EATs are considered New Game Plus content (hard mode). New characters are, well, new games.

I believe in replayability.
There really isn't anything I can say (for a change) that Kellis hasn't already said here. The game "ends" when I hit 50. I can choose to stick around, but it won't make it any less "over."

We'll see if the Incarnate level cap raise will change things to "when I get all Incarnate points" or if it will bar me from getting any by myself, thus leaving 50 as the final reasonable goal.

For me, beating the game is completing every story arc relevant to the "Main" story in the game.* As a villain, there's one main story: The Destined Ones. Once I've completed everything connected to that, I've beat the game and am, mentally, on "New Game +" mode when exploring the rest of the game.


Just occurred to me, as I only recently completed Operation: DESTINY. As I laid me down to sleep, I thought to myself two things: "FINALLY beat the dang game," and "FINALLY started the rest of the actual game".

Thoughts?




*I am a "Villain", so please keep that in mind.
I haven't beaten the game yet. I still have open character slots on many servers.
