The mean comment was simply referring to not waiting at least a day (after the patch is out) before complaining.

A Last comment I am not sure about: is the plural form of Hippocampus supposed to be Hippocampii? (It is the spelling in the Triton King description) Similar words I can think of ending by -us have a plural form ending by -i, so that should be Hippocampi.

I am not sure of that though, since I have not been able to make sure Hippocampus follows the same pattern as stimulus, succubus and their little family.

Edit: I should have looked that word up earlier. Hippocampus has a plural form ending by -i, so Hippocampi.

A minor thing, but here it goes: when an aquatic unit ends its turn in a land province, the following message is given: "XXX the YYY drowned in [province]". The same is the same as for land units drowning in the sea, but does not make much sense when applied to an aquatic unit drowning on the land.

The pretender titles have some typos in them. The word "Minister" is systematically misspelled "Minster".

The desription of the heroic trait "adept researcher" spells extraordinary incorrectly as "extrordinary."

There is a "Lychantropos' Amulet" in the game, while it should be a Lycanthropos' Amulet, if the noun is based on lycanthrope . If Lychantropos is actually a proper noun, an extra S might be included in the Amulet name, as in "Picus's Axe of Rulership".

Another cosmetic thing: one of the game hints states that "you may resume the construction of a fort if you are interrupted". I believe it requires some clarification: in my experience, you can only resume the construction of a fort if you have cancelled it, but haven't lost the province in the meantime.

Losing a province will effectively cancel all progress made on a fort (unless I am grossly mistaken here), while some players may expect to be able to continue building their fort at no extra cost. Or perhaps it is just my interpretation of "interruption" as in "lose the province temporarily due to enemy forces".
