Bungie, you absolutely nailed it.
Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING in that article is exactly what I and many other were hoping for.
[spoiler]I’d give you a kiss but we are still in a pandemic :([/spoiler]

1 ReplyEverything except bailing on sunsetting was a step forward. Bailing on sunsetting is a decision Bungie will come to regret. The community won the battle, but lost the war. This games loot woes are going to get worse. Not better.

2 RepliesI’m going to wait and see if this actually gets done. They talk big but a lot of it ends up a head scratcher. I truly hope they fix this game but I’m going to wait for positive results. I thing moving look and bringing in good talent is a good thing.
-
First time huh? Wait until actual patch notes. Bungo is about one step forward and two back.
-
4 RepliesNot. They fooled all of you. Empty promises again.
-
Thank them for doing obvious things they should (or shouldn't have) have done in the first place?

32 RepliesEdited by Phyromancer: 2/26/2021 8:08:48 AMYes, celebrate! We have some good news today. But don't get carried away yet. I also have a couple things to say. It's good when we say LET'S GO! But me, I'm not going anywhere. I quit the game just before sunsetting, and it left a really sour taste. I'm not moving forward. I've totally quit on the game now. Yes, today is a win. But we also lost. We lose 3 years worth of rewards. In the end, we didn't win much. They wanted to sunset. And they did 3 years worth of rewards. Yes, go and celebrate. But make sure you read everything they said. They said "they will take the time this year to research and validate a plan that creates a fresh and balanceable ecosystem." At the moment, we don't know what that means and what it will look like. This is Bunyon you are talking about. They could come up with any BS anytime they want. They also said "we believe there’s nothing more important in Destiny than getting our rewards right." Again, this is Bunyon. We don't know what that means. We don't know what their "RIGHT REWARDS" mean. We know what the "Right" rewards are good for us. But we don't know what it means to them and what the "Right" rewards they wanna bring into the game a year from now. That statement right there is still sketchy. Be observant. Wait and see what they'll do next. I know we got some good news today, celebrate! But there are some bad news as well. They wanted sunsetting, and they got what they came to do. Lose 3 years of our rewards. Never to be used again. They may recycle them back. But we'll never use the ones we got rewarded for in the past 3 years. All that playtime, effort, and rewards, gone! I don't want to rain on our parade, guys. I want you to celebrate. But stay sceptical about the future. You should know who you're dealing here by now. I'm still out! Enjoy the game and hope for the best. I'll be watching you Guardians!

1 ReplyTotally agree!

As I was reading the state of game post I couldn’t help but smile.

I’m glad about it I’ve been playing the outsiders demo and it’s cringe imo and doesn’t seem that fun I neeed destiny to get better lol Also they just called it quits on anthem today 😔 I was hoping for a comeback
-
Not only that, I would also appreciate Bungie quite alot for this season. It is the best season so far. Exotic mission, interesting new perks, I really like D1 strikes that were brought back and I even like battlegrounds (as mindless mode as it is, I just love that it has TONS of stuff to EXPLODE).
-
I loved all of it too, made me feel a lot better about the game. I hope folks realize that its going to take a lot of time for it all to come though.
-
2 RepliesNah..I took this with a grain of salt. They need to prove it.
-
I mean the change is good, but they were warned way ahead of time being pulling this stunt. We shouldn't be praising any of this.
-
We rose up against sunsetting, they didnt make any decisions, WE DID. Bungie do this all the time, change something to make it worse, wait a few months, revert the change, expect to be praised.

3 RepliesI'm thankful, but also cautiously optimistic. My wife and I came back to the have with beyond light after sitting out shadowkeep and forsaken. She quit the game, deleted her characters, and uninstalled the game after a few months. All because of stasis, the broken handcannon/shotgun meta, and grinding for rng loot that was junk most of the time. Had there been any sign of changes coming in the near future, she might've hung in there. But when crucible is so, so broken, you can't afford to wait for months or a year. People have dropped this game altogether permanently. I get wanting to study data, but sometimes you just have to look at something and take it at face value and make a change. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty happy pvp will be seeing some changes. I'm just sad because I swore off crucible game modes and it looks like I'll have to keep waiting for months or longer to be able to play again.
-
I would take it with a grain of salt. They always have hard decisions to make. They are going to come up with some way to sunset or nerf. All the old stuff we've been using still has been sunsetted. The one thing that will be interesting... is if we can run Trials bounties solo.

9 RepliesIndeed...Luke Smith just had to be removed from heading the game. Joe is awesome
-
Yep. Seems like an internal demon or two has finally been exorcised. Or apprehended. Or rather, given a new job title on other Destiny media. I dunno. Been watching too much Evil on Netflix. Dumping every Destiny year 1 weapon directly into the loot pool would certainly inject some life into the game but I doubt it'll happen. Imagine all the farming opportunities.

2 Replies[i]missing info on crucible or gambit maps but yeah everything was really nice[/i]

I’d still kiss them

I also appreciate that Bungie stopped sunsetting.
-
Sorry. Knee pads are not called for - the game is trash now. Sams club or Costco wholesale garbage

1 ReplySo you praise Bungie for things they never should have Change. Wow. They did not undo sunsetting. Nothing in past is coming back. What other half truths did they say? They have no goodwill left.
