Wrong kind of grind guys.
I detailed this in other posts before, but the fact is the people asking for grind never specified what kind of grind they wanted. Now we have a superficial grind that isn’t rewarding it’s just slow for no reason. And VALID sources are saying the same.

Grind is good when it’s done right. vanilla D1 was a poor example of what we should be shooting for... but it’s the constant foolish request of the salty D2 community.
Hardcores need to listen to the casuals more and the casuals need to listen to the hardcores, because the best games land somewhere in the middle, not on either extreme. Casuals want more to do, just not grinding for the same boring and weak rewards. Hardcores, even you don’t like grinding raids for the same exact thing over and over, why else would you ask for random rolls? You’re bored with end game, but instead of specifying an actual fix for the tiny loot table, you sobbed about wanting D1 back. Now we have a grind for trash items.
The grind bungie introduced from 345-max light is superficial... and when you reach the end game guess what... THERES STILL NOTHING TO DO. You’re all still complaining, and now the casuals hate the game too. Lol.
I’ve repeatedly said it, the problem with destiny has NEVER been a need for more arbitrary grind, it’s ALWAYS been a [i][b]lack of content. [/b][/i].
[b][i][u] Stop asking for grind, and demand more CONTENT. [/u][/i][/b]

1 ReplyI think the problem was them actually trying to reach the middle ground that the game never truly feels like it's trying to be something. I agree the game lacks content, but the fundamental lack of content also comes from the lack of grind. As much as I absolutely hate to say it, grind is necessary for games like this. If the continued to make the game a participation medal type of game, then nothing feels rewarding, but if they try to go the way of increasing the difficulty without improving the loot...the game can and will show problems. Content is something in the eye of the beholder (I think I used that right?) Whether it's grinding for things most people can't or won't get, putting the most hours into sparrow racing to be the best...anything can be considered content and it's incredibly difficult to please everyone because of it. I like a lot what bungie is doing with patches now where they fix or improve something, because even if it's not like...a new raid, it gives me something different to play around with than before. In an effort to shorten this because I'm pretty boring, I will say one last thing: Bungie has found out what they need to do and they know how to do it, but the question is if will they or will it be enough? Thanks for reading.
