They abandoned achievement certs in favor of direct rewards.

Uhmm, that is possible. I am sorry I don't see it that way. They stopped veteran rewards and gave some vague new system. They then had a program that ran for one reward mount and never used it again. A pro SE person might argue that the mogtomes are the replacement for veteran rewards. But let us be honest the mogtomes are nowhere near close to old veteran rewards.



Now I am kind of sad, I forgot how much SE/dev use to care about players and the veteran rewards were really good. Full sets of gear, multiple minions, fantasia, and mounts. Weird they could reward players before opening something else, cough cash cough shop.

It's not just possible, it's what they did. In 6.0 we got the achievement window revamp and the achievement vendor's inventory was stripped down to some cosmetic items. It was getting to be too cumbersome and complicated to navigate his selection for whatever you qualified for.

Scrapping veteran rewards actually showed that they do care about players. It's a terrible and archaic system for rewarding people for continuing to play. Other games have eventually stopped. EQ2 stopped after 12 years.

There's plenty out there one can get for free and plenty of incentive to keep coming back.

EQ2 quitting it's veteran program made me sad. I had so much time in that game lol.
