Still no focus on quality of life!

Even after all this time I'm still amazed at where Bungie focuses their effort and attention. With all the issues making the game undesirable and frustrating to so many Bungie decided to make our ghosts pretty and customizable vs. addressing any of the issues that could greatly improve the quality of life in the game. Sure it's neat to get more use out of our ghosts but that should not have taken priority over any of the known issues that are killing the game experience. I've been around since the beginning but it still blows my mind at the complete lack of focus on the players. The game itself is a visual masterpiece and for the most part the playability is good but the over all player experience and communication is horrific!

    bungie is completely out of touch with its player base and they're all about play our game how we tell you to. a bug comes up that helps players - patched in days if not hours. bug that hinders players - we'll get around to it next month... maybe. players really like these weapons and abilities sooooo we nerfed them into the ground and gave other weapons and abilities a minuscule buff (if any) players have been screaming about enhancement cores so here is an update to how shaders look in your inventory, you're welcome. players have been screaming about sunsetting so here is an update to ghost shell customization (which just adds to the grind and may make ghost help you in gameplay ever so slightly) and don't forget all the new cosmetics we added to eververse, gotta get those sweet sparrows, ships, and ornaments while you can because they will be gone next season and there is no way to get them from actually playing the game.

  • Bungie doesn’t do QoL. They want to increase your login time. Not actual playtime.

  • By adding power to Ghosts, I'm predicting Bungie is also going to silently apply sunsetting to them in order to push more players to Eververse.

      • lookie here my dude! its muh ghost! its the bread and butter of the world along with eververse. that is the quality of life to Destiny, in fact, that is the Destiny of Destiny. Destined to worry about some stupid azz shell from a giant golf ball that sharts out a ghost that wakes ppl up from their peaceful eternal sleeps, and this weird currency that uses real money for eververse purchases. that is the penultimate goal. The darkness, that giant golf ball, Ikora's baldah head, all just a discretion. you pay eververse stuffs to shart on the quality of life of the game, then you're winning!

      • I actually like the ghost changes, and consider it a minor QOL improvement. They’re simply terrible as-is. But I’m with you, there’s a lot more (blues, postmaster, matchmaking, fire team sizing, mods, economies... sunsetting...) to go.

      • Wait you actually thought the game was going to improve? Nah, man. Bungie has to keep trying to adjust their game so that it can last ten years, so anything they do to remove content is probably to cut down a little bit on the load they keep cramming onto old outdated servers. On top of the servers being outdated, the game engine is also outdated as well as graphics. These won't improve unless they made a new game, which they decided not to do. Keep expecting bugs, error codes, or things acting buggy or not working as they actually intended, as now they have to constantly maintain this archaic game and try to keep it running for ten years. The reason they can't make a whole lot of new content is due to the constant maintenance and upkeep. Bungie could have started from Forsaken and Shadowkeep as a new game of Destiny 3. Which could have meant no sunsetting or vaulting as they would have only had new content and a new game to work with, so less old recycled weapons and already less locations at the start, but for some dumb reason Bungie decided not to, so here you are. Now go ahead and decide what you will play, if you are ok with where the game is keep playing, if not don't, no one is forcing you to pick up that controller. Have a wonderful day, folks 😎

      • Well for a start you didn't say what quality of life improvements you would like to see, you just repeated yourself. Next, how do you know the ghost changes heve taken priority over anything? They are just telling us about changes on a weekly basis leading up to Beyond light.

      • Ghost Mods do greatly improve QoL. Maybe not for you because the perks don't matter to you specifically, but thousands of players have wanted this since shadowkeep.

        • I thought ghosts 2.0 ARE a quality of life change? And one that these forums in particular asked for too. Ghosts 2.0 hurts literally nobody, is free, and is a change that I wasn't expecting at all. This post is kinda just proof that you guys will complain about anything.

          • There are seven weeks before Beyond Light drops. Bungie is going to focus on one new feature each week, dropping us breadcrumbs along the way. Here are the TWABs I believe will happen in the next seven weeks (in no particular order): Sandbox changes (hopefully both PvP and PvE in the same TWAB and not split into two) Crucible maps Strikes Gambit changes Planetary materials/economy changes Festival of the Lost Exotic quest/catalyst changes in more detail I don't believe they will address anti-cheat because Bungie themselves don't know how to solve it. This has been a recurring pattern to drip-feed us information in the weeks leading up to major expansions. So to all the people complaining right now as to why Bungie is not talking about the "important" stuff, just wait. Bungie has seven whole weeks to disappoint you.
