I would much rather do 9 million escalation protocol completions to progress the quest step. I actually enjoy doing escalation. I absolutely loath the seraph towers. Its so boring , unfun and laborious to do these things much less 9 million completions. Why?? why are you guys doing this to us? Is this to force us to play some bullshit we clearly hate? Look at your numbers b4 this quest not alot of people did these events for a reason they are not fun or enjoyable. Now look at the numbers for escalation prior the the shotgun quest. I honestly thought we would have a secret area unlocked in the bunkers kinda like the whisper of the worm. This community route bungo chose is very lazy.
