Game mechanics - I been playing for 3 months and have no idea what I am doing. I have to look at other people games play to even understand the game mechanism. For the best experience you have to rely on mods. Not really worth the money.
Level - I don't like how it so difficult to level your champions and family members. I was able to get the younger siblings family members lvl from 1 to 13. Champion lvl either didn't increase at all or just by 3 lvl. This is after 200 combat battle engagement, while I went lvl 1 to 30. I even try taking only one person through a hideout killing all the bandits and still take too long.
Quest - I think it might be a bug. I assume if you send your champion to complete a quest they would get a skill increase. I send my champion to multiple of quest and not a single skilled increase.
Skill/charms - there got to be a better way to increase this skill for NCP. I left the younger siblings in a city for 30 to 45 days and it didn't increase. I try other things and there was no skill increase.
marriage - I thought family marriage alliance will probably allow you to recruit the other family later but that was the not case.
