Hello. I'm a new player, started with Destiny 2, and I liked the game overall. And now, since factions live, I've had my first disappointment. Now let me explain what do I mean. You can pledge only to one faction, so I've started researching about them. But, the only info I've found is a tiny (3 lines) paragraph about every faction, and 3 grimoire cards, each about one faction. And based on the this Intel, how am I supposed to make a choice? I've asked my clan mates who played the first game, and they confirmed, that after 4 years this is what we know about them. Picking faction based on popularity (to get discount) or gear seems so stupid to me. For example in Mortal Combat X everyone went to the first faction for two reasons: 1. Everyone pressed A in the beginning of the game, and by default went to the first faction. 2. Other saw how many people in the first faction (which means they will win every week no matter what), and went for it. This ruined factions mechanics in MK X. Now I can see the same thing can happen in Destiny 2. Based on the forums, Dead Orbit going to win no matter what, simply because they have more players. I've even asked few people why did you choose to go with this faction, and the answers was "cuz they have nice shaders/armor" or "cuz dead orbit have too many players". But what about lore? What about smart choices? No one even looks at the small paragraph about them on wiki. I can see the other angle, this game all about loot, but then why do you even bother to write small trivia about them if don't want to? The solution could be hiding all the gear until the end of the factions war, and write more backstory about them. Otherwise it's just a joke to get more loot called factions. Hope you will get this feedback, and reply. Sincerely, your Guardian)))
