Upkeep is to much the average player wont be able to afford imo and there is just way to much upkeep in game alltogether between the dailys and pet system quests etc etc its just way to much i liked simple arlor. Its getting alil complicated nowadays im so lost on farming and crafting lately. I think if your not gonna remove the upkeep system at least have the option to pay for it in gold instead of just estate tokens
