The main issue isn't even the change itself. If the happiness system had always been like this, we as players would have been fine with it. It's that Gameloft announced it like it was this great improvement to the game that we all had been asking for, while simultaneously not divulging the specifics of the update until we discovered it after the fact.

Essentially, it's like this -- you've been making $100 for an 8-hour day at your job for years. One day, your boss comes in and says, "Great news!  We've been listening to employee suggestions and are changing things.  Now you'll be making $60 for an 8-hour work day.  But you can make up to $100 a day if you put in 12 hours!"

Corporate propaganda at its finest.
