Over and over again the game is like "you need to decide" "we'll trust your decision" etc etc. Except...they dont and you dont GET to decide, you don't even get a VOTE. You can act as an ADVISOR and try to sway the people who ACTUALLY get to choose, but your own choice doesn't actually matter

It takes something away from the "responsibility" the main character bears as lord when all major decisions are made by simple majority rule that he doesn't even get a vote in.

Like, if the narrative reflected this it wouldn't bother me so much but it keeps acting like the group decisions are his decisions and it breaks my immersion immediately every time it happens

Which is a shame because the majority of the game has been really enjoyable, its a very satisfying play experience.
