I am a father of 2 and an operator for a plant in Texas that uses a shift work schedule, so playing destiny comes in blocks of time for me when I am able to line out other responsibilities and requirements. My last 2 faction rewards (New Monarchy) that I have acquired have been amazingly disappointing making me not even want to continue with factions beyond Vanguard. The most recent one of which I was "rewarded" with 1 ascendant energy and shard, coupled with a New Monarchy Titan mark.... I mean.... really? How do you provide an item as a reward for reputation gain that is required to gain reputation to level the faction in the first place!? And the ascendant materials are nice.... But obtainable through other means... I play to gain faction reputation to acquire FACTION SPECIFIC rewards..... Now I understand the Titan mark is technically specific to that faction but I'm not speaking about that item.... That's an astonishingly useless faction return... And a kick in the groin to me and my time that I have spent to gain these faction levels... Now I'm not a Bungie Basher or rage complainer, and I can almost always deal with broken mechanics or whatnot with faith that amazing game companies (such as bungie) will rectify this in time, but this was outrageous to me and for it to happen twice in a row....ridiculous. I'm a bungie believer and supporter and have been since "Oni." I owned Halo: Combat Evolved before the Xbox was even released, have always admired your ability to pioneer and improve on your games off of fans feedback and suggestions. You listen and always have held your gamers in a higher regard than most companies. Please hear me now...... "You owe me, and countless others, their due faction rewards!" Most sincerely yours, Don the Juan Xbox One
