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]

15 RepliesGrinding is not the issue and has never been the issue in either D1 or D2. It's Bungie that can't seem to grasp what a happy medium means and they never have. I'm am lost on why they haven't even figured this out and it's going on 4 years later. D1 Y1 RNG was brutal so naturally gamers complained about not getting certain loot even though Bungie stated in different words when D1 vanilla released... [quote]Gamers will not acquire all the rewards in the game[/quote] Reason being? D1 base game and the 2 expansions were not set up for gamers to (acquire everything) in the game. Gamers were not meant to get "everything", but what Bungie said gamers didn't care and blew it off anyways because they wanted what they wanted and they wanted it Now! Much like how gamers are today in D2. So here come little ole Bungie making everything easily accessible after H.O.W thinking going the extreme opposite would solve their problem. No, it create a bigger problem for them now causing gamers to blow through what little content they offered knowing Bungie could not keep up with the supply and demand sorta speak. Much like D2. Now gamers are complaining there isn't enough content but D2 base game and the 2 expansion are far worse off then D1 base game and the 2 expansions ever were. Mainly do to the major lack of incentive and creating a game based around useless cosmetic that do absolutely Nothing for D2. Gamers went on complaining about loot drop rates etc... that the game got even worse as far as it becoming one big hand out. 3oC was introduced and made thing even worse... Then ROI dropped and you could literally blow right through Everything except for a couple exotic quest but the loot from other event and the raids drop like candy. I actually had to stop playing D1 this last week because how stupidly fast I was acquiring Everything in just the raids alone. So, going from the RNG that was brutal in D1 Y1 to one big hand out is what D2 has actually became when the base game released, even worse then ROI. So, here it is that gamers ask Bungie to make the game have more of a grind and better rewards to acquire and Bungie goes, okay, will give you the grind but you still have to deal with the crappy rewards. Logic at it's best when they say "they're listening" Bungie, you had Blizzard right next to you that knows what a progression system is and knows how to rewards their player base for their time spent in their game. What gives?
