I'll probably see Destiny 2 for the last time in May.
Since I paid for the season pass I may as well play the final DLC I'll touch of D2 as it comes out fresh. Won't play D2 until then.
There's no justification for how long it'll take to rectify as design philosophy that was clearly wrong and that you still refuse to admit and apologise about. There's no need for witch-hunts in that regard, but we know that criticism has (literally) been blocked out on several occasions (referring to some of the lore retcon controversy). We know other members of the Bungie team have had(?) to pick up the slack and others haven't said anything in regards to why choices were made.
Bungie's a mess undeserving of a fresh playerbase, let alone what was a dedicated one due to trust built on the success of the Halo franchise along with the strides and the system changes in Taken King and the QoL changes post-Taken King.
And as much as I'd like Destiny 2 to do well, I'd love it to be a great game because Destiny became one of my favourite games and worlds - it doesn't deserve it, not in a pay-to-play state with dripfeed micro-transaction based content because 'content creation is too hard'. Not when they're forced to revert to D1 systems but on their own terms rather than ours (D1 crucible playlists...but they're weekly rotational rather than consistently there, Rumble...). Not when they retain so much ego as to refuse to apologise, or refuse to communicate with us in any other format than forum post or text - no livestreams so we can [i]talk[/i] to them and get a direct response.
...Destiny 2 is a waste of time to the point that I don't want to use my energy creating fan-content I would otherwise enjoy creating - because why should they deserve the niche skills/appreciation of a few when they don't appreciate the community as a whole.
See you guys in May, if there's still anyone left, I'll see how good #feedback gets around 1.1.4 patch drop and see Bungie's undoubtedly but predictable lackluster reaction to it. But I ask one final thing of you Bungie. Prove us wrong.
Fat chance of that though, eh?

1 ReplyThere will always be people even when there appears to be none. CoO didn't look interesting nor did what Bungie said about the stuff in the DLC were going to be interesting. Players come back when there is something to do, and May will most likely bring players back since some of those players would like to play what they already paid for. Since little is known about the DLC, it's Bungie's job to impress us and tell what to expect in this DLC unlike the zero hype they built up for CoO. I am skeptical about the DLC and I'm afraid it might be as disappointing as CoO, but I'll hold judgement until I know what to expect. D2's in a seriously rough spot right now, and with all of those lies and the "folklore" uproar, it has not helped D2 at all. Sometimes, I wonder if D2 would have been better if it was delayed to Fall of this year, but I think it would have only delayed the inevitable disappointment.
