Why is "It's something to do" apparently a valid defense?

[BossEpoch]

I've seen the term used very often when people leap to the defense of the new relics, imo it's kinda weak, and if you're that desperate for 'something to do' in game you should probably take a break.

i rather do the relic than stand outside fc house looking at walls details

at least a goal to do til 3.2 out

Not quite sure myself. After all, there's plenty of other things people can do that are more entertaining (other games for one), so the argument against this grind is pretty solid.

That's not a fair observation, I kill lvl 5 mobs in summerford farms for hours because its something to do, and I'm happy with that

It sounds like the same reason people give for climbing mountains. "Because it's there."

If that's what the alternative is, why not select option C, unsub and so something else? Not to mention the relic will be made redundant shortly after it's obtained with 3.2's weapons.

if you dont want to work on your relic dont force others to do it

as long i have something in game to do i will do it no matter what kind of shit they put on it

cuz it's the only defense they have.

Wow that is.....probably the most masochistic statement I've ever read on the forums...huh. SE must love you....in any case, power to you but for me, I'll speak via my sub, or lack thereof.
