[quote]You guys cannot seem to get a seasonal activity right. Most players have hated every single activity you have released for years at this point (minus the coil). Honestly, if you just mimic the menagerie, or just copy and paste it right back into D2 with some new flair - you would get praise. Menagerie worked so well. The loot was able to be targeted, while still maintaining RNG through random perks. But at least we didn’t keep getting weapons we didn’t want. We felt like we were in some sort of control of our loot, while still needing to grind for it. Then, the gameplay. It was pretty fast paced, none of this minutes on end of running around looking for materials and chests and looking for enemies. And the encounters felt unique and enjoyable, so we actually didn’t mind grinding a little bit for a god roll.[/quote] It would not be fun right now. They took me it and made variations of it for 3 plus years in the form of various seasonal activities. It got old. They need to do more stuff like nether, where the way you play is entirely different to other activities.

Even if they brought menagerie back, it would have a Grandmaster contest ultra sweat mode as the only option with decent drops just so the streamers have something to brag about being better at than the regular players.. Imo the main issue isnt the activities we get nowadys itself, its the attitude behind them. Bungie tried turning this casual fun pve looter shooter into budget dark souls. And thats simply not fun. turn brain off and grind for rolls was fun. Now you have to wear gaming socks while drenching your gaming chair in sweat in every single activity. Not my cup of tea anymore sadly. Menagerie, forges and old dungeons were so popular because they were farmable. Nowadays activities are so unfun, that im over running them before even finishing them once. I used to have hundreds of clears on old dungeons, now i dont even try the new ones. Not cause i cant do them, just because they are not designed to be fun but just challenging instead.

TLDR - No, Wrath of the Machine

My main complaint with this franchise and the top item that kills my excitement for post-expansion content & the desire to log in is the stale AF seasonal model. We’ve been doing the same ol cookie-cutter stuff every season since Shadowkeep. The only time we get meaningful fresh content with some meat on the bone is with the annual expansions.

Literally just give us old content back so we can complain about the fact it's rehashed and how Bungie doesn't try to reinvent the wheel. Yay 🥳

Menagerie wasn’t as good as people remember

That won't work. People are so tired of Bungie just bringing back old content, that no matter what it is the majority seem to spite them for even considering it. Even if it was something that was once loved like Menagerie, people will just complain that Bungie should have invested in something new.

Coil and menagerie were boring.

Menagerie was a -blam!- fest, only thing fun about it was the Legend version and doing the triumphs for Shadow Bungie hasn't released a genuinely fun Seasonal activity since Escalation Protocol

Damn I miss the coil lol
