I have been playing the game for a few dozen hours now and in my most advanced game have become a vassal of the khuzait. Here a few ((minor)) issues I have:
The kingdom system feels deeply ungrateful. I have fought with dozens of armies, helping conquer cities and castles I haven't seen the shadow of afterwards. When I do get a settlement, it's ALWAYS a border sh****le that I have to defend against impossible odds or lose (given that my faction has apparently no interest in defending my settlements although it always goes to defend the others).
I have one of the largest parties in the kingdom and by far the most deadly. I have managed to hold Epicrotea, a key strategic position at the border of 3 kingdoms, for over a year now and have systematically destroyed armies passing even remotely nearby even though they were 2-3 times my size. Despite that, my reputation with the kingdom is abysmal because I dared push for one (1) city (epicrotea) and not just the occasional atrocious castle bound to be lost in 5 sec flat. I also have the gall to propose peaces which the king always refuses because, wouldn't you know, he declares whenever he has the occasion (or has someone declare on him when he forgot) and then proceeds to do nothing of use (and stubbornly refuses peace). Despite theoretical dominance, my kingdom does nothing and I am continuously bled dry to fix the mistakes of retarded AI while reaping NONE of the benefits. Fix this ****show. If anything close to this had happened historically the king would have lasted all of 5 minutes before being overthrown.
Stop incessant wars. Stop easily breakable peace deals. Rebalance rewards relative to contribution to the war. NOW. Late game is a bad joke as is.
