The game used to have events with very impactfull reward, and completable as FTP. Lately all the events have been heavily paywalled. Additionnally the system of alliance in the game is becoming more and more toxic, as you NEED 23 players to be aligned with you on the time you spent on the game, and also the money you spend. This gives rise to a system where if you dare take a day off you'll actually be screwing your whole alliance, and the game seems to encourage more and more this direction.
