Updated after TWAB
Translation guide:
Fun = Grind
Meaningful Gear = Something we don't want you to be able to afford until you are max light
Max Light = Something that will take the average player the whole season to obtain
Masterwork Armor = Something that the average player can't afford
Daily Heroic Challenge = Four Day Heroic Challenge
Powerful Gear = Not so Powerful Gear
Power Weapon = Edge Transit
Masterwork Core = Scarce resource needed for infusion (Apparently this will be called something else now) I have heard it called Grindy Gems or a few other suggestions.
Mod Components= Scarce resource primarily available to year 1 players who destroyed year 1 weapons/armor
Year 1 Armor = Something we don't want you to use
Etheric Spiral = Planetary material on Tangled Shore that is rarely used
Dead Ghost Parts = The real planetary material on the Tangled Shore that is used for weekly bounties and is hard to obtain in quantity due to qty 10 limit
Strike Catalysts = Mythical item that doesn't exist
Crucible Catalysts = Mythical item that doesn't exist
Nightfall Exclusive loot = Mythical item that doesn't exist
Forsaken Exotics = Extremely Rare item that drops RNG. The more you obtain the lower the chance to get what you don't have due to diluted loot pool.
Forsaken Quest Exotics = Guaranteed item that drops from completing quest. However, it further dilutes the exotic loot pool, making it harder to obtain what you don't have.
Planetary Vendors and Xur = People you visited in year 1, and don't see again in Year 2 unless their destination is flashpoint.
Scout Rifiles/Fusion Rifles = Things we nerf
Edit added a few more:
Redeeming Banshee rewards = Set of 10 thumb push reps
Gambit Bouties/quests = Things we introduced so players won't play the objective to win.
Good PvE exotics (ie Sleeper) = Things we nerf to appease PvP players
Eververse error = Critical error we must immediately patch
Game and quest breaking errors = minor errors we will fix eventually
Job = Redrix's Broadsword quest
Job = Waiting for Malfeasance boss in Gambit
Overtime Job = Iron in the Blood bounty, Complete 30 Iron Banner matches (per character, 90 total) in 1 week
Overtime Job = Grinding faction rallies to level 50 in 1 week for only chance (so far) to get certain catalysts
Part time Job = Shader deletion (now only part time with cryptarch's help)
Filthy Casual = Anyone playing less than 80/hours week
Customer Service = There is no word in "bungie speak" for this, does not translate (forum posts and tweets do not make up for lack of support chat, email, phone, etc).
We are listening = We are listening (to the streamers)
Clan Bounties = PvP Bounties
Ammo Synths = Forgot to bring those from D1 (Raid flags are an improvement)
Skeleton Keys = Forgot to bring those form D1
Class ability choices = Forgot to bring those from D1
Glass Needles = Forgot to bring those from D1
Eris Mourn = Forgot her from D1 (Guess she doesn't have a ship ...)
Sleeping Beauty Triumph for all 40 nodes on Mars = Let's make them open Descent.Cavern.Warsat 1600 times before we give them all 40
Control = Clash
Iron Banner Control = Clash
Supremacy = Clash
Clash = Clash
Edit: Strike Catalysts apparently [i]do[/i] exist. I got Wardiff Coil last night. After grinding Vanguard to rank 50 last season and not getting any, I was starting to doubt.
I still maintain Crucible catalysts are a myth. I reset my valor last season and grinded up half again and got no drops. This season I just grinded out 30 ranks of Iron Banner and [i]still[/i] no Catalyst drops.

Solid post. Funny and true.

Destiny 1 Year 3-"We finally got progression, infusion, the loot system, vendors, faction packages, strike specific loot, Iron Banner post game rewards, the nightfall, raids, and other endgame activities working perfectly and rewarding powerful gear. Destiny 2-"We forgot everything we fixed over the last 3 years, and gave you a complete pile of shit that is built around PvP balance, and worse than vanilla D1. "Why?" "Because we want that Esports money!" We added ugly armor, shitty weapons, basic skill trees, a stupid weapon system, no faction vendors or packages, no strike specific loot, no post game Iron Banner rewards, no ammo synths, no powerful tracking launchers, only one rocket in launcher magazines, no machine guns, weak supers, slow as -blam!- ability cooldowns, no progression, broken and limited/locked infusion, a predictable story with the worst writing even seen in a AAA video game, more jumping puzzles, annoying raid mechanics, a stupid raid revive system, no armor perks, no Intellect Discipline Strength, and put Mobility Armor Recovery on armor, instead of in the skill tree where they belong." "Don't worry." "We're going to spend the next year making the game what it should have been at launch, and then charge you another $80 for the new expansion and annual pass." "This time around we decided to make progression and infusion extremely drawn out, annoying, and expensive, because the elitist neckbeards think this game should be WoW." "So, good luck being able to do the raid or other endgame activities anytime soon, unless you're a basement dwelling YouTuber or streamer that plays 24/7." "We're still making the players play the way we want them to, and we're still making PvE players play PvP for quests and bounties." "Even though the community has asked for the complete separation of PvE and PvP for the last 4 years." "We're also going to nerf weapons that make PvP players sad, because they're too terrible at the game to realize that standing out in the open during invasion makes them an easy target." "We still haven't added ammo synths or bigger magazines on rocket launchers, because they make people cry." "Machine guns are coming back, but we'll find a way to -blam!- those up too, because they make people cry." "Enjoy the endless grind!" <3 Cozmo

That fact you spent all that time writing out this stupid post comes to show how much of a life you dont have.
-
You forgot one. Fun - tedious repetition with little to no chance of reward

Edited by Skelator: 9/27/2018 3:43:24 AMNot playing atm but i still get this and love it. Thanks for sharing. I always hated how w every single DLC that comes out makes your gear obsolete n worthless. Btw. I got the colony catalyst back in warmind from pvp
-
"We're making huge improvements to the game which will be released over the next few patches" = Gives us a chicken-petting emote.
-
Thought I'd add a few items to the list... "We're listening" = "We stopped caring as soon as we realized you weren't a streamer." "I'll pass this along to the dev team." = "We shall never discuss this topic again." "Working as intended" = "We screwed up, but will never admit it." "Feedback forums" = "Forum graveyard" "We increased the drop rate" = "We buffed drop rates by .01%... and may have created a bug that stops the item(s) from dropping altogether."
-
Does "not as intended" translate to "exactly as intended but you caught us" or "yeah we really don't bother with much playtesting, if it's not crashing constantly it's good"?
-
worth a nice chuckle

Edited by DF DreamDemon: 9/26/2018 6:16:57 AMNetwork Error: Check Your Connection = Our servers blow, but we need to blame you so we don't need to do our jobs.
-
"End-game content" = "F*** you, solo players!"
-
I blame a lot of this on the streamers who provided, "feedback".

Destiny is a first person shooter: shoot first or die... Destiny is a first person shooter: shoot anything and we nerf... “There will be loot”: in your dreams... “Play it your way”: as long as we approve... Masterwork cores are for everything, but, you can’t get none: “can’t touch this” 🕺

Edited by ShaxxCousin: 9/26/2018 12:04:47 AMAny glitch that benefits players, immediate that day / next day patch. Any glitch that hurts players, bungie fixes months later.
-
Translation: We didn't make enough content as usual and we need to get by for an entire year because we're not offering anymore expansions, just the tiny updates that use to be free that Tess was intended for but you will pay for them now. This means we will drag out what tiny content we offered as long as we can by making you guys grind hours upon hours upon hours, hoping you will get a drop. Thank you for buying our expansion and tune into next week so we can tell you the same thing. Thank you :)

I speak Bungie. Bungie: "So you stream... That entitles you to cheat, glitch and exploit all you want with no fear of us calling you out on it. We're even going to slip you some "help" from time to time. Just advertise and say nothing of our short comings." Bungie: "You don't stream? Just an average Joe? That entitles you to nothing. Play our way or subscribe to our streamers. We don't give 2 shits about your thoughts." Fluently even.
-
Bungie? Never heard of them. I am however fluent in Edge Transit.

Streamer Summit= Meeting to screw up the game

Edited by penehoff: 9/25/2018 5:20:16 PMSleeper simulant should be removed from anything pvp related unless it gets nerfed . Reason is because it doesnt give anyone the opportunity to defend against it , it can 1 shot kill from ungodly range .. at least a sniper rifle you cans see the the light and have time to evade. And if not pvp definitely gambit , because its 1 shot and lot of time your two distracted with everything else you dont get a chance to run and hide and fight back.

Edited by redhairwarrior80: 9/26/2018 1:04:11 PMExotic quest - No single player quests anymore just online quest costing you more money then the expansion as if your 3rd month or 12 month subscription just flat out ended on that month and you only had enough time to get the ace of spades on your hunter New abilities - NEW CHEESE FOR US TO NERF LOL Exotics- *1 Month later* Why is my exotic not activating the perk that i loving using? Powerful gear 2nd meaning - As soon as you get a legendary engram. Guess what? Its like the same power level as you already have! congratz spend money so you can get buff like everyone else dreaming city- as soon as you get in everything is stronger and bigger then you Edge Transit- all you'll be getting for many times in a row from that prime engram you keep fighting for You tubers Play/sponsoring- using cheese methods they suggest and bungie likes them using it However when we use it they decide yeah we'll patch it
-
Sorry, can't read. I only speak logic.

Destiny is like a shiny boardgame with top notch components and a terrible rulebook with bad rules. It's in dire need of house rules to make it work. Sadly you can't mod it and have it run on your own server.

Glass needles??? I don't remember those in d1??? Am I getting forgetful in my old age?? [spoiler]existential crisis ensues[/spoiler]

Dude I just fell off the toilet laughing 🙏👍
