The Nether and Rushdown Feedback from a player thats been here since the beginning

This comment is to the Devs of Destiny. I'll start buy saying that I've been playing Destiny since the beta of the first game in 2014. I was there, countless nights, killing Crota to get my Gjallarhorn. I've completed most of the content in Destiny 1 and 2 with the exception of the newer raids. I accepted your decision over time to remove outdated content from the game. You removed countless number of weapons from my inventory that I earned along the way, removed strikes from the playlist, and removed other content from the game, only for you guys to return it later on. First it was the Ice Breaker, then the Necrochasm, and I even repurchased my Gjallarhorn back for $30. I still kept playing. Its been over 10 years now. Two very long games. These games were fun because there was no other games out there that could come close to the looter-shooter co-op experience that this game offers. After The Final Shape I was worried how Destiny 2 was going to continue. Then I saw seasonal content, I completed the first Episode and was like "alright cool, new content and I don't have to buy DLC to get it." Then Episode 2 came out. I thought "awesome a whole new area to explore." Then I played the new activity. This is the first time I've been so frustrated by the direction of the game and my first ever post on these forums. I am very disappointed in the new content, specifically The Nether and Rushdown. The Nether has to be the most aggravating and frustrating experience that I've ever played in this game. It's not fun, even with other people in matchmaking. You guys turned this game into some sort of weird Destiny Rogue-lite experience and it is trash. The tormentor is the worst experience, almost impossible to beat solo without dying multiple times, no way to heal, flat and unhelpful "power-ups," the whole fight is awful. Today I log in and think, I'm gonna give it another go and I see a new strike called "RushDown." I was like "great, I love the Strikes." Only to be met with a almost Nightfall experience, locked in a room, being shot from every angle, and met with a ridiculous amount of de-buffs. I just have to ask, is your goal to make this game so frustratingly difficult to make people not want to play? Is the goal to weed out casual players that do not have the ability or time to own the best gear? Do you only want the best of the best to enjoy your game? Because if that is the goal then you have succeeded. I do not even want to log in, the game is just not fun anymore. I am not mad, I am just disappointed.

    the barrow smg is trash . and the quest for it is way over cooked and bugged. l even have the hatchling perk,but the quest for the intrinsics is bugged out and won't launch the final part lol underwhelming to say the least. only thing that would make it ok is the artifact mod that by the way isn't even working yet. but if you had the mod there is way better auto rifles that are strand that it would work better with. big let down and the other perks for it, that aren't out yet are not anything that's going to help much , its just another smg. and a lot of grind for another useless smg.they nerfed the best smg and bring this trash in.cool another waste of time for a mid gun.
