Dear Bungie Team, I’m writing this as a long-time fan who truly cares about Destiny 2 and wants to see it thrive. The new power system is not just frustrating—it’s demoralizing. Grinding 450 power levels every six months, only to be permanently underpowered in almost every activity, makes progression feel meaningless. You’ve added a new armor/weapon tier system (T1 to T5), but then locked the highest tiers (T4 and T5) behind content that forces us to play at a -40 to -50 power disadvantage. This creates a punishing cycle: We need better gear to survive high-difficulty activities, but we can’t get that gear without suffering through those activities first. That’s not challenge—that’s a punishment loop. What's worse: even “normal” difficulty starts at -10 power, so no matter how hard we grind, we never feel powerful. The entire identity of Destiny as a power fantasy is being undermined. Please consider: Removing power scaling from standard/normal content. Letting players feel the benefits of their grind. Making progression meaningful again—not a reset treadmill. Allowing us to gradually access T4 and T5 without forced penalties. We love this game, but this system doesn’t feel respectful of our time or effort. Destiny should reward dedication, not suppress it. Sincerely, A Guardian who wants to feel powerful again.
