Yo. During covid etc EVERYONE has had an unsurmountable amount of additional time to grind in games and Destiny has been one, especially with the season pass, and weekly directives, to keep people entertained and busy during it. And for me, Destiny has been a godsend to me to get me through it whilst im away from family and friends, I love the lore and the action - even though sometimes I get insanely frustrated. But as things somewhat normalize in the world and people are going back to the unfortunate hustle of balancing work and life, it is apparent, especially with the release of Master VOG. [b]That if you don't have the time to invest in an INSANE amount of grinding then you're locked out of content[/b]. How is that fair for those that cannot invest the same amount of time that they did during covid? or don't play Destiny for a career as a streamer or content creator? 1350 power cap in content requires an exponential amount of Destiny game time which is a huge expectation on the player base as you pretty much solely have to play Destiny to be at that point for Master VOG release. And I am assuming that as new seasons come out the power cap rises, requiring another huge grind. I want to enjoy Destiny in the future when the world is open again, not feel chained to one game in order to feel like I can play all parts of it. The grind is becoming too much. For things like this... [b]***EDIT***[/b] [i]Lots of people saying 'this is just one thing' or 'it isnt that hard'.... Well that wasn’t and is not the purpose of the post, the Master VOG is an example how much effort and grinding it will take for your light level to be effective in specific activities, regardless of what they are. It is a big undertaking and also considerable investment into ONE game, for you to take part in such activities. Considering the world opening up and what I can imagine, a lot of the player bases time being diverted back to 'normality'. It feels simply inaccessible in a 'normal' world.[/i] [b]***EDIT 2***[/b] I myself am light level 1340+ across 3 characters because I have been able to grind. And I’ll be trying my hand at Master VOG soon. So this has nothing to do about moaning for content I cannot play. It’s about the wider player base and those who aren’t in positions to dedicate what little game time they have to one game that demands your grind. [b] I’m not saying everything should be so easily accessible. But it shouldn’t be so narrowly set that a minority can really be the ones to accomplish more end game[/b]
