The legacy of bungie for gaming history

Bungie now admitting sunsetting was a total failure and mistake they will not make again, while this is a welcome statement it took way too long for bungie to admit it. The damage to bungie credibility, the lost value taken from players, the sheer non existent story in the game for those who haven’t played everyday for the last 4 years. Of the years worth of content stripped from gamers we have received only 3 new strikes 3 crucible maps, reduced maps and reduced game modes of gambit, reduced rewards and pinnacles across the board, crummy forgettable seasonal pinnacle weapons, and old content returning costing even more of players real hard earned money. Yesterday was my 4 year anniversary of redownloading destiny 2 since I took a break after year 1 launch and having previously played d1 from launch causally. Can say with confidence I didn’t spend a single minute on the game but instead spent my precious time with loved ones and family. A plunder like this is expected that several staff members including the president step down from their roles, but you are all so lucky PlayStation bailed you out and purchased the company erasing your financial mistakes and ever dwindling player base. Let it be remembered that your company legacy will forever live on the as the company that invented Sunsetting and then regretted it. Of all the things that players or reporters will remember from this game. It will not be crow or Zavala or darkness vs light, but the first thing when asked what is something that bungie is known for it will forever be taking away content and reselling it to players at a higher price. Bungie took away beloved just to give us “adored” then to later regret that to just give us back beloved after making us pay real money for it all over again. How do you expect players to trust a company like this, that does this over and over again? You may say bungie has never been hurting and has been doing amazing this whole time. But their desperate marketing and partnerships with epic games and Sony show the world that they realized they are soon to fail on their own without someone funding their slowly less and less profitable game. All we can hope for is that bungie learns the lesson from their mistakes and uses their new capabilities to make right where they have done wrong for years. Stop telling players what you think we should want, listen to your stakeholders and customers of what we actually want. You don’t just need to impress gamers with new features but you need to rebuild credibility and trust with your fans. Like they say nothing is more inspiring than watching someone comeback from totally ruining their lives to be more successful than anyone else predicted. The gamers are watching bungie what are you gonna do with your new lease on life, repeat the same things that got you to where you were or do something new?
