Yeah it used to be a good game but the feminists and SJWs ruined it as usual with their need to not only add the queens because "diversity," but they even added that ridiculous transgender agenda crap where the pawns become queens and that makes them more powerful because the devs wanted to promote and "empower" that nonsense. It not only ruined the game balance but also immersion because women (let alone transgender people) didn't lead armies in the middle ages with the exception of like, Jon of Arc, but that was really atypical even though the devs are trying to make out like it's representative.
I wouldn't mind it so much if the female and transgender characters were optional DLC but it pisses me off that I actually have to play as them, especially if I want to actually have a fighting chance to win. It's especially dumb considering the playerbase is overwhelmingly male and yet they are pandering to women because the SJWs always mention Judit Polgár as if she wasn't an anomaly.

Hey guys I've played about 6 games now and holy fuck this sucks. Black is super overpowered, and Sicillian sucks ass and no one likes it. And why isn't there more communication with the community? I have some ideas that I think would help this fucking trainwreck a lot.
Firstly the pieces are all unbalanced. I've mostly been using the knights, since rooks are gay, and jesus christ they're underpowered. Their HP is basically non-exsistent, and their movement pattern is honestly worse than my neighbours blind dog. I suggest adding a ranged attack to give them a little fucking use outside of fucking paperweights.
I also think the way this game handles promotions is fucking stupid. In real medieval combat a pawn (stupid name by the way) wouldn't get to have sex with the king just because they managed to run 8 fucking meters. I suggest adding a new mechanic where you need to seduce the king over a high school semester to finally become a queen (also give the pawns bigger tits)
Finally it's pretty stupid that when pieces are killed, there's no blood. Why do the devs need to sacrifice realism just so that stupid fucking kids can play a grown up game. In real history kids didn't lead armies. Besides, an 8 year old fucktard should never beat a 28 year old modern genius who's studied military history for literally months. It's just because of the stupid fucking balance that fucking ruins my 100% accurate reconstruction of 13th century mongol tactics fuck that bitch Timmy and his stupid fucking glasses.
