I post bugs on support page, so this is basically just a rant, but....
Started a game with 1.8.0. Things weren't too bad until I joined the Southern Empire. As soon as I got a castle the trouble started. The prisoners in the dungeons disappear and the number accepted varies for no reason. At one point it was negative. I 'think' maybe the 2nd number its giving is the remaining prisoners it will accept rather than the max allowed. This is totally different from what the numbers mean for everything else in the game.
Between wars I stored excess soldiers in the garrison to save money. When I stored them, it said I had about 250 of 353 there. After a quick trip around the empire it was down to 81 of 353 with no reason given and said it was going to drop more because of either max exceeded or lack of payment. Even with militia I don't think it was over about 230 or so. I never came close to running out of money, but lost about 175 troops before it stabilized.
Recently the Southern Empire declared war on the Sturgians, which was a smart move because they were warring one or two other kingdoms. The lords quickly created 3 armies, leaving nothing for me, but I figured I could follow and assist the armies. Within a day 2 of the armies besieged Husn Fulq, which had rebelled about 30 days earlier. Apparently the leader of the 3rd army had a sudden onset of Alzheimer's Disease because his army has sat in the middle of the Southern Empire since being formed. 10 days into this 'war' and none of the 3 armies have passed the northern half of the kingdom. Fortunately, the Sturgians are busy elsewhere. As far as I know only one party has attacked us, which was a raiding party I destroyed. Why did we declare on the Sturgians if we weren't going to attack them???
Plenty of other problems that come & go. But my understanding is this game has been in development over a decade. In the 2 years I've been in early access, some things have improved, but others are worse. Seems it will never get out of development, I'm sure part of my frustration is because when I first bought it I thought 'early access' was the stage after Beta testing & it would be going live in a few months. Apparently early access is before Alpha testing or whatever its called. I feel like the Devs never even play the game or they would run across some of this stuff and be actively fixing it before it was even reported by the pre-alpha testers.
