"New game plus - quests will have no rewards..."

[Tsalmaveth]

New Game+ was literally put in because players were begging to redo the STORY. Period. We already have people beating us over the head to rush through every dungeon and leveling area as quickly as possible to 'progress' for experience. So now people who want to go back and ENJOY the STORY can do so. Not handing out exp means maybe we can do it without being beaten over the head to rush it again... NICE.

There are so many bloody ways to get exp for classes. It's spoonfed players with dailies amoung other things. NG+ doesn't *need* to do it, too. It can literally JUST be there for the 'want to see the story' people. There can be things for other people to enjoy. Fancy that.

Without some rewards that are "worthwhile", well I myself consider New Game Plus to be a waste of resources and effort. It's something I will never touch without something amazing attached.

That being said I am one of many and while I honestly don't believe there's enough players for New Game Plus to be worth creating it's been done and I can at least be happy for those who are going to enjoy it.

That all being said I could see why Gil and items wouldnt be rewarded and I am puzzled by XP (or something else for even doing it) or any reward not being given... I'm also puzzled by people's level of "Upsetness".

If folks really wanted to go back and replay the story they will do so and would have always done so. If folks wanted this as another way to level, which is silly when it comes down to it because MSQ never finished you off and just being able to do the same story missions over and over again for XP well theres a reason why that wouldnt be good in general.... and there are so many other alternatives to level quicker and cheaper.

But different strokes for different folks

I'm hoping though with the new game plus we aren't limited to one play through of it. I mean I doubt we would be but it would suck if we were. I know they said only one save but how often can that save be overwritten?

Ideally it would be like Diablo 3 and after your first run through of new game+ you could just choose the story point to go back to at will. A NG++ reward of sorts for completing NG+

Items and gil is understandable, but if the quests have no exp it would be a big let down personally. Just my opinion.

SE obviously hates you personally. No other possible explanation.

My only dissatisfaction is that you have to do it in major chunks. Last I checked you have to choose a specific expansion, not specific quests or even patches.

You do it by chapter, not expansion. The example given shows Heavensward alone is divided into 4 chapters or so, and that's just for MSQ. Later on, they will add job quests and side quests, along with ARR MSQ, so not sure how those will be handled.

They did state you'll be able to do it by chapter/patch. They also specifically used the Patch artwork for each of them to assure you you're playing through that piece of content.

So if you want to replay 3.2 specifically you can.

Wait, people really thought it would give rewards? Ahahahaha

The only thing it maybe ought to give is gil (at the same rate as the original quests; nothing major) to make up for the gil you'd be using for all the teleports you'd be doing to get the story done again. It's not like anyone would be doing this specifically for that amount of gil.

I'm personally not interested in this anyway (if I were, I'd just make another character) but I think some of you set your expectations a mite too high.

This is something I'll be looking into, and honestly, I'm glad it doesn't offer rewards. If it offered rewards, I would have considered not doing it at all because not everything needs to offer material rewards (and to offer rewards would have annoyed me). Honestly, I'm glad they did it this way. It means I can work on enjoying revisiting the story. ARR being absent has me raise an eyebrow though. Still, will be nice to revisit some of them. I'm of the mindset also that PvP should only offer PvP rewards. If it's something you enjoy, why not make that the idea behind doing it. I hate PvP. Despite how awesome of the Garo gear looks, I don't want to get it because I despise PvP. While for some things I get they need to offer the carrot to avoid complications for other players, this is about your personal journey. Therefore, it offering rewards of any kind seems silly when the whole point of it is to revisit old story.
