I wouldn't call working dads, technologically-impaired aunts and retired grandpas the kiddy pool, but okay. Though there was a lot of untapped potential (the "Betty White playing a warlock, mercilessly killing people in PvP while saying 'eat my DoTs, noob'" super bowl commercial that was proposed by the fans before that terrible commercial with Chuck Norris aired, for one...).
On topic, really 200 kills nothing but dark matter ... that's just not right a point/token system would at least give everyone something to look forward to, fuck gimme 1 point/win and make a weapon cost 25 points, least I'd get something eventually and not just wanna put the kbd thru my tv everytime I see 5 pieces of grade 5 dark matter.
I of course exaggerate but I'm sure someone out there is going thru this or has quit already because of it.
I don't think anyone would disagree with this, though I also like having a larger selection of goods purchased through points/badges/totems to encourage repeated runs.
