Okay not going to do the: been playing since D1 this game sucks, I quit. Not really helpful. But there are some things a friend and I noticed that could really use some looking into to keep people playing. 1. Single players have to play harder and more than those with large clans. By this I mean, to increase your light level you have a very fast increase and then you plateau around 1250 because you are only able to get pinnacle gear from a small set of activities compared to non matchmade activities. You have to spend twice as much time to grind out those activities to move your lightened comparatively. 2. Where is the lore? My friend and I noticed the lore this season is interesting but, its a pretty small amount for even for the new dlc. We hope there will be more but also having it he relevant. There just isn't as much of it and we really enjoy it because it brings every character into perspective. Like right now...what on earth is ikora doing besides impersonating a statue. 3. Europa is a big circle of activities, but so is everything else. We are doing the same content over and over again with the only change being in difficulty. Why are we doing it - we gave that answer. What is the effect? Not sure yet, will we find out? Its unclear. But its do this 50 times over and over again! More variation in what we are doing would be good. With quests and even missions make it multiple steps like some already are but keep it interesting dont just make it hard, thats fun at first but after a while if its not interesting but just hard its going to be boring. 4. Triumphs are getting boring. My friend and I are completionists so we know we might be a touch more clinical of some activities but triumphs are getting too repetitive. Its not an issue with challenge level thats fine we like a challenge but! Do 40 heroic patrols on europa with a fireteam....we tried to do two and it took us two hours to just get two...we got tired of grinding patrols for hours and what we will get is just triumph points. Would be nice to see more rewards for triumphs. Make it some brigjt dust, glimmer, shaders, materials, just something that we can use in game that makes up for the grind we do. Doesn't have to be anything spectacular but at least worth the time put in. Look at other successful MMOs see what they do. They reward the time spent. 5. Grinding for better stat armor.... My personal pet peeve has been this, I play every night after work. I get thousands of pieces of armour a month...I break it all down or infuse it because higher stat rolls are so ridiculously rare that for the last year of playing I can count on my hands the number of better stat gear I got. One friend has gear that is about to be sunset the next season and for the past year she has yet to see anything better. This is making people very frustrated because the point in doing the activities is the possibility of getting better things...but that hasn't happened for a very very long time. 6. Some quests are still broken! The seasonal crucible quest is a good example, some of us.cant progress it because its bugged, its been reported and still has not been fixed after months. I know budgie wants destiny to be its own unique thing as an MMO style game but it really needs to look at what works for other large MMO style games, there are things that just work! Make the grinding more worth it. Right now I can say players who played a long time are leaving, mostly because the time put into the game is not rewarding enough. I personally love the world of destiny but I also feel the game needs some changes for quality of life and game play to keep people playing. This is entirely my opinion.
