After Prophecies
Note: Regardless of anything, I'm noting possible spoilers in regards to the end of Prophecies. So if anyone complains about me ruining Prophecies, then I know you can't read. Either way, if I am or not, I'm still saying this.
I'm just curious... after you beat Prophecies, that's it. Then again, you're able to tackle the Epilogue Quests, but with every other game, you're allowed to have a free green item from trading a certain special item. Prophecies didn't have this at the time since, we all know Prophecies came first in the series, so I am not surprised when I see people say nothing happens after you complete the final mission.
So here's my question: Should anything be done to give the ending of Prophecies something equal to what the other games have, or should things just be left the way they are?

I agree with Kyrein - Leave it alone.

And those are great and all, but kinda pointless considering how worthless the rewards are.

"End game" weapons and armour didn't come around until Factions. The Titan quests themselves didn't come around until a few months after Prophecies was released.
Don't expect to get anything added any time soon, they've already stated that they will not make major updates to old chapters, and Prophecies is the oldest.

Prophecies is the only game that I still play as a real game. It's where I actually read quest notes and look at the environment and I still do now whenever I make new char. Other games are just to farm either loot or titles. So end game is not a big advantage of other games compared to Prophecies

***SPOILER WARNING***
I havent finished Faction yet, but compare to NF and GWEN, Prophecy's got a REAL challenging mission at the end game boss.
Abadon goes down in 5 min, a bit more for the Great Destroyer.
Leave Prophecy as it is pls

On the other hand, some have more useless skill points than they will ever use for all the GWEN consumables or Capture Signets in their entire Guild Wars life.
I don't really favor the idea of endgame greens as a reward, but I'd like to see at least something for beating prophecies rather than a few epilogue quests, even if not a major update.

Ummm, green weapons didn't exist when prophecies was first released. That is why they don't have endgame greens.

For me, prophecies is the best game of the 3, but the rewards are a little too poor ; the storyline + scenery does compensate, but I'd really like if prophecies had endgame armors (I don't really care for endgame weapons).

It is sad watching the gradual demise of GW as GW2 moves further along the path to release. Sad, but that's the way it goes.
It would be nice, however, if they could spare the time to add a little end game content to Prophecies. A nice Epilogue section like all subsequent chapters/expanion have had, with, yes, end-game weapons and armour.
Why not?

Prophecies got Sorrow's Furnace added a few months after it was released. If you check Guild Wars Wiki, you'll note a fairly large selection of green items there. You may want to do a little farming, if a green item is what you're after. Now, I do understand how you can be annoyed that Factions and Nightfall give greens after completing them, but they're not the end-all be-all of items, and the weapon models aren't that spectacular either.

Personally I'd rather see them add some big CG scene than add some more greens to the game. Most all of the greens in the game are becoming worthless very fast anyway, not many are over 5K now as it is.

Sure, Prophecies got Sorrow's Furnace - in the same way that Factions got Urgoz's and The Deep and Nightfall got DoA.
Not the same thing at all.
I'm just saying that an epilogue would be nice. Endgame weapons and armor would be appreciated by many - sure, there's a lot of people who don't like greens, but then again there are many of us who like such things as collectors items. Wouldn't trade my old Victo's for the world (wouldn't use it either, but that's not the point )

The actual "final boss" part is easy as hell, the rest is just the "get to boss" part (equivalent to Raisu Palace, Gate of Madness, or Destruction's Depths) and not really that hard either...

The ending of Prophecies became The Return to Tyria Eye of the North (Gwen)it is when we Tyrians came home.
