You have to remember we failed first before two realms. We faced all the problems before everyone.
I think it's good since we're all relearning the ropes. Some of us are returning players getting used to new mechanics, and a lot of us are just now seeing how they should fight on a War Island - particularly post several years since the last one sank. There have been major hiccups on the way, but ultimately we're playing to learn and have fun.
