New player experience sucks. Portal sucks. Revive tokens suck. Primaries suck. Endgame balance sucks.

Destiny should be handled by another studio

63

Destiny should stay the course once again.

No lie, this franchise will be better off in another studios hands. The state of the game is just 90% poor design, and 10% fan service now.

    Should be handed to a new studio and it should have happened a long time ago .Miniature exploding screebs that spawn on champ kills or emptying a room .exploding ammo boxes .flying barrier champs .shielded explosive infantry with boss mini health .champs with broken regen when using weapons for those champs, so they require ability spam to keep locked down .bullet sponge bosses in dungeons .low playercount for raid clears .revives being removed when timers up .kwtd in all endgame being a requirement not be a good player no just kwtd lol

  • Portal sucks because it overshadows the majority of the game (Director) Slowly shoving content from the director into the portal isn’t helping either. Doesn’t help either that they don’t shove FULL activities into them either, seriously a dungeon lair?

    I have been saying this for a while. What in the hell is Sony doing? It is like they are sitting in the stands rooting for the Raiders when they are getting blown out 41 to nothing. Good on Bungie I guess, they ripped Sony off.

  • I like portal. But i don’t like too much modifiers and limited revives like ultimate level. It should stay on grandmaster is better for all of us. Ultimate took much fun away. Other hand about tier weapons, I like it very much cuz you can get three different kind perks on 3rd and 4th columns on 5 tier weapons. You can’t be so picky like old ways from adapt weapon and other weapons. It limits 1 or 2 randoms perks on columns.

  • What game studio, just sitting around playing tiddlywinks waiting for a decade-old franchise to be handed to them with the order of "FIX IT!!!!" do you see taking the reins? Keep in mind, even if there is such a studio, nothing you want to happen is going to overnight. Of course, this is all based on the assumption that Sony won't just release whatever content is ready then shut down any long-term support for the game while moving remaining resources to other projects.

      I dont know what is going on internally at bungie but my guess is that the game generally has all the creativity it needs to be the game we all want it to be but it is directed by people who toe the corporate line and hold it back. Decisions are probably way more "political" than based on a vision for a game that people will enjoy. Like lets be honest, this game going full live service and pulling the portal straight out of the fortnite UI is a decision that any creative mind at this studio would not stand for. The people that used to steer the destiny helm like luke smith and staten would never sign off on this. I dont know whos handling agenda setting, whether its sony or bungie or the game directors or what, but luke smith getting fired pretty much is the epitome of this game going from something created and directed by people that love games to something that feels like its just gone completely corporate. You can tell the creative bones still exist - look at the long leash the raid and dungeon team gets. But thats really the only place where destiny still feels like destiny. So to answer your question I think destiny needs that bungie creativity and sense of imagination that other studios dont offer, so no I dont think it should be sold. But i get the vibe that the people who actually make the game great arent involved in decisions. Bungie really created this image of themselves in halo and destiny that they were gamers first and foremost and wanted to make something that they would enjoy and intended to play. It doesnt feel like they make the games for themselves anymore.

    • point 1 agree, point 2 doesn't suck still need works, point 3 maybe but that the difficulty of endgame content aka gm and ultimate, point 4 agree, point 5 sni,some ability/exotics need for sure massive buffs, but end game content is not even close to how hard it was in the past thanks to how broken builds are atm
