Please drop a thumbs up for the algorithm. UPDATE: Andrew indicated further updates for monument are coming, much happier about it now than I was in this video.
Sounds have already had a reward. After all that grinding, it should be a boss of some sort. Maybe a "skilling boss" where you get ingredients for alchemy or something that you can't get from anywhere else
appreciate the videos! i strongly think there will be something to the monument with a magic based skill in the future, something that increases ability at different tiers of the monument to increase these abilitys, so its no a 1-500 grind like you unlock something each time the monument updates. also that was my Charon in the video i was just doing foraging loops and noticed you guys! great stuff as always!
Not surprised there’s a reward but not yet implemented, all to be blamed on early access. Poor execution Andrew gower, the game has dropped daily players insanely
I don’t know why anyone is surprised at this point. There’s literally no rewards for actual difficult grinding goals in this game. The only rewards we do get are QOL things that honestly… should just be default access anyway.
There's just no endgame in BS whatsoever. No rewards in place, nothing to actually work toward. The game has some good bones, but as it stands right now there's no point in playing if the only thing to play for is more of the exact same content.
@newdad280 bruh you can literally play the first two episodes completely without paying a cent and by the time you'd max out each skill excluding alch as it's needed in the other areas also the game will probably have ep 6 released but go off
They will never allow rift storage to let you teleport to any in the game. That’s overpowered and almost everyone would drop everything to go for 500 foraging. Not going to happen.
I can only assume they never expected someone to finish the monument so soon. Just like with the Brannof quest (i believe) people finished it quite early on and only recieved EXP rewards but a quartermaster inventory space reward was added later on that you could go back and collect/use
I think you probably burned a fair amount of goodwill with Andrew Gower by making this overly harsh video. Obviously he was going to fix it. Dont become another toxic voice in this community.
The hell with whoever that coffee kid is bro. I feel bad for Toopy. That’s exactly why opting into the leaderboard was a bad idea. If Toopy had known that kid was right on his ass he would’ve gone harder. He got robbed.
mate, I am an enjoyer of the videos and fully understand that likes and subs help the algorithm but I beg, stop asking for it non stop. There is nothing more displeasing then being told I need to share your video around, like, or sub. (I am in fact subscribed to your channel, and like your videos, but literally NEVER once when you ask. and less so when you ask constantly)
This was a long grind to build the monument. It's possible that there will be more content added/associated with the monument, and the purpose of including the building process before this content was to give someone time to complete it preemptively.
I would be happy for it to be a secret/hidden quest. Tibia has a quest that people have been unable to solve for over a decade now. Every few years some progress is made though
Good thing Andrew said the reward is coming soon and was planned, its just not in the game yet. Which actually makes me even more excited since there could potentially be a part 2 of working on the monument involving the magic.
Why would you prioritize something less than 10 people will achieve vs quality of life improvements for everyone. It's a small team and we can't do everything.
imagine putting 1000 hour grind to build something in an mmo and not giving anything for it at all. uninstalled and cancelling my membership for brightershores. this game is in alpha and should have never been released. charging for it is ridiculous.
I don't see why foraging should get some special reward for reaching max level but no other gathering skill does, maybe some interesting lore but no mechanical benefit imo.
Sadly the game was released far too early. There is nowhere near enough content for players. They should have focussed on just the first 2 episodes and spent the time creating more storylines and quests.
Personally fine with the tower just staying as something cosmetic. 490 Foraging is a pretty large ask for any person when the next highest skilling requirement the game asks for is currently 61 cooking. Based on the early access release of the game putting something like the current 5 star quests at 2 stars, it does seem like the game will scale higher in the future possibly to the 100s for requirements, but currently the tower is just far out of range of the game's current level asks to be anything too important.
Completely disagree. There should absolutely be a reward for achieving that. People need to stop feeling like they HAVE to be as efficient as possible and just enjoy the game. Instead if there’s a reward they’ll moan that it’s too hard to obtain. No one HAS to get it.
@@alexandermooney7094 Well, people have already quit the game over things like a 25 fishing and 32 carpentry requirement. Having a 490 foraging requirement in zone 1 introduced to the player in their first few hours of gameplay is already a bit jarring, but when they then realize the reward is stronger than something like Spider Nest quest could really kill their motivation even more than it already does. It being cosmetic/pointless makes it ignorable for the majority of the playerbase, so it is more of a fun achievement to get rather than something that feels required for min/maxing. Imagine if something like storage rift was locked behind 450 merchant.
was hyped the closer the game got to release. It released, i looked into it for a couple hours, uninstalled, what a disgustingly boring game in a world where openworld mmo's are easily accesable
useless? gotcha. i was hoping for first 100 to unlock a trimmed guard cape or even forager with sparkles effect at the bottom. makes me care even less to grind and simply stick to getting fishing rank up.
2 Thoughts: 1. The magic reference can be the starter magic suppressor from the beginning of the game? 2. The Time reference could be the druid from the main quest in chapter 2?
I don't care he tweeted that it was sooner than expected and a reward is coming. There is no end game, nothing to works towards. Its in alpha and we have to pay for it. If andrew didn't see people finishing stuff this early than he is dumb as f. He is the one with the data. Only he should know. Player count drastically dropped. Sad to say but I'm done playing.
early access or not, it's pretty jarring knowing someone spent 500+ hours on something for little more than a cosmetic tower in the middle of a jungle... how many other things are like that in the game and kills the drive (for now) to even go for long unlock grinds?
I see the tweet from AG but do yall think it possibly has something to do currently or later with the glowing inscriptions throughout Hopeport like the swirl symbol, phoenix etc…
If I completed it the first thing I would have tried is to cast Item Rift to see if I could use it anywhere. Just seems like the completion is the only thing you get out of this, like the other guy said it would be unfair to req 500 foraging for some kind of content, because then people would feel forced to do it and that goes against the chill nature they're going for. Besides, foraging is one of the most OP skills at later levels it really doesn't need more going for it right now.
Personally I'd rather play it in its current state. Andrew's message when you opened the game on day 1 said it wasn't complete but he just didn't want to make people wait any more. You had no obligation to try it.
Early access shouldn't mean no content. This game is literally the shell of a clicker game without any rewards for how long everything takes. You sit in one place for fuckin hours on end and for what? Early access has been a scapegoat word for NPC brained humans that just swallow anything for YEARS. Andrew Gower or not, this Early Access is a flop and the player count doesn't lie. People hanging on by a thread hoping for a content update. It's pathetically sad.
Imagine they didn't put the reward there yet because they didn't expect anyone to get there this fast. I remember when they made RS Andrew didn't think anyone would get 99 quickly.
I think there might be some hidden content there. As you also noticed in an earlier video the tile at the entrance of the monument looks like a puzzled tile. I would say try using the Dryad leaf to call the Dryad at excactly that tile to see if the will interact with the other npc since she knows ancient magics and history of the world. Another thing you might try is dropping the maxed cape on that tile from Forager. Or do a dance XD
Yeah exactly. Who gives a fuck if the sense of reward in this game is shit. We should all just fuck our selves and be happy with nothing. It’s early access after all.
Please drop a thumbs up for the algorithm. UPDATE: Andrew indicated further updates for monument are coming, much happier about it now than I was in this video.
I'm not surprised at all that it's for content not yet added to the game. I thought that back when you put up ep. 1 of this journey
Tweet from AG - "we will put a reward on the monument, you completed it sooner than expected!"
Great news!
not surprised
why did I read this shit 5 seconds into the video -.-
Oh what a surprise, and just a few weeks ago you scrubs were predicting that there’d be an end game boss at level 500 Forager lmao. Pathetic.
Sounds have already had a reward. After all that grinding, it should be a boss of some sort. Maybe a "skilling boss" where you get ingredients for alchemy or something that you can't get from anywhere else
Maybe the monument reward was the friends we made along the way

It's kind of obvious there is meant to be a reward and there will be one. Why are people making such a big deal out of it?
its over 1000 hour grind for nothing.
charging for a game thats in alpha should be criminal.
Yeah dude, charged to do forager. Uhhuh.
@newdad280 bruh you can literally play the first two episodes completely without paying a cent and by the time you'd max out each skill excluding alch as it's needed in the other areas also the game will probably have ep 6 released but go off
The Monument is supposedly a magic amplifier.
I hope it upgrades Rift Storage spell to let you teleport to any of the Strange Stones like Mint used.
hi
Interesting

@@BrighterShoresCentral Excited to see what the reward will be for such a feat, 500 is no joke! I only have 1 skill at 100 and 2 just above 50

@@BrighterShoresCentral big thank you
This was a long grind to build the monument. It's possible that there will be more content added/associated with the monument, and the purpose of including the building process before this content was to give someone time to complete it preemptively.
Loving the game, enjoying the pioneer age.
Huge gz to Toopy, genuinely a humble and kind guy. I think there will be eventually be a worthy reward. Maybe related to the upcoming builder skill?
I would be happy for it to be a secret/hidden quest. Tibia has a quest that people have been unable to solve for over a decade now. Every few years some progress is made though
I bet it'll have something to do with a magic skill that will be added one day :D 🧙♀️
Thanks! I came here to find out what is the moment for 😅
Good thing Andrew said the reward is coming soon and was planned, its just not in the game yet. Which actually makes me even more excited since there could potentially be a part 2 of working on the monument involving the magic.
normalize not releasing early access games. It always leads to disappointment, even though we know it's early access..
super disappointed in andrew for not expecting this lol.
Why would you prioritize something less than 10 people will achieve vs quality of life improvements for everyone. It's a small team and we can't do everything.
This game is quite boring
Facts.
Brighter Shores should dedicate a questline to yall for the quest youve put together this video 😂 cheers mate
nice video, the full built monument was already a part of the brighter shores trailer hahaha
bro it is early access , game isn't even released yet
What percentage of people understand that this is an INDIE MMO IN EARLY ACCESS? You should take a poll 😂
imagine putting 1000 hour grind to build something in an mmo and not giving anything for it at all.
uninstalled and cancelling my membership for brightershores.
this game is in alpha and should have never been released. charging for it is ridiculous.
Lmaoo this was so expected
Get out
This game is like chasing a carrot on a stick. You'll never receive the carrot.

Did he try to do emotes at the top of the tower? Maybe activate something?
useless? gotcha. i was hoping for first 100 to unlock a trimmed guard cape or even forager with sparkles effect at the bottom. makes me care even less to grind and simply stick to getting fishing rank up.
maybe its the ability to use the storage rifts anywhere not just at the stones?
2 Thoughts:
1. The magic reference can be the starter magic suppressor from the beginning of the game?
2. The Time reference could be the druid from the main quest in chapter 2?
Ppl can't just play a game now they race to the end not even enjoy it then complain at end game..hello should have enjoyed the ride.
but the ride ain’t enjoyable, that’s why people are racing for high ranks because they’re hoping they’ll arrive at something enjoyable… but nope.
Theyre racing cus theyre mentally ill neets
No-lifers just rushing the game to be the "first of"... Sad... xD
I dont get it how people are level 500 after a month lol just when they started grinding that xp
You silly, you forgot the other small parts...

Don't let the door hit you on the way out and don't you dare come back. Uninstall now.
@@GurtGobain lol what a piece of garbage you are in the community, good way to keep people in and welcome.
@@mjesus850 I poop my pants
It very well could be because the game is still early access it’s just something that hasn’t been added yet .
Fair point!
early access or not, it's pretty jarring knowing someone spent 500+ hours on something for little more than a cosmetic tower in the middle of a jungle...
how many other things are like that in the game and kills the drive (for now) to even go for long unlock grinds?
Maybe it has something related to future content?
Bit of a let down. I assume they will add a reward later.
Well Gower treated about it at least
The stone seller, i remember the shop npc says hisbstock hasnt arrive yet from the monument, are there any changes there?
ONE BIG TROLL
I'm not surprised... I mean when you can just opt out of rank, I don't imagine anything else would be well thought out...
Pre alpha, f2p. Dude still complains
lmfaoooo
I see the tweet from AG but do yall think it possibly has something to do currently or later with the glowing inscriptions throughout Hopeport like the swirl symbol, phoenix etc…
What let down 😢
Title change?
You were stressing a bit too much

im sure they will add a good reward, just like they added to the act one 5 star quest.dont lose hope
Well this aged like milk
Wow this game is really just a clicker game. They shouldve let BS cook for another year before releasing imo.
unfinished game for sure
Personally I'd rather play it in its current state. Andrew's message when you opened the game on day 1 said it wasn't complete but he just didn't want to make people wait any more. You had no obligation to try it.

Good call!
the reward for rushing the monument is having a narrow gathering skill, that is supposed to make kps and support other skills
That's it? That's the monument?? THAT WAS JUST A BUNCH OF CHEAP DRAGON STATUES!!!
its tied to max area from data mining 500 in every skill
I doubt it's in the game yet
It's still early access afterall
Yeah exactly. Who gives a fuck if the sense of reward in this game is shit. We should all just fuck our selves and be happy with nothing. It’s early access after all.
