[b][u]ATTENTION BUNGIE:[/u] The fact that a negative post like this is getting such positive attention on the fan forum site shows a lot about the state of the game. Understand this: we are unhappy and you're losing players.[/b] #MakeDestinyGreatAgain
I think I'm done with Destiny.... Not completely, but I find myself hardly ever playing anymore. I'm more interested in finding something better to play. Been on some Rocket League and Sunset Overdrive lately.
The game is just so [i]boring[/i] now. There's nothing I want to do. I'll get on for some PvP now and then, but PvE is where my heart lies, and it's all garbage ever since TTK dropped.
[i][b]Nightfalls are an absolute joke.[/b][/i]
Remember what nightfalls used to be? Omnigul with arc burn, angry, and lightswitch. Triple burn Devils lair. That shit was so much fun. And wayyyy more intense with the danger of getting kicked to orbit. And since 3oC didn't exist, it was one of the only reliable ways to get exotics. Now it's just a glorified heroic strike at best.
[i][b]Kings Fall is blah[/b][/i]
Idk what it is.... Technically the raid is well made, especially compared to Crotas End. But there's just something undesirable about it to me. Maybe it's the fact that it's literally the same mechanic over and over and over, or maybe it's the fact that the gear is utter garbage, or maybe it's the fact that it's easy, yet the mechanics prevent you from undermanning the entire raid, or maybe it's the fact that ads don't even play a factor in the raid, or maybe it's a combination of these things. Either way, I don't care about running KF, ever. I still run VoG for fun.
[b][i]New PoE is an embarrassment[/i][/b]
I know most people didn't care for PoE in Y1, but I loved it. It was so intense! It was the most fun solo activity (my greatest achievement was soloing Qodron), and held the most well made and most challenging boss battle in Skolas. I was soooo excited for CoE. What a -blam!-ing joke. 3 rounds. No objectives during boss battles. The point system is not difficult or dynamic whatsoever. Easy as hell modifiers. I soloed the entirety of CoE at 309 light for crying out loud, with a score of 37k. Haven't completed an elder sigil since week 1 because the activity is too boring.
[i][b]End game loot could not be worse[/b][/i]
What the hell happened to the end game loot? Remember Fatebringer and VoC and oversoul edict and black hammer and HoC and corrective measure? And, oh yeah, [b]FCKING GJALLARHORN[/b]. God damn the end game gear was soooooo desirable!! Yes it was a bit OP in PvE content, but God dammit, it's [b]END GAME![/b] You should feel a bit OP. Now, the raid gear has random rolls, so they don't feel iconic anymore. Sure Atheon's Epilogue was awful (IMO), but at least it was unique because of the static perks! Now the raid gear is just more random legendaries with randomized perks that may or may not be good.
The best weapons are literally obtained from the gunsmith for 2500 glimmer and waiting for a good roll, or by just going to the vendor. And even those leave something to be desired. Exotics don't even feel like end game anymore, because most of them have been nerfed, and with 3oC, they drop like candy. Nothing is special. Everyone has everything.
[i][b]Everything about the game is a slap in the face[/b][/i]
Seriously. This just becomes more obvious the more I play.
•SBMM
• invisible walls to prevent exploring
• low currency caps
• PvP nerfs that affect PvE
• microtransactions
• Lazy content rehashed updates
• Cringeworthy storyline and dialogue
• Nerfs to popular but balanced weapons to force grinding for new gear
• Irrelevant content
• The special ammo nerf
• No dedicated servers
• Predetermined PvP match victors
I could go on, but I won't. The point is, with each update, I feel more and more forced to play their way instead of my way. Content is constantly being dumbed down. Nothing is challenging, nothing is OP, it's all just bland now. It's just a grind fest, and now there's nothing good to grind for. Most of you will call me a loser for bitching, but that's ok. Some will sympathize with me. I'll stick around on the forums because I like it, but I just don't like destiny anymore.
[spoiler]The sad part is, I wish I wasn't done with Destiny. I still want to play the game that it used to be. I just feel like they taking it away bit by bit.[/spoiler]
Edit: Holy shit there's a lot of replies. Definitely didn't expect this. Sorry if I don't reply to you, I'm trying to reply to as many as I can, but I can't keep up!

Agree 100% with everything. Great post.

1 RespuestaEditado por No Weyloran: 5/21/2016 10:58:53 PMMe and my big long sparrow both agree. PVE player at heart and it is super boring now compared to year 1. I hate pvp in this game so much, I'd rather play cod's pvp
-
Agree with everything except for the KF part. Its still really fun
-
Right now for me it's kind of a filler game in-between releases of other games. I'll probably start playing it more again soon and definitely once the new dlc is on its way and released.

2 RespuestasEditado por PhantomLink: 5/21/2016 10:47:22 PMMy issue with Kings Fall is how specific the mechanics have to be, where everyone has to do a specific task and if one person screws up everybody is screwed. The beauty of VoG was everybody had a job to do but their failures or inabilities could be covered by good players. Now everybody just gets mad and leaves after one mistake. It puts everybody on pins and needles, I should be fighting the raid boss not my teammates.
-
I took a break from the game last fall after I realized TTK was exactly how you described. I recently returned and not much has changed. I second this motion. Bring it back Bungie.
-
Sorry but for 1... tl;dr Second, sorry dude but no, just because a post like this on forum got support definitely [u][b]DOES NOT MEAN[/b][/u]That they should do anything yet, sorry to burst your bubble sport.

My favourite time was in House of Wolves when you could do any activity and get great rewards and all year was useful thanks to infusion. Although it was too easy to get 34! And where the hell are exotic bounties? I freaked out when I got my first one for thorn I grinded for so long to get it and it was FUN!
-
1 RespuestaIt's not that it's boring, the game is just broken as shit.
-
2 RespuestasIt's just really stale, and I try to play crucible to make up for that but I get paired with blueberries while the other team has an actual decent team I just want to play crucible not flawless carries [spoiler]i've never been flawless nor will I try, I'm just trying to make a point[/spoiler]
-
Agreed, for the most part haha
-
The April update lasted a week for me. I was a hardcore player till like December. This game is truly dead to me until we get some REAL content not this reskin garbage.
-
Im waiting for overwatch, and Im not even playing destiny while I wait. Checking the forums after weeks to see whats new. Dont get me wrong. I love destiny. But it went stale for me. Im not even motivated to get to 335 (im 334).
-
3 RespuestasHaha its hitting you just now ? -blam!- the majority feels it day 2 after whatever content they release. They cater to casuals that play 2 hrs a week ... meanwhile everyone else finishes content right away. Then they feed us the same shit but in reverse. Most people with a brain left long ago
-
Very well written. Not another crybaby so I respect it. I agree with some of it too.
-
Some very good points
-
1 RespuestaJust rolled VoG with some randoms off LFG... they were fun guys and we finished reasonably quick. It was a refreshing experience.
-
After 3 months of SBMM, I had to quit this game in disgust. I'm hoping for Bungie to wake the -blam!- up and do a major overhaul of this game so I can come back.
-
1 RespuestaThis game is a year and half old now, how long did you honestly expect this game to be fresh for? These are all valid concerns but seriously, even if it was just how it used to be, you'd still get bored eventually.
-
2 RespuestasIf this post is about not having VoG weapon and ghorn as well as Ice Breaker please go ahead and stop playing. PVP is the bane of this game and would be better off being left behind for the sake of the main content this game is supposed to be centered around. seriously how much time/resources goes into pvp that could have been put somewhere useful. I mean when was the last time you heard pvp and there wasn't something negative somewhere following close by. Multiple things your complaints center around are pvp only or happened as a result of exclusively reasons. Last gen also held things back and that was for profit and that was something that should have been expected. As for those rehashed FREE updates remember they didn't have to give you anything or rather they could have charged you for it. Micro-transactions suck but they could be MUCH MUCH worse than they are now. I get not being into the game at this point but make sure your accounting for all sides of the coin. giving some concessions would get you much better reception because it shows you have considered the opposite perspective.

2 RespuestasEditado por Taken By Trees: 5/20/2016 2:48:54 PMThe game has been dead since three months after TTK. I can guarantee you there are less than a million concurrent users left. Year 1 players are an endangered species. The people left playing are people who jumped in late and haven't realized what a joke this game is yet.
-
2 RespuestasKing's Fall's problem is the weaponry, IMO. Remember VoG? All guns came on PvE God rolls. Vision of Confluence? Amazing! Atheon's Epilogue? The best roll for a PvE Auto Rifle possible. Even though ARs were shit back then. Then we have Crota's End. All weapons had decent rolls and they all had a Hive-specific perk. Abyss Defiant stunned Wizards. Song of Ir Yût and Oversoul Edict shot through Knight shields. And they all did bonus damage to Hive majors. Now we have KF weapons. They have Cocoon and Will of Light with random perks. Then there's the Hard Mode variants. Literally. The same shit. With a darker paint job. What? How bad is that? There's no impulse of getting the HM guns. Same with the armor . They could've done something cool with it, like more resistance against Taken enemies or some shit. Not saying I want the old gear back or something, hell no, it's old outdated and should not remain relevant by any means but they should not bring out amazing raid rewards first only to push out medium tier rewards in new Raids.

Every one getting sick of being no scoped

It's the truth man and has been for awhile .

The truth is... gamers like us, we love destiny as much as we hate it for all its flaws and stuf... When you hit the ground, and have no interest in destiny anymore, is time to try different games... but, you will be back, so I am. But, as soon as some other real open world, mmo, rpg comes ... well, I will see you there, but definitely not destiny 2 or any other destiny one expantion, to bad we dont have good options yet.
