I am 100% sure that this topic will be lost in the forum page, but nonetheless, i feel obligated to write it anyway. I am not a well known individual or anything like that, as a matter of fact; i am nothing more than a mere casual who enjoys Destiny. What i am here for is a small and friendly reminder to all of my guardian fellows who might stumble upon this thread: TAKE A BREAK. Seriously, take a break from the game. Do not burn your self out. I've played this game religiously for the past 3 years and oh my god do i regret it. My combined 28 days total game play can vouch for my addiction (there were time when i couldnt play) but now i look back at this passion and think "how did i play this?" Please, do not make the same mistake as me and burn yourself out. Take a break, try a different game for a few hours, dont grind for anything in the game, the less you grind for something in the game, the more you'll enjoy the game overall.
Please fellow guardians, dont burn yourselves out, and may the traveler's light guide you towards victory.

1 Replywell said - I am a Beta Vet and I have put plenty of time into this game, I more than got my money's worth and I will be back when there is more content to do. All my clan have moved on and I hope they'll be back - I know I will. I love the game, but everyone should take a breaks and enjoy others. You are not owned by Destiny or Bungie. my 2 cents.

1 ReplyWhat exactly happened bud to make this statement after 3 years?
-
Only 28 days... I'm at 14 weeks...

1 Reply28 days , is that all ?!? , think I have that on my hunter alone ,
-
I agree. At this point, if you've done or feel you've done everything the game has to offer, it's best to take a break. Sticking around needlessly will be a waste of time better spent in other activities.

Thanks for sharing mate; a post that doesnt bash the game but simply reminds ppl to chill out lol.. I hardly play destiny now as I too was religious about doing everything. Now it feels alot less stressful being able to play it once in a while.

Edited by CarnivalLaw: 1/24/2017 3:03:33 PMI agree 100%. Edit: I took a solid six month off, played the heck out of BF1 and some Titanfall 2. Came back to play Iron Banner, and had a ton of fun.

Even though it won't show because I've remade my hunter and Titan multiple times, my one character trumps your 28 day play time "combined". But with that said I totally agree. I jump on about 2 times a week, excluding time for Trials, just to do a strike and get my treasure. A few crucible matches to stay fresh. But otherwise I'm playing different games and Destiny feels better each time I come back. Good advice friend.

I have played for 1020 hours (6 weeks 12 hours 5 minutes 40 seconds) but I dont feel burned out at all to be honest.

13 Replies28 days? Ha! Top 200 in the world here for time played. Older, divorced gamer. Would rather game than deal with relationship bullshit. But that's just me, I'm selfish. Gaming keeps me from going out and dropping $400 at the bar to impress some bimbo I'll get sick of after being with her for 2 weeks. Break? Very valid point. Anything in life is good in moderation. Right now this game is stale. Nothing to do if you've been playing for a while. LFG is a nightmare and crucible needs a major buff. I picked up Overwatch and haven't touched destiny for some time. I'll be back for D2 if and only if the latency in multiplayer is fixed. However, I had a blast while it lasted.

3 RepliesTake your disc out and stomp it then. That's the only way you can be free of this cursed filth.

2 RepliesGotta take a break after I get kingdom hearts 2.8 for a little while.
-
I have more play time than you and I don't feel burned out don't know why.
-
I have completely stopped playing this game. Nothing against it, I've had loads of fun with my time but I definitely burned myself out. Waiting for destiny 2 and hoping it will meet all of our expectations
-
This game got boring a few weeks after each dlc, i find it utter madness that people repeat the tiny new content on a loop for 6 months or more.
-
Destiny is life

2 RepliesBreak since the 4th now due to moving and no internet. This week or maybe next i should be back and i cant wait man. Had a lotta fun grinding some strikes, and running some inferno crucible games
-
KINGDOM HEARTS 2.8 IS AMAZING!!!
-
Had 4 accounts still got 3 have around 56 days on this account same on my original account roughly 4000 hours all told over 4, decided to take a break got back in to ff14, Skyrim, fallout 4, titanfall 2 etc and enjoying the change of pace will come back in a month or so when I'm not so jaded.
-
Yeah. I played all through years 1 and 2, and then stopped. Completely. [spoiler]Well, for about 6 months[/spoiler] Then I started playing again. It was a welcome change. Moral of the story: Play different games.
-
Im gone for 6 months...but when Im back, oh ho ho ho, Ill be on a 24 hour binge
