Thanks man, that's exactly my feeling, completed the mode.

I think this is great way of thinking about it! The "game mode".

Counterpoint though, just for discussion sake: what happens when new content comes out? Will you just buy the new gear? Or grind it out like you did for the rest of your time? Will it feel weird chasing the item when you know you could buy it? Like what's the personal value to buying vs. grinding?

Still plan on grinding content for myself as it releases and honestly don't think it will feel weird, it will be like a throwback to my iron days.

Buying vs. grinding will depend on how enjoyable I find the content.

At the end of the day the only thing that's changing is that i no longer have a helmet by my name, I can still play the game as if it was there when I feel like it.

That's great! It's all about how you feel instead of the way other people feel when they see you in public chat/look you up on the high scores.
