Bungie is intentionally screwing with us to prolong our play time.

^Above video is extra support for what I'm about to say. They are screwing with us through Xur and many other parts of the game. They're not concerned if we're having fun or not, as long as they get hours from us by playing their game. Bungie (probably Activi$ion) specifically made raid helmets only obtainable on hard to prevent too many players from hitting 30. Why? Because most of us would quit the game after hitting 30 because there's literally nothing left to do. They changed the fundamentals of the Vault of Glass raid to make it harder for us to complete. No I'm not talking about pushing Atheon off, that was a needed patch, but the part where you could choose who gets in the portal. They specifically stated that they don't put match-making in the raid because you needed excellent teamwork. Well guess what? That was one of the only parts that required coordination and teamwork among the members. That was the only reason why it made sense to be premade, so you could choose specific classes to go in and choose who stays out. Hunters and warlocks would go in while Titans dealt with supplicants.Contradictory much? And now they are messing with us through Xur. Doesn't it seem fishy that as of recently (right before the DLC) for the MAJORITY of the weeks Xur isn't selling helmets? Why? Because most of us only need helmets to hit 30 because RNG screws us over in the Hard VOG. Now for the last 2 weeks Heavy Ammo isn't being sold. Why? To make sure we spend more time in this game and farm glimmer. They've broken this down to a science and are just manipulating us into playing the game more and it's hurting Destiny as a game when they have to get rid of some aspects of the game or change it up just to suit their need to say "Oh the average Destiny player spends 3 hours each day" or some BS like that. It's 3 hours of monotonous grinding and driving from cave to cave, not real, genuine gameplay that you would expect from other games. Respond with your thoughts. 12/4/14 EDIT: Yeah. That just happened. Normally I wouldn't say I told you so, but I told you so.

    • That's kind of what Bungie wants. You guys whine that there isn't enough play time. But now you're saying there's too much. You guys say there is no story, but yet there's Grimoire. You people talk about how guns suck because they can kill you, but you would use those guns anyways. Then those guns get nerfed and you cry about it. Come on people. Get your act together.

DESTINY The guy in the vid is talking about why we shouldn't play and why we should not buy DLC... And his commentary is over a Destiny gameplay... L O L I want to say a helllll of a lot more buttt I'm too lazy so have fun talking shit and making videos about a game you probably have invested lots of time into teehee

              Oh man.. I'm almost done with work. Now I'm going to go home, eat dinner and then be forcibly strapped to a chair with the Bungie logo on it. Then they'll watch and laugh as I'm forced to play hours of Destiny.. it will be horrible. sigh..

              Honestly, I don't know about them trying to artificially lengthen my play time. I want to play. But I don't want to play frustrated. Seriously, the barriers they're putting up will only make people leave. We have a community of fans who love the game and play the game even with all its issues. If these stupid barriers to slow us down were gone, I bet we would STILL play the game because it would be more enjoyable. I just don't get companies sometimes.

                • I call it artificial content. There's other was to redo current content to make players wanna go through it again and this isn't the way to do it IMHO.

                • In MMO type games, you level your Avatar to be able to get better items. When an expansion comes out, you level yourself up(using time and materials), you raid(using time and materials, and 20-30 people) to get the item you want and then you simply destroy the old item. Here you are given an option to upgrade an item you already have, rather than destroy it. You grind to get the item to where it is(originally), and again to get it back up on the new item. It's the same as going from level 50 to level 60, and then getting level 60 items. You had to work to get those level 50 items, and now you have to work to get those level 60 items. In Destiny it's not so drastic. You don't have to go out and "Get" new items, or grind new levels to get it...you already have it. You just need to put in a little time to upgrade it to the standard of the new weapons of the expansion....and you don't even have to do that if you don't want to.
