Goodbye D2.

After a lot of thought I've decided to hang up my cloak and bows. Destiny 2 held a lot of promise but unfortunately Bungies greed has ruined the enjoyment of it for me and for many others. I wasn't around when D2 launched, I wasn't even playing Online games [i](for reasons I won't get into)[/i] D2 launched not long after I had gone offline. I went back online [i](around the release of BL)[/i] and got D2, I had been looking forward to getting into it and catching up on what I'd missed but Bungie had vaulted all that content - I was left with the copy paste introduction of D1 with some annoying changes. I'm a D1 veteran so you can imagine how I felt about that, then as I got into D2 I came across all the changes they've made from D1 and I certainly wasn't happy. I decided to stick with it though, played all the DLC [i](that has yet to be vaulted)[/i] and even bought a couple of the seasons but the more I've thought about everything they've done with D2 and more recently implementing that terrible transmog system - the more I felt my motivation to load D2 up dwindle. I had lost my motivation before too, before season of the chosen launched but the fact that they decided to get rid of sunsetting gave me a bit of hope that they'd actually start to [i](maybe)[/i] take things in the right direction. I could go on and on about why I'm no longer going to play D2 but the thing that's [u]really[/u] killed it for me is Bungies greed and their disrespect of their players. As far as I'm concerned D2 is just going to sit there gathering dust while I have an actually enjoyable experience in it's predecessor. And no, I'm not going to be back next season or the next DLC, I'm not coming back until Bungie get their act together but I have very little faith that will ever happen, so this is it. [spoiler]Farewell fellow Guardians, maybe I'll see you all again someday. :)[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Farewell fellow Guardians, maybe I'll see you all again someday. :)[/spoiler][/quote] Eververse, Content Vaulting (Theft of Paid Content) Sunsetting, The Seasonal FOMO Model is all reasons I left. Also the Leveling System is shit cause by the time I grind out the Levels, I’m already burned out and end up not doing the End Game Content. I’d much prefer the quick leveling to max power that Vanilla D2 had cause I was able to raid with my friends who didn’t want to do it with me before. Bungie seems to think Leveling is Content and it’s not its progression and progression should not be slowed with an awful leveling system. Like who the hell ties leveling to RNG/Loot? Having a system based on solely XP like Borderlands does, like Diablo 3 does etc. I have a miles long list of reasons I retired from Destiny as a Vet as well but I don’t want to bore anyone with it. I stay on the forums though and keep my characters in the hopes Bungie course corrects and stops hiding good shit through Eververse like Transmog etc. so Bungie still makes shit decisions. So I put it down for other Games like Warframe etc.

    • Good. Play other better games. Bungie doesn't care about the game anymore. They only care about eververse.

        • I agree 100 percent. I felt the exact same way when I stopped playing 2 years ago! I care about the game and wanted it to get better, but realized it never would.

          • Yea im struggling too. Destiny 2 has a lot of potential but it just falls into the meh at best category. I mean everyone is hyped about vog but i ran that raid 40 times. Every weapon i got from there was amazing while i was able to experience them. The last thing i want is weapons that share the name but lack the op part. Bungie is the only AAA developer actively trying to remove content to resell old content we already played lol gg.

          • I just came back a week ago since last June and man this game is disappointing, grinding to a high enough level to get into the lost sectors to get exotics is horrible. All of my stuff is useless, and IB dropped last night, I think great a chance to get caught up...one or two banged by fkn EVERYTHING. Yeah the FOMO thing has killed D2 unfortunately.

            • [quote]Goodbye D2.[/quote] Good for you! I've probably said this many times now. Quitting this game feels like you've been released from prison. A Hamster Prison! 😂😂😂 Game is dying and it's scrapping from the cash shop anything they could get their hands on. Started dying since Activision left them. It's like in a shallow grave and you see a hand scrapping out for some air or something to hang on to. You'll see nothing but poor monetization schemes that weren't there before. It's a sign that game is getting weaker, not stronger. Do you know what's worse than begging?... Scheming! It's weak and pathetic! 😂😂😂 Logic! (AND did you see all the insider alt accounts in this thread?...😂😂😂) Some are posting complete nonsense. If I do the same to any post anywhere in the forums, say just complete nonsense, I'll get the ban hammer immediately. But these guys in here won't. Insider alt accounts. 😂😂😂 Logic!

              • I 100% agree with everything you stated in the post, I too am beginning to get annoyed with the amount of poor choices bungie is making its definitely off putting. Whenever I'd get on my console to play I used to get constant urges to play D2 however those urges are pretty much all but gone, I do hope you find a much better replacement for this game I've also reinstalled D1 and having enjoyed it so much more than D2 recently, I'll continue to play D2 up till the next dlc and wait for feedback from that before deciding to throw my time into it Take care little light

                  • It's funny reading the replies on this post. See, you are not allowed to express your opinion about the game or company in any way unless it's "approved" by the hard-core Bungie fans. So since you weren't approved by them you get the warm welcome they always offer 👍

                              • I played destiny when Xur sold Gjallarhorn . I used "For the people"auto rifle In pvp, I got Thorn in D1 solo, I might have broken a controller out of frustration because of that big ogre. With help of strangers in the game, I got both Lunas& NF. I had good and bad days. I understand you don't like where this game is headed, but think of all those memories & trust me I played other games.I see Destiny brought me back exactly like a moth flying into a hot lightbulb. To burn me again.But I still enjoy it. Give yourself a long break, Destiny will be here.Good luck Guardian!

                                  D1 was much better than this D2 Poo Nothing but a gutted Shell... Activision wasnt great, but it sure beats this Flaming mess... Can’t wait till It gets taken over by something better! and it’s not Bungie behind it.
