Again your expressing the point of contention and not realizing it. The game is about grinding as is all of life. If it told you that you could study hard, go to school, go to college, get a job, pay your dues, get a little lucky, and one day be a big time success them that should be the norm. Yeah some RNGesus loving bastards might get promotion here or there over you, but in the long run if you kick ass you'll come out on top. I'm ok with telling me that times have changed and now I need to go to grad school to continue to function at the top of the heap, but telling me that there is an option to go from high school to a quick trade school and then on to grad school is BS. Why did stay up late all of those nights grinding to get this degree that I valued just to tell me that somebody their first day into college gets the same credit and can boost their way to grad school? And that job that I grinded at is replaced with a new one and there is no need for anyone to really lay their dues at old place because it irrelevant and nobody cares about bachelors degree or a maxed Praedyth's Revenge or whatever. The world hasn't evolved and expanded it's still the same size lie they've just cut into the void left by devaluing the VoG
