They make it hard to control a wide area. Seems like as soon as you try to expand all your vassals break away and destroy you. Can't keep them happy one minute they will have a 90 positive feeling toward you and the next month drop to a -3
It's very slow moving and the interface is not very intuitive or quick. Historically accurate? Probably but there are many games of this type that are better.
This is the first strategy game of this type that I've played, so I can't say how it compares with other games, but I really enjoyed it--while it lasted. Once your territory starts getting big, it freezes your whole computer. Can't alt-tab out, can't end the program, you can only force a computer restart, and when you try to play it again, it freezes immediately. (I did confirm that my computer and drivers can handle it and the problem is not on my end.) I did some searching online, and many other players have this same issue and have not found a solution. After a certain point that varies but won't take you that long to reach, the game literally cannot be played. The only way to get it going again is to completely uninstall and reinstall, but the problem will return.
If you don't mind all that, I thought it was pretty good. Soundtrack is nice, seems fairly historically accurate. Interface isn't very intuitive, but if I can figure it out, anyone can. Graphics aren't great, but since you'll spend most of your time zoomed out too far to see the little castles and walking ashigaru, it doesn't really matter.
Good luck figuring out how to play this game.. Figuring out the controls/ charts is a nightmare. I don't understand how anyone could rate this game anything more than 1 star after trying to spend an hour figuring out how to do anything.
The whole GOG system stinks for reviews and this is a perfect example of what I am talking about. I will probably not buy any more games on Gog after this
