Bungie's extremely ethically concerning actions

After reading many forum posts here, I've realized that Bungie is up to some extremely nefarious stuff that should cause anyone with a modicum of ethical awareness severe unease. We must stand up to Bungie's clear and present tyranny. What tyranny, you ask? The tyranny of *forcing* players to not only play Destiny 2- but *forcing* them to do activities that some members of this community find lackluster and boring. Below, I've quoted several common complaints that we all need to take more seriously. "WAHHH. BUNGIE IS FORCING SOLO PLAYERS TO JOIN GROUPS TO DO RAIDS!" "WAHHH. BUNGIE IS FORCING ME TO GRIND FOR GEAR BECAUSE I DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING I WANTED FROM 2 NIGHTFALLS!." "WAHHH. BUNGIE IS FORCING ME TO WAIT A COUPLE MINUTES BETWEEN OPENING CHESTS" "WAHHH. BUNGIE IS FORCING ME TO SAVE MY SHADERS BECAUSE THEY'RE SINGLE-USE" "WAHHH. BUNGIE IS FORCING ME TO PLAY A NIGHTFALL/RAID THAT I FEEL IS BROKEN" Ladies and Gentlemen, Bungie is clearly using threats of force and coercion to enslave our fellow gamers. Unlike many of us, these poor wretches have absolutely no choice but to continue to play a game that they clearly don't enjoy. Unlike us, they don't have the freedom to choose a different game. Unlike us, they don't have the opportunities to only play Destiny activities that they enjoy. Unlike us, they can't simply turn their console off when their minds are broken and tired from too much grinding. No, instead they have to exist like some sort of Bangladeshi sweat-shop worker... collecting engrams, running endless strikes, and suffering what they find to be a joyless raid. As a member of the entitled majority that has the privilege of being able to choose when to put down the controller, I say we join together and fight to extend the freedoms that we take for-granted to the lesser-privileged of our community. FREE EVERYONE FROM BUNGIE'S SHACKLES OF SERVITUDE! *Shameless clan plug* https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/233098963/0/0

    So Bungie is offering a full refund to people who spent the 60+ dollars they had to buy one game this year and feel they've been lied to about this having the long term playability of Destiny 1 by Bungie's repeated promises that overwhelmingly have fallen short? I've had to deal with you guys for three years and I'm not going to anymore. I play this game because I enjoy it. A lot of people this is the one game they were able to buy this year so they had something to do with their friends. If it comes across as a garbage game that strongly indicates the company lied on what they were selling? Then Bungie knows where it's checkbook is. You don't want to hear people complaining about Destiny? Bungie's more than entitled to buy their game back from people who have an axe to grind and those people you'll never have to hear from again. "Bungie is a big corporation, they're not going to just give people's money back because they're unhappy, that would be..." Literally what is required of every other industry. The industry I work for, if I flat out lie about the product I'm selling them, then yes, I have to refund them, hell I'll probably fired or maybe even sued. And what I'm selling costs a lot more than Destiny 2. Hell there are some corporations where if they mislead their customers half as much as the gaming inustry misleads it's customers, there would be prison sentences involved. So I say again. You don't want to hear people chewing Bungie out and telling them how much the game feels like garbage and how they feel they've been lied to? Bungie knows where their checkbook is. You'll hear a lot less complaining when people who are unhappy with the product get a refund and the freedom to just go spend their money elsewhere. Until Bungie starts giving people their cash back on what they see as a purchase they were mislead into making? People have every right to tell Bungie what it can go do with it's self. Simple as that. Of course, you also have your rights to be all sarcastic.. But you also appear to have the luxury of not having to worry how much money you throw down the toilet.

    • "Nefarious" lol. I picture this tool sitting in his moms basement with Doritos crumbs on his stomach getting angry and pvp and thinking, "hmmm, how what I can I write to the community of bungie that'll get noticed." Then he wipes his Doritos off his chest and starts smashing away at the keyboard.,"I'll use the word nefarious! That'll get their attention! Bungies nefarious acts! These atrocities! How dare they! DuplicTe exotics! Single use shaders! Forcing me to make friends! Nefarious I say! Nefarious! Mom!" He yells, "make me a damn sandwich"

      • Damn, now [b]this[/b] is fanboyism. Is your tounge sore from licking all those boots, chapped lips from kissing so much arse? You typed all that nonsense just to blindly defend Bungie. You didn't even [i]try[/i] to refute the points you thought were bad. How thick can you be?

          • For those getting too sensitive over the post, he is not attempting to censor anyone. It's just satire. The post is specifically aimed at people who quite literally run to the forums to rant and receive sympathy. You all know the ones. There is at least two trending everyday. Attacking constructive criticism is not the point here. Mind you, whining is not the same thing. Honestly, I'm glad I'm not the only one irritated by it.

          • Just saying.. the fact you say we need to take all of those comments more seriously and start each off with "WAAAAAAH" should kind of tell you something. Get friends. Join a clan. That's where the meat of destiny is. That's where the meat of destiny one is. If you don't want to do that.. guided games are coming (although admittedly right now they're broken af). Or, you know, crucible.

              • Thank you sir for opening my eyes and freeing me of my symbolic shackles. If anybody needs me I'll be burning all of my shaders in the middle of the tower.... or is it the traveler.... no, the tower... I'll be in the farm. p.s. lets be honest, it all went down hill when they nerfed black hammer

              • The shader thing is actually bad though. Shaders weren't single use before, and you know how to get more... pay for it. It's a cheap money grab and they should take away the one use bit. It's one step forward and one right back. Not worse, but we haven't moved

                            • And THIS type of post, while attempting to inject humor into the forums, is exactly what is turning off a big part of the player base. Any "complaint" or suggestion is set upon by this community like a school of bloodthirsty sharks. Any suggestion of change, no matter how reasonable and wee thought out is instantly belittled and made fun of, suggesting that OP is a crybaby or worse. Very little positive dialogue can occur because it all gets lost in these types of responses. Many of the examples that you have cited are legitimate concerns; not the rankings if "crybabies" as you put it. There really is no need for this form name calling and abusive behavior.
