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!

  • Absolutely, yes. I don't get PvE mains at all. What's the point? You spend 30 minutes to an hour on a raid, nightfall, or dungeon, complete it, and then what? You can brag about the fact that you cleared it? None of the PvE content in this game is remotely hard, save a few GM's, and weapon rolls have far less meaning in PvE where most enemies die in 1-2 shots anyway. PvP actually gives me a reason to grind for guns and good armor, so I can build my character and show off my effort against other people. I'm sorry if you are living in denial, but there is a skill gap in this game, and it's fun to see all the time you've invested into good loot net you a sweet kill streak or K/D. If PvP was removed, I'd have no reason to care about loot, and no reason to get on every week. There's plenty of PvE-only games I've played throughout my life, and they always get boring within a few weeks because there's no sense of accomplishment in killing AI's.
