It sounds like you have some really cool things planned for this GAME!

• Battles will be available and it will be the time to steal, rob, raid, betray for resources.

• Gangs will be introduced in a cool way.

• Then Missions will be available which will provide rewards for the accomplishment.

• Gang Missions and Gangs Leaderboard will be opened as well as the introduction of Gang Rewards.

• Unique and legendary units/items (with a system like in Diablo) to make your empire incomparable to any others.

All of these sound incredibly FUN. I think people are losing sight of the fact that this is a GAME not a mutual fund. There has been a lot of chatter about ROI... but I am encouraged that your team seems to be more focused on FPD (fun per dollar). That is honestly what I hope you spend the majority of your time on. Continue making this game as fun as possible. If you do, plenty of people will gladly play and be thrilled with a small steem return. After all, millions of people pay to play video games every day. I don't know very many who get anything in return.

And for the record, I am not saying "too bad, so sad" to people who only invested in this game because they want a return on their investment. If this game explodes, I am sure those investors will be extremely happy.

Hopefully, those people can look at this as a long term investment (or a entertaining game) and do things to cultivate it and encourage its growth beyond current steemians. If this game grows, we will all benefit... while having a ton of fun!
