This game does not require skill whatsoever....all the sweats who think they are god are the failest people in gaming

Adding [b]meta[/b] and [b]4th wall[/b] breaking elements to the narrative are a big mistake. We didn't need darkness powers at all, there is still so much to be explored with The [b]The Light[/b]. Mara Sov, doesn't work as space Galadriel/God-Empress of Aowken kind. I've never once bought her shtick. It feels like both she and a writer are trying to hard. Season of the Splicer, wasn't enough. The crises that forced an Alliance between the fallen and the last City should have been expansion worthy. The Golden Gun, is a poor super in play and never lived up to The lore.

1. That ultimately they are better off making a game that is fun, and reducing over all grind, while focusing more on the so called "casual" audience. And. 2. That they fundamentally don't understand what "hard core" and "casual" gaming is, most notably that they think either actually exist. They don't. They are social constructs and I don't care who that statement upsets. Bite me. There are hundreds of types of games in the industry ranging from shooters to simulators to platformers, puzzle games, button mashers the list is long and sorted... Describing "gamers" as "hard core" and "casual" attempts to enforce a binary system on a population that is very very much not binary in nature. Mostly the only people who believe that gaming culture is "binary" (casual and hard core) are the players who would describe them selves as "hard core" and the people who tend to do that also tend to try and enforce binary ideals on other things, notably things that Bungie supposedly supports diversity on. They usually do this by attempting to be the loudest or most belligerent person in the room. And.. 3. That by trying to be exclusionary and focus on "hard core" audiences Bungie has done nothing but harm them selves and their product, seeing that they seem to imagine that "casual gamers" are people who play angry birds and that their "hard core" audience are toxic *monkey fighters* that should not be trusted with dangerous equipment. Bungie put out a message about half a year ago providing resources to mental health institutions. Why did they do that? Because half their target audience are suffering from anger management issues and impulse control problems that are profound in nature. The state of Destiny's player base is awful. Truly, awful. And they deliberately cultured it to be this way.

Oh, here we go then - Community Management, so-called, care almost exclusively and exponentially more about the Streamer-YouTuber Promoters issues over the actual regular Community. - Bungie cares more about deals with corporations, Stadia, Epic Games, Sony, than it does about making the game in the interests of the players. - Instant OHK weapons shouldn't be in PvP. - Raids shouldn't disproportionately hog resources that they do. - D2 crutches on nostalgia. - Crucible is predominantly a cheese-driven party game. - Crucible will never change on that. - Warlock has fared worst, by a significant proportion, from 3.0 Light reworks. - Titan has been left to play second fiddle to Hunter. - Hunter has been substantially improved in PvE but essentially spoiled-rotten in PvP. - Bungie double-dips in the pockets of paid-up 'subscribers', treating them like F2P. - P2W is alive and well in Destiny 2 and drives it's marketing. - Soloplaying is something deliberately penalized just to rake in friend-referrals. - Class design was conspicuously juvenile and cartoonish and we're stuck with it. - Sound design is an unsung hero. - Emblems and Titles aren't worth the time and effort. - Gambit is one of the better game ideas, at least in principle, yet is the least invested in of all. - Champions have taken over PvE innovation and are little more than company loadout restrictions in enemy form. - GMs are glorified strikes. Might add more, but would be here all day 😜

Sparrow Racing was fun and is not a time waster for Bungie. They should bring it back. Unlike almost everything else in this game, it was lighthearted and chill. Plus it gave us cool sparrows and shaders. We don't need a ton of maps. Just bring all the ones from D1 back and maybe give us 1 or 2 new ones. Bungie could sell lots of racing themed items in the Eververse store too. BRING SPARROW RACING BACK

There should be a season dedicated to Shaxx and the Crucible like there was for Drifter and Gambit.

They should only nerf utterly broken stuff in PvE, and should split the sandboxes so they can balance pvp better.

Destiny is supposed to be a powertrip game and Bungie keeps preventing that by nerfing things like ability damage and cooldown time

Crow is still a massive tool and I'd happily kill him.

Streamers accelerated the decline of gaming. Streamer business model (which really is free marketing for a game) incentivizes devs to not make a fun, interesting game. Instead is better for them to make a super addictive, monotonous, hardcore grind of a game so Streamers have an easier job "creating content", which in return is free marketing. "Super OP new Exotic, must have" "Watch me drop a 50 KD with these broken exotic, get it now" "How to grind the new dungeon effectively" "New raid exotic is brokeN AF" Etc... It's not about gaming and having fun anymore.

Weapon sunsetting was good for the game, both from a content balance and loot chase perspective, and the "soft" sunsetting from Origin Traits doesn't go far enough.

Curse of Osiris was peak destiny.
