Correct me if I'm wrong because I have no problem with that and will stand corrected if I am. This is what Barrett said after y1 Dawning was over. https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46567 [quote]Eververse [b]We recognize that the scales are tipped too far towards Tess at the moment, and Eververse was never intended to be a substitute for end game content and rewards. So, we’ll be making three changes for upcoming "Seasons:"[/b] We’re shifting the balance of new content in favor of activity rewards over Bright Engrams. This includes adding Ghosts, Sparrows, and ships (to date found only in Bright Engrams) to achievement reward pools. [b]We'll provide a gameplay path to earn Bright Engrams and (all contained rewards including Event Engrams).[/b] We’ll give players more direct purchase options and make adjustments to Bright Engrams to allow players to get the items they want more often[/quote] Now, they offered a path after the event but, no one really had any interest because once the event was over it went back to the old duplicates that Tess was handing out like candy. Sure, they fixed it, but that was after the fact of them being silent the entire time riding the event out. So knowing the quote above and what has taken place with Solstice. If I'm correct, isn't Barrett basically saying "we've learned from our mistake and we will do better from here on out" and that Bungie went back on their word of what they said they would be doing for [b](future events,)[/b] you know, event engrams? Edit: Or is this another case of "accidentally tipping the scale again" and let's go silent for the entire time this new event that starts Tue? Edit 1. Oh, and tell Bungie I said thanks for the reskinned weapon form Warmind for this event. As if there isn't enough reskinned content as it is.

    My daughter works for a company, and her client is Tesco (big food retailer in the UK) and her job is to find issues with rival companies planning permission near Tesco outlets. They know it's futile but if they delay a store opening for even 6 months it's worth millions to them. Same here, once every year they introduce an aggregious eververse system that's way too far, then claim to listen to feedback and change it so it's better. They make a killing in the season it's broken and the make a killing next season when it appears better, they even get thanked for it. It's mind games.

    Too bad there isn't a job to find issues for companies like Bungie, they would have been shut down years ago. As far as what Bungie does with Eververse, they will adjust things as you said until Dawning, but what I don't get as far as being a business they're not too bright. Sure, there make money with these little games they play but not as much as they could be if they actually use their brain. So I'm actually laughing at them for being so stupid as a business. I mean, look at the post-DMG posted. "Your story"... Just that alone shows how out of touch this company is with their community knowing how bad the last 6 months have been and how upset the community has been about the lamest changes they have ever made Destiny's history. This company is so bright that it's like them going to a prison and asking the inmates who want to play patty cake 🤦‍♂️

  • I remember mtashed doing a video after the summit 2 years ago, the one organised by Activision to save the game. When he's serious his vids are on point, and he said he was really honest and when a dev asked him about his main issues, he said he told them 99% of the loot in the game was straight garbage, and he said the dev was absolutely gutted, almost in tears and couldn't understand why. I guess they'll never see it from a viewpoint of someone who plays a lot. But they do seem kinda clueless in lots of ways.

  • I remember hearing about that, and here it is that Bungie hasn't done much better that It's like all the devs that created D1 left this company. So now there are the new ones like these singers that think they are great at singing that perform on Amarics got talent, but right off the bat, they get the buzzer. Maybe they should go play D1 so they can actually learn how to create a decent loot system.

  • I think it's very very obvious that a huge amount of the studio are now working on the new non destiny game, and destiny is heavily suffering. Remember in D1 when we got the live team, bcoz everyone was working on D2, well like that only unlike last time they had things to work with. This time they've reskinned everything they can, and they've run out of cuttings left from D1. Shadowkeep is like a D1 dlc, only twice the price, it's not bad but it's more house of wolves than taken king. And the seasons are like D1 free events, only this time we get charged. Things like age of triumph were free and bigger than season of the drifter for example. I totally get it, they've lost staff, they've a new game coming out, they need money, but currently they're asking for too much (more than D3 would cost for SK n 3 seasons), and giving far too little, its all bungie bungie bungie and we get very little back. Everything feels like token gestures. Even things like bungie bounties are done badly. If you don't live in Seattle you're screwed. Why not have a twitter lottery, pick random names worldwide and invite them on stream. It's such a good game, being managed so badly.

  • There are a lot of reskins from D1. D1 did have them as well but at least Bungie was coming up with unique designs for them and new weapons as well. Now they are just pushing them out half-baked just to say they created weapons.

  • Did you see dmgs Reddit post. Basically said there's no nightfall loot bcoz the only have enough resources to give a certain number of things unique loot. This time they chose the 3 pinnacle guns over nfall loot, n put upgrade materials in the nfall to give it worth. Also claimed eververse is totally separate n no loot is taken from the game n put into eververse. Totally ignoring the moon strike sparrow that's in eververse, but the moon strike has no loot. Also ignoring the fact that they used to produce more loot, Inc eververse and strike and nightfall and vendors. Now we get a huge amount of eververse and 3 pinnacle guns in-game. I don't know if they believe the shit they spout

  • Well said. And wtf did happen to event engrams? How tf are we supposed to acquire any of these event items without engrams. Bright dust, and oh yeah, real money......

  • We weren't supposed to and the season of the undying nostalgic engrams for the season of the undying is rigged. In other words, they are items that are picked so there are no event rewords through them either. I know some don't like me saying the things I do, but this company has become disgusting with their rigged system. This isn't the Halo Bungie, this is the new micro Bungie taking away the manpower that is needed on this game and the higher-ups put them on their new micro IP.

  • I imagine whatever Bungie says regarding the game design and features is A: To put out whatever fire is raging at that particular time, and B: Subject to change after everyone forgets.

  • [quote]I imagine whatever Bungie says regarding the game design and features is A: To put out whatever fire is raging at that particular time, and B: Subject to change after everyone forgets.[/quote] Yep! Last year we got the "Go fast" update. This year, with Shadowkeep, we got the "Nah, eff that, time to be tickle-terrors again" update. It doesn't bother me too much, now that I just downloaded the "Have a lot more fun playing The Outer Worlds" update 😉

  • I'm loving Outer Worlds! It takes all the best aspects from Fallout with a Borderlands vibe going on. Gonna quit grinding D2 for a few weeks to finish that game.

  • And for what it's worth, I feel like there's also a very good "Mass Effect" vibe going on as well. From companions to exploring different planets, it's definitely a breath of fresh air and very entertaining.
