I love the gameplay style, story and appearance of this game and for that reason I've overlooked its issues in the past, namely lots of bugs and too easy (AI is easily beatable even on Endless difficulty). After not playing in a while, I saw there are a bunch of new patches to address issues in the game. Excited, I started a new game and immediately I am having issues. The bug where the thumbs-icon on minor systems indicating when your praise is running out being wrong still exists (this has been an issue a long time), and my turns keep getting stuck in pending. I have to reload every other turn and it's just not fun any more. I've encountered many other bugs in this game in the past, I don't know if they are fixed or not now, but it seems there are way more than in a typical game. I've also played some Endless Legend and encountered many bugs in that game as well. This makes me not want to buy any more DLC or your games. I'm sad because HUMANKIND looks very cool but I don't want to risk $50 on a buggy game. Sorry to be so negative but I am only saying this because this game has so much potential and promise which makes it extra disappointing it has so many problems. I hope that the devs take note of this and put even more resources into fixings bugs and improving the AI to encourage more players to keep buying their products.

Is your enter key broken?

Did you ever try to dissmiss the battle reports listed to the right side of game screen - before you hit end turn? If not, this is the reason for the endless pending bug you're experiencing. Since latest patch you have to do so. The reason for this unlucky mechanic is to prevent you from a certain bug, what is removed by this workaround.

Do you mean the ones where you choose your tactic, or the ones that occur after the battle? I always make a choice on the pre-battle ones.

He means battle report screen, where outcome is announced. Do you dismiss them?

I tried dismissing every report and it still got stuck on pending.

I can

gross. Not only did that lock me up at Pending Turn, but when I tried to exit to the main menu I was stuck on a loading screen. Never had that happen before. Does that only happen in Multiplayer setups?

No, single player also prone to lock out eventually.

I agree. My every playthrough is praying so that i won't get any game-breaking bug, which happens quite often for me. For instance, I play Riftborn and i can't just end turn, it's on "pending". I managed to move a turn, when i found out, that Umbral Choir was trying to, i guess, attack my fleet in the system they were guarding (Sirius system on screenshot), but they couldn't for we were in truce. I think AI is programmed to attack every fleet when it's guarding the system...So i loaded the previous save and slipped pass them with invisibility. However, there must be another issue somewhere, since i can't end turn again...There goes my Riftborn playthrough i guess...
