Bungie desperately wants us to increase playtime… by throttling gameplay.

Bungie just nerfed the wrathborn and expunge farm for candy and pages to force players to complete 100 strikes instead of finishing the event quickly. Here is what I don’t understand: why make players do more long boring core activities? Surely it’s understood that people are farming these 3 minute activities because they aren’t boring, broken or completely neglected unlike strikes, crucible and gambit. This idea of squeezing as much playtime out of us artificially by removing fun and speedy farms, rather than fixing the current playlists that offer no fun factors and have been virtually unchanged in years is just a testament to where priorities lie as a company. Instead of throttling candy and pages, how about incentivise use to play gambit? Crucible? Especially strikes? Gambit has been a broken, boring, repetitive mess for the past year or more and has seen no changes. Strikes have seen no changes since year 1 and don’t NEARLY compare to how good the playlist was in d1 (specifically: score, better modifiers, better and more rewarding loot, strike specific gear). Just a little something to think about. P.S: Buff leviathans breath

  • I don't care if anyone agrees or disagrees with my opinion, but anyone saying... [b]"If you don't like it then don't play it"[/b] is not an argument, it's a cowardly way out of one and is saying you don't want to look for a solution or anything helpful for the community at all. It is used as an excuse for how Un-creative this company has been for a while now for the millions they literally have made off the player base creating these events, and other activities. [spoiler]In spite of how much anyone likes this game, and there is nothing wrong with that. If Bungie is not going to put in the effort into the content they create like these events while asking for feedback at the same time? Then they need to stop lying to the player base face saying "we want feedback to improve the content in this game". It's distasteful and that says a lot about the company in spite of how much anyone likes the game or company. Call it whatever you want, I don't care. The truth is, this company should be doing a hell of a lot better work for the amount of money given to them.[/spoiler] Since Activision left this game has gone backward when it comes to being creative, having that inspiration to do right by the player base, and the grind time has majorly increased, but Eververse has majorly moved forward. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the millions Bungie makes from Eververse was to help fund these events? (creating actually new content, ) not just reusing content like lost sectors and old loot.
