I understand where you are coming from... I have over 250 hard mode raid completions in D1... However it seems like you are having issues with things that came to D1 after vanilla launch and was added to the gm later. I personally don't have many issues with is there and not there from D1, I feel like those things are coming back in 1 form or another and don't blame them for not putting all that stuff back in D2 at launch. I completely agree with point 1, but point 2 I dont agree with since most people only kept 1 version of the gun in the 1st place especially due to space, I don't agree 90% of guns are useless, I think the Kinetic/energy format opens up drastically different play styles and its not like people varied that much from there normal load out not withstanding there where alot more weapons to choose from when you consider 4 different raid, 4 trails, and strike and other activity weapon load outs to choose from. Sparrows? Who cares how big your collection is, you can only ride one at a time and you have 4 types to choose from, I couldn't care less about having 6 different sparrows with 160 speed that spawn instantly... I just want the exotic version and don't really care that there all at eververse b/c I would prefere them to be all in one place to be honest. No to mention sparrow racing is a special event that will come, so why complain that its not there at launch when it took years to get in the 1st place? I agree with 8, 9, and 10... Not sure what you mean by "secret exotics" but if I personally couldnt aquire it I really didnt care about it (I assume youre talking about warcliff in D1) same goes for easter eggs, they did nothing towards gameplay. As far as factions go... I kinda like what they did b/c it made the factions mean more and made it exciting for a couple of hrs at least when they virtually meant nothing in D1, I feel it could have been fleshed out a little better but I like the direction its going. I also don't agree in the slightest about the Leviathan raid. I think its a great raid that brings something new to the table and doesnt function like all the previous raids. I like the "game show" aspect of it b/c it makes sense in the context of the raid itself cause where being tested, what better way to do that then with deadly games. I also love the concept of the underbelly which is also vastly different way to move around the raid that we have never exp b4. I personnally feel that most people who complain about this raid have that nostalgic bug, where its always hard for anything new to compete with what was familiar and memorable from your 1st time attempting it and making memories with your buddies that you went though the struggle with. (B4 everyone just waited for buddies/youtubers to complete the raid and watched the best strats to beat it). I agree with 22 and 33 but most of the other stuff is complaining b/c all the things that took years to make its way to D1 is not in D2 and that argument is non sense in the 1st month of release. Most people only have a couple hrs to play daily, and the people whom are complaining is b/c they have already put in 2x's to 3x's the amount of time than the average player is able and now having a issue that there isn't anything to do. I purposely took my time with D2 for that very reason, and I still have twice the amount of time that friends with 8-9 hr jobs and have kids can possibly play. its hard to make content for eveyone, we all know that, but look at the larger picture, most likely you did a month worth of gameplay possibly in the 1st week or 2 of release and thats y people are having so many issues with it. My biggest gripe is the prestige raid/nightfall in relation to trails b/c they both represent the highest challenge in each respective game mode yet trails is far more rewarding than PvE activities. The rewards for prestige at this time are a joke, a virtual slap in the face for completing these activities. I have a big problem with this especially considering the dups I get in this game, I dont even wanna attempt another one after just getting a golden crown, skin for shotgun, chest and leg armor (which is in no way special, just like all other armor of same class, it just looks different). I personally feel there is no reason to prestige the raid, its meaningless and doesnt do anything other than make the raid far more difficult for less b/c you get no weapons what so ever, even reg raid weapons. After 12(normal)+1(prestige)=13 completions across all characters since launch and havent even gotten a full set or normal raid armor for any of my class or the hand cannon either b/c I keep getting the samethings over and over.

Bungie is right up there on the top with Funcom as the worst game companies.

Well said 1000+ the Destiny 2 experience is way off feels weird and boring at the same time i Hope with the DLC some of it's Magic come back if not i Will uninstal It and sell the game and back to Cuphead

Honestly mate reading this, its exactly what i feel too. I can't even express in words how much i dislike Destiny2 right now. Aside from the first week and a half where i put in around 80+ hours of game time (Mainly because my work had some college hopefuls doing work experience there so i wasn't required as much. Only been working there 2 years compared to all my other staff mates on their 5th and 6th years), any way back to the point, after the first 2 ish weeks of non stop playing, i only played maybe 3 hours a week, and it was only to do prestige nfs on each character and help some clan members through it. Now nearly 2 months later, i log in like each saturday, pick up some clan engram rewards, maybe visit xur to see if he has nighthawk, then i log back off and go play either Dark souls 3 (recently bought, still noobish af) or just log into destiny 1 and enjoy messing around in patrols. As seen in your post one of the earliest points, there are no random perk rolls, and that offers no differences or replayability that i got used to in D1, for instance, the undying mind strike (im xbx btw so having that as nf was fkn amazing) i grinded hours after hours, run after run, coffee and red bulls after coffee and redbulls to even get a semi decent drop of imago loop. (perks on my only semi decent one were Reactive reload, extended mag and fire fly). In D2 there is nothing like that, sure if i didnt get better devils to drop from one package, il just run as a squad again for another hour, 6 packages later bam i have 2. There is nothing unique anymore about legendaries, why should i run pvp trials with a legendary or even an exotic sniper, when my blue one is better, Not like there are power level limits that stop me doing less damage now are there. Point is i stuck through Destiny 1 through thick n thin, 3 years of it sometimes only playing pvp in one week, sometimes messing around trying to speedrun with my clan, or just friends in raids and pve activities, but at least there was something to do is D1 to keep me playing. Yes after HoW lost its hype and its burns it got dry, but Trials kept my regular D1 group together, always grinding sick snipes, or shotgun or hc sprees to 1up each other. Jesus christ man after How dried up i spent a entire week just looking around for hidden ghosts, glitching into ps exclusive strikes to grab em, bloody killing 500 ogres over and over took forever. But i was proud when i saw mu grimoire score had gone up, i was proud that at the end of Destiny 1 that yes i completed a chapter in my life, where i played a great game, that i met some amazing people, that i made friends or joined clans with or who are now some great RL friends that i hang out with on a daily basis. But This is 2017, not 2014 no longer do i have pals who will stay up till early morning hours to grind out the raid or pvp endgame because at the end of the day im grinding for a chest piece that makes my hunter have some dangling string over his chest, im no longer grinding to the perfect roll on the ill will, il get my reward same as any trials guy, by handing in tokens. Not to say D1 rng was the greatest, but at least it made playing the damn nightfall over and was worth it to me to get a different roll on my weapon or armor. And see now i have rambled alot when all i really wanted to say was, While D2 lasted me a good month of playability, the core of is game has not made it as enjoyable as i would have liked, and while i will still log in every saturday morning for xur and my engrams, i can't honestly see me playing this game like its predecessor until maybe the dlc this december comes out, then perhaps i can have another month of excitement then. Well this is MLG Fr1dge's story thanks for reading if you got this far (honestly if you have, well done my grammar and spellings were disastrous, but still thanks 4 reading) and this is me signing on D2 for a while. Peace.

BUMP UP VOTE EVERYTHING If you told 22 year old me while I was loving D1 that I would be over D2 in a month I would have laughed in your face, but it's the sad truth. I hope this game makes a comeback, but it needs so much work. The fun factor isn't there at all. Iron banner isn't the same anymore. Strikes aren't the same anymore. Replaying story missions isn't truly an option. Trials isn't the same. Crucible as a whole took about 12 steps back. Raiding just doesn't seem worth it. [u]Like that first time playing crucible and getting melted by a Vex and just going I WANT THAT[/u] It's gone. It's all gone. I don't play with too many people, but I have 3 or 4 who RELIGIOUSLY played D1 and they're all bored and onto the next game. Just glad I didn't buy in and get the Expansion pack. Balls in your court Bungie. Now you'll have to earn it.

Well said, my exact thougts. Except one problem you didn't list is how they punish people for having 3 characters of the same class. I get they want you to play all classes but I never used my warlock or hunter in D1 and was planning on having 3 titans for D2. Hope you get the job, maybe well have someone who can save destiny

Yeah, D2 Sucks

I’m pretty sure you could have kept going past 35 but good start. Hope you get the job so you can save Destiny!

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776 The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury: For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences: For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments: For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends. We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

Enjoy your Shaders, Guardian. And Bungie thanks you for your $60.

“It’s crazy to me that Trials isn’t even hard” ........ Teach me master!!!

BTW, you should check out what the Seasons bring to the game.

How can a sequel be worse than it’s predecessor?? Seriously, there is nothing to do! Log on. Stare at my ship in orbit. Log off. Play D1 instead and actually have fun instead of being bored senseless 😴😴

Bungie has trolled an entire Destiny fan base with Destiny 2.

Buying this game and uploading it onto the Xbox I couldn't wait. But even the beta got boring quick. I remember my brother asking if d2 was worth getting and I said yeah course it is there is so much to do..... Then I got to max light and quickly realised half the stuff to do is irrelevant. I have now got the remastered dragons dogma game and haven't even bothered with destiny. It lasted just under a month for me. D1 lasted years I always came back to it. It's a shame. The lost sectors are a waste but a good idea. Why not make 1 of those heroic a week or something. Nightfall timers are ok but tbh people like to solo these things and not rush them. Prestige raid. Lol I'm not even bothering with it tbh. I agree with alot of people when they say this game is guna die quickly.
