It seems like the developer has decided to take Goodgame Empire in a direction different from what would be best.

I would imagine that, unless you’re new to the game, you’ve already heard about the gems update issue, probably from players who were pretty passionate about their opinions. Please allow me to recap, though, just so we’re all on the same page.
Goodgame Studios introduced powerful unique gems to the game last summer, and didn’t totally foresee that they would be combined with five-piece sets that already existed in the game. Because the five-piece sets were already completely viable commanders and castellans, the addition of the unique gems meant that players were now able to make very overpowered equipment sets that have caused a lot of imbalance in the game.
Custom unique commanders exist that move incredibly quickly and are very difficult to detect. Custom unique castellans exist that can fit eight-hundred troops on the walls with up to +150% melee soldiers combat strength.
Goodgame Studios created a closed beta group of players, which I was a part of, to test an array of solutions to this problem.
