I was hoping for a game like suzerain that was more interactable/sandboxy. While I can see some of what I wanted, it was though an opaque and blurry lens. Translation issues, UI issues, and mechanic transparency issues are all holding this game back from what I beleive it can achieve with it's robust core.

And I do believe that the game is robust at it's core. For example I had a hard time even figuring out how to get elected, then I managed to do so by getting good relations with the church and then bringing the church up during debates. It was cool to figure that out all on my own, but I still beleive that the game would be much better and much more enjoyable if there were paradox-style nested tooltips explaining how every mechanic interacted with every other mechanic. (I still haven't even figured out how to formally ally with a faction!)

TLDR: Bad translation, bad ui, bad mechanic transparency issues. It needs better UI and modern-paradox style tooltips.

I formed a cult of trotskyism and, directly quoted from the game, "before the form split, the 4th International was reformed"
as a certified trotskyist, i can conform we will split into 12 different sects, like this game predicted
