So I'm lvl 31 with my Warlock and... I felt that I wasted my time. Now with a secondary character I jumped from lvl 20 to 27 in a few days just by grinding Vanguard Gear in the Tower, at this rate I'll be skipping VoG entirely, specially when its gear is WORST than what it's in the Tower. What is the point? I already played all the content within The Dark Below expansion and the only decent part was the raid. A raid shorter and smaller than VoG, no Labyrinths to ease the pace, not ingenious design like the portals. And PLEASE In Crota's End There should exist a drop when killing the Witch leader, seriously (specially when materials for new gear is scarce as f**). 7/10 The 2 new Strike Missions (I'm a playstation player) are pretty lame in design. The one with the Witch goes through the same Earth areas we know just to add 3 new corridors that ends into a very small area where you have 2 small doors to shoot the annoying Witch that won't move from the platform. There is no room to move there, no strategy just shoot whenever you can an retreat constantly. The Undying Mind is the worst offender, exclusive content! (Xbox players, you're not missing ANYTHING) We start in a familiar area (The Black Garden), but from there is just one big corridor filled with Minotaurs over and over until we meet a Clone of the NEXUS with an extra Shield. No new strategy, no interesting level design, nothing. Just run and shoot. I won't even touch on the story, because there is none. So, what now. I'm loosing interest by the hour. I may stop playing now and go back when the NEXT expansion let me buy better gear in the tower than what Crota's end may drop right now. See what you did there? You just planted a seed in my mind that I've wasted my time. I had fun with VoG don't get me wrong, but without playing people are still progressing to Crota's end directly making it a pointless activity and I feel you'll do the same with Crota's End next time. And if you want to make people feel comfortable with their effort, you should reward them (And not forcing them to lvl up their weapons again) and not punish them. Also, Glimmer economy sucks right now. If I play all day doing bounties and I just make 2k glimmer as much, then there is something wrong when Xur is asking for 9k to upgrade anything. 1k for heavy ammo? I'm not buying that no more. And I'm not gonna play the first missions of Mars for farming glimmer anymore, because that is the moment when I'm just not having fun no more. Things need to change drastically, your design practices and philosophy needs to change. I have a clan with at least 20 active players so I don't have a problem playing the raids and playing a lot. But for those who want to have fun, you NEED to add Raid matchmaking, seriously, you need to stop thinking your philosophy is correct, you need to be a player again and not so much the king of the hill. Take care. Leo
