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

U may check out anytime u like, but u can never leave

See ya man so what game you gonna play

I don't understand why people make goodbye posts. You have decided to stop playing a game and change to another one. Why anyone would feel the need to announce it to an entire community is beyond me. What did you guys do when you decided to stop playing a game that didn't have a community forum like destiny? Did you announce that you were going to quit to everyone you knew and cite the reasons why?

Wow. Loser

That is along a similar vein of what friends of mine have said as well. So much potential. But honestly today's gaming crowd, and society in general, has zero patience. But even though I've been waiting it's still not quite there. The other thing is a lot of us that are older just don't have the pure time needed to pump into this game anymore. For a lot of people that's a detractor.

Omg... We care all so much!! Bet u wake up every morning to see the posts we leave!! Haha just go away plz!!! Thanks!!

Smh at today's youth. I can't figure out for the life of me, why someone feels the need to come on a video game and announce their departure. All video games get old, lose their appeal at some point, that's why so many are made each year. When a game gets old for me or starts to get old, i simply look for something else to play. Never in my life has it occurred to me, or have i had the inclination to, write what is essentially a Dear John letter to the game i no longer feel like playing. Destiny is not and was never your girlfriend/boyfriend. It's a form of entertainment, if you're not entertained anymore, play something else.

Bye :D

Just give it some time. Destiny, like many mmo-ish games, are meant to be come back to after new content drops, and do well with breaks. Sad to see you go if you truly are leaving.

Edited by l cohen l: 1/6/2016 8:11:49 PMI have a couple of problems with your post. Firstly, the PvP is probably the most balanced it has been since the game launched. Yes, it still has a couple of problems, but there's no weapons that are currently OP beyond belief. Also, you just judged it on one of the laggiest parts of the game (IB) where your Light Level actually matters. A 295 Titan can't kill anything above 315 with a Shoulder Charge. Secondly, the game is only a year into it's ten year life span. Give it more of a chance, you have to remember that they suffered some internal problems just before launch. One of the biggest ones was Joseph Staten leaving. I'd say they've done well with the carcass of a game they were left with.
