I don’t think you’re entirely accurate there. Things are looking on the bright-side for the franchise rn. Not that the game has a small player base, it does not. But just because they don’t have 30 million active players like before, makes it a bad a game. People tend to like easy games and destiny is about to get a lot more hardcore than it is rn, at least on the endgame side. That tends to scare off lots of casuals that can’t get the sweetest juice out of the game which is the endgame activities. I’m seeing many of my friends that abandoned the franchise 8 months ago and even a year back, coming back for shadowkeep. I guess it’s back to the old famous saying “let’s wait and see”. Bungie certainly does a great job hyping players all the way to the limit of hype levels. They’ve always landed on their feet so why would they fail this time.

Matter of opinion mate Adding battle passes and giving less actual content for more money while the content we do get is reskinned doesn’t seem like the franchise is heading the right direction Add eververse getting new gear while the other vendors get no update, plus the alienating of more and more players. I mean I’m sure the direction is fine for a minority of people but as a business you should be aiming to add customers to your current “hardcore” ones, not reduce potential income And this is just my opinion but if you keep reducing how many customers you have, then eventually your business will fail

Edited by Mike: 9/20/2019 1:59:19 AMThen it’s been failing since D1, but somehow for 5 years they’ve managed to entangled the pockets of 2 million more or less hardcore/casual fans that still pay up when new or reskinned content drops. Trust me, these guys got $500 million from Activision 5 years ago, and then 100 million from netease and that’s not counting other ongoing undisclosed ventures, business wise they’re fine. I’m assuming you haven’t watched the new vidoc but there’s a part that shows a planning blackboard and the scheduled agenda for destiny projects extends to 2024(which may well be a hype tactic, but what if it isn’t). Maybe by that year we can discuss how bad it all went but they’re not closing shop anytime soon. Look if they survived the garbage show that was D2 vanilla they can survive anything.

I’ve seen it and the lies didn’t surprise me Guess we’ll agree to disagree about the success of this

We can’t agree or disagree on the success yet, we can just comment on the matter until it drops. But for someone that thinks so low of the company and expects nothing good from the game you sure are quite the active destiny player lol. Cheers

I was a huge fan and destiny had a big impact on my life. I’ve spent close to $1000 since I started playing. At this point it’s sad to see the way it’s going Going from 14 million down to less than 1 million is nothing close to success though But we shall see how many come back in a couple weeks and stick around
