Great survey. This game IS supposed to be a PvE game and started out that way. Bungo elevated PvP years ago in their grand scheme to generate money by means to eleviate themselves from having to distribute massive expansions or sequels. Just a little competitive side show to keep free-publicity streamers and consumers happy in between little downloadable content. I think The Dark Below was when they first really started pushing the crucible in. Coincidentally, that was the last massive expansion they had as well I believe. PvP is here to stay, as well as Bungo's money generating scheme of "Seasons". Which happens to harshly neglect either PvE or PvP each and every time. They won't commit to being a PvE game anymore because they will piss off the money makin streamers and they won't commit to PvP too much because they will lose everyday players. It's a mess. Sadly, that's why after the yearly pass is up for me, I'm done. Playing a video game that I love shouldn't be this frustrating lol. After allll these years they keep fumbling the ball.

The Dark below was literally the first expansion, not the last. It was also one of the smallest lol.

I'm sorry, you're correct. I meant The Taken King. It's hard thinking that far back.

Dark below was not a massive expansion, also the last big expansion was forsaken

PvP has [b]ALWAYS[/b] been in the game. It wasn't a late addition. It's an important factor into the foundation and game. I never understood why people say this wild ass bullshit that "Destiny isn't a PvP game...it got added in"....or any other [b]buuuuuuuuuulshit[/b] like that. Literally.....the [b]beta[/b] had an IB event in it. It's been a PvP/PvE game from day muthafoooooooookn 1. [spoiler]and IT'S NEVER BEEN nor WILL IT EVER.....be a Looter Shooter...[/spoiler]

Yes Crucible has been here from the start. You should read what I said before you go shotgun ape, buddy. I said "elevated". As in they put way more emphasis on it and started pushing players into that arena for more content to balance the lack of PvE content. Destiny DID start and was intended as a PvE game. Period. They eventually adapted to reach the e-games demographic and couldn't let go of that cash cow.
