No Icon Completion Trophy? Wassupwiddat?

I don't get it- you can get a trophy for gassifying a few different gasses or one for completing EACH set of musicboxes, yet you get ALL 11 Icons and- nothing? That's earning 121 completed Emblems, BESIDES the donations required to speed learning, which is a long-term balancing act between the needs of skill advancement vs set completion.

I mean you have to put in a heck of a lot of dedicated effort to accomplish this, and yet...............?

I love the game and the players, the originality, the challenges, complications, on and on. I' m not being petty here (at least I don't think so) and I'm not intending to complain, just seems 'off' , you know?

LATER: Some people are missing the point: I agree that each icon is somewhat of a trophy in itself, but there should be a Completest Trophy for having shown the dedication to finish (earned, not auction-bought) such a quest. Again, you get a Uralia Completest for having stepped on just a few roads, etc. Collect a set of musicboxes, you get a trophy. You get one for completing a set of all 11 first emblems, so why not one for having brought the task to its logical end?
And BTW: you cannot place icons in your trophy case, so they themseves don't qualify as such in the literal sense, and they take up a helluva lot of floor space if laid out. I actually carry mine in a bag for mood, energy and XP boosts when I need/want them, so there's nothing on display in the house. You can't carry a trophy if you try, so the idea that one equals the other in some way is untrue. I think an Icon Completest Trophy is/would be a legitimate, well-deserved display item.

  • I had this same thought. It really seems like there should be a little series of badges for the icons. They are one of the most difficult things to collect in the game. Perhaps a badge for the first one, another around 7 and then one for completing the collection seems like it would be nice.

  • I felt (and feel) the same way.

  • Maybe they do plan on having a trophy/badge but it's just not a high priority thing right now.

  • Well, if you think about it - the point of the trophy is to display your accomplishment in your homes.  A set of icons pretty much does that already.

  • You don't get the trophy until you've finished tithing to them.  (*snicker*)

  • I fully agree that completing the set of Icons should be an accomplishment; don't need a trophy, just a badge.

  • Fairway Solitaire II has a "trophy trophy" for collecting a certain number of trophies...

  • I agree, it doesn't have to be a trophy, but a badge would be in place. There's a badge for EVERYTHING!

  • Ah, me and a friend have a suggestion for Icons that we're slowly working on... you'll love it!

  • Well, I can agree on a badge.  Having a trophy is just redundant IMO.

    "Oh look at my trophy from having a set of icons...never mind all the icons you had to pass on the way to it."

  • +1 I was surprised there wasn't some sort of trophy or badge when I got all 11. Maybe they figured that since each icon was a gift that kept on giving (so long as you tithe of course) that was a big enough award. But an acknowledgement of the feat would have been really nice.
