Rant,Rambling and Drivel: Is it Fun Yet?!

[Zezlar]

I wasn't throwing out is argument. I was asking for suggestions. I didn't see any suggestions in his rant. It was just a rant. Suggestions are nice.

(And I I completed my first relic yesterday, and I feel quite pleased with myself. Is that not a sense of accomplishment?)

It may be to someone who is newer, but the people in 1.0 realize how laughable the "relic quest" is now. Yoshi-P said it would be more enjoyable, and just like most of his statements these days it was a lie.

that is opinionated. i found it quite enjoyable and from what i heard about 1.0 (cause i never played it) i would have hated that time sink.

in the end the argument is over which time sink is better a time sink that is limited so you have to play for so long to get the stuff even if it's not that long every week or a time sink where you have unlimited chances to do it but with a low drop rate and other things it just takes a long time.

either way it's still easy just people prefer one over the other, but it doesn't make either easier or harder then the other.

Comparing both versions - ARR is actually more of a time sink. The 1.2x version was more along the lines of taking you through each content and it had "Added" objectives to curve the fact they were producing 2.0/ARR at the same time.

The best part is, it actually utilized content you were already doing without necessarily being on the Relic Quest, so in some cases, you were killing 3 birds with 1 stone. Not to mention, when you completed 1 relic you didn't have to repeat each and every step, you skipped a few steps for every relic after the first - in ARR you have to repeat each and every step, which is more of a time sink in the long run.
