How can you defend Black Armory launch?
I won’t speak for anyone else, just myself.
I understand that this update was meant to drip feed content for months.
Yes, I can read.
Yes, I understood that there would be no campaign.
But, I didn’t realize that I would download the content and have absolutely nothing new to do on day 1.
I honestly don’t believe that ANYONE expected to pay and download and then head directly back into the blind -blam!-ing well to do the same old shit they’ve been doing for months.
Whether you’re cool with waiting or not, I honestly thought EVERYONE would agree that something exciting should have happened on day 1. But I guess not???
Even after Osiris I was excited to jump into Warmind to get new weapons and armor. But this... this has been the most anti-climactic dlc release ever. If a Zero excitement, wait-and-see approach is the future of dlc, I think I’ll find a new hobby.
But, please, if you support this model, tell me why. Because this is probably the worst experience I’ve ever had with a video game, and I’ve played Superman 64.
*edit: I appreciate most of the comments. I really wanted to understand how people weren’t disappointed. I can’t say I agree, but at least I understand a little bit better.
To me, day 1 of any dlc should be exciting, and this one provided zero excitement. Seems like people who expected nothing on day 1 got what they paid for. I love the excitement of new content, so this model will never be okay with me.
To the people who said I couldn’t read or I’m a deadbeat for being sad about $35... I’m sorry you missed the point, but thanks for the bumps. Much appreciated.

11 RepliesPeople that are defending the state of this launch are basically saying that they think an arbitrary grind for a bigger number on a screen is “new content”. Because that is basically what we’re being made to believe, that the grind between 600 -625 (or whatever the recommended forge level is) is new content. If the new max cap was only 630 and all actual new content was doable now (albeit harder than attaining max level) would it be any less of an expansion? No. Or alternatively, if the new max cap was 800 and you had to grind for months to be able to play the new stuff, would you say that is more content than we’ve got right now? No you wouldn’t. Light level is just an arbitrary number that offers no inherent gameplay value. There is no point releasing new content if it’s not playable on release. Bungie may as well release all upcoming seasons’ content right now, increase the light level to something silly like 2000 and then power bracket all the different seasons’ content in order so that we can only play it at the time of year they intended - once we’ve grinded the old content as needed over time. Same principle.
