing that even changes if you adopt a different culture or convert to a new religion. The most immediately noticeable additions are all visual.
