[quote]Title Edit: I understand that Bungie has put a large amount of their team on D3, something which I honestly believe to be a smart idea. However, they need to put a bit more effort into D2 right now as it is their current game. If people didn’t enjoy D2 how do you think they’d feel about D3? With this in mind, D2 needs a bit more support. But... if they were to keep working on D3 I wouldn’t have a problem. With all the leaks I’ve heard, it’ll probably be pretty dope. Stay fresh dumb mfssss[/quote] That's a bit better. And if we're being honest, as things were and with the current issues, I absolutely will not hand over my $$$ sight unseen for a destiny 3. I got burned too hard on preordering Destiny 2.

Lol... comments are entertaining. None of you crybabies will ever be pleased no matter what happens in Destiny.

Giant game spaces with hardly anything to do there. "New" armour that is just recycling with a new sticker. Impossible bounties.

Arrogant consumerism at its finest.

I mean, it's pretty funny for people to judge how hard a team is working when they literally have NO idea what goes on at Bungie.

Yeah. This season thing doesn't work like it does in games like fortnite.

From what I’ve seen Bungie is very passionate about their work

To fix the invitation bug? Yeah they aren't

I don't believe their employees should "crunch" anymore than what is completely necessary. I'm sure they are trying their hardest and I would question if you ever have.

I think they're hardly trying.

Harsh thread. I'm very critical of a lot of D2...there is a lot to be critical of. 18 months in and it isn't at D1 standards, let alone the improvement that is expected from a sequel. But I do think Bungie work very hard, in what is at times a very thankless industry, and they are doing their very best. It's more the case that their best probably isn't enough (hard work doesn't tell as much as passionate work) and they have simply bitten off more than they can chew trying to realise a game series that was conceived in its entirety by staff no longer at Bungie.

Its crazy how when bungie put a whole bunch of people on d2 when d1 was still out then got to d2 lack luster with ssdd

I'm going to bet they're pushing to get a new version out ASAP now that they are no longer under Activision and they are completely reinventing things from the looks of who they let go. They have Opulence more or less wrapped up and don't need them anymore for what they want to do next.

It’s just communication. We don’t know what they’re working on behind the scenes. We got a small little update on what’s going on everything Thursday and that’s about it. But it’s never anything major.

It's not that they're not trying hard enough, it's that there are enough dipshits out there who let them get away with this shitty behavior and continued to throw money at them. They're a game company with the sole intent of making money. Destiny 2 isn't making them much money at this point. They're repeating their design with year one, in a way. Everyone -blam!- about year one DLC because of how disappointing they were. Introduce Forsaken. Majority of people still ended up buying it because it promised to improve the game. And, yeah, I think it kind of did. Not as much as people claim, but whatever. Introduce Annual Pass. No longer can you purchase just one DLC, No. You have to purchase all three before even knowing what they were. Because Bungie [i]did follow up[/i] on their promise of better DLC, we optimistically (and probably foolishly) threw money at them to buy a pass for content we didn't even know about. Now, Black Armory was pretty good imo. Added some great guns, the forge mechanic is still kind of fun (or, to me, at least not mind numbingly boring). It added a raid (or mini-raid, since its not that mechanic heavy in comparison to other raids). Looking back, I'm fine with what I paid for with Black Armory. Joker's Wild? I wouldn't buy this shithole again. Gambit is still just as broken as it was before because of how easily you can destroy the primeval. It's almost necessary to stack in that game mode. Reckoning was fun for a little bit, but I honestly find Escalation Protocol to be more enjoyable since the lootpool is smaller. I know that I have a genuine chance at getting one of the EP weapons and can narrow it down based on week. Reckoning? Okay, group of weapons available against Oryx. Ends up having to run the entire thing again multiple times to get a drop. Ends up being a shitty rolled spare rations. The invitations aren't even worth it tbh. You go watch a 30 second cutscene that is pretty much meaningless if you've read the lore pages (though this could change in the future. Doubt it, though), get a powerful drop, thats it. See ya next week! Perhaps Opulence is going to be the big finale to this lackluster season. From the pacing of this season, I'm guessing that any real "conclusion" to this story is going to be in Opulence. Like this is just a little build up before that. If that's the case, I can kind of understand this shithole of a season. It doesn't excuse that, though. And if Opulence is just another letdown? Well, take something from all this and realize you shouldn't have to pay upfront for content that hasn't even been made yet.

As long as they nerf everything in the game to benefit PvP then no they are not trying

It’s obvious that they’ve abandoned D2 and just want to work on D3
