Kinda disappointed in false advertising

After watching an ad in another game in which this game claimed to be a true rpg I was like hell yeah walk around and and battle crap! Turns out it’s just a typical kingdom building game with a rpg feeling battle module.
“Rebalance” of combat tree with Feb-09-2018 update pushing for more of a cash grab
mcham27
Having been playing on realm 1, since before realm 2 was a thing, you can make it to HQ19 (of 24) without spending money on the game, however the “every other day” costs changes from November and December 2017 have been replaced in 2018 with additional ways to progress, and to stimulate growth... the strength/cost-efficiency of the Combat Tree was a huge hit. While it may benefit new realms, when Ember inevitably opens realm 5 and beyond, realms 1-4 will be handicapping anyone that uses the skill tree reset, or wasn’t already 70+ points into the combat tree. Maybe “only obtainable for cash” pets, or the “if I buy enough of these things, the random number generator will yield the correct combination of stats/type/element for this 1 of 3 pieces of equipment this one hero (of the 15, 4 being only obtainable via cash) needs” or having to use 10 things to receive a duplicate- which (thankfully) can be destroyed to return 3 of the 10 components it cost in he first place... sounds like fun to you, but for me it has been wearing thin. I am patient enough to not spend $20 to buy ~30 hours of time, but there is a point where the frustrations and disappointment outweighs the relationships with the people that warrant logging in, repeatedly every day, and spending hours draining batteries. The 3 factions that have formed on realm 1 seem to be working in Ember’s favor, with 2 super-alliances between multiple guilds, and those not stuck on either side- yet, but it still hasn’t been anywhere near as toxic as other games of the arch-type.
Overall good with potential to be great

Fun activities, straightforward progression scheme. Misses on a few fronts. 1. Battle League matchmaking is too hard. Even if I don’t play the Battle League for a while, when I come back I’m still matched against teams that crush me. It’s too expensive to keep renewing matchups I find a decent one, if they even exist. 2. Farming shards is boring and inefficient. Give us a way to speed farm 3 starred nodes. It’s just a time sink now and runs down my battery for no reason. 3. Better explanation of elements, etc. No one in my guild has any idea exactly how the elements system works.
Awsome game, needs a few changes

Really love this game, easy to play, auto battle is slow, wish it was instant, there are 4 heros locked unless your a money player which i find unfair to the majority of the community which is made up of us no pay players. Also think they should add a feature city invasion wise, where if a player in a guild is completely surrounded by other guild mates on all 8 positions that the players attacking the center city lose troops for each guild mate that player had to travel over to get to said specific city. But yes my biggest complaint is if you arent a pay to play player you will lose alot of pvp battles
Could be great....but

Ok so this is a really good game, great graphics and I would recommend it except that it CRASHES CONSTANTLY!!! Haven't been able to get into my guild since I joined since every time I tap on guild messages, the game crashes, who knows how many guild gifts I've missed or even if my guild is in tact. The developers need to manage memory better since I'm thinking bad memory management is what's causing the game to crash. Also crashes when fighting many dungeons, mostly boss levels. Frustrating because this could be a really good game. So I've had to delete the game unfortunately. Crashes happening on armor and weapon levels that you need to evolve your items. So, until they fix it, I'm done.
PvP is rather ridiculous and inane

The game overall can be pretty fun. Leveling heroes and progression through the adventure campaign is satisfying and fun. However, other players who are significantly higher in level can attack you and take your resources whenever they want. This weekend I’ve been raided 4 times by players I have no chance against so I never have any stockpile of a critical resource. It’s very frustrating and demotivating for what otherwise is a fun game.
Unbalanced

If you want a game where you can spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars and dominate, this game is for you. If you don’t want to spend tons of money, STAY AWAY! The game is incredibly unbalanced, where someone who does spend tons of money can attack and set you back weeks, it’s just not worth it. If you like games that go okay for the most part but then you spend weeks completely frustrated, this game is for you.
Misses the mark

Yet another empire game that cannot get the warfare right. It is ridiculous that a player with 10 times the troops and 2 times your level can hit you repeatedly and wipe you out keeping you from growing. There needs to be some equity in combat, other wise new players can never progress to the higher levels. Yet another game I will have to ditch.
Bleh

The commercials say “30 seconds” but the timer doesn’t start at the beginning and then goes on for 10 seconds after the timer reaches zero.
