After 500, the Portal Activities are No Fun
Not sure how to say it in more detail, but having to play Portal activity on Ultimate for decent rewards can be fun when playing with a group on comms with everyone using meta load-outs, but having to play every match-made activity on Ultimate with limited revives usually ends in disaster.
I took 4 months off when Edge of Fate released. I did not enjoy the ball mechanic in particular, but decided to come back when Bungie offered the chest of 300 gear. Grinded my way to 500 by the end of last season, and was looking forward to Renegades.
When Renegades launched, I played through the campaign and got the light saber. However, being forced into the portal to grind seasonal ranks at 500 light level sucks. Every match-made activity is a sweaty, frustrating experience, and you are more likely to load into a 6 player activity with no lives left on the initial encounter. No way to relax, have fun, and level up your season pass.
Hopefully Bungie can address this issue. I guess I’m just going to play the seasonal end-game activities, until I don’t. Being forced to play Portal activities at higher levels just sucks, but I guess I’m a more casual player now and expect fun more than having to prove to Bungie every time I play that I can tolerate their game. I have a job, and I don’t want to feel like I’d just rather go to work than play Destiny 2.

Agreed. I have posted about this before, that being at 500 gives a false impression of my skill. If I want to advance my level, I have to play activities which are way beyond my ability and, with limited revives, usually a pointless waste of my time and others.

2 RepliesAgreed. I don't even think limited revives should exists anywhere outside of hard mode/contest raids and conquests. And the other issue with the multitude of negative modifiers to contend with is that they make the game just down right unenjoyable. They don't really even add much "actual" difficulty, just annoyance.

The game is not fun, and this is the main problem. They don't care because the dev team is mismanaged, and obviously, these people don't play the game.
