It does not matter how much you do to improve anything or how great that expansion ends up being. Most of your player base left will leave and most will not come back. Resetting power will be the singular most devastating thing you could do in December.

I’m still undecided. Seeing as I already bought renegades, I’m gonna play it. As for the power grind? I’m almost 450, and I’ve gotten there almost exclusively playing crucible. Every now and then I’ll do a pinnacle op to get a new weapon. I think I can count the number of times I’ve ran Caldera on both hands. I’m not looking forward to a power reset, obviously, but if they do it, I’m still gonna play crucible. Maybe I get renegade tier 5 gear eventually, maybe I don’t. F it. I can’t think of a single thing they could do to make me engage with the portal. They don’t even open matchmaking for the exotic missions, which should be a no-brainer. If I can solo these, just add people to the fireteam. Even then, I don’t wanna run the same mission over and over and over and over. So I’ll be sticking around, but the portal ain’t it. Not even close. Not in the ballpark, not even in the zip code.
