The gameplay is great. BUT, if you're free to play, you're a 2nd class citizen. The company running this game will go out of their way to protect the assets that ppl spend 1000s of $ (literally) to get from being beaten by F2P counters that the community finds. Also, effective whaling will cost 1000s of $ annually, fyi. So don't waste your $ here if you're not that committed. Capital Games, please realize most longterm players probably hate you for all the shady stuff you guys consistently do.
