I never thought me, of all people, would say this.

But I am starting to lose interest in Destiny. And I'm starting to lose it [i]fast.[/i] Yesterday, I kept browsing the PlayStation store looking for new games. And then when I closed it out and saw Destiny 2, I just sighed. I just don't understand. How does this even happen? I was expecting Destiny 2 to be everything Destiny 1 was(Post Rise Of Iron) and better. It's not even that. This just feels like a repeat of Vanilla D1. And as much as I hate putting on those stupid rose-tinted glasses, Destiny 1 actually had a raid that was enjoyable. It had fascinating gear with perks that were HELPFUL(Bonus damage to oracles, and extra heavy ammo boots, anyone?) And all the weapons were top-tier, and if they weren't top tier, they were still good. Fatebringer, Found Verdict, Mythoclast, Praedyth's Revenege, Hezen Vengeance, Vision of Confluence. It also gave us a sense of prestige and sense of wonder. Elemental Primaries! A legendary type of weapon that could only be found as a reward from the raid. Obtaining these gave you a sense of [b]power[/b], as on Nightfalls with a burn, your -blam!-ing primary was doing an unreasonable amount of damage. Everything in D2 seems.. Weak. Unimpressive. (Except Legend of Acrius. I love that thing.) I'm a titan main(duh) and in D1, [i]An Insurmountable Skullfort[/i] and [i]Dunemarchers[/i] were not that appealing to me. But in D2? They're arguably one of the best exotics titans have right now. And they're still the same version from D1! I'm just gonna cut this post short and say this: [b][i]The Endgame is not fun, and the rewards aren't worth the headache.[/i][/b] I'm not gonna do the stupid Exodus Crash strike on prestige because it's [b][i][u]BUGGED, IT IS NOT FUN TO DO BECAUSE OF HOW POORLY DESIGNED IT IS, AND BECAUSE OF TIMERS AND THE STUPID TIME ONION RINGS AND ODKWKDJEOWKRNWOWJRJWD[/u][/i][/b] And what reward am I gonna get? A duplicate/and or undesired exotic and some tokens? I am 305. These rewards don't mean anything to me anymore. The Prestige raid won't mean anything to me because it doesn't increase light level. The weapons are boring and dull. And the bad part about this is, the community [b][i][u]HAS BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE LAUNCH. WE HAVE BEEN SAYING THE SAME -blam!-ING COMPLAINTS SINCE LAUNCH.[/u][/i][/b] YOU KNOW WHAT WE GET? WE GET STUPID WEEKLY UPDATES TELLING US SHIT WE ALREADY KNOW AND AT THE VERY -blam!-ING END OF IT, WE GET "We hear you" OR SOME OTHER VAGUE SHIT I. JUST. WANT. ANSWERS. Address each of our problems and give us solutions that you are working on. Getting a "we hear you" every week is demoralizing, Bungie. It really is. I mean, -blam!-. This game has become such a bore that I'm not even motivated to write fan-fictions or some other cringy crap. That at least should tell you how I am feeling. Please. Stop the reskins. Stop half-assing. Talk to us. Give us a roadmap. [b][i]Do something.[/i][/b] I'll still stick around. But I will not be playing as much until something changes. It has to, or you're asking for your game to fail. Come on, Bungie. I know you can do it. All those talented folks up at Seattle can give us all what we've been asking for.

  • I agree with everything OP said and I'll add one more reason why Bungie screwed up. Fixed stats on armor n weapons. I'll just stick to the simpler of the two. Armor. If we discuss stats on weapons we'll be here for hours. But ok, armor. So you're chasing a particular piece of armor whether it be helmet, arms, chest piece, legs or class item from whichever activity (iron banner, ikora gear, crucible gear etc.) You get the helmet u been chasing, yet it has no recovery on it or it has no resilience or it has no mobility. If you end up getting that same helmet to drop again, it drops with the same stats cuz it's a fixed stat. I mean, proof of laziness is right there in plain sight. So they changed it from intellect, discipline and strength to mobility, resilience and recovery but at least in D1 u could grind for the best stats on armor. But in D2, u HAVE to wear SPECIFIC gear (doesn't matter if u like how they look on your character) to reach a particular setup you're looking for. It's just insane dude. They basically designed some ugly clothing and mixed in some decent looking ones, drew fixed stats on all of them, wrote some coding on when and how they drop and said, ok guys, go play. Angry Birds 2 and Candy Crush look like they put more effort into making their game compared to Bungie honestly. It's a shame...

    • I only started playing D1 the last 6 months of year three, loved it and knew noting about D2. I bought the base game and the season pass expecting an amazing game, instead I got barely 2 weeks of entertainment, I feel ripped off. The only reason I'm still playing is to get to 305 out of spite, this game was a lie in a $90 dollar box and at the rate it is losing players I doubt i'm going to see the dlc I prepaid for. -blam!- Bungie.

      i used to sink so many hours into this game even though we used to have real long content droughts, but there was something about the game that kept us coming back, something that i just can't find in D2. I always thought this so called sequel would be the pinnacle of Destiny's evolution, instead it just ended up being the game's death, considering bungie had 3 long years of beta testing that should have served as a learning process.

      • When Destiny was first being shown off we were promised a Large Shared World Shooter RPG. That was "Ancient Fantasy" + "Hard Science Fiction". We got a standard FPS with some looting, and near zero word building. I just do not understand how people can defend an unfinished product. Especially after what happened in Destiny 1. We expect the whole game. We do not want to have to wait for things that should have been in the game when we got it, only to have them called "DLC". We should not have to pay more money to make the game whole when it should have been at launch. F2P games like Warframe can do that because they are F2P. You are getting the game for free so it being a work-in-progress is forgivable. Destiny is made by AAA developers, supported by AAA publishers, and is sold as a $60 game. They already have the money and support they need to make a complete product. The fact that it is NOT a complete game at launch, and is actually an incomplete foundation that relies on content updates as well as paid DLCs to add things that should have been in the game in the first place, is unacceptable. A $60 game should not act like a F2P game. It should be a complete game at release.

      • Long live the casual! Still not 305 on my main. Still haven't touched adventure missions except for the EDZ ones. Still completing campaign on my titan. I'm glad I paced myself. I'll still be having fun with the content up to the new DLC. Hell, I might even go cringe mode and write a few fanfic stories.

      • Yep. And it's so beautiful.. I love the look of my Warlock. Love the Dawnblade, though wish I could use it more. But I have already hit 305 and have no drive. I've never hit level cap this fast. I always was behind. And this is without raid or trials..

      • Could have been fixed if they got rid of infusion and maybe added more perks per level aka 1 perk for uncommon 2 for rare 3 for legendary and 4 for exotics. Instead perks are equal for rare and legendary hell some of the rare items are even better. Maybe I don't know make the drops happen according to their name and have all exotics be part of a quest or an activity.

          • Agreed. Me, my brother and friends love Destiny. This game is garbage and it makes me so sad and angry. I can't, for the life of me, begin to imagine how the team that made Taken King put this garbage out... it took them three years to undo twenty years of Bungie Progress? Honestly, was Halo 1 even 4vs4? What is going on?

          • I'LL SAY IT AGAIN FOR THE FANBOYS The destiny 2 beta launched MANY red flags, but of course the typical "just wait until the beta" turned into "its an old build" or "wait until pc beta" or even "wait until release" If anyone here has even a bit of common sense and know how development works, this game was done before the beta launched. Between beta and launch, all they were doing is building the dlc and looking for bugs/making a day one patch

          • Its wierd. The whole part time Destiny deal where we do the things to upgrade light then wait for next week is wearing thin. Im a diehard destiny fan but there IS something missing. Dont know if its the 4 person pvp, lack of pvp options, pve content feeling lacking, not sure but destiny has lost its magic and replayability. I love playing D2 but only on reset and now that most characters are near max im not sure. havent even done the raid yet. but maybe were comparing a new game in D2 to D1 which had 3 years of content at the end. D1 has more to do because well it took three years to add on content. not sure i like facets of D2 and am bored by others. mature adult here not that it matters well as mature as still gaming is......

            • I have not posted on the forum since the launch of D2 but was literally coming on to say the same exact thing. I played 3,204 hours of Destiny 1. At times it consumed me. I was first mystified by the Raids. There wasn’t a week that went by that I didn’t try to complete Crota, Vault, and Oryx on all three characters. I then got hooked on PvP and grinded for that god roll gun (I never did get my Hopscotch!) Before working tirelessly until I reached the lighthouse. D2 has already lost my interest after 109 hours. Bungie has so much time and feedback to mill over and got so many things wrong that it makes me want to jump through a wall. I’m not a fan of countdown and I don’t want to play supremacy yet I don’t have an option. Bringing back the Mida was foolish and making it the most powerful fun in PvP is ruining my experience. Getting the first shot off will help you win a lot of gun battles so being able to ADS with the Mida and keep your radar makes it damn near impossible to put the gun down because it gives you that much of an advantage never mind that it is in the best archetype of scouts and gives you a speed boost like you are all hopped up on uppers. But worst of all like many have said before me is that they took away everything to grind for and the one game mode I looked forward to every week (Trials) has an added layer of difficulty when you can now face an even more stacked team. I am frustrated beyond belief right now and there is no end in sight.

              • Never thought I would be in the complaining section of the forums but God damn this game is boring as -blam!-. Difference is when destiny 1 was out there weren't that many other games out that interested me. I can say now thank god battlefront 2 is coming out and Tom clancy wildlands is amazing. Since I can only handle destiny 2 on weekends during trials
