ITT a lot of people making extremely ungenerous interpretations of OP's post.

I get a vocal portion of you have 10,000+ hours in the game, but try to imagine how difficult it is to balance a game where unintended AI manipulation is essentially mandatory on legendary, both in battles and on campaign map.

Maybe kneejerk reactions by the top .01% of players 2 days into a beta aren't unimpeachable opinions... not saying Legend is completely off, but a lot of people here are acting like this measured response by OP is somehow insulting.

It's an unimpeachable fact that Legend's playstyle does not apply to the vast majority of players, most of whom have zero contact with the community and likely play a few campaigns on normal. CA should cater to hardcore players, but try not to forget that Legendary balance is not exactly at the top of their priority list when creating this mammoth of a game. It's always been broken, and there are plenty of legitimate opinions when it comes to what would make it more engaging.
