Beta Player. Saying goodbye...finally
Dear Destiny, Bungie, The Community
I'm sure you've read these posts before but it's my time to permanently leave this game. This game has brought me hundreds of hours of enjoyment and great times and even some good friends. I began being excited for this game ever since it's announcement, wanting to once again enter the awesomeness that is Bungie's presence. I remember my first raid like it was yesterday, me and some best friends staying up late going in blind. All the trials and tribulations led me to having some of the best times I've ever had, and ever will have, in my video game career (Loot Cave and the greedy Rahool, Jackolyte, Felwinter's Sniper, pushing around the Templar, that sweet sweet Gjallarhorn, Kneeled Crota, Burn Skolas). I played daily for the entirety of Year 1 loving it, so excited to get my hands on TTK and leaving school early to get it (Yes I'm 17, "got sick") and my hands shaking when I finally had it.
However, after returning to this game from a quick 3 week break and experiencing other FPS (CoD: BO3, Halo 5: Guardians, even Fallout 4 to an extent) I've come to realize I just don't have fun with this game anymore. The story is bland and doesn't quench my thirst of knowledge for its lore like other games. The gun play used to be amazing and tight, but with all of the changes I'm afraid Bungie is unsure of what they want for their multiplayer and has made the PvP unbearable to play unless in a group of well organized friends that know how to play (I'm looking at you Iron Banner!) Last but not least the raid. Yes, it's better than Crota, but dare I say is probably the easiest thing I've ever done. Challenge mode? Ha, you mean small tweaks to the already used methods. This game has become boring in its PvE and frustratingly broken in its PvP and it pains me to play now knowing what is used to be.
Although I basically just shat on this game harder than a Striker on a Defender bubble on B flag, I still love it. I criticize this game because it is...was...awesome. This game has truly impacted my gaming career and will always be a landmark in my books and for that I say thank you. Sadly, the way Bungie is taking this game is not for me.
I love what this game was. What it had the potential to be and will just be disappointed that I'll never see that. Goodbye Destiny, it's Community and goodbye Bungie, I hope your quest for world domination comes together because you guys deserve more than Master Chief deserves a good game again.
Sincerely,
a Veteran to both Destiny and Bungie

Have a great break. Finish Fallout 4. It's great. Also, if you haven't played Metal Gear Solid V yet, it's an amazing game. See you in Destiny 2! You know you'll be back ;P

Edited by MuffsFatMan: 1/7/2016 4:24:47 PMEveryone needs a break. Being able to only play 2-3 hours a week and do the important things is always good as well. But qqing isn't really that helpful. Although everything your saying is true. Pvp balancing is non existent and pve content for the hardcore players are also none existent.

Ignore the filthy trolls. See ya later bro.

7 RepliesThis community is so hilarious. I read all of these "I'm a veteran and I'm finally leaving" posts where everybody is all glossy-eyed about the year 1 glory days and just laugh. I was here, man. Year 1 was absolutely ridiculous. When my vault gear became useless literally 5 days after I got over Forever 29, I lost my goddamn shit. When I started getting kicked from parties for having Hunger of Crota instead of Gjallarhorn, I lost my goddamn shit. The RNG in year 1 was just absolutely abysmal. I didn't get a single Hawkmoon until about a week before The Taken King dropped. In The Taken King, I've gotten 4. Yes, year 1 was also great and a lot of wonderful things happened. I can still remember the first time I beat Atheon and the first time I beat Crota, the first time I successfully ran the sword and when Gjallarhorn FINALLY dropped for me just prior to The House of Wolves. I can still remember dropping Skolas in like 42 seconds... I remember my Ice Breaker and how it was just an all around wonderful weapon. Okay? I get it. Some things in year 1 were amazing. However, I also remember the countless bugs and glitches, the lag that still exists to this day, Queen's Wrath leaving for months and not getting changed so we actually like it and then coming back for a week solely to promote DLC, a shotgun so powerful that it was nicknamed the Felwinter's Sniper, that time my Shadow Price became obsolete so I deleted it only to find out that I could never get it back and then Bungie gave us Etheric Light and then they took that away from us too, how frustrating the Thorn bounty was to solo, Vault of Glass giving me double drops of Praedyth's Revenge way too many times but never giving me Fatebringer, Vex Mythoclast dominating the Crucible for a few days and then getting nerfed into the ground only to come back and get nerfed into the ground again, Thorn, the absolutely abysmal storytelling and so much more. Yes. Year 1 had some great times that I'll remember and cherish for the rest of my time as a gamer. However, there's so much shit I wish I could forget about year 1 as well. The Taken King is a step in the right direction (as far as content goes, [b]not business practices[/b]... No). This game finally has a competent storyline in it. We have a bad guy with a goal and a reason for us to stop him from achieving it as opposed to some floating black goo that we hate because... Um. He makes robots teleport.

You'll be back :) If what you said was true [quote]This game has brought me hundreds of hours of enjoyment and great times and even some good friends[/quote] We'll see you in Destiny 2

5 RepliesEdited by InsectShelf3: 1/7/2016 3:41:48 PMI bet That someday when bungie hits gold with this game (and I seriously believe they will) you'll come back. And we'll be waiting guardian. And you'll be welcomed back like you never left

A teenage -blam!-? So rare to see one of these while playing destiny nowadays.

3 RepliesYup. I have played recently due a friend getting the game and asking me to join him but this game took a turn in the wrong direction in TTK. Some things were done well but a lot of it went downhill. Exotic weapons are given out like candy with 3oC (never abused the exploit as I didn't even know of it until the patch notes). The exotic quests were too easy to acquire. I was hoping for RNG quests like thorn, SGA, etc... though the bounty tracker. Kings fall raid was over done imo. There are too many mechanics tied into it to create an annoying, tedious, raid. Super grindy RNG to reach max light. Removing buff from nightfall and high level loot drops to at least possibly reach max light. An entire years worth (and $$$ worth) of content completely irrelevant. I think they had a lot correct in HoW with the exception of prison of elders and poor "raid" weapons. If it was a raid released, HoW would have been the best expansion released. Trials of Osiris was a hit and etheric light brought all expansions together

6 RepliesEdited by Star Gazer2: 1/6/2016 5:19:28 PMI am also a beta player, and I'm leaving as well. Nothing left to do in this game any more and the toxic community is giving me no reason to stay. You are wise to leave before this game destroys itself. For me, it feels like it is getting closer and closer to playing like CoD, and I hate CoD. Will probably move to Halo 5, where there is actual balance and weapon limitations. Yeah, Destiny has very little weapon limitations and that can result in many unbalanced messes, such as the special weapon meta we are in, barely in limits on special ammo. If another weapon gets nerfed when it didn't need to, I will be greatly disappointed... I'm ranting. Anyway, I'll gone from this game long enough to not care anymore how the community tears this game apart. plus, when I did a "Goobeye Destiny" post, I got quite a bit a hate, while everyone likes yours. It is clear to me that this community never liked me anyway.

1 ReplyOke goodbye.... Finally

2 RepliesI'm annoyed with people in these comments as the posts meaning was not to shout that he's leaving for good but more to share his experiences and where he think Bungie went wrong in his eyes. So please anybody who's about to comment a really bad meme or a "who the hell cares" comment just don't because your making yourself seem like the idiot. Also if you are one of these people your opinion is irrelevant because I can guarantee you didn't even read the full post ;)

7 RepliesAgain no one cares. Thank you for the "look at me I need attention" post. Dont enjoy the game and quitting?Well good for you. But the people that do enjoy the game don't care.

See you when Destiny 2 launches

4 RepliesEdited by TW MASTER: 1/6/2016 5:12:56 PMAs A Fellow Beta Player. I Salute You. Farewell. Personally I don't blame you for leaving. Bungie is slowly killing off their fanbase every patch, and dlc release. The sad part of it all.. is i don't think they even realize it. I guess they don't check server numbers and compared them to year 1 very often.

1 ReplyDont listen to the dickheads man! I feel the same way as you, I have nearly 4000 hours dont everything and anything but its just not doing it for me now. I think SRL showed that Bungie doesnt know what they are doing.
