Just saw this and yes, this has been a growing concern - my voice has echoed about Gameplay issues, not just Gladiators ;)

Without a fantastic game, there is no point... Magic The Gathering, YuGiOh and others didn't create a bunch of subgames... they made ONE fantastic product... until that product could support the next and the next... and the next...

I do believe Hive account@yabapmatt has the vision to right the ship... so I shall stay and continue to invest weekly. Like many have said however, I would be comfortable investing so much more if things looked like they were headed in the "best" direction.

NPE > Everything Else including Land 2.0

The problem that I saw with Land 2.0 is the same as you pointed out:

WTF am I even looking at... it's so COMPLICATED... SIMPLE = BEST in "games" like this...

Anyways, here's to the BULL and may we all see SPL prosper under the full guidance of Matt's leadership!
