There are still a lot of bugs to kill and the interface needs major overhaul .. it's just to complex to do things and there is not enough information about important things.

If these things get changed i will give Sengoku a 4.5

If you flesh this out a bit, we will listen to your suggestions you know. What bugs you about the interface? Is everything too complex? What information do you find lacking?

From what little I've played, the game seems overly simple, especially compared to other Paradox titles. [more text here]
On more short-term note, the UI is uncomfortable at times and sometimes certain data is a pain to access, so I hope that will be improved upon soon.

1. It is a game with a shorter development time and cheaper price point than our other titles, so it will be a little simpler, can't argue you there.
2. When is the UI uncomfortable, do you have any examples? What data would you like to access easier?

A good game. Best part is that no situation looks desesperate and looks like reversible. From your point of view. It gives very different games.
The worst part is that it is from your point of view. From the AI PoV, once the player has reached a certain mass like 15% of the map, well, the situation is no longer reversible.

With the new tweaks to threat level and plot mechanics you should not feel as save once the patch is out. Those trailing behind will be much better at striking down the leading clan. In a test game the other day we had one clan reaching 50%, declare himself shogun and fail because he was taken down through a plot by the second and third largest clans.

After playing some more and encountering a vast swathe of oddities, things not functioning properly. I would rate this game as poor (rather than average). The initial poll is heavily biased in this regard, the mean being good and 'crap' being blatantly and provocatively rude.

The patch will fix and improve on a number of features, plus add some new content that (I think) should be quite popular. So hang in there, the patch isn't that far away.
