And so my days of Destiny are becoming shorter.

I already explained how disappointing the game is, so I'm not going to reiterate myself. But now, I am not playing Destiny because I am having fun, I play it because I truly hope bungie will make it better. But so far, I don't know what is happening with the company I loved. They seem to have lost their creative direction. Very poor decisions were made and there was a lack of clear communication during the players and the company. It's hard to see such a jarring shift between halo's epicness and Destiny's mediocrity. I have not beaten the raid yet, I almost did. But even if I did, what's the point? To get better armor? For what, crucible, where kills depend on lag rather than equipment and skill? And from what I keep hearing, the story was originally going to be much much different....much cooler. But that was cut because it was too good. What happened to you guys? I mean...you have to be asking yourselves "what the -blam!- have we done with this game...." right? Or do you only care about squeezing as many pennies out of us as you can at the cost of producing quality games? I can't do it anymore. I can't handle the deception, the misleading promises, the nerfed content...Destiny feels like a free-to-play game. It's incomplete....until we purchased the dlc. If you cared about giving the players what they deserve, you would make ALL of that DLC free. No this is not satire, it is not a troll. We deserve the rest of the game. If you truly love your community, you would twist activision's arms until they broke and let you give us our game. You would also beg Marty and Joe Staten to return and fire the asshole who came up with the grimoire system. Hire more writers, perhaps some of us in the community could take over. I'm being serious, There are those of us who are brimming with ideas for story direction. I don't know what sort of drama is happening at Bungie studios, but get your shit together. I will continue to be a loyal bungie fan.....But Destiny is losing me. I am at the point where I often ask myself "why am I playing this?!?" The next step is to set it aside and wait for the day you finally get your shit together. EDIT: To clarify, I am not going to be leaving the forums. I love this community. So for those of you who dislike my presence, tough.

    S'up Longface, big fan, we've talked before, but I'm going to hit you with a hard truth that I think many people with similar complaints should hear. This isn't the game for you. This game wasn't designed for you, this game isn't, and will probably never make you happy. .... .... Dust settled? K. This is, straightfoward, an MMO. It always has been. Granted it is a new type of MMO, but it is one none the less. Now yes, it is unfair Bungie repeatedly said "this isn't an mmo" but, anyone who played the alpha, beta, or followed development at all, knew, this was an mmo. Which means : - people who play in groups will have tons of fun, for a very long time, despite the lack of content. Because the raids/multiplayer/pve to pvp systems were set up brilliantly. - People who love grinding (most mmo players) will love this game for a very long time, because repetitive content doesn't bother them - A majority of the people still playing this game don't feel like you do. They were not expecting a start/middle/end story, they weren't expecting a plethora of content on launch. So I'm sorry, but this game probably just isn't for you. Now you are still playing it, thats just a sign of how great the mechanics and fundementals of this game are. But you're also a minor celebrity on the forums...and that's probably contributing to why you're still here. Maybe you are the type of player who actually likes MMOs and jsut wasn't expecting this to be one, and will come around to it. But based on your posts...i don't think so. I also see you haven't completed the Raid, which is far and away the best part of this game. Now i have much love for you, and your posts, but if you are HONESTLY asking yourself, "why do i play this game?" then you should be equally honest when you answer...."because this game wasn't made for me..." And you cannot blame Bungie for that. They set out to make a game that they would expand over 10 years (coughcough MMO coughcough) and they joined up with a company that has Massive experience doing this (activision owns blizzard). Just like I do not blame EA for making Madden games and me not enjoying them, and I wouldn't expect a Madden player to enjoy World of Warcraft (not saying they can't just saying they're two massively different styles of games).
