To me next league seems like some ANNO game.. doesnt really fit in hack 'n slash Diablo like genre.

I mean, a tower defense minigame doesn't really fit into the genre either, but here we are. They're innovating, and you have to give them credit for that. We'll have time to try it out and give our opinion.

The town mechanic will only consume as much time as you want to give it, and should mostly run by itself in the background while you're killing monsters. Just set it, and forget it until it's time to collect your next batch of rewards. It doesn't look anywhere near as fiddly as the gardening in Harvest, for example, or the crafting in Necropolis.
Add to that the stuff that's being added into maps this time around, like the Sentinel and Affliction events, and I don't think it's going to feel that slow once you're in there. Like a lot of things, you'll get out what you put in. If you go in expecting to be miserable, and writing it off before even trying it, then you probably won't enjoy it much. Personally, I'm looking forward to it. Remember, remember the 6th of December...

" Game has been going 10+ years, ideas for league content need to get exotic to make sure it isn't stale...this IS a good thing, even if you don't like it. Also why do some people see the league and come to the conclusion that it is something else entirely, all you are really doing is queuing up content so you can be rewarded while not online...but ONLY if you play the game to earn the gold to facilitate this, gold can't be traded so YOU have to gather it yourself.

It's not a slow league. We're finally back to a "find a thing on the map and kill all the enemies near it" league. You just return to the town every once in a while to process your extra extra loot with a few clicks.
