The community itself has been asking for this for quite a while, myself included. The whole issue in my mind is that it's a day late and a dollar short. Bungie invalidated all of the original content to push it's "new" expansions forcing pay to play. Everything players liked about this game became obsolete as soon as a new expansion was released. Bungie invalidated all guns and gear from year one to force diversity. Unfortunately, that isn't Bungies call. The PVE crowd uses weapons and gear it prefers and PVP uses weapons and gear they prefer. Bungie is a developer that prides itself on telling others what to do and how to do it. From a gamers standpoint, the player is controlling the action that takes place onscreen, not the developers constantly pulling the strings. When the developer gets too involved, the player base grows tired of the micro-managing and just leaves. All Bungie had to do was keep the content relevant in the first place and these issues would have never occurred.

It is lazy. Bungie withheld the old raids for an easy last ditch effort to keep our attention. The raids should have never been left behind in the first place. They had it perfect in HOW. People got pissed when there elemental primaries and old raids got left behind when TTK came out. Not to mention silver... and all the other BS pulled (You'll be throwing money at the screen, cut content and nerds). Bungie has been jerking us around for almost three years now. It's to little to late.

I haven't. We should always want NEW content. If bungie does this in D2 where all we do is play the same content but, rehashed versions of it, I will be done. That's the easy and non creative way of releasing content.

I call it shut up and take my money!

Well it is lazy. The amount of old content they've brought back is insane. At this point, it's better than nothing, but that doesn't make it great. If you think about it, nearly 3 years later, we're all getting hyped about what we did 2 years ago. About the return of Ghorn with RoI, about the old strikes coming back. Imagine playing any other game where they remove what you had, restricted what you could use, and then gave it back again with future updates.

No, it's lazy, the community just doesn't expect much from them anymore, so they ask for the bare minimum.

It is lazy, fair enough bringing the stuff back but it could have added something new too

Meanwhile, they could've kept all raids relevant over time, and added meaningful new content in addition to that. Their patches and updates go like this: new content -> strip you of almost everything you had and take away all the activities you used to do -> slowly feed you back what you had before and call it "new" All they had to do all along was bring everything forward as we went along, while simultaneously adding new stuff. Then we would already have this update and nobody would be marketing it as "new". It is 100% lazy. Bungie figured out the formula long ago. Laziness and reskinning are accepted by their players. Why make new stuff when you can take stuff away then give it back to us later and call it new?

It is lazy and recycling lol, and the community asked for it. That's the thing lol. Until people pull their heads out of their butt they won't realize "the community" is more than those who agree with their views lol. Ignorance must really be doing all of you wonders. I'm just curious what it is they have worked on for this update. Nothing wrong with that.

So, knowing it's going on 3 years now and no one asked for anything I'm about to state hundreds of times and made hundreds of post about any of it right since the game was released. No one asked to opening up old Russia, you know, all that "playable ground " they stated at E3 that they hope to open up someday. Hmm, what happened? That alone could of lead to adding content like oh lets say, quest, different types of public events instead of the norm, giving the game a little more sense of exploration, bounties etc? No one asked for faction wars Or faction Quest etc? No one asked for Xur to have quest, bounties etc that Bungie lied about Xur having when Ttk was released? No one asked the vendors to become relevant instead of only serving new gamers the first 2 weeks? No one asked for the tower to become it's intended purpose, expanding it and making the vendors to be created as their intended purpose? You know, how this, lets use the speaker as a used car lot? No one asked for side quest for raids? No one asked for Light level to have an actual purposes when reaching max and creating content to put max light to a challenge knowing it literally serves no purpose in PVE? No one asked for more content that could allow for 6 man patrol and give an opportunity for bigger types of public events. Oh, something like sky light when there is an all out war, but add loot to acquire? No one has ever asked for your loading screens to be created so you can actually use it huh? No one asked to ever to be able to explore the city below the tower right? No one asked for the borders to be open on all the planets so you can explore all that content, that " if you can see it, you can go there" nah! No one asked for How raid either right? No one asked for new planets right? No one asked for different types of vehicles right? No one asked for the Cabal to have a raid right? No one asked when new content is being created to actually creat new content instead of running backwards through old content right? Shell I go on? Because from where I stand. Bungie is a cheap lazy company that over prices everything in their game or puts some type of price one form or another. So in all, gamers knew this and realized it and directed their attention to what was the easy way out for Bungie instead of pushing for all this other stuff. [b]Do you want to know what's pathetic?[/b] The community has never got together to push for things I stated above, but when it came to this stupid patch this community got all bent out of shape. That's because they are too damn worried about their precious weapons instead of thinking about the entire game.

The amount of bungie cocksuckers here is INSANE. Yes I like the raids coming back too.However, this should have been done much earlier,we never wanted raids to become obsolete. Why don't they just let us infuse the armor and give us new content? Nope. Too lazy. I think every content in destiny has been either resold or promoted as new in a 'generous' new update. The new stuff was locked behind paywalls, especially in festival of the cost. And little fanboys are praising this company... But hey, let's all thank bungie for a 30€ (or whatever currency) expansion that had barely any content,so we have a content drought since months.

Agreed, and personally I like the idea of having all destiny 1 content being relevant in the end. At least then when destiny 2 launches and the slate is wiped clean I can know that I got to play everything destiny 1 had to offer before going on my next adventure. Also, new players (I say new as in year 2 and year 3) who never got to enjoy vault of glass at it's prime will have that opportunity now; I really want this community to look back on destiny 1 and be happy for the highs and lows, the friendships, and the laughs we had at bungie's expense. If wiping my progress from destiny 1 is what it takes for destiny 2 to be a whole new experience then i'm all in, I want to feel like I did in the destiny alpha where everything was mysterious and everyone was having fun.
