Can the developers STOP!!!!! adding shops to the game?
The bureau of restoration is another bloody shop that costs 250,000 gold to build... which I have yet to do and refuse to do. STOP ADDING SHOPS TO THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they want to add money sinks into the game, that's fine, but requiring it to do f2p content is absurd. It damages the play experience and has the opposite of their intended effect on the vast majority of their playerbase. This is one more shop I'm not going to build. It's one more piece of content I'm going to skip, and skip, and skip in Contest of Mayors. It's one more residential area upgrade I'm going to skip and skip and skip and skip. Trains were annoying, but at least they eventually offer some form of reward for using them. This is just more dead content clogging up the game and another constant reminder that they care about none of the players, and only target 1% of the wallets.
Another problem is based upon the description of the latest app update, the developers seem to think there is something fun about producing items...
Let me clear the air, at least for myself....
Creating items has never been and never will be fun.
