There are some well made, valid points in this thread but I don’t think it really touches on why the game is in decline for me? I start to wonder if it is the beginning of the end and whether the game has run its natural cause? I will pull the 3 main reasons that have stopped me (and probably others) playing to see if people agree and also if anything can be done to change them.
1. The spoiling of conquest worlds by the proliferation of LMD as a primary strategy? Low morale sieges have always existed and it was nice to occasionally wipe your enemies myths/ls because they hadn’t seen a smaller player was taking. Waking up every day to another lmd siege just drains the fun out of the game.
2. Spam, spam, spam, spam! Eurgh!! I don’t mean sending a few distraction attacks to other cities to draw a bit of support away from the main target. I mean the vast number of players spamming the crap out of each other and everybody else all day and all night. And then being proud of it???
3. The increase of cheating. Perhaps the scripts are just getting better but it seems to me that more and more players are gaining unfair advantages through illegal add-ons these days. Certainly there have been some foreign pre-made alliances who seem to have been doing it en-masse recently but things like auto-militia/auto dodge never seemed to be such a problem before.
My own personal view is bringing all servers into one would only increase the ways in which people would try to exploit the system and would probably be more of a sign that inno see the end coming rather than a genuine attempt to rebalance the game.
