This Is Just Sad

I remember when Eververse was first introduced to Destiny under the guise of, "Funding in-game events" such as the Dawning. It was filled with neat cosmetic items that complimented the game well, and the events seemed to justify its existence. Now fast forward to 2020. We have stagnant vendors that haven't seen a full weapon refresh in over a year and armor loot tables that are just lazily recycled. Iron Banner takes it to a whole new level of making you do a lengthy quest just for old sets of armor. We have new seasonal "Content Drops" that are so laughable in size, our most recent one is a public event spanning across 3 planets. Don't forget that they are limited per season, so they evaporate afterwords. Factions have been tossed out the game for the forseeable future, because god forbid Bungie implements a simple faction system back into the game like D1 (probably because that would require them to dosh out new armor and weapons for their grand return). Eververse? Its bigger than its ever been. Hoarding any and all cool cosmetics that could serve as end game rewards or reasonable quest grinds. So surprising as we all know how hard it is for bungie to develop new content! We get dozens of new items in the cash shop, its incredible how they manage that! I know this seems like a rant and it is. But I just cant bare to see the state of the game has come to. I miss the simple vendor refresh with a new strike or 2 thrown in.

    It’s almost like we live in opposite land. Bungie first introduced Eververse to help with DLC and such. Microsoft and 343 introduced MTX with the release of Halo 5. People were pretty much cool with Eververse in the very beginning (I was) and hated the fact Halo 5 had MTX. (Guilty again) Fast forward to now and, MS and 343 did everything they said they would do with the MTX money, huge prize money was set aside for tournaments, and multiplayer maps were free for everyone, infact they made a few maps bc of the extra money. Oh not to mention MCC gets all sorts of added stuff, for free, with the base purchase of the game. Meanwhile Destiny 2 released with less multi-player game modes then the Original vanilla Destiny, and every “content drop” they have thier hands held out wanting payment while Eververse took over the Destiny universe! Complete opposite of what I thought several years ago!
