Maybe that streamers summit wasn't a good idea after all

I like how all the YouTubers and Streamers are glossing over the fact that Escalation Protocol wasn't originally going to be as tough as it is now. And it's only ridiculously hard now because they told Bungie to make it so. They're all behaving like they had nothing to do with the decision at all. In one of his video, Unknown Player was like "Bungie need to change EP, as it is now it is unsustainable". Ya think?! If all the suggestions they made to Bungie are in the same vein, the Comet expansion is going to be "interesting". EDIT: Yes, yes. You're all super good and breeze through any activity Destiny has to offer. Well done. I'm not a special snowflake, ok. I'm a middle aged guy who plays D2 to unwind. I don't mind the difficulty, I actually enjoy difficulty in video games. But this is Destiny, not -blam!-ing Dark Souls. Difficulty is one thing but if you need 9 guys at max light to complete something, maybe that thing is a tad too hard for a AAA game who's designed to be "a hobby". Just saying. I know I'm way too low to complete EP, and I'm grand with that. I actually like the grind and I'm perfectly happy leveling up organically and bite my time until I can attempt it. I'm also a bit sick of being pinged by randos, asking me to invite their mates so I can promote them to FT lead and bugger off. That wasn't my point though. My point was that EP is hard - maybe too hard - and streamers now have the gall to whinge about it even though they were the ones who asked Bungie to make it harder. I just dread to think what advice they gave Bungie about the Comet expansion. Because right now, on the advice front, we're 0 for 1. As you were.

  • What gets me is that, Bungie added questlines in the game that need EP to be completed. They also made the game harder to level up for most people and made EP an endgame activitiy... None of this has any synergy whatsoever. I'm not sure why Bungie thought it was a good idea to put an end game activity in a public space with 0 matchmaking, knowing full well what it would take to complete it. If anything the first wave or two should be near the soft cap. Cuz for this next step of Nascent Dawn, getting 10 waves in is gonna be a chore. There's something wrong when your game feels more like a chore than a fun experience, and people have to jump through hoops just to play it.
