I would like you to look at how DE ‘manage’ and interact with their community.
Then compare it to the dated, stuffy, laboured and slow way that Bungie interact with the Destiny community. Then start a program of change to modernise and expand the interaction.
I would like Bungie to focus on the majority of the community that occupies the middle ground between the handful of hours a week players and the streamers that play as a job.
I would like a dedicated Fanfic section of the forum. It is not lore. However people put a lot if effort into some of it and it deserves its own, proper, home.

The difference is that Digital Extremes actually care about their product, and realise that without the mutual respect for & from the gamer-base, there wouldn't be a Digital Extremes studio

Hopefully now that Bungie are independent they’ll come to realise the same thing.

I don't know how Bungie forgot, esp. considering their whole schtick as a game dev was 'not being like the suits' (paraphrase, but accurate). It's the reason they often give for why they partner up with larger, corporate publishers only to fall out with them eventually, so clearly it's a part of the Bungie corporate identity, yet it isn't really reflected in how they interact with the community of ... I would have called them 'Bungie fans' once, but I think we tend to identify now more as 'Bungie customers', because that's how we're being treated now, as means to ends, not as the ends themselves.
