It's come to a point... The one point in which Gree has been doing more harm to the game than improvements. 2015 is by far the worst year in KnD by a large margin, mainly since Gree has literally dug a bigger hole for themselves with every passing week.

If you don't want to read a thread about a rant on Gree's "GREAT" decisions, I suggest you do not read this.

As I said earlier, 2015 was by far the worst year for any KnD player. Gree has constantly messed up the game in one shape or another from the beginning of 2015, to June of 2015. Let's take a look at the things Gree has done during this year, which significantly makes it stand out rather than 2014, or 2013.

First, the biggest "improvement" in KnD this year has to be the introduction of the "Dragonforged" armours. After the initial release of the Eye of Tiamat, the community had complained about the ridiculous stats of said armor. If we look at the stats of  Ancestor's and Tiamat, we can see that Ancestor's has a stat total of 4381 while Tiamat has a stat total of 5225! The stat difference between the last actual Epic (Non EB Epic) and the first Dragonforged is around 844 total stats! This stat total is ridiculous, considering that the P-2-W gap was already large enough for the game to handle. The best Epic (Dread-pirate Finery) pales in comparison to this new rarity tier, which of course started the downfall of KnD.

Although this problem does not occur on Android, iOS has still not gotten their free gem button back. Even as Android players, we constantly lose our gem button after they magically disappear, or we don't receive gems after watching certain videos. As a gaming company, Gree should be able to fix their free currency system, so it does not have any holes or bugs. Gree removing the Free Gem button from iOS is a joke, considering that Android has the exact same glitch that people use to get more free gems. (And yes, people exploited this system since their greed gets the worst of them)

Heroic Mode.... Now this one is the huge one. When Heroic was first released, many players including myself were very pleased and excited about this new event coming out to reward players with Free Epics. Heroic has gradually became a way for players to receive exclusive and unique armours to an event which no one cares about. Heroic had gone downhill ever since Gree began shortening the amount of days for the players to get the fragments, just so they could earn more money from the gemmers. Heroic took a huge step down after Gree announced that they would no longer create new "Heroic" armours since it takes up too much time to create those armours. That obviously has to a be a joke... Gree releases tons of new armours every week, but they can't create new ones for a monthly event?? Having older Epics as Heroic was one thing, but having old fusible Epics is another. Fusible Epics such as Rivenborn should not be offered for Heroic, considering that anyone can get that Epic by clicking three buttons in the fusion screen. the bugs that came with Heroic Mode were not very pretty as well. The tickets for the + Firestorm or the bugs that allowed Heroic to be completed in literally 1 day during the Geoplate Heroic Mode are some examples of these issues.

NOW... CHESTS.... oh boy.. Chests..

Chests were always money grabbers, offering Epics at super low rates to make people spend gems for shiny armours. It was worse enough for players who had no luck with chests before, but Gree had a "BRIGHT" idea to reduce chests to 25 gems, 12 gems, 10 gems, 5 gems, 2 gems, for the Limited chests, Ring & Amulet Chest, Dark Prince Chest, Enchanted Chest, and Silver Chest respectively. Now, don't get me wrong, this was a great part on Gree, since chests became less of a rip-off, but was it really necessary to remove guaranteed prizes? As a person who played KnD for a while, I know that 70% of all KnD players buy chest bundles for the guaranteed Epics, and not for the rewards. Virtually removing the 8x chance for an Epic and removing the guaranteed Epic for 52 chests has greatly brought down the appeal of chests. The imaginary "HIGH RATE FOR DRAGONFORGED" mocks every player, since no one knows exactly what the rates are, or if Gree is falsely advertising to gain more money. The worst part of this new chest system has to be Grees "genius" decision of releasing Top 10 Raid armours in the chests. Now, Gree if you are reading this, please stop doing this.... You are losing players upon players since their T10 Raid armours that they spent thousands of gems on became available to any level 10 who spends 25 gems. This will ruin Top Raid runs for you, since many guilds will stop doing T10 Raids since they know that their armours will become Chest Dragonforged Armours within 1 month.

Oh yes, Gree your time is up. Expand the map... Just seriously expand it. We have not seen an expansion of the world map since the games release in 2013! The Dark Prince Castle, which a Lv50 can beat is not appealing to us higher leveled players. We want new challenges and weekly updates Gree, we want you as the community to listen to us for once! We actually have valid ideas that you can use to improve your game.

Regardless of anything negative, Gree has made some positive choices for this game.

• Introducing Milestones for Guild Wars (Many people want those 75k Rewards)
• Changing Epic Bosses from Legendaries to Epics
• Epic + Epic fusions resulting in an Epic 100%
• Thinking about veterans and new members of the KnD Community
• T250 Wars + Raids yielding older Epics for newer players to earn Epics
• T100 rewarding the + version of said old Epics
• T50 and T25 rewarding Epics

Gree is not a bad company, they just don't listen to us, the community. Other game companies that I know of, such as Gumi actually listen to their playerbase and make improvements from the general word of the community. 

I hope Gree actually takes time to consider that they need to cooperate with the community to improve their game...

If you read this whole thing, I seriously respect you.
