The newest updates disappoint me – Defender III Review

I've had this game for over six months now, but ever since the lava trap update, it has become annoyingly difficult. The game itself was always a grind, especially after Stage 300, but that's fine considering that's almost exclusively what any freemium Mobile game is anyway. The problem is that the updates have buffed the absolute hell out of Stage Mode, making it exponentially more difficult. They added those mini-boss versions of normal enemies to the end of every level, and doubled them in levels ending in 5. I'm a level 90 with a bow that does over 250,000 dps and I can't get past stage 715 unless I get a lucky end-of-round spawn. The World Raid update just seems like another cash grab; if you're not a maxed out player, the only way to compete is to use treasures and crystals to get anywhere near anyone else's damage. Plus it's always a dragon, so it's already become stale for me. This was a 4-5 star game before these updates. Now for me it's a generous 3.
