It's called "Season of the Drifter" because it makes the playerbase drift away

EDIT: I'm laughing at all the screaming pissbabies in the comments. "YOU JUST ARENT GOOD AT GAMBIT!!!!!!!!" And I don't care to GET good at it because it's a boring ass mode that nobody plays properly. "JUST GO PLAY OTHER GAMES!!!!!!" Why should I have to? I bought Destiny 2 because they promised it would expand on and take feedback on Destiny 1 into consideration during development and I loved Destiny 1. Why should I say "lmao okay bungie have my money for free and don't give me the game you sold to me, it's okay"? I want Destiny 2 to be the best it can be and it objectively is not. "IT TAKES TIME TO DEVELOP NEW CONTENT AND THE ANNUAL PASS WAS UNDER ACTIVISION!!!!!" And they could have released a community announcement stating that they will release what was already done under Activision because it's already been paid for but there will be a big new update that will be essentially a new expansion coming later on. Instead, with everybody watching and waiting to see what would happen, they release more Gambit and go back to radio silence as usual. You kids are junkies. You're addicted to Destiny's grind because you've already put so much time in to it that you can't bare to admit you weren't having fun, and so you're letting Bungie continue to exploit you for more cash instead of doing what sane people would do and demand to be treated like an actual customer instead of a crack whore to a pimp. Look around, the community is in uproar, even with your vote bombing any negative threads like mine, they still come out with hundreds if not thousands of up votes because the community is sick of this shit. We want things to improve, and if you want to continue being spoonfed garbage every few months, you're part of the problem. Instead of letting Bungie step all over you, imagine how much fun you'd be having if every update was a Taken King or a Rise of Iron or vanilla Forsaken. That's what Destiny 1 was, not this "annual pass" shit. And if Bungie isn't going to make it clear they intend to change for the better, they have not once given us any reason to give them the benefit of the doubt. So go ahead, keep screaming and whining at me for saying what you think deep down but are too addicted to admit it. I paid for the pass, I'll play it off and on until I feel like I did enough with it to not feel like I got completely scammed, and then if Bungie doesn't end the year on a high note I'll abandon it to the trash that deserves it. ------------------------------------------ What the actual F*ck were you thinking, Bungie? No. Seriously. What the actual F*CK??? This is it? This is your triumphant post-Activision update? This is what you have to show everybody who has ever given you the benefit of the doubt and believed it was Activision's greed that made Destiny 2 such a slogfest of pointless tasks and meandering chores as opposed to feeling like we're participating in an actual world with stuff going on in it? Gambit. Yet another re-hashed exotic from D1. And a horde mode. That you have to play gambit to access. How about instead of wasting your development time and budget on match-based modes NOBODY asked for, continuously adding more and more versions of those modes NOBODY asked for, and then forcing people who don't want to do them to play them for quests and exotics, you actually work on providing us with new zones to explore, new enemies to fight, a new threat to fight against, and then focus on the modes you ALREADY HAVE and balance them, improve them, make them BETTER so people actually don't mind playing them for quests every now and then? Forsaken was such a promising start. New big threat, new zone, new story, new enemies...and then it crashed and burned the moment you hit endgame, and instead of working on fixing that and expanding on the huge foundation you just laid for yourselves you decided "you know what would be great? If we ignored EVERYTHING we just did and made people play gambit more." What the f*ck is wrong with you people? This isn't the company that made Halo, this isn't the company that made Taken King and Rise of Iron. This is a company that doesn't know what the hell to do with itself, a company that spent too much time under Activision's thumb and ended up thinking like their executives instead of game developers. You people are an indie studio with legions of people ready to throw money at you for something, ANYTHING worth playing. The sky is the limit for you guys...and you make more gambit. Bungie, you need to make changes and you need to make them fast. From what I can tell you are fast losing the good will you garnered by leaving Activision and once that's gone you'll have nothing left. I love Destiny, but the game you currently have available to play is objectively not Destiny. It has the same name and setting, but it is not Destiny. Whatever is at the end of this "annual pass" (stop using that -blam!-ing term, you shouldn't be making "annual passes", you should be making expansions) better be incredible. It better introduce a new zone, with new enemies, an engaging story, a slew of balance changes and QoL improvements, content that builds on the foundations Forsaken left, a solid end game loop that people want to keep coming back to instead of endlessly grinding piece by piece to hit max power level only for there to be nothing to do with it, because that's not an end game. Because if not, you won't have a playerbase anymore. You'll have a few die-hard fanatics who are so brainwashed by your grind machine that they'll do anything and say anything to protect their precious addiction, a game that people won't even be able to talk about the good times without feeling a taste of bile in their mouth, and a looming bankruptcy filing. But hey...at least you got people to play more gambit, right?

  • This is basically a non-season if you ask me. There's really nothing new to do. No new raids, no new strikes and not really much content apart from the weapon quests (thorn etc). But those quests are just a bunch of chores that have you revisit places you've already seen a thousand times. ie no new real actual content. I think the player base is going to evaporate over the next couple of months. People are going to get sick and tired of the same old crap, same old loot, same old RNG, and same old Bungie that nerfs shit to hell and back for no good reason.

    Holy guacamole ... so many idiots down here. If annual pass is just endgame grind then why the f*ck does it cost 30$ ? You know what proper expansion looks like ? Blood and Wine Witcher 3. And how much did that cost ? 15$. Some may say that it only costs 10$ for 3 months each. They are basically selling gamemode for 10$ . And not even a good gamemode. So many people are saying that Bungie is a great studio, one of a kind. Nah ah. Just another cashgrab pile of trash. Go ahead, downvote me to hell. Maybe you will feel better. This is my first game from Bungie. Watched some gameplay from D1 and all I can see is that they improved graphics (a little bit). But it is the same game. I am not saying that they should make it completely different game. Maybe just add a few more gameplay mechanics. Not just Go here and shoot that. I don't want to grind for hours. Some people may like the grind. Even tho it's boring as f*ck. Maybe they could listen to feedback. For once. That would be really nice, wouldn't it ? I know that they just lost Activision support. So what ? China has them covered (for those who don't know, some company from China supported Bungie with 100 million $, don't know why) That's all I have to say, have a great day.

  • I hate to add to the general negativity, but most of these complaints are founded in basis of fact and good points. We do want new content and adventures, and new weapons that are cool. But we keep getting new ways to PvP. And that is a loose description at best. It isn't really "new" per se, it's just PvP you know, shoot at other players. Doesn't matter how you guys package the cake, it's the same cake. I pay my fee like everyone else, and I have been loyal. I keep hoping for new CONTENT, but nup, we get a whole new way to try to fight other players but it isn't all that new

  • I 1 billion percent agree with you. This is completely stupid. It is 100% unplayable unless u have a fireteam of 4 at all times and gambit prime is total trash. Like worse than regular gambit ever was. I agree dude. We need another planet or something to explore a STORY!!!

    • Yep next season is Season of the pointless, followed by Season of the Aimless. Where we'll wander aimlessly, surely letting ghost talk for us yet again, futilely hoping RNG smiles on us.

      • Yep, my whole family has taken a break from this game. That's four of us. This is the first time I have not got on to even play a new dlc in destiny. I mean why? Broken drops, nerfs, gambit....eeewww and so on on. Been having a blast in Anthem and BDO online.

        • As someone who has not bought the seasons pass....or logged into D2 for 2 months...I obviously cannot place any worth on this season or the one prior. It does worry me that so many people (clan members, friends...even some streamers and YouTube content creators) are rubbishing the annual pass and what it includes. Perhaps I made the right choice to “wait and see”. Likewise with Anthem...really wanted to preorder but did the “wait and see” tactic again. I can only say that the more people who adopt this attitude of NOT buying stuff (before waiting for proper reviews) will only encourage developers across the board to provide more substantial, more meaty, polished products into the future. Does feel like I’m in the minority though and the battle has already been lost. It’s a shame really but that’s how it is I guess.

        • I tend to agree with this somewhat. This season doesn't have a great deal of stuff to go after for someone who wants to play other stuff. Gambit Prime is.... fine, I wish gambit could have been that from the start to be honest, but here we are. Endgame that revolves around the mode.... not so great. There isn't a mid-game experience, there isn't a ton thats actually *FUN* and it has gotten to the point where it kind of feels too "chore-like" to be fun. This is coming from someone who has dropped 1300 hours into D2, with a full-time job and relationships that I try to keep afloat. I see myself playing more Warframe because I feel I can pace myself better (and theres a more defined Mid-to-endgame flow that has somewhat better pacing. PvP elements in this game just feel bad at this point, PvE elements keep getting nerfed for the sake of variety, and that sucks.... I need more power in my power fantasy game, and the dev team keeps kneecapping it. Sounds like whining but legitamately the game is way less fun than when Forsaken dropped.

                  • I would play this but theres 2 glaring issues. 1. Another season of reaching more 50 useless levels 2. More cores, less fun. I am honestly hating this season...

                  • I'm done today. I do not like Gambit, and if that's all there is for the next 3 months then there is no reason to even log in again. The last time we had a story line update was Forsaken, which was 6+ months ago. I am not re-grinding the same strikes, adventures, story missions for a another 3 months just to go up another 50 light levels and my "Rewards" are armor that is only useful in Gambit. You get not more money from me Bungie.

                          I just stopped because I’m tired of re-grinding the same milestones over and over again. Blind well is so boring it makes me ill.
