This is gonna kill the game. LIKE no one was able to even fight the strongest kingdom on my realm. The power gap of whales is too huge in this game and this just buffs them even more. The only way to successfully create "war and intensity" is to put a stop to shop. For hero bundles thats okay. But the shop just makes a huge difference to big spenders. Might as well make the game a single purchase $30-60 and make it more balanced. Also server merges should be power based. Like have players from certain power to be merged with that category. LIKE 5 servers with players of 500k-600k maybe up to a 200k difference should be merged together, not realms, this way you build more balance and fairness. Seeing the huge gap just kills my enthusiasm to invest time and money into this game.

We have to stop crying and complain. These bastards are laughing at all of us ...and also of the great whales.

One of the big spenders just got the "fool" tag and is now running mad around the empirium

Well, on my server things happened exactly as we thought. Five chinese kingdoms against us, all chinese helping the big Skarn whale becoming Emperor and not a chance in hell for us to compete. Unfortunately enough we actually managed to get in first to capture. Unfortunately? Yes, because all of us got beat and beat again, not having any troops left and resulting in chinese after getting Emperor going forward to capture a big city and sending lots of us to capital even as we speak. It has become a slaughter.

This was the last server for some of us who tried to give it one last shot after getting beat by chinese over and over again on many realms. This game started out as a beautiful rose, but now it has lost all its petals and all that remains is thorns. Yes, it is Pay-To-Win and since the whale has spent thousands and paid others too, he well deserves being the strongest and only getting stronger faster. This game has been ruined and should come with a warning. It has been fun (really!) while it lasted, but it is time to say goodbye and look for a better game, or at least a balanced game.

Take care all!

Just stop spending money and give them a piss worthy 1 star rating for their greedy and disgusting mismanagement of this game that i can only call a happy accident. Like they somehow created a fundamentally good game, and then spread their asshole to take a giant PF Chang's shit all over it.
