You Know What Bungie...

Thanks for making the Explorer mode option, I just soloed my first dungeon, I'm very antisocial, so asking for help isn't an option, but you made that irrelevant with this mode. I appreciate it. Good job.

    It feels like something that should be fundamental to raid and dungeon content. Having something like this for salvations edge with tooltips and no wipe timer might have saved it

      I understand fully😂. I am exactly the same way. People just frustrate me and get in the way constantly. I feel everything below raids in the game should have a reasonable solo mode. Less loot is fine by me, so long as the same opportunities (holofoils and the like) are there. It shouldn't just be for triumph chasers and the most hardcore. Its an MMO style game. They have no choice but to enable this in a reasonably common practice, because the game requires large numbers to survive and thrive. How do you keep those numbers? Provide most content to be playable solo or matchmade by the average person.

    • I used to run and farm dungeons in groups all the time, also raided quite a bit. Ever since their "bring challenge back to destiny" trash agenda, i completely lost interest in endgame. The way they introduced difficulty just isnt fun at all and also made it so all the chill and fun to be around players stopped playing and only neckbeard build craft gremlins who arent fun to be around are left. This chill mode brought back some fun for me personally because i do not want to engage with the toxic community thats left playing this game anymore for endgame. I would appreciate solo explorer mode for raids and all the other dungeons.

      Easily the best addition to the game since I returned last year. Kind of wish they would have added the hints to the normal mode too though - so we could unlock the triumphs and whatnot easier solo. Woudl still have to fight at the normal level but wouldnt have to run around looking for switches/mechanics etc at the same time. They should do this for everything from now on.

      • Yea, explorer mode is toned down enemies and helps you learn mechanics. I enjoyed it a lot!!

      • Yes, same OP! Congrats! I did my first one too. Been playing since the beginning of D1. I'm a solo player, I like to relax in the evening and just play by myself. I personally am not antisocial, but video games Id rather play by myself. If you want to play long missions, by yourself, try The Sniper Elite franchise!! They have multiplayer too, but the campaign and DLC's are great for single players. I take my time and find everything, so I have upwards of 4 hours on a single mission on hard mode..

      • Or just make mechanics no mic required in all activitys. And just increase ad strength like in GM's a raid at GM level with ads that 2 tap and limited revives would be more fun .

      • I agree. Explorer mode is a great way to introduce Dungeons to the single player folks. It should give them enough confidence to learn the mechanics enough to feel comfortable joining an LFG group. Especially those ones who say KWTD!!!

      • Explorer Mode has been Bungie's biggest win since The Final Shape dropped which is... I mean, it'd have been a big win nonetheless, but the year since has not been fantastic...

      • Baby steps, homie. Pretty soon you’ll be hosting master raid and Conqueror title carries. Congratulations. Explorer mode is the greatest thing to come to Destiny 2’s endgame since the changes to contest mode content releases.

      • Take a crack at lfg dungeons. You don't really need a mic for any of them. So long as everyone knows what to do, you barely need any communication with teammates at all. The only ones being sundered and vespers. All the dungeons before you could definitely do with 0 communication.

      • I also wish that explore mode was more available in the future. There is a comfort in learning without pressures or anxieties of needing to KWTD.

      • Congrats on your clear. Question though, why play a multiplayer game if you don’t want to be social ? There are so many amazing single player games out there
