I was so excited to play Battle Ages since it is a 505 game and then I played it… 😷😥 Match making is horrible. The pvp list is filled with people shielded or already under attack. It takes five to ten minutes to find someone that you can actually attack. And finally when you find someone they are way more advanced in tech… The game is set up like a Facebook game which was a horrible idea for a console game. People were expecting a game like civilization, not even close. Sadly this has the pay to play and win feel to it… What has been your experience? ---

The trophies seem easy for the most part minus one or two. Mostly it will be a big long time sink to 100% it. That is unless you are willing to throw cash at it. ---

without a play I don’t really need to 100% a game unless I really like it… and can. ---
