Just a survey for devs to see what they should be focused on.
Edit: I've been reading almost all the posts to my poll, and really am enjoying the engaging argument. Yes, I realize the forum has a bias towards PvE. Not much I can do about that. It is what it is.
What I am pleased to see is the COMMENTS seem to be relatively equal in PvP vs PvE...and that was my hope.
Is balance in PvP hurting PvE? Should D2 PvE be a deeper RPG experience? What other games handle this marriage of PvP and PvE well, and how are they able to do that? Is PvP being held back by lack of engaging content?
While most will blame one side for the other's demise, the long and short of it is that Destiny 2 is HUGELY popular...and has been all the while with a marriage of both PvP and PvE...even creating a new genre of game that combines then both, with Gambit.
What I feel Bungie needs to do is continue engaging all three sections of the game equally. Seasons should simply rotate the focus...so each get a large content drop when it's their turn.
As far as balancing the game, they should stop trying so hard. Balancing doesn't mean make EVERYTHING the same. It means making everything have POTENTIAL...if you use the right combination of mods, perks and play styles.
I just don't know if Bungie is slowly killing off PvP to get people to engage with their next IP or are they just struggling to get the right people to fix D2. What I do know, however, is the struggle is real!

Destiny PvE just isn’t good or replayable enough. There are only so many times you can do that one raid or strike again. If PvP was to go, they’d have to make the PvE (at least in yearly expansions) much much better. More enemies. New enemy races. A much better story. Varied mission design. Difficulty that isn’t just damage sponges or teleporting. I doubt they would ever remove PvP though. Their intentions for having it are perfectly stated in the state of Destiny for this year. Just a shame we see basically nothing at all in terms of updates. PVP’s pinnacle was D2Y2. Trials has always encouraged a boring and extremely passive style of play. Would prefer if it’s rewards were available in another game mode type.
