“To the players of Destiny, I want you to know that my number one priority, and Bungie’s, is and always has been to deliver great games that we can all share together. I believe that Destiny is a one-of-a-kind experience. I also believe you have yet to see our studio’s best work. My new role here at the studio will be entirely focused on fulfilling that promise.” –Pete Parsons, January 2016 So Mr. Parsons, are we seeing Bungie’s best work [b]RIGHT NOW[/b]? If so, how? How are you and your development team “fulfilling that promise” to us? If we are[u] not [/u]seeing Bungie’s best work right now, why not? Are you spread too thin? Have you devoted so much effort to Destiny 2 that we shouldn't expect anything but Band-Aids for Destiny from here on out? Just be honest with us, please. In another thread, Lost Sols made this suggestion (and I strongly suggest you take it): “I’d like to see [Parsons] write a mission statement for the future of this game, D2, and beyond, highlighting his vision for where he wants to take this franchise and company.” I have no idea how insulated you are from the reality that is Destiny, Mr. Parsons. Do you even know where your once-great company stands with the Community right now? Do you realize that THOUSANDS (millions?) of players have sworn never to buy another Bungie product? Even more have said they are done with this franchise (but [u]may[/u] buy another Bungie game at some point). People who have loved Bungie [i]for decades [/i]have said they hope your company goes under! With this one game – and your company’s shameful treatment of this Community – you have turned die-hard Bungie supporters into Bungie denouncers. Love for your company has turned into hate for your company. Pardon my language, but that is really -blam!-ed up, Mr. Parsons. You may have made a ton of money on Destiny, but in the process, you did tremendous harm to your company in the hearts of the players. So what are you doing about it RIGHT NOW? What can we expect from you and Bungie for the remainder of Destiny? For D2? Beyond? It’s time to own the shit-show, Mr. Parsons, and to explain to us why we should trust you when considering buying Destiny/Bungie products in the future. Having spent a lot of time playing your game and being active on your forums, one fact that is undeniable is that Destiny has created a new level of savvy gamer. We’re not going to buy the shiny shit simply for its shine. You may have made a lot of money off of us so far, but you are going to have to work harder for our money [i]because of Destiny[/i]! So how do you plan to keep us still here and try to win back those who have left? RIGHT NOW and INTO THE FUTURE are we seeing you studio’s best work? After all: you promised, Mr. Parsons. TL;DR: You need to EARN back our trust, Mr. Parsons, and one way to start that process is by being open and communicative about the plans for Destiny, D2, and the future of Bungie. Are we seeing Bungie's BEST WORK? If not, why not, and when will we?
