Bungie, I am genuinely curious now... Are you trying to kill your game?

TLDR[spoiler]Bungies current content seems to be lacking, and they just seem to be removing any and all motivation to continue playing once you reach endgame content. Trials is supposedly rife with cheaters, Iron Banner no longer has rank packages, the raid is super easy, and there's only one. Why? Why Bungie?[/spoiler] Edit 1: before you say i should play another game, i already am. Im playing skyrim. So stop recommending i play a different game. [spoiler]and anyways, thats kinda the point of thsi post anyways. It feels like bungie is pushing players who have made it to the end away from destiny, thus trying to kill their game. A game should be replayable, but it seems like with RoI, they dont want destiny to be replayable. They want a "hit it and quit it" kinda game.[/spoiler] Edit 2: also, drops mean nothing when nearly everything you own (that you use) is 400, and i highly doubt im the only person with nearly only 400 gear. Dear Bungie, I have been around since the beginning, so i have seen pretty much everything you have thrown our way. I have seen the rise and fall of weapons and subclasses. I have seen gods slain by LAN cables, or more interestingly enough, merely walk off the edge and take their own life because of their phobia of grenades. I experienced the agony of working your way up to a boss in the Prison, and spend several hours struggling to slay said boss, only to have to forfeit all progress and return to orbit due to real life obligations and no checkpoints. I witnessed the beginning of a divide in your community with the introduction of Trials, and the gally or gtfo posts. But that was fine. Then came year two. And with year two came a new subclass, a new raid, new (and a much more improved) story. A lot of good came with year two. Not everything good though. Elemental primaries were taken away from us for some reason, the nightfall flame and bonus was removed as well for no good reason. Year one content that we struggled to achieve was left behind and only select exotics slowly trickled their way back into our possession. Eververse was introduced with the promise that it would fund future live events to be free. But once again, that was fine. The good outweighed the bad, so overall it was a positive year. But now, year three. I know we have only just begun, but Bungie.... What the hell? One of your employees has publicly stated that the lighthouse was always only supposed to be accessible by the best of the best. So that just cut into your community even more. And then you have the cheaters making it so only the best of the best at booting other players, or those who lag so hard they become gods, make it to the lighthouse, and when presented with proof, you do nothing except ban those that bring it to your attention. "Name and shame". And your final expansion, lets be honest, is a little lackluster.... Five story missions and a laughably easy raid. But hey, its all fun and good content. Its just that you had a year, and this is what you have to show for it...? But hey, you advertised those ornaments. Those things look friggen sweet!! What? One a week? Prone to getting duplicates? If i want more, i need to spend even more cash? But but but.... But why?! But hey, at least there is the live events that are being funded by eververse to look forward to right? Right? Wait, whats that? Almost all of the content is locked behind a paywall? But... But i thought it was supposed to be free.... How is it that all of the proceeds accumulated during ttk lead to a worse Festival of the Lost than last year...? Alright. Well, all hope isnt lost. Iron Banner is really fun. Loot galore since Rise of Iron. You get loot from the bounties, and loot from ranking up. Loot EVERYWHE- Wait, what's this? No more loot from ranking up? Then.... Then whats the point in playing after you beat the bounties? What? There is none? Oh. Okay. So, just to recap. Year two, you gave us a few good story missions, and a fun but really easy raid. Thats good. But then you have your most toxic PvP gamemode run by cheaters and red bar deities. You gave us about three hours of content with FotL, and expected it to last two weeks. And Iron banner lasts however long it takes you to complete the bounties before you are out of stuff to do. Im genuinely confused... Do you want us to quickly run out of things to do? Cause that seems to be the case.... I honestly just dont know anymore. Im just really confused. Year one had a lot to do. Two raids, and three prison of elder game modes, nightfall, decent trials, good iron banner. Now. Now we have this mess.... Sincerely, A VERY concerned and confused gaurdian, JoeMonkey13.

  • Seriously if we're in the last stretch of Destiny 1's lifespan they might as well give us all of our content back. I wouldn't mind grinding VoG again for a year 3 mythoclast or grinding Crotas end for a new swordbreaker. That would add some more enjoyment for the last few months before Destiny 2. Tldr: Give us all the old content back to go balls to the wall for Destinys last year

    • One of the reasons I take my time to level, Hell I havnt even raided yet except for venturing in solo to see the starts of a couple....mild curiosity. The monthly IB will keep me happy until destiny 2 or at least until Mass Effect is released anyway.

              • On the topic of trials, I've encountered cheaters once out of probably 100 matches the last 3 weekends. I'll take those odds anytime. Trials is always a lot of fun.

              • All but 1 weapon I own is 400. I still would like a the rest of my gear across 3 characters to hit 400 so that's one reason to keep playing for me (though I am 400 on all characters). Last night I finally hit level 12 gear on my warlock. Awesome! Not far off on the other 2 - another reason to carry on the grind. SRL - I missed it last year and look forward to it this Christmas. But I share your sentiment, where next? If everyone of my friends is in the same boat then it's back to private matches. We had a lot of fun when that first came out and reckon we'd go back to it when everything else is done. Think the reality is crucible with friends for a bit of fun. Not to gain anything other than to unwind. Same as lots of other games.

                  • The player's runined it. With the non-stop bitching and screaming for change. " raid is too hard! raid is too easy! Nerf this! Buff that! ". Just shut up and enjoy the game, if you don't enjoy it don't play it.

                    • You must be one of those people that always hold engrams and packages and such so when a new major update drops you can power through the game in like 5min and be max light and rush through the content....well i have news for ya for people who do this are the ones who seem to complain the most about "OMG what am i gonna do now, now that i have max 400 light on all characters...i know blame bungie" This is why you dont rush to be the first to complete EVERYTHING cause then your gonna complain about the same crap all other people complain about...i mean dude HELP OTHERS cause i know people who STILL have not completed Kings Fall and WoTm hell the other day i took a guy through Crota raid alone just me and him

                          If you are a completionist, stick around and finish everything. If you are not, move along. It's really your choice.

                          • I dont agree with everything but bungie IS killing the game......look at the halo series....PERFECT! YOU CHEAT YOU GOT BANNED FOR LIFE(for example)....... Plus bungie has a thing for taking the fun away: the broomstick sparrow, the srl event is not permanent,all the y1 weapons are rendered useless, y1 raids are useless now, the ghost bullets with hand cannons....and then last but not least.....THE NERFING THE FRIGGIN NERFFFFFFFIIIIINNNG STOP ITTTTTT!!

                            • Yeah Bungie is just -blam!-ing stupid AF. They think their game can last a long time when they have 0 content at all. I haven't even done the raid because I have no desire. Trials is now impossible (even though I've gone flawless 80 times), and Iron Banner is just control with different loot. Destiny is dead, it was dead half way through year 2. Rise of Iron was just a little breath of life for a few weeks.

                              • Everybody crying about the no packages. That's what the bounties are for. You realize you get double the rewards right? With the bounties, over the packages. You get to 5 on one character so you can buy all the shit she's selling, then just need to do the bounties on other characters.

                                • TLDR is right. It's the struggle I've had since launch because #$?& anything crucible. Rather watch grass grow and paint dry all while getting a root canal. Absolutely hate hate hate it. That only leaves so much PvE to do.

                                • This has without doubt been the best ever IB for loot. The ranking packages were nearly worthless in my opinion. I got shafted a countless number of times with those packages dropping gear lower than my light. The new system is far better. I haven't played IB anywhere near as much as I normally do and have jumped from 396 to 400 with Iron banner drops (and a quick 45 minutes of archon forge for the class item). Saying that, I'm not sure what the hell I am going to do on the game now other than the hard mode raid which I can't really be bothered with. I've reached 400 and feel like I've completed the game.

                                  • I have also taken issue with how easy the IB has become. It now takes a few hours to complete per character when it used to take a few days. I miss the level packages, IB just no longer feels like a worth -while event. At the same time, I have stopped doing the nightfall. Without the crushing experience of the possibility of getting kicked to orbit, there is just no challenge. Oh yes, and the rewards have gone to crap also.
