(The civil war is in YOUR country, not the neighboring one. We fixed one crash related to it already but there may be others lurking.)
However, are you sure you were updated to the latest version? Because of the bug in the updater in the earliest release, your patches might have been failing...
I was wondering if there will be a way for the game to be easier?A lot of options in the beginning of the game require court manners and royal decorum but those are the stats that have penalties in the beginning of the game.
It's meant to be tricky! But it generally isn't the end of the world if you miss some of the early tests. Since there are logs to track your choices on, people who DO manage to achieve things should be able to give you tips.
For example, it is possible to
become a Lumen as early as week 9! But very tricky. (There's also some code in place in case someone is smarter than I am and manages it by week 8. If you somehow pull that off you'll be able to use magic in the battle. I'm not sure it can be done, but I'm covering my bases.)
If a stat is only at -1 you can still raise it, it'll just raise very slowly. Depending on your plans that can sometimes be worth it. If a stat is at -2 then you'll need to force your mood to change.
