Car feels different after ATF change

Hello.
I have 2012 MCS with N18 and Asin AT.
About a month ago, I dropped the transmission pan and changed the filter and fluid. Used Mobil1 3309.
Two weeks later, I drained the fluid and filled it up again using Mobil1 3309. I always do twice to get as much of old fluids out as possible.

The car drives and shifts fine. Not harsh shift, no weird vibration nor sound, but feels MUCH heavier.
It feels like it's constantly on engine brake, so I feel like I have to step on the gas pedal more,
The fluid I used, Mobil1 3309 too thick for the tranny?
