I like the epic farmyard. But besides that I do agree that the loot is not that great. Got my 3rd ancient temple, was lucky to sell one of them, so just stuck with 2.
Not sure if there is something worth getting, all I got so far is red trees cherry trees and the temple.
Why make suck a big thing and it is only there to look good?? I am not keen on ornaments and I would expect a building that size to have a function. Like holding 100 settlers or something like that. Pretty sure the first ones that bought it on marked from others was thinking the same.
