Its not your fault
TL:DR: players are not devs, we cant go into the games coding too make balance better or worse. The state of Destiny is not your fault. Now the devs with degrees working at bungie on the other hand.....
I was on reddit and...[url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/6dlc8e/as_a_community_we_have_destroyed_this_game/]Just read[/url] (link lost....damn it) Now Idk about you guys but I dont know anything about developing a game nor do I have a degree with other game's I've worked on , on my résumé. I'm not at a company where the balancing was an issue for 2+years. I have no direct way of communicating to the devs a bungie nor do I think coz or deej even read my post. So how the -blam!- is it on me?
LSS, It's not your (or my) fault destiny is unbalanced. It's not our fault there has been issues since the beginning destiny, and Its not our job to make the game better (no matter what a fan said's). I hate a nerfer more than anyone, but do I feel like they literally went in and changed the coding to make the game what it is? Hell no. Next Its going to be our fault for bungies bad decision making.....No its not. My hands are clean.
Don't be that type of fan where you are blaming yourself for what the game is. All those able minded individuals at bungie with degrees for what they are doing, and its on us? Wow. No wonder bungie likes reddit.
[b]Edit:[/b] I enjoy the game, but I wont go as far as to blame myself for bungies mistakes, and I for damn sure wont thank them for fixing things that should get fixed, and braking what isn't broken. I will thank them for.... the attempt to make the game better, but let's be real. We know they are capable of more than what they've been doing.
[b]Edit:[/b] I get that there are streamers, nerfer, and Youtubers that complained a lot, but still how many years has bungie been in business? They should be capable of finding better selections with their eyes closed (unless there has been a huge staff change in which case..uh oh).
In Destiny 2 if you are going to ask for feedback and "listen", maybe have polls where you are asking players about balance and changes? How does this scout feel? Does it feel Op? How do you feel about the warlocks sword tracking? Compare the polls too your data. If it looks good, leave it, and if not ask people to comment in a linked post. We can ask, but only you have the power to actually do anything to make the game better. You've tried in some areas of destiny (thanks for that), but in other areas where It counts you completely missed the mark, air ball, no touchdown. That is why some players are skeptical about Destiny 2, and they ones who aren't....Idk what too call you anymore.

TL;DR: bungie should stop trying to cater to everyone and we, as a community should be more considerate about what we have and what we ask for. Yea, its less about being "so much of a fan of the game" and more about patterns. Sit here at the forum and youll see it, people complain and threaten to leave the game if aspects of the game arent fixed, the community constantly preasures bungie to give them quick patches that fix anything they deem "unfair" Now, there is a time and place for feedback. Telling a developer that you can jump out of the map; thats somsthing that needs to be reported, voicing your vendetta against curtain video game weapons to the point where you demand people to get fired from their jobs... or even make death threats or threat to kill themselves... thats no longer feedback. Now, lets go back to the pattern i metioned, it goes something like this: Players pressure bungie for nerfs Bungie gives us nerfs. Players complain that no one wanted nerfs in the first place and preasure bungue to fix it. Players eventually move onto the next meta. Players complain...Cycle continues. Imagine of a great artist painted a beautiful landscape. Then someone walked up and, with good intentions, painted a few trees, then someone else came and painted mountains, and so on and so on. Eventually, the painting that was beautiful becomes a mess... is it the fault of the artist for trying to please everyone? Sure. But you could make the arguement that the people with paint on their hands also have some blame on their shoulders. Now, the arguement of "well bungie should know what feedback is good and what isnt" is a moot point. Theyre trying to cater to everyone... so trying to do that by listening to only a handful of posters is a bit silly. Everyone and their mother has a list of things they want to fix in crucible that will "make destiny great again". But let me ask, how many of those posts do you think have fixes that will be universally praised by all the players? Do you really think everyone wants a side arm nerf? Or nerfing every subclass except for hunters?
