I quit.

If you've come here to post some sarcastic non-comment along the lines of "bye" or "can I have your stuff" jog on, hit the X on the top right of your screen, go do something constructive with your life. For the rest of you who give half a f*ck about the destiny community, I'm done with this game until something drastic happens to make the endgame worth doing and not tedious, bland, boring and down right frustrating. Lets look at the endgame activities one by one. 1: Strikes - Completely worthless, you get more loot doing public events and public events take at worst a quarter of the time assuming you got unlucky with spawns. The strikes all hold no real lore significance, add nothing significant to the story, and to top it off you can't even choose which strikes you want to do anymore. You know in a sequel you're supposed to add functionality, not take it all away, and I can't think of a single good reason to remove strikes from the storyline and make their selection completely RNG. 2: Public Events - They actually made them fun, when you're not zoning in and out of an area over and over again trying to find players to do them with. I've lost count of the number of times I've zoned into an area only to find it devoid of all players, or found players who have no idea how to trigger the heroic event and gormlessly watch me carry orbs around while they pop the spider tank in the brain case. Does it not occur to people that maybe the lv20 dude is doing that stupid s*it for a reason and they should perhaps copy him? It doesn't help that bungie does nothing to explain heroic events to new players. 3. The Nightfall - I'm going to say this slowly and in big letters so you get it. TIMERS. ARE. NOT. FUN. They aren't fun, never have been, never will be. The nightfall was plenty challenging for it's gear rewards beforehand, it doesn't need this artificial difficulty bulls*it added on top. I get it, you want people to feel challenged for the rewards, but the flip side of that is players feeling cheated when they lose to a timer instead of the enemy. 4. The Leviathan - Boring, tedious and a complete waste of an otherwise beautiful setting. What the hell was Bungie thinking? With the exception of the final boss, these aren't raid encounters, they're glorified puzzle rooms, and the 30 second revive or wipe timer on normal mode is just another lazy way of artificially creating difficulty. The Baths - Never died to mechanics, always wiped to one dude dying to adds and dragging the rest of the team with him because you either drop your mechanics and die, or don't revive and die. The Pleasure Gardens - Lost count of the number of times the dogs bugged out and saw the people jumping on the platforms above them. Also if you're going to force stealth on people, maybe consider putting working stealth mechanics in your game, or maybe just don't do it since this is a MMOFPS not a Stealth action game. The Gauntlet - You're literally having us jump through hoops, and someone somewhere at Bungie thought this would be fun? Also nice troll with the 'only 3 people have to make it to the end but if anyone dies the 30 second wipe timer will f*ck you', thing, that was a nice touch. Oh and you know what else I love, not getting loot for any of this shit, not being able to spend my tokens until after completing the raid, having to find the other half of my reward in yet another stealth game, having my keys removed from my account on reset, having to walk through a maze every time I want to get back to the boss I was at, and after all this finding out that the loot is garbage and has nothing worthwhile over more easily obtainable loot. Other stuff - Removing the variety of perks on guns turns keeping or trashing a weapon into a binary and therefore boring choice. Forcing PvE players into PvP in order to maximize their light increase for the week sucks. You still didn't fix the hunter jumping bug nor the black screen bug from year 1 of the first game. Most (but not all) exotics just don't feel powerful at all. Oh, and the companion app's new look sucks and it never bloody works properly. And I'm out.

  • Good post. I totally agree with all your points. As much as this game is even more broken than D1, I still join friends and pass the time. But I totally feel ya.

  • I have to agree with most of the things you've said. Strikes are worthless compared to farming public events (only vanguard weapon worth a shit for your hard earned tokens is the Curtain Call); public events can be frustrating when you're by yourself or others don't know what they are doing; and the repetitive loot drops are getting a bit annoying- especially when you get your 10th Sweet Busness for your hard-earned exotic engram. . . However, the one thing that really sucked for me was the fact that people were able to level HIGHER than the recommended raid power level, BEFORE even attempting the raid. WTF Bunghole???!! It made the raid feel worthless to suffer through for gear that's not really going to do much for increasing my power level. I actually miss the Forever 29 days, lol. And don't even get me started with PvP! Like playing Control 4 times in a row, and on the same f'ing map; being able to wreck one match where my guns are actually doing damage and constantly winning 1v1 engagements, only to be shooting marshmallows the very next match; and just a ton of other issues that others are dealing with as well. But as long as my friends are still playing it, I will too. We simply have a great time shooting aliens in the face and exploring all the maps.

    • The only thing I agree with here is concerning the strikes. There should absolutely be more of an incentive to do them, and a heroic or prestige strike playlist. It kind of seems like wasted content right now. Public events are very clearly better than D1 and the raid, while being more puzzle focused and mental gymnastics, is still fun I think. We've had lots of raids with multiple big boss fights and I don't think it's bad they tried something different this time, though I do hope it's a one-off thing. And it's odd they'd do this different thing as the first raid of the sequel but still, I enjoy running it multiple times, so far.

            Fully agree with Point 3. Having constant timers in NF is BS and some people in my clan have sworn off nightfalls as a result. Especially after the Exodus Clash strike with the ridiculous vanishing boss. I managed to clear it after a couple of attempts but not before various streams of extreme profanity and ill will towards the relevant game designer of this strike.
