Any Burnt Out Players?
I've been away from Destiny for a few months, only getting on to see new story missions or do an odd patrol. I no longer feel that drive to do strikes or grind out Crucible to get a brand new pinnacle weapon. Anyone else feeling the burn out?
Edit: So uh this blew up. Did not expect that. In all honesty I love Destiny and I have been a fan of Bungie ever since I first played Halo 2 but recently I've lost a lot of love for Destiny as a game. I feel there's such an emphasis on the "you need to be there" mentality that Bungie is attempting to create memorable experiences by force. I first thought the season pass model would help the game but with no down time between seasons it feels like there is no time for the devs to make a proper content drop, instead resorting to a slow moving stream of content that leaves players unsatisfied and tired.

1 ReplyFor me i'm disappointed in the seasons. they weren't great last year and this year its worse with less content then before. Boring hoard modes and some armour is all thats new reallly. FOMO though, you had to be there for undying bro.

2 RepliesSame haven't touched this game in months.

1 ReplyJust do what I do; go play other games and let the content build up. I jumped in after a year and a half and have all sorts of quests and gear to collect.

Edited by Chakrams8: 2/22/2020 11:19:35 PMI started Destiny 1 maybe three months before Destiny 2, and was stoked by the sheer amount of content I could play through. All of it is still there. I can still go back and play it if I want to. I had lots of study when Shadowkeep dropped, and then as that study finished, I got to play it exactly one time, as I was thrust immediately into moving house and having no internet for three months. I'd thought I would just get back to everything and catch up on all of it when I was reconnected. 'All of it' no longer exists. I bought my season pass for full access to everything, to have only some of it, once. I got Whisper about half a year late. I still have fond memories of finally picking it up. Not being there and completing it immediately didn't make it a less magical moment. Knowing I won't be able to come back and try something later, removes whatever magic the game might have had (no, I don't have to be there) and replaces all the good vibes and excitement with apprehension and stress (so I don't even WANT to be there). I'll probably poke my head in before season end. But I'll never know what I missed. And I'll never care in a way that makes me plunge my whole life back into it. Clearly Bungie doesn't give a shit about people with other commitments.

3 RepliesI took a break for 1 year, came back with tons to do. I’d recommend doing the same.

4 RepliesI play more D1 than D2
-
The grind is worthless, the season pass drops a reworked horde mode that gets boring real quick, they are obviously struggling to make worthwhile content and the rewards are pathetic at best, why would I do a nightfall to get blues and a purple that doesn’t boost my light level, ffs bungie the power fantasy matters
-
2 RepliesHonestly starting and or getting burned out from iron banner. I hate the season 9 lock out quest. Can’t get any loot from saladhead until season 9 quest is over with. It’s getting irritating and is just not fun anymore. 😑
-
Yup burnt out and done till next season crucible is dead to me especially after running into a 6 stack of the top 10% of unbrokens in iron banner really is not helping either.
-
This is common in games that are this long. I sometimes get burned out of final fantasy XIV. Doesn't mean I won't come back and play it it just means I play other games right now. I just took a few days break just to play devil May cry 5 and took more time before that to play monster Hunter. Dude there is no shame in taking a break You don't have to play destiny day in and day out for it to be good. take a break, play something else, and then when you're ready to come back come back. Or if you're done with it no problem there are other games out there for you. Ain't no shame man. You do you

This twab has really just killed it for me. Before it I didn't do much in the game, now with this amazing TWAB, I'm rarely gonna be playing this game. I think the only positive thing that came out of this twab was literally Adaptive Autos being good. Bungie doesn't understand how their own game works. The Last Word nerf was OVERKILL as hell. But people used it because it was FORGIVING. Maybe if they made the other primaries more forgiving and less of a "since you missed that one headshot and got a body shot instead, your ttk is now gonna be 1.20 seconds," then other primaries would be used instead of people aping with special all the time.

2 RepliesYeah and thanks to a ninja I know for a fact that they and any bungie employee on the forum will censor anything talking bad about the company. They will bend the rules of their own coc to benefit themselves but actual violators get a free pass looking at you lfg.
-
Haven’t played constantly in a month. New nerfs what a surprise! Seasonal fortnight copying content is horrible. No desire to play anymore. Played some D1 again.
-
I just do some pve but it gets boring so fast, and PvP is so boring and frustrating, not fun at all. The game mode that kept D1 alive is horrible. Terrible experience. I had like a month break from the game after the season started and got burned out so fast after coming back.
-
Me i got bored so i started playing breath of the wild. People tell me it's amazing
-
Yup. I stopped playing November I believe and haven’t had the desire to play. I stopped about a week before that final vex invasion thing. Dropped the clan and can’t even muster signing in. And I was one that dropped 4000+ hours on D1. Maybe after the next larger expansion I’ll come back.
-
I quit it before Christmas, been on division 2
-
I'm taking a break that may last all of next season. next season will likely not be anything i care about, having more fun playing different games every week
-
It’s dying/dead. D3 will be the same way but in 60fps
-
Edited by RoachB0nd: 2/20/2020 10:36:00 PMI believe the same thing will happen every season and new expansion.[spoiler]the so-called fun will last for 4 or 5 weeks then the game will go stale again.[/spoiler]
-
I took almost two years off. Take a long break
-
Thank god these forums amount to the 0.0005% of the player base.
-
go ask the 17 million who has already left.
-
Lol year 3 really sucked the fun out of it for me, turned the game into a bounty simulator where all you do is bounties because if you don’t, good luck reaching rank 100 and increasing your artefact. Summer 2019 with year 2 was so much fun :(

Edited by PRIME_-LeGEND: 2/20/2020 9:29:52 PMYou can thank the loss of resources from activision for this one. Next season, bungie really has to bring new activities because the 1-2 year old (forsaken era) ones are getting very old. Im sure theyre working hard to compensate. I recommend playing at least once a week and taking breaks.

1 ReplyThe new seasonal content doesn't work well in my opinion. It just feels like a tedious grind at times.
