[quote]Yeah. Since we're asking destiny to be more like Bl3, Then they can reduce the bank to 20 spaces and ask you to purchase upgrades to bring it to 50, remove avenues to guaranteed purples/powerfuls/golds, remove infusion (but cores are a problem because they're [very debatably] marginally too expensive, right?), remove masterworks, remove mods, remove armor, reduce the postmaster to 5 items with the option to buy 5 more slots. Sounds like a much better game, no? You must believe that sounds better.[/quote] I’m not talking about Destiny being more like Borderlands in that sense. I’m talking about going in the direction of Borderlands in the sense of... *Not removing Content we Pay for. *Time Gating every Activity, ever piece of Loot and Cosmetic Items and Weaponizing FOMO. *Having no Battle Passes. *having no MTX like they have now and be more like Crazy Earle and get rid of Silver and keep Brightdust as the only currency and unable to buy cosmetics with Silver etc. That’s what I’m talking about. [quote]To be clear, I'm playing and loving borderlands 3. I'm already out of stuff to do but I'm not dumb enough to jump on my pedestal and start shouting "TrAaShH" because of that. I like the game and don't actually think it's bad. I absolutely do believe that there are some things destiny could learn from it, just the way that there are absolutely some things that BL3 could learn from destiny. However, it's amazing how people will judiciously criticize destiny for a thing, but straight up refuse to apply that criticism to any other game. If we're going to nitpick small shit about destiny, and blow that up as if it means that the game I TrAsHhHhH, then do it to every other game as well.[/quote] I highly doubt you’ve run out of things to do. There are 4 Characters to play through the Campaign with and getting them all ready for the DLC coming up. And I’m not saying Destiny is trash, I think it’s awesome as a Looter Shooter, I just think them going the way of World of Warcraft is trash. The whole “had to be there when” is trash cause if leaves people to feel that if they don’t put in Streamer Hours or takes a break from the Game due to life, that they will miss out on a lot story wise and loot wise as well and making the game to be played as a Career/Full Time Job rather then a Game that lets the player play the game on THEIR own schedule, not around the games schedule. Bungie is turning Destiny into a glorified Mobile Game with it’s Time Gates and Monetization System. That’s all I’m saying. I love Destiny in it’s current state and if it was staying this way, I’d stay, but since it’s not, I sadly have to dip and play games that work around me rather them me around it.

[quote]That's true. Although d1 didn't have annual passes. They gotta make more content now because of them. That content can be better though[/quote] IMO it's not about how many employees you have, it's about how many of them are actually willing to put that effort into creating whatever game. Having extra content like the Annual Pass wasn't the issue, the issue was that there wasn't really any actual loot worth chasing nor enough of it vs cosmetics.

This "poor Bungie needs to make money" doesn't work anymore so why even bother? case and point, they did just fine before Destiny and even in D1 Eververse, wasn't anywhere near as bad as it is now and they actually updated the game like the other vendors ever DLC. Tell me what they have actually updated in 2 years other then Eververse?

[quote]Dude I played Warframe and made tons of money (can't remember currency name) from people who spent real money in the game. Warframe is technically "free to play" but unless you want your upgrades to take forever you either A) take advantage of ppl who spent real money who want to spend way more than they should on event mods or B) spend money to speed up the progress Warframe is an awful game that I couldnt bear to play for more than a month because the grind is real. Props to the dev team for all the free content but ppl spent a ton of real money to make that happen[/quote] It’s called “Platinum “ (currency). As for the Platinum, I’ve noticed it’s actually an interesting take on it.: The company charges money for Platinum Platinum can be used to buy gear outright from the store (time saver method) Platinum can be used to “barter” with other players for rare blueprints especially parts that have been “vaulted” (no longer available). This gives an avenue actually for the heavy grinders to technically make money while still helping out those who missed out on gear or have time constraints (as the game is extremely grind heavy). Mostly (about 90% I’m guessing) you can acquire everything from playing without spending a dime. And for the things you can’t you can earn platinum by farming certain rare items that fetch a decent price.

I think what people want is d1's model back, sure there were content droughts but what we got once it eventually released was great. that's what I would like back. maybe bungie could do with paying 300 employees to make crap for eververse instead of 600.

Good point, even though I'm one of those people who is probably only going to play PvP (as per usual). But I realize that I'm technically contributing to the game in other ways, like being cannonfodder in PvP, a.k.a. keeping PvP population numbers up. ;P [quote][quote]Free to Enter[/quote] One of the best summarizations I've saw yet. Bad part is it's "free to play" if you only play pvp and don't want any new pinnacle weapons. PvE players pay for expansions, exotics, pinnacles; and then have Eververse aimed straight at them with ornaments, sparrows, shaders, and ghosts. They should make Eververse a market for pvp stuff since you don't have to pay anything to play pvp, instead of trying to make pve players make up for lost revenue and pay for everyone else.[/quote]

it's not unplayable, lol. I play every night and it only stutters every now and then. something wrong with your console

Borderlands 3 is sooooooooo good!
