Casuals cry because they can't or won't do the more difficult endgame activities, yet want the rewards for doing so. So instead of offering [i]viable [/i]ways for them to participate in those activities, such as [i]in-game lfg,[/i] a more fleshed out, less broken Guided Games, or Optional Matchmaking, they just hand it out like candy. Bungie logic.

This is by far... The dumbest community, in the entire gaming history. 😂 Also, shitiest company award for 2017-2018. 💩💩💩

I'm tempted to report you, this comparison is an insult to the monkey.

[quote]Now you're just handed max level even if you are a mentally disabled paraplegic monkey.[/quote] Did that 'kind of monkey' played this game?

Well if you read their twitters - they are all bleeding heart liberals.... The narrative fits to what happened to this game.

Not sure I agree with the way you said it but I agree. remember the only way to get max level in vanilla was VoG, had to work for your level. Now it takes a weekend or 2.

For starters, let's be clear that Destiny is as "entertainment product". That's literally what Bungie's contract says. This isn't a test of manhood or some bullshit like that. Destiny is something fun for everyone to enjoy just like any movie, TV show, song, book, play, or Disney on ice. Now let's add another layer. In-game rewards are part of the fun of Destiny. Plenty of games are fun without rewards, and the Halo games are the perfect example of this. We didn't play Halo 2 because it gave us some god tier weapon we could use against scrubs. Certainly not me, because I didn't even have a broadband connection at the time. But I digress. When rewards are added to the mix of fun then the game [i]must [/i]reward players. Look at the PS4 trophy stats for D1. They tell a story of players unable to find legendaries and exotics and quitting out of frustration. How many quit? About 80%. For OP, that means 8/10 players never saw how great he was at Destiny. And now the final layer of this cake. Incentives are good. High level rewards provide the incentive to run high level activities. If Outback Steakhouse wasn't such a good weapon, I wouldn't have gone to so much effort to obtain it. But it was just enough incentive that I wanted to do all those crazy steps. Maybe all you want is a simple Trials of Osiris emblem to show off how skilled you are. That can be a powerful incentive too. My point here is that it doesn't matter how many other people receive exotics or reach max level. What matters is whether the game provides [i]you [/i]with enough incentives to keep playing. For OP, the answer is obviously "no".

I agree with this post, but keep in mind that's what the community asked for.

Yeah this game sucks

You got the platinum yet?

Ill never forget when I lost a public event and was rewarded for it...I was like, wait what?!?! Things just went downhill from there

agreed I have not yet finished the COO story missions but am 310 light with a 320 lens as drop thanks to 2 raid lair runs. 1. How can I even enter the lair having not finished the story. 2. How can I even enter the lair at such a low light and without doing anything else related to COO. To be fair Raid Lair is the only good thing about Destiny 2 and it is nice to run with friends still even if I have nothing to do with the rest of the game.

Not only is it way too easy to get everything, there's very little to nothing that feels special and amazing when you get it. The magic is all gone.

there's no need to play the game. it feels like one of those free to play mmos thst gives you free stuff by logging in. gone are the days for bragging rights.
