unless forum experts are driving the actual development, Not sure how they're the problem unless your idea of game enjoyment stems from only reading howto's on the forum and cross-posts of galnet and changelogs.

I dont think they'll ever fix powerplay... I dont think they can without completely redoing it. Too much is manually manipulated. It wasn't designed as a module to extend the BGS, it was designed as separate (like nearly every major update) and requires too many hand-built assets and data.
Powerplay was supposed to be about giving players control and agency in a game that does what it can everywhere else to limit that...but fdev is way too afraid to give players such power and gave us the castrated version of powerplay that they did. They'll never give us faction elevation to powers or power collapse. So powerplay will be forever incomplete, broken, and pointless. It's primary reason for existing never being implemented.

you gotta think that the idea pitched was manipulated into what we ended up getting by someone else or some mandated rule that all things must abide by. Some dark force within fdev that makes good ideas into frustrating almost-good ones. How would you defeat that? Because i doubt it's just a matter of not thinking and designing out a mechanic.
