I have been around for two years, and two be honest the game in most regards is about 1000 times better than it used to be when it comes to most aspects.

The lag is greatly improved, FPS is not bad at all now, and the game is for the most part pretty smooth. I think the balance is not too far off, but I remember when the balance was way off. I think that marksmen is almost complete, conjurer is good, warlock is close to good, but knights and barbarians need some spells fixed and added. I think a complete revamp needs to be done on the knight class, but that is beside the point. I think that the resists/evades/blocks are extreme, but could be greatly reduced if certain area spells were toned down.

What I don't like is the repair costs, the little gold, the fatigue, and reduced xp. It forces you to buy premium even if you don't like it, because if you don't your sunk. Obviously, I think this Economy project was a scheme for people to start buying repair hammers. No one can afford repairs, so they have to buy the hammer because the drops don't give any money. I mean I just think that is wrong. Don't get me wrong I am all in favor of supporting my friends at NGD, but this brute force tactic needs to stop, and stop fast. I feel as though I am being bullied into a corner that is almost impossible to get out off. I just miss the days when spells were added, or changed because the balance was off, but then again I am not because at least everyone is used to it. I think if we could get this Economy thing sorted out, and not "force" people to buy premium it would greatly improve peoples mood, and for god's sake if you are going to add a premium item; it is a no brainer to introduce a drop rate scroll. There is no need to punish players by cutting down xp, making no money from drops, raising repairs. I understand NGD needs money, but there has to be another way or something. I am ok because I can afford to buy premium, but I really do feel sorry for people that have to grind it out, and then can't afford repairs. I think it is wrong, but I have also grinded without premium on several of my characters. Just saying, I think some re direction in the aspect of premium, and the economy along with some balance changes that we all know about would greatly help this game. Oh, and making fort wars more attractive would just be an added bonus. Sorry if this post is a little jumbled, but I am tired.
