I am a long time AoE player, and I know Microsoft has paid close attention to game balance and feedback from the community. Still, as a mobile game, I can't say I'm that surprised. I am disappointed that they didn't put the same level of care in making AoE2 DE possible to play on console with a controller, that they could have done with the mobile game.

Microsoft has done scummy stuff in their various product lines 25 years ago, 15 years ago, 5 years ago, now, it's all a similar story. Except where I have to to make money (at work), I'm trying to move my personal life away from Microsoft as possible.

Also you have been cursed by the ants, soon you will hear the band Alien Ant Farm everywhere you go /s
