2 star for allowing game play, especially with friends but making it obviously skewed and frustrating with the dice rolls in the online play with others They explain their dice rolling algorithm in some blog post in hopes of sounding fair, but the charts and numbers are just nonsense and you can quite obviously understand after a while that the rolls favor or unfavor you depending on how much you have won or lost. I have had games where the person who has not a single settlement on an 8 or 6 has won in a 2 player game with a HEAVY margin. Even have screenshots for that. Just because I won a few games before and it was now this other player's turn to win.

The platform functions well enough but the prices for the extra content are just outrageous. If I want to switch up some things to keep the game fresh and interesting (like adding more players and playing on all the other maps/expansions) I have to pay at least 180 $ per year. I haven't spend near as much money on some of the best games ever made. This is just ridiculous.
