There is SO MUCH grind involved with this game. It would be much more bearable if you got a territory to 0 and it stayed there for the rest of the game.
So, for about the first 3 levels of this game I thought I was playing Epic War 5. I was very confused why they changed so much of the game. Then I realized I am a huge idiot who can't read properly.
I honestly think everyone should stop complaining about the difficultly level of the game. It is a bullet HELL game. It is supposed to be hard, and I can appreciate a developer who won't sugar coat the difficulty of their game in order to appeal to a wider audience. Very fun game.
