The Destiny Community

For whatever reason, any time a post shows any form of concern, criticism, bold predictions, opinion, or even suggestions  that are not in favor of destiny 2's formula, you will see replies saying "the destiny hate is real" I'm sorry but I can't just watch this happen. It is so easy to tell what a real hate post looks like. It often does not include any reasoning and will be almost entirely opinionated, that or the OP is just plain trolling For the people who do talk about the d2 model in opposition, i see plenty of awful comments telling them to stop bitching, go away, troll elsewhere, "if you hate the game, then leave". If we hated the game, we would not be here. We all want a piece of this game we love. You can't just not include us because it goes against what you like. That's incredibly selfish and honestly quite rude. There is plenty of room for discussion whether it be opinion, compromise, predictions, or criticism. There is no need to shun this part of the community who are really concerned with d2 we love the game too, some of us are just more vocal. Some of us show love in a tough way. Some of us are more willing to speak out when they feel left out. We all want to be a part of the community, it starts with the community itself actually being open to either side. I know for a fact that that it doesn't stop there, it starts with the community itself actually being open to either side. I know there are actually people who are upset with d2 that spout endless venom at those who leginamently like parts of the game (even those willing to discuss why). I've seen it, people who are so upset with the game, that they feel jealousy when people can find enjoyment, while they dont. While some of them may just be tired of it all, it's not excusable. This goes for people who are just plain jackasses as well. There are people that are really finding enjoyment in the game, be a good community member and listen to what they have to say, share your values so that you can undestand each other positions and each others argument so that we can reconnect as a community, don't attack them for finding enjoyment while you cannot. I encourage those who enjoy d2 to try this, and I hope those who don't enjoy d2 learn a lesson from the toxic, to be better and be a good destiny community member We have played a big part in splitting ourself, but bungie has just as much fault as we do Bungie needs to take a huge amounts of responsibility for their part, including being completely rude to the community, being silent on key variables, and poor moderation (cheaters and forum instigators). They need to do a better job managing the community, and it starts with acknowledging there's an issue to begin with. If they really want their fanbase to be on the same page as them, then they need to start actually caring about keeping it together I'm no saint in this either, I know I've had my fair share of bad moments, I take full responsibility for some of my mixups. I'm not referring to when I disagree with someone, Or challenge their views, I do that because that's what a community is supposed to do to connect and bring the gane foward. I'm talking about when debate turns to informal bickering. I'm not always the one to start the shoving, but I have done so enough times to feel the need to pin enough blame on myself and to admitt to my wrong doing No matter the side you are on. Be open, be respectful, and most of all, keep it clean. If we want a better community everyone has to do their part.

      • It's just like US political stances right now: there are two groups that are super-polarized, and they are the 10-20% outliers. The 80% that is either neutral or not interested in the conflict or conversation either stays silent or gets ignored. So what we have left is an open dumpster fire of a bunch of haters and a bunch of lovers, with a few people like myself that have an opinion and are willing to listen to that of others as well. Short version: the conversation is both unproductive and a smoking mess right now. As you can attest, I'm an avid commenter on the forums, and even I'm only dropping in once or twice a week to see if there's anything interesting these days. Might as well stand between a group of third wave feminists and a crowd of the 'No Means Yes, Yes Means @n@l' frat boys, for all the difference it would make. Constructive or objective criticism needs to be expressed and discussed / debated openly. Outright hate or outright devotion needs to be stamped out ruthlessly or at a minimum ignored and muted. Polarization is killing discourse.

        • It seems to me that most of the destiny community on the forums are cry babies and or trolls. In my down time I usually grab my phone and head to the forums the amount of threads complaining is crazy. I'm pretty sure if bungle gave away expansions for free there would be multiple threads finding some sort of complaint about free expansions. Bungie basically damned if they do and damned if they don't.

        • Not always but most of the time it's the way someone expresses their opinion. I have came out for something and against something and have never been attacked. Perhaps I am lucky. I did just make a post defending someone who was getting attacked for his negative opinion. Then I was told it was the way the post was written. Basically they thought the op was attacking them.

          • I agree with this. I've been on record criticizing D2 on numerous occasions, and I don't think that my assessment of the game is unfair given that I am judging the game based on what I know from playing the Beta, as well as the confirmed information that has been leaked since the reveal. I don't think of myself as a "hater" so much as I think of myself as a passionate, hardcore fan who has been let down time and time again as the game has been changed, as I perceive it, for the worst. If I truly hated the game, i would never have put so many damned hours into it, and I wouldn't be here today giving feedback on the game - in spite of the fact that I haven't played the game with any regularity since before Tripmine Stickiness was taken away. The truth of the matter is that I WANT to love this game the way I loved it back in Y1. Nothing was EVER more fun than Y1's PVE, and the occasional PVP during Y1. Was it perfect? No. I don't look upon Y1 with rose colored glasses like some would suggest. I fully acknowledge that Y1 had its flaws. It was stupid that the game's economy would change every DLC. It was dumb that everything was left behind at each DLC until we got a brief respite with HoW. The story made absolutely NO sense. If you didn't have a big group to play with, you couldn't experience the best Destiny had to offer. But the game was fundamentally fun, it kept us chasing after elite tier loot that actually made a difference and was incredibly fun to use. It had replay value unlike any other PVE game out there. And that was enough to keep us going while we waited for them to do things like implement optional matchmaking, improve the storylines, expand the worlds and offer us new places to explore, new weapons to obtain that could compete or exceed the weaponry we currently had available. And now, the game is pivoting from a PVE loot-oriented grinder to a traditional FPS game. That is fine for all of those who wanted something more akin to an FPS game, but as the game continues to pivot that direction, it IS upsetting a lot of people who are still WANTING to be die hard fans of this game. We just need Bungie to give us some reasons to get excited about the game. Thus far, they haven't. That's not on us as fans, thats on them as the developer/producer of the game. That doesn't make me a hater - it makes me an unsatisfied customer.

            • The forums does not represent the Destiny community. Think of the Destiny community as an awesome city and the forums is just a shitty neighborhood inside of that city.

              • Great post, I agree with most of it; at the same time, people who are here to troll are almost all on the 'D2 is crap' side. I'm not saying everyone on the 'D2 is crap' side is a troll, I'm saying that most trolls use 'D2 is crap' to troll people. It can be hard for many people to tell if someone is just trolling or not, because it isn't hard to troll people, anywhere. The community minus the trolls has been great from what I've seen on the forum, most people here are just trying to have a fun game to play and give their feedback.

              • No no no get the f out of here with that common sense. Also the forums are more fun than the game with the fanboys and the haters going at it and then you have the trolls that some are super fun [yes viper looking at you]. It's just a game and it's the internet so expect bs and abuse all the time and most importantly have fun doing it.

                • That's fair enough you are entitled to express your views and opinions and your right you shouldn't be insulted just because the game is going in a direction you think in your opinion is bad or Bungie have implemented too many changes , but if you flip the coin the other way people who played the beta and liked the changes their opinions should be given the Same value instead of oh your just a fanboy blah blah blah the game is nearly completed they aren't going to change load outs , abilities, number of players , if it's too much change don't buy the game if you liked the beta then your probably going to love D2

                      Meh. 80% of the negative feedback on these forums is just blind hate. No constructive or useful criticism given. When the vast majority of the people flaming the game are spewing nonsense, have unrealistic expectations, or present no evidence to back up any of their claims; its easy to see why they are dismissed and even shunned. I'm genuinely surprised when I see a coherent, well thought criticism of the game that sounds like it was written by an adult. Usually it's just trolls and children whining about silly stuff and blowing the tiniest of things way outta proportion.

                        • Mainly because anti D2 posts are just. "This sucks." "I did bad in this match so this sucks." "EVERYONE I'M CANCELLING MY PREORDER!" "Insert calling bungie, bungo here." - Criticism is pointing out the things you don't like and giving what could be improved or any ideas that people could agree with.

[spoiler]because fu[i][/i]ck you[/spoiler] thats why lol its just human/attack helicopter (however you itentify) nature.

                            • Tldr, sorry. Got the gist though. Through "discussing" things with the "bungie can do no wrong" crowd, I have begun to understand the mentality of the trolls on here. When the person you are clearly explaining something to, flat out refuses to comprehend the simplest of points, it's easy to just start being a dick. They're not going to see reason anyway, may as well have some fun with it.

                                  I understand what you are saying, but look at #feedback. The problem isn't people with serious opinions being dismissed. The problem is people with ill informed opinions or opinions based on preconceived feelings about Bungie. I will come back to this post and edit it with a couple of the most popular posts on #Feedback that demonstrate what I am talking about. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/229875466/0/0 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/229851784/0/0 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/229834009/0/0 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/229678111/0/0 Even if you disagree with me about some of these posts, at the very least look at their comments
