On Facebook you announced today.

"Neverwinter
#NWXbox has come a long way since its launch over a month ago. We have pulled together a quick overview of just how much the game has grown.

We also have a special gift for the select few who were among the first to reach Level 60! Do you think you're one of them?

Check out the monstrous statistics and what gift we're giving out here: http://bit.ly/1K5emYv "

I decided to move my reply to the forums for other peoples feedback too. So here it is...
"Really? You're going to reward those that decided to bulldoze through the levels instead of kicking back and enjoying the game that you painstakingly created? What of those of us that READ every lore and explored everything there is to be explored? Sure it took a LOT more time to reach 60 that way but We enjoyed it. a LOT more i assure you. We are the ones that found the secret bosses and dungeon chests. So you choose to honor those that just Min maxed or might have bought their way to the top... Wow... just wow...."

    I believe that we're all what has made this game what it is so far, not just the speed players. I have poured many hours into this game, testing different characters, deleting them and starting over. To me, it's about enjoyment of the game, and playing with my buddies. I wish I had blazed through it now if I knew I'd get a companion or reward from it. I doubt the reward would be worth it, but I haven't got an epic one yet as I'm working on gearing up right now. The people from the beta to hit 60, well they deserve something. I'm sure it was a small period of time, and to reach max level in what I assume was a super buggy game is an accomplishment.

    I'm not saying the lava dude doesn't look cool - but it's no different then the normal one, and it's not like it's a game breaker.
    They've had other thank yous to the wider community, and I'm sure there'll be more.
    I think PW is doing a great job at keeping us entertained and engaged with events and rewards that everyone shares.

    I ra ise my glass in a toast to the first 60 no lifers that reached level 60 first by living in there parents basements and not seeing the light of day for a long time i bow to you so so much because that is whom the creators of neverwinter have chosen to reward lets forget about those who have lives and jobs makeing it near impossible to play more then 3 or 4 hrs here and there cause you know we know theres more to life then geeking compleatly out and doing nothing but playing a video game though a good one yes so a big thank you neverwinter for <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> us over mind you most of us that took longer to get to 60 have payed money for mounts and companions real money yet you would rather reward those that had no life and i point out again in most situations live in there parents basement im sure they would burn if they stepped out into the sun so yea thanks again perfect world for rewarding not your true fans of the game we all applaud you for that cause ya know makes me for one not really wanna spend another dime on your game you did a good job there in letting down im sure thousands of fans of the game and i promise you i wont congradualte those that have those mounts i will how ever make sure to ignore them and when in du geons they will be my first vote to kick why you ask cause if they were the first of 60 to reach 60 they dont need a group to get thru dungeons cause obviously you will just keep giving them things and forget the rest of us

    These are true words of wisdom... And besides that. Millions would not want to rush to lvl 60 when there's lots of stuff to do in the game, and the end game looks pretty Cool. So you might enjoy that as well. :D

    No screw that, i was on from day one, have 5 chars, only one at 60 cuz just like all true rpg players i take my time actually immersing myself into the game.
    Sure i could have just clicked a all the way thru and been 60 and ruined my experience.

    I wouldnt be so pissed if they made it where if you do 100 events you are guaranteed a **** companion. Its like here is all the **** we made that you CANT have, no matter how many hours you put in

    Congratz to everyone that earned the rewards. Don't listen to the people trying to flame you guys. Who cares that their panties are in a bunch.

    To everyone complaining. Just because people can dedicate more time then you to what they love to do doesn't mean you should try and make talk down on them. That's ridiculous. You guys wouldn't be complaining if you did it.

    And finally, to those who complain because they immerse themselves in the game, how do you know that the winners didn't? Most probably did while they were on PC. Everyone plays how they want. If you want to play it slow, don't flame those who do it fast, as they are not flaming you for being slow. Also, if you play it slow, seriously, you should already know you won't be first in line for any of the rewards, your reward is game immersion, there's is being at the top.

    Exactly, some people probably forget that a small chunk of the players on the console version played on the PC. This means they know the story and the best way to level and how to build their characters

    There is NO issue here.


    The fastest players received items. The ones who got 60 first, the ones who put a lot of time early on into PW's game got gifts. They aren't even amazing.

    They did good, and I'll be surprised if I meet any of them in game in a couple months.

    Um i have over 300 hours in the game, only just got one char to 60.
    Your level has NOTHING to do with time spent in game.
    Doing dailies takes time and provides little experience.
    I started at 12 tuesday, the very minute the game became playable on xbox. I do not own a computer.
    As far as deserving thru time spent, NO ONE HAS MORE THAN ME.

    I dont care about the players. I do care this is number 4 event reward thing that my accounts got nothing from. After 100 attempts in each event you should be guaranteed a companion.

    And if you wanna reward the,first players, how about when the account was made, or hours spent i game? No lvl 60 has more game play hours than me,
    Edit: checked smat glass, 338 hours to be exact

    The point is, you should thank all of the players and not just reward those who have nothing better to do. I'm glad the rich get richer and the rest get poo'd on. Let's reward those with no life and/or no job and/or time off of work and/or sick/vacation days who bum rushed to end game content.

    And lets NOT reward those who took the time to ENJOY the game and the aspects of it that we spent $$$$$'s of $$$$$'s to make for you. Here's to those who ignored and sped through all of our hard work and money making a game.

    That's what I see here.

    Are you for real? I have 500+ hours in the game (and I didn't start on launch day), and most of the people I run with have over 400 hours. We all have level 60 chars, some of us multiple level 60s. We've also read and discussed the lore and tried multiple builds/respecs of our mains in that time. Heck, we're even done with the campaign (some on multiple toons) and have our artifact weapons too! There's nothing special at all about your time spent playing or what you've accomplished in the game. Why gripe about not getting something for being average? More importantly, if you really dug in and enjoyed the game like you said, why do you even care if someone else got something?

    Edit: By the way, I didn't get anything either... just so we're clear on that.

    No, they shouldn't. In the real world no one gets participation trophies. The devs get to reward whomever they choose.

    Besides, aren't you one of the VTK abusing trolls? Yeah, you are! Wow... big surprise the guy who wrote the most selfish, self-absorbed justification for VTK abuse also feels entitled to rewards he didn't earn /s.

    400 gameplay hours or just the xbox was runnin the game while off. My average is 8 hours a day, that means 8 work hours 8 sleep hours and 8 game hours everyday.
    I have a hard time believing a whole lot of people play that much everyday, i think you arent hard closing your xbox when u turn it off.
    Not changing the point tho, the point was to reward players for their commitment right? Well **** if u got to lvl 60 day 1 aand quit playing you would be getting a reward, but 338 hours isnt worth it

    It's all actual play time. It may be hard for you to believe, but there are in fact lots of people who play this game several hours per day. You're not a unique, or even rare, case...

    While I can't say I'm exactly happy with the way they did the reward, I'm also not gonna sit on here and cry about it either. So you didn't get anything big deal, move on. Could they have done this better? Yea they could have but at the same time everyone who did they beta got nothing... that's right nothing. So please learn to cope with not getting your way.

    Lol ok granted. But to try and belittle me by making out like the average player does this is just frustrating.
    And now i dont even care about the prize cuz of these crazy claims.

    I thought I did good by hitting 60 about 4 days after launch, but saw guilds looking for 15+K gear score and that shot down my pride lol darn you 22 hour a day players.
