[quote]What a joke.[/quote] It is a joke! 40 dollars per year on empty seasonal content. LMAO!!! That’s what I call laughable. The very essence of a milking cow. LMAO!!! Wake up people. It’s been like this for over a couple years now since Activision left this game in the dumpster. If you are still here since then, you’re probably leaking money because they are milking it out of you. LMAO!!! You’re farming and they’re farming you. LMAO!!! You know what cows do when they’re being milked? …nothing. They just stand there. LMAO!!! Don’t be a cow.

Sad but true. Of my 200 plus member friends and clan lists, 3 are currently logged in at the game.

Literally everyone complains about re-skinned and re-hashed content, so Bungie gives us the Super-bowl of re-skins. Everyone complains about IB rift, that it’s not fun and way too long, so Bungie puts it in comp and makes it even longer by forcing you to get to 5 regardless if you’re up 4-0. It’s like they take one step forward and 5 steps back. Honestly it’s just comical at this point.

1. The armory is already bloated with 5 years of exotic armor. Most of which we don’t use. 2. All of which is cosmetic and none of which impact game play. 3. Would you prefer that there be NOTHING to do but holiday events between yearly expansions? Because that the only alternative to the seasonal model. 4. The game isn’t made for just you. So the activity has to meet the needs of a large number of people. 5. Yes. Because it is not a part of the season itself. What do you think your $5 (probably less, let’s be honest) you’re paying per month to play this game entitles you to??? 6. Yes. Because a vocal part of the player base asked for it back… and with the return of the Leviathan, this really shouldn’t be a surprise. See point 5. 7. Goodbye and Goodluck. This is what seasonal content has always been. A bit more of Destiny to tide us over until the next big expansion. What made you think that it would jump up one day and suddenly become something dramatically different?

Game is about to die for real. Destiny 2 is [u]effectively[/u] over.

Read somewhere that bungie is planning on changing the seasonal model up a bit in lightfall but it won't be on release it'll likely happen towards the end of lightfall closer to the final season. Either way I saw this coming from a mile away the game is stuck in a loop and its slowly dragging along. While bungie is trying to save it they'll only do so after they milk it for all its worth. Either way the armor this season is crazy and I love it and the dungeon armor looks cool too its got cowboy hats for all classes and I'm all for that so who cares. Imma get my moneys worth and get all that sweet armor this season from all sources and then quit till lightfall.

Unfortunately I have already bought this season with the Witch Queen Deluxe Edition. I am already regretting it. I would ask for a refund if there were such an option. I have been feeling increasingly disappointed with the direction this company has taken over the last few years, especially when they announced their 'sunsetting' and, later on, their 'vaulting' system. And all the rest that has come afterwards it's been a total let down. So I had very low expectations when I logged in yesterday to see what the season was about. And after I saw that it was, once again, recycled content, I logged out in disgust and stayed away. The recent trend of asking for extra $$ for new dungeons, packages like the 30th Anniversary, and part of the special event's content is infuriating, considering how little we get for the money. I am not gonna put another penny into this game. Not for dungeons, nor for any future releases/seasons/packages or whatever else they concoct to leech players. As for Eververse, since its inception in D1, I made a point NEVER to spend any money into that store. And I never did. EVER. That's how much I've despised it all these years. Bungie's current business model is paid releases with recycled/reskinned content. After you play a little with it, they take it away (vaulting or sunsetting or nerfing whatever you have grinded over innumerable hours). Basically, they keep 'vaulting' and 'un-vaulting' the same content with each 'new' season, round and round in a never-ending cycle where they keep the money flowing without having to create anything new (except for the Eververse store of course). Not to mention the 'nerfs', the 'bugs', and the PVP mess which would require an entire chapter of their own. My patience with this franchise is at an end. I feel only disgust and regret. I used to love this game and I had played it a lot over the years! I have always given Bungie the benefit of the doubt, even when they messed up and screwed their player base on many occasions. I've always believed that they would do better next time and I kept purchasing new releases and season passes. From D1 all the way until now. NOT ANYMORE. My good will is over. There comes a time when GREED is too much even for an affectionate fan such as I used to be. I feel sad. Destiny has been a great game for me. I truly loved it. But all good things come to an end. Time to move on. No more money from me, Bungie. You have screwed up for the last time. I'll come back and play every now and then, whatever is available for free. Other than that, I am done.

Yup, and quite literally the only people defending this as per usual are the bungie simps... The old excuse was the game is f2p, so they have to raise prices for dlc. But they're making WAY more than they used to, and we're getting FAR LESS both in quantity and quality. Theres no defending this.

I will say I do prefer the new battlegrounds over ketchcrash but would have preferred something actually new I can understand them reskinning the ikelos weapons because it was a pretty common request to get updated versions of the ikelos/seraph weapons for awhile, although not my preference personally. Seasons ok, nothing special and likely won't hold many peoples interest but it's about what I expected at this point (which is unfortunate that my expectations are so low its "I guess it's better than the last activity")

[quote] - Cool stuff in the micro transaction store as per usual [/quote] They want $20 for a crappy Assassin's Creed armor set. $60 if you want all three. These are no longer "micro-transactions"..... They are "macro-transactions". Bungie is milking their base for as much as they can get while putting in almost zero effort for the content to respect the players' time and investment.

When I logged in, I thought It hadn't updated. There's no change and feels exactly the same season as before. Same grindy stuff to rng chase. Afraid it's going to be a Tuesday reset drop in and do a few pinnacles. Then back to God Of War Has anyone tried The Calisto Protocol yet
