Is this what I should expect for Nod endgame?

I'm not sure an online game should seek to emulate such sheer mind-numbing boredom when the reward is something a little less than spiritual salvation

All i have to say here is : I support Jvance and Edy22 sort of . +1 :P
Also, pilgrimage way is what a game must do. Hard way untill finish.

i saved up a bunch of gold to commit to my clan and tc needs and embarked on the quest. its very clear what you are getting into, so if u dont have the perseverance dont do it

hmmm -

i have 3 capped toons - only one on pilg.... the other two will cover the thirds rp.

No trophies for a lot of capped payers is not much of a problem - i know on the toon i have on pilg all the skills he should be leveling are at full pen - so mostly trophies bounce of them - i dont miss the endless looting tbh.

i still get the old nod experience from my caster as hes not on the pilgrimage..

really the only thing that pisses me off is the pen stays post pilgrimage but having learnt a very valuable lesson - skills > stats ill probably build a way different toon than i had originally anyways.

i dont see what all the fuss is about tbh - just grind ffs !

So to reiterate.... Wahhhhhhhhhhh .

Nod is a nonlinear game. This is news? The pilgrimage isn't that bad the first time and makes you almost immediately better and from what I hear it only gets about 20% harder each time which isn't really that bad either. Who can't make tcs at cap who would seriously want to go on one of these? If you kill decently fast you can make a boat load off of the "petty resources" anyway.

Lets not call the wahhhmbulance . It will all be ok, just take a breath.

Also.... You JUST figured out that the game isn't fundamentally changing??? Whoa whoa whoa stop the presses everybody; this is going on the front page! It's Nod and it will stay Nod.

Bro my toon was born 12-16-08 and I made him I have never traded toon or used exploits when I used my first 2 epic weaps and had my epic armor I had to buy virts before I could use them and the best weap in the game was the bsm, the the 89 crusher. we didnt have bgt or any of that stuff we have now that make nod go faster. a year after I started I was lvl a lvl 50. I know this game, this patch imo leads this game in a direction I dont find appealing at all. this isnt a whine thead search my post I dont complain (except that time I was about to solo the 105 boss and he reset the server) this is a "hey you made my game to where I dont wanna play it" thread. so troll elsewhere.

[Andressan]

actually that's about the first time i've ever used hashtags.

My point is that things aren't really changing that much. Its a new goal for an ever expanding, endless game. You not feeling like playing is kind of like saying you're upset about the game changing which makes you not want to play. Being upset about it and complaining about it is akin to whining about it. Troll? i think not. And there's not just one person i was talking about, a lot of people are whining about the patch; my take is that it's still a good thing and that I love the game in contrast to the mood shown by many.

Cheers
