@EA_Jesse I understand that you guys want the game to be appealing to the new folks joining in, but at the same time the latest update has made the game sort of boring of the old players.
1. Challenges, LS/ DS are harder now. The levels that could be easily cleared on auto mode, now needs to be watched.
2. health/ protection are making things more complicated.
3. GW, again protection is making the game much longer. Longer the time, less appealing it is going to be for folks over the period of time.
4. Game performance has not improved. After playing for 40 mins, my phone still gets hot. And the game lags at certain places.
There are some good changes here and there. But if the game play itself is going to take more time then before then things are not enjoyable as before.
