Edit: flop is a strong word. If I hadn’t used it my post wouldn’t be trending, but it’s probably not fair to call it a flop. Catch-22, I suppose.
I played more before this event went live then I do now.
I’m just so turned off by the unimaginative, boring “grind” and the lack of rewards.
EAZ was wasted and this event was a flop because it’s just a cash grab. The armor is okay and I’m glad I’ll have a new armor 2.0 set, but overall this is just a huge disappointment.
I don’t care if people support the cash shop, and frankly I don’t care if Bungie needs this money to stay in business (this is a -blam!-ing joke... no way this is true).
Not putting any of the solstice rewards in the packages is just... greedy and makes D2 feel like a mobile game. Maybe if some unique Solstice weapons were in the packages there would be some balance between integrity and greed here, but that’s not what we got.
I started playing Anthem because their free event is actually fun and rewarding. Let that sink in. Anthem still isn’t even a full game, so I’m not saying it’s better than D2, but Jesus... at least that sinking ship gave its fans a nice event and not a piece of shit Eververse greedfest.
Yeah I've decided to take this end of cycle time to put Destiny down and play some backlogged games I missed out on because I've been playing this game far too much. Now that my gaming time is 25% of what it used to be with a kid running around I need to pick and choose what I play when I get too. This game is losing my interest quickly right now and it all started with the nerfs to super regen, followed by the chalice nerf and finalized by the insanely boring long grind for the solstice armor. Quickly realizing I'm not enjoying the game as much as I did at the beginning of Forsaken. The 3 seasons were meh for the most part, we never got a proper conclusion to the Forsaken story line and Eververse is ruining this game.
