Mod kept me on the edge of me seat the entire time, was very engaging and rewarding to slowly build up my forces and defend myself from AI attacks which attacked me with a massive amount of ships.

However...once I build a "Viscount" Battlecruiser, the mod undoes all of its greatness, all the gameplay that was centered around effort and reward came crumbling down, I no longer had to put in any effort, I could just go in with this one single battlecruiser in any space battle and obliterate all AIs while doing absolutely nothing, no tactic, no effort, literally nothing.

It felt like I had enabled Godmode, pure cheating, and even though I only had conquered 1/4th of the galaxy and wanted the game to continue, the mod basically said "game over, you won" and all the engaging and rewarding feeling I got from before was now gone.

Granted, it might have been Endgame, but that shouldn't mean its the "end of game", I still had plenty more to do, or at least I wanted to.

The main issues of this "Viscount" battlecruiser:
-is so big it doesnt even fit onto the normal battle-screen.

-it clips through everything around it, my own ships were inside of this ship, I could move to the enemy base and the base would literally be inside of my battlecruiser.

-due to its enormous size, the texture stretched and looks low-quality.
-pure cheat, 0 effort, destroys everything, couldn't be more boring to play with and ruins the game.
-its got an insane amount of turrets, which seems to be able to shoot across the entire map.

But once I mentioned these issues on their discord the real fun began, at first I got push-back, as if simply stating this was somehow an attack on their work and the initial responces I got was defensive, so I kept pointing out the issues, even with a screenshot, in hopes someone would realize there was indeed something wrong with these ships, but instead I got ridiculed with remarks like:
"you need to rotate your camera and zoom out to max to see the ship"
"the ship is in perfect size with the lore"
"don't use this ship if I don't like it"
and my favorite one how I'm "half brain dead"

This was not the kind of reaction I was expecting, but it became clear that nobody really cared how OP and gamebreaking this "Viscount" ship is and any critique about it should be kept to yourself.

Needless to say, I tried to make clear that things like this should be implemented in a balanced way, so it stays within the limitations of the game and that one should not only look at lore but also keep balance and gameplay in mind, but once again I got nothing but push-back for just suggesting it.

Granted, I should have just shut up on the discord at this point, but I didnt and it all just kept escalating more to the point where someone banned me.

But its really all about Reward VS Effort, give such a cheat ship to the player, regardless if its endgame or not, and it takes away all meaning of the game, any challenge to keep the game interesting and engaging is now gone, there was no point to even continue, and part of that frustration probably made me go on their discord to explain the issues with it, but then I just got more frustrated due to what I mentioned above, and tit for tat, escalation, then the ban.

But it wasnt with bad intent I mentioned this on discord, I guess it was because I really liked the mod, but this battlecruiser ruined it for me. If I did not care about the mod I wouldn't have said anything at all, though imo a temporary kick or mute on discord might have sufficed instead of a permanent ban.

Niko, if you read this, my apologies, and plz consider downscaling those insanely large ships to be smaller and playable and/or move them to the lowest combat layer of ships like the vanilla Imperial battlecruiser.

Keep it gameplay friendly.

ps: I recently tried the "Pride of the Core" battlecruiser, and that one I love, its not OP, doesnt have a gazzilion turrets, turrets don't shoot across the entire map, fits on screen, looks good with texture(not stretched) and generally doesnt clip through everything around it.
I hope more battlecruiser will be like the "Pride of the Core", balanced and playable.
