Would you still do the plot?

Wow. That's tough.

But I'm going to say yes, because I enjoyed parts of the plot (gravedigging was the BEST and I'd be satisfied even if I didn't even find a doughnut). There are things to look forward to :)

As long as there was a trophy, yes. A more pertinent question might be what if it never closes like the Altador Plot? If that was the case, it'd probably take me 6 months to complete like NQ2.

Up until today I would have said: Yes! This plot is so much fun I'd do it even if there were no prizes at all! ^_^

Today, with this crazy composite mixing smurf, no. >.> I'm close to giving up, but I'm still trudging along.

I probably would, because I'm insane like that. But I want prizes all the same :P especially after today, a halloween p/b wouldn't be enough.

Having at least a trophy would be nice! I'm not as concerned about prizes anymore. That, of course, doesn't mean that I won't gladly accept them :D

I'm in it mostly for large, shiney trophies. Actual prizes are just icing on the cake.

Don't let TNT see this page. It might just happen.

But anyways, I wouldn't mind those weird junk items that you get... like the crystal balls and stuff.
AGREE!!!

If anything with the word "composite" is a prize, I may just snap. :P

Hehehe, I think it'd be cool if we got stuff like the Madvine Root and Bone Testing Potion as prizes. XD I just thought those two things looked particularly cool.

Hey, I absolutely insist on receiving that free t-shirt or other worthless item, just like I have in all the other plots that I've done. :D

The biggest problem if there were no prizes is that there wouldn't be so many players actively participating, so it would have more the feel of NQ2. In spite of the fact that you can actually receive some great prizes from the game, the drudgery can become brutal. Getting through insane level had less to do with the prize that I could get at the end than refusal to be beat by boredom. (Although I do admit that by the end, I really felt that I'd earned that Wand of Reality...)

Hmm...
I'll still do the plot if I can get a trophy.
But if I don't even get a trophy...NO! :D

I'm greedy, I don't think I would have slogged though all those potions without hope of a prize.

Then again I played both NQ and NQII (before prizes), on normal. I wouldn't have done NQII on Insane without prizes 'though, even though mine did end up sucking.

If I see anything with the word composite OR potion as a prize I WILl go nuts.

and if there was no reward I think I'd have given up.. we've done far to much for there not to be something decent.
