I can agree with that, there is a whole multitude of things that need tweaked/fixed. What do they do? They put out a bundle that we can 'choose' that ultimately is going to cost £40 (first time discount) plus the conquest, the episode track and the now more constant release rate of characters whilst keeping certain materials hard or longer to obtain.
What i would love to know is, if the whales stop because of life or cant generate youtube videos anymore where is that future source of income? There is loads of development opportunities such as mods and increasing types of everts again, it seems that they put us all against a wall and then a sales pitch.
