Let me start off by saying that I'm enjoying the game. I clocked in like 160hrs since release and the game is awesome. (Yea the quarantine makes me have plenty of time)
My main issue with the game at this moment is that my kingdom declares random wars on random factions. In one of my saves (This has happened in every playthrough actually) I started a kingdom by completing the quest for finding 3 pieces of the banner and reporting back to the lady AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER the conspiracy quest started I got a notification that my kingdom has declared war on Southern Empire... that wouldn't be an issue if they declared war on me since my strength was around 400 and theirs was 6500 but the other way around doesn't make any logical sense. In this savegame, I didn't have any vassals that could declare war (If they can that's dumb, a vassal shouldn't be able to make that decision) I just had companions. May i add that even if i have good relations with a lords faction and they are considered my "friend", this doesn't stop the game from declaring war on them.
What's even more frustrating is that there is no quick way of making peace. The button for making peace doesn't work and I have to ride across the whole map and chase some random lord of the faction to make peace. That's even worse when I decide to declare war on somebody (The Declare War button doesn't work either) and afterward, for some reason, my kingdom decides to declare war on a different faction that's on the opposite side of the map. I declared war on Kuzaits and about 10 min into the war I got a notification that my kingdom declared war on Vladia... making me fight 2 wars on 2 different fronts.
If there is any way to modify ini files or download an updated mod that will prevent this please let me know (I tried the Conspiracy fixer but it doesn't work in the latest version of the game). The game is annoying at the moment.
My second issue is with enemy lords and how easy it is for them to escape from my dungeons, I literally put a lord into my castle with 400 garrisoned troops and that lord escapes the same day and starts raiding my villages with an army of 70 almost instantly. I actually had an instance where I let a lord go after the battle, and not even a minute has passed and I saw him with an army of 50 troops.. while when I recruit I can only get 3-8 per town... Really annoying, makes me want to execute every lord but then every faction for some reason starts to hate me even if I execute the people they are in active war with and are their enemies.
If there is any way to fix those 2 issues by myself please let me know! I respect TaleWorlds for putting out so many patches but from what I see those are balance patches and not game mechanic improvement patches.
