Has Bungie lost touch with the community? After 3 years of the same issues can we trust they will get it right for Destiny 2: The Forge of Hope? Hope? Should we still have HOPE in Bungie? Someone said they do data analysis and have been doing everything they need to, to make this game great. Have they been doing it right? They do not do it RIGHT! Big difference. Destiny is like a second language you need to immerse yourself into the culture to be able to understand what anyone is talking about. When I read the forums I know exactly what everyone is talking about because I have immersed myself into the game and culture, whether I agree with people or not is irrelevant. The people making changes to this game have no idea what anyone is talking about because they are disconnected from the community. Deej and Cozmo can only convey so much to these people. They sit in towers all day twiddling thumbs and comparing graphs and numbers and that is an old way of doing things. The world is an ever changing stream and if you don't hop in you'll be left behind. Is it time for a different strategy? What they have been doing for the past 3 years has been making the game worse and making the player-base shrink. Those are not good signs for a game that wants to make it successfully to a 10 year benchmark. We are only in Destiny number 1 and they are already struggling to please everyone. I don't want to even think about what will happen if they don't alter their plan of attack and get this game back on track for the next 7.5 years. Tl;dr: The problem isn't with the community, the problem lies within Bungie and their terrible philosophies.
