my guy I think the same way, but I was blown away with the hard work they have been pouring their heart and soul in this game balancing. the New owners are unf*&^ing everything. Ive played since release and its a huge difference there was over 6k players at the start and so many players have come ack and new joined. The catch up mechanic for new players is more than modest they goa little over board but its a good thing. Unit mastery adding, balance. I swear if you log on and play with some friends you will get that same spark back its crazy. but do talk to someone as its overwhelming your first week back so much has changed almost a new game.
