7 RepliesEdited by Corrick II: 8/30/2019 9:30:11 PMI love Destiny. I’ve played this game longer than any other video game. The core gameplay mechanics are some of the best in any FPS currently on the market. The world is fascinating and the art and sound design are incredible. I’d love it even [i]more[/i] if Bungie would stop changing progression, balance and how they deliver content [i]every other year[/i]. It’s incredibly frustrating to get used to a system only to have it be completely different in another expansion or sequel, with new names, currency, UI, power climb and whatever else Bungie decides to make up off the top of their heads. They must have a sign on the wall that says “consistency is bad”. Also the lore tabs taking the place of actual playable story is annoying. The grind is bad enough but when they remove the narrative motivation, the game is literally reduced to playing just to make a number go up.

2 RepliesAnyone who didn’t play D1 and likes FPS and space adventure will probably like Destiny 2. The problem with destiny is in the long run. The game is 5 years old, about 500euros spent by fans who have been here since day 1, yet the evolution has never happened. It did in terms of graphics, but not in terms of content, weapons, gears, environment, power, enemies... Everything is just a continuous recycle, down to the series of patches. There is no direction, just patchwork of whatever they had left in reserve. The power fantasy is gone. The raids are just ape mechanics designed for some streamers to shine as they press x in front of all of their imaginary boyfriends. The enemy AI has been upgraded with higher movement speed, nothing more. Duh. The weapons are mostly D1 downgraded recycled. Pvp is totally broken, even when I go in 1v1 with a friend in private one of us gets spawned right in front of the other or in his back. 2 players on a map and Bungie’s spawn mechanic is still broken. Hilarious. The thing is we were sold a AAA sequel. Not a cheap rinse and repeat wrapped in a beautiful middle finger with broken hit boxes, switch lagging NPCs, broken fall detectors, glitches everything, paid pinnacles... You can’t charge for a Rolls and provide a Dacia. On top of that Bungie’s managers are continuously laughing at and disrespecting users in all possible ways whilst being pretty intense scrubs without curriculum other than some university degree. Now destiny remains a great game we can all go back to once in a while, however the question is is it worth spending a lot of money on something that will just continuously recycle what we already paid and played, taking away what we worked hundreds of hours getting or simply giving it up for free to any noob coming to try the f2p, and forcing us into activities we don’t enjoy as a cornerstone of our experience, only to have us all lose it and regrind it later. Yeah right, 6k at the best of the weekend night, 500k players logging on globally. 10y world record investment franchise, with the best studios in the world assisting, and here we are 5 years into their 10y adventure. Joke.

No one enjoys constant scams except absolute idiots.

Some people take this game too personally.

I like some portions of it, some I'm indifferent on, and others, yes, I actively dislike. My hope is always that the cream of the crop not only rises to the surface, but is made note of, and expanded upon. Adding to that, figuring out other flavors of cream that are also desirable. Ideally the game is various creams, all equally enjoyable in their own right, provided personal taste lines up, and the understanding that players should not be forced into eating cream that is not to their taste, and eat type of cream being deep and rich enough to satisfy players that tend to stick to just one or two types of cream. This was really fun to write. I'm a bad person.

Edited by Cinderchar: 8/31/2019 9:08:33 PMLet’s get real. There’s a lot of people who like/love Destiny. Do you know where that group is? Not here on this forum. In fact, they don’t even know it exists. That’s your 90%. Then there’s the people who are way too into Destiny and most likely have mild to severe gaming/gambling addictions and short temper issues. Do you know where those people are? Here. They are the 10% who voice ALL the concerns — however delusional, convoluted and idiotic they can be. There are no sane, rational people on this board — maybe a few. So asking anyone here if they like Destiny is not going to get you a straight answer. You’ve been warned.

To be honest I did love it. Destiny 1 was my primary game for its entire lifespan until D2. I played a lot of D2 but I think even from the release date the game had taken a direction that kinda lost me. I played quite a bit of it still but slowly my enjoyment just kinda kept sliding away until now where I don't really even play anymore, basically just check the forums every so often to see if things have changed. (they never do btw). I think a part of my reason for drifting away from destiny is that D1 was kind of a social game for me, you could play solo but having friends made it 100% better. In D2 though, it feels like solo play is really not fun at all and having friends that play (which none of mine do anymore) doesn't really feel like it improves the game all that much. Since it seems like they are practically forcing you to be social, it makes the social interaction feel forced and not fun and organic. Another factor for me was the power creep. In D1 it seemed like there were a lot more viable ways to play and you could use whatever guns you wanted. There was a meta, but the difference between the meta guns and the more 'common' guns wasn't super large. You could beat a last word with a white hand cannon if you landed shots and played well somewhat consistently. Now its seems like the meta guns are so much more powerful that there is no way to play anything else but the meta if you want to be successful. This arms race means that if you like certain guns or certain archetypes of guns, you basically have your enjoyment and power fantasy cut in half. All in all Destiny as a franchise just went into a direction that wasn't for me anymore. There is nothing wrong with that and I don't hate the game or the devs for their decisions. But it is too bad cuz I really did like the game.

Nope. After seeing what is in store for is at PAX, I deleted the game, gave away clan foundership and cancelled my preorder. The move into the Fortnite season model, the currently poor single player experience in crucible and rampant cheating in it are more than enough for me to move on.

Loved D1 Hate D2 Love The Story/World Hate the vision that bungie has for Destiny. Just going to play D1.

1 ReplyAt this point I f-u-c-k-i-n-g hate it and am counting the days till bl3 comes out. But hey enjoy it if that's your thing.

Well yes, but actually no

Destiny has provided me with an amazing journey of nearly five years and 4,000 game hours. And even if I'm starting to move on from it, that doesn't change.

I love the gameplay. However the new season pass, removing content will most likely result in me not buying D3. Continued over monetization is destroying the industry and its gotten to the point where I no longer buy EA or Activision products. Bungie , 2k and ubisoft are edging that way as well. Soon all games will be coin op.

Yes. But being totally honest I am really getting tired of the reuse, reissue and reskinning of the entire game. Its getting very old at this point. Unless Bungie can develop a system to implement fast design changes and creations?, this game is on a dead end path. They need to do some serious work on the game engine to make it easy for devs and others to initiate changes and design new arenas. Otherwise, Destiny is dead. Bungie would also be best served as a company if it had a big management change. Not many management teams would survive as many washouts and start over from scratch as these guys have gotten.

There's a lot I like about the game collection stuff, shooting enemies, having good pvp matches (you know that rare time where you face similar or slightly better opponents). Exotic quests. I really enjoyed black armory and some of the weapon scopes are really kewl. Enjoy the enemy changes Y2 brought. What's bad is the exceeding long grindy requirements for everything, IB bounties both weekly and season quest, solstice, etc. (This should either lower them or make them lower each time you finish one character). Going back to the tower non-stop. Not having matchmaking for some of the harder exotic missions and forced matchmaking for strikes. Having to dump your gear each season is painful. Exceedingly bad drop rates for some things - It's not a big deal for me, but when the drop rates get too low I'm not down to run the content over and over. Stuff like EP and the NF. Doing 40 runs and not getting the weapon you are looking for is not worth the time in IMO? Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I used to use LFG and find groups to raid with, but now they add the "find fireteam" option that kill LFG. So now I can't really make posts like I used to in LFG. Stuff like "Need help with bla bla bla" or "Looking to do 1st run through bla bla bla". Then really need to work on something to allow us to make fireteams. I don't want to be dedicated to only playing destiny. So if they try to extend the content by making long boring requirements is prolly the main reason I might take another break from the game. Also keeping an eye out for preditory practices. This whole alacarte thing has my worried. They obviously have put a lot of time and energy into microtransactions. It seems a bit greedy to charge so much for content and then put soo much energy into microtransaction. I'm fine with them selling weapon skins, emotes, etc. but I think we should be able to look how we want and have the builld that we want, without having to send additional $$$. So I'll wait and see and hope for the best. God Bless.

Love Destiny. Dislike the team behind it. If this game is to survive then Bungie needs to release a simple planner of simple objectives to the community. Example, Step 1 - we release Shadowkeep. Step 2 - we fix crucible balancing. Step 3 - we fix exotics and classes. Step 4 - bla bla bla. Bungie claims to be more transparent but the community feels like their still unsure of Destiny's future. Microtransactions are getting more attention than actual gameplay and the community is coming forward with great ideas only to be swept under the rug unless it involves Tess Eververse.

I like punching shanks

3 RepliesD1 vet here i did enjoy the game . Now its just a dumpster fire. Didn't pre order shadow keep
-
I did until they changed the clan loot system to just random crap rather than the spacific completed loot (clan does a raid you get 1 piece of raid loot) and i liked it until cores were changed to enhancement cores and shoved into infusion costs. I hate it now because i see no actual reason to play even most of the stuff in shadowkeep is under wraps. if they return the clans reason for the reward stuff back to the way it was and remove the cores from the infusion costs AND fix all the current and earlier problems as well as rebalance everything to a good balance then i might return.

Absolutely love PvE. PvP is a dumpster fire.
