- Click show more to read the full description. In this series, I plan to talk about positive and negative aspects of the game from my perspective. Many of these will be live streamed to provide a platform for contributions from others in chat. My purpose in making this series is to provide a public platform for feedback from the player perspective. Hopefully, by having some "real talks" we might inspire some change and provide direction for the future of the game.
In this video I discuss the the state of the game four months after the release of Keep 40. Were my fears back then justified? Is it even worse than I thought? Let's lift up the rug and take a look underneath.

Thanks for great and honest video. I upgraded my keep to 35 recently and I'm gonna quit. I think we all know as long as a system is in place that only rewards money and real skill have no value in it we're going to see this happen over and over again. Problem with evony goes beyond this and it never gonna get fixed. I highly recommend everyone to quit this game. I spent almost 2 years on this and all i saw is things getting worse with each update. many of my friend quit the game and they were really good players and I understand why. Why should we playing and in a way rewarding such a company that treat its players in such a horrible way?
I totally agree. I’m a middle coin spender and I was having fun. Now only huge keep can fight on sever war and zero middle players so easily. I have stopped spending also lost interest. I’m seriously thinking of quitting. Their fight look like their bank account vs bank account now. Well maybe they just should show their bank accounts and end the fight. Lol
love it. You said you'd do it and not even a week later here it is. 100% respect.
One thing that grinds me is the state of server war . The way the match ups have been going for my server is like this . We can win by points in svs because our server is skilled but we can not hold our own throne against teams of players with full civilization gear sets . So to kick ass in a losing battle is often what happens and we have come to terms with the fact that we should just not bother playing it . This type of match up happens like 3 times in a row and then we will get matched with a new server and svs becomes far to easy . But we will score so much that our rank goes back upto .. your next match up is a loss . It is clear to see on Monday of svs monarch event if there is a point to bother with svs or not . This is what the game has come to for our server . And svs is many players favorite part of the game . We have to actively strategize to lose 2 to 3 svs on the bounce just to get a win to boost server morale and then we end up back in the same situation of having to purposely lose 2 or 3 in a row again. It just sucks and people are getting tiresome and restless because of it the only way we can manage it it to kind of restrict the whole server in each svs to work towards a match we can win . We do not want an easy match either we want match that both server have a chance to win . That's when the game is good because you actually have a chance . But now it's 90% no chance just due to the throne and 10% walk In the park both % are ridiculous
100% agree with you, our 1st svs was the only fair svs because we were against the server next to us. Our scores were super close and we lost, then the next svs we matched up with 200 older server and the power difference was huge. Then the next svs we mated up with a dead server that only has 2 active alliances. Now this svs we just finished, we were against a highly populated server that has 10 active alliances with big power, that a k38 and k36 with dozen k35s while we only have 1 k36 and 3 k35...
Already quit the game before Watch this video couldn’t play SVS anymore can’t defend and can’t attack because it is not feasible to purchase the rally capacity buff
Wish all your guys the best in the game and hope Evony changes to improve gameplay
Hi friend.. sortaweak introduced your channel.. you're really awesome.. 👍🏻👍🏻
Well said, hope they hear your voice
I admit, I have spent ALOT Miser bro (I am on the brink of KE 37, I can go to KE 38 - 1.2B so I building rather than trooping mostly). I still (though coining) followed your correct spending and building videos, I think they help maximize all players. But I agree, the disparity is rather large for sure. Not to mention even if you DO get all that glorious new gear, the cost to refine (Refine Stones and Gems) is INSANE. Not sure the solution, myself as a one of the top 5 "Whalers" of my server (and we have many more too spending alot) I run many rallies and try to get people drops n such - We're a 7 month old sever (almost 8? Aug 2021) and most of the low/no spenders are KE ~25-31 depending of their activity.
Once they make entry to play difficult for new players it’s the end of the game
Just go look at all those dead keeps on new servers
thank you
Great video, Thank you for this information it explains a lot. On my server we are experiencing thus and our own toxic bully alliance we are trying play by the rules and have fun and these big guns Salk us, play out of the rules and bug Tim bullying. They attack relics and resources outside KE and on nap and double time on ke event. They like to zero new players and anyone that is a lot lower power. I was attacked by them back to back my power was 19 mil and their power was 222 mil. We have so many players quit big players and new players. They have made it so we can't even play but kill bosses.
I agree 100%. You're better off buying an account that's been advanced to keep 36+ on someone else's dime.
For clarification on that wheel with the gear; it's only single fragments. You'd have to get lucky 30 times lol. Since those tokens are in packs, most folks will end up paying enough to get a piece of gear anyways.
What a shocker... smh. Thanks for the info.
isnt there one free per day? You know, to give you hope like someone hanging from a bridge by one finger...
@@tedspeed3338 I think you actually get 10 free spins per day. With needing 30 fragments and there being 10(?) spots on the wheel to hit, your odds of winning 30 fragments in any reasonable amount of time are very low. You can buy more coins, of course lol.
You also get those coins from boss kills
I agree with you, I live in Brazil where the currency is super undervalued, the game should be for everyone, it's discouraging to see the game like that.
Thumb's up, well said.
However, I think flooding the developers with complaints may fall on deaf ears. I think the only change we may see is if there are more of us like you Miser. If there is a significant population of players at Keep 35 with Monarchs above Level 35, there maybe change. But until then, things will carry on as usual.
I am fine with where I am heading in this game because at the moment, the number of heavy hitters above Keep 35 are manageable. So for now, I am more than happy to go along at my pace to Keep 35. No mad rush anymore, I will level up according to my Monarch. It may seem that I am almost idle when it comes to development but the Alliance I am a part of it's appropriate.
Very well said. My first server and I held out to hit K35. This is where previously I could start ramping up troops, have a playable keep, and start playing for real-albeit knowingly at a big disadvantage and never a contender. Now instead I'm feeling more it is about time to hang it up and quit.
Will the big spenders keep spending big if all the fodder leaves?
This is what we get from free to play games. They are actually play to win. The gaming industry is changing and profits will take center stage. Therefore YOU must choice wisely and pick YOUR poison. If you do decide to play one particular game as a free to play. Understand your limitations and lower your expectations. The game will not change for you. You need to change the game.
I started to spend with the k40 update but have since stopped because of the massive hits that those with t15 give. I will hide under my bubble and hope for major changes or I will fade into the abyss
Real talk is you got all theses Generals that are men and women. There are all mixes of cultures throughout the world, but we have no African culture for a Monarch.
So very true. There are countless generals from the same regions repeated but many obvious locations aren't represented.
It’s incredible the amount people spend on this game you can see it in the Barbarian Messages
And for that amount of spending it is not a very polished experience every event as glitches
With your strategy of high in keep production, you can get 2-4b+ a month in RSS. Multiply by 10 and stacking one person to 40, by kicking and stealing all RSS from those willing. It is a diplomatic team game and this is the way imo without breaking bank. Not everyone is meant to hit 40. Just need the rally setter to get there. It requires people to stunt their own progression though.
I could rant but I’ll simply say the power gap is massive and will take at least a year to see any kind of balance for mid and.non coiners on my server.
I would say two years. But by then, there would be new coiner gear.
I have done so many tickets I can't even count anymore. You know how many I have received a response on? Not a single one. I do love this game, but as time goes on I am getting less and less involved.
Not to mention a few high spenders can get your server matched with a server that's full of super coiners! For your FIRST SvS! first words from the ftp and minimum coiners? Well I haven't a chance why bother? Don't have the money to even try win.
Yeah I'm sorry but this game really isnt very good, its cheaply throw together strategy game, and the pay system isn't just a pay system it is setup to trigger gambling impulse and addiction. You can pay the 200 for daily and a general, and still never get the general you want. It is disgusting to do that in my opinion, and if you are going to, at least put back into the game. The lag gets worse and worse, and battlefields are constantly poop full of bugs.
Question is it important to craft Ares gears now because I feel is useless now. Your thought
I really don't have much of answer here. I'm hoping that plant gear will someday be more accessible, but who knows? Ares may be end game for many of us.
any s181 around?
guess Evony didn’t watch this video because they made coining more powerful 48% packages New general was going to destroy a lot of keeps new trap officer would buffs let people need any more rally capacity for siege at this moment
I finally push archemedia gear on forge 33 and this new planet b.s. gear is 3 times stronger🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm ftp keep 30. I'm hopeful to get to k40 this year. You think it's impossible?
It'impossible. You need allstar for K40.
If you are free to play as mentioned,there is no chance to hit K35 by the end of the year,unless gathering 24/7 with 4,5 alts and skip troops just doing buildings
@@ДушанХаџић I do focus more on building than troops.
it is impossible even for the next 2 years if you are F2p. honestly even with some serious grind its just not possible.
3-11 k31 today. Hopefully k32 in a month but I think I need like 2 billion of each resource. LOL
To be honest, after playing more than 2 years, I realized Evony is a game of idiots. Trust me it is. Ppl like me are the common idiots. But there are legendary, epic and few historical idiots. Just killed the game.
Simply put this is correct, tell your friends & coworkers what you've spent on a game you enjoy in your free time & they'll call you stupid LOL. But yes truth is that the game's top spenders have steered us in this direction. It is a business like any other so they constantly think of ways to make more & more money with new ideas or products. And there are many wealthy & stupid enough to spend this much on a game then you can't blame the devs. We all know this game is as addictive to spend on as it is to play. And as one of my good friends in the game says with this game it's never enough, he's right. Even the top K40 accounts aren't done spending & will continue to buy all the Evony junk they roll out
@@bliznickr of course my friend called me stupid. And I deserve that.
I quit the game. The game is stupid
I have been playing this game for 8 months now and am at keep 32, haven't opened my t13 yet but i will get there soon, am planning on quitting the game after i reach k35 because I can't spend to get to 40 or I will just make a lot of calveries and kill some monsters and play BOC and BOG that's where I enjoy playing the most because I play without any worries of losing troops, its getting very hard to compete with big spenders, I will wait for the time I quit the game,until then I will enjoy BOG and BOC where I at least rank top 1 or 3
