Time limited events and spoilers make me play less
Been really busy lately with life, but i dip into Destiny every so often.
I saw that the corridors of time quest is disappearing tomorrow, and actually that makes me not want to come back at all. If i can't do the content, why bother returning?
Also because I've returned late, things have been a mess. I've had popups telling me to go into the corridors of time that i 'went in before', when i haven't been in there at all yet. I've got a quest popup telling me that now I've rescued Saint 14, he's in the tower. But i haven't encountered him yet in my playthrough.
I had an error last week trying to access the sundial activity telling me i didn't have a season pass when i did (separate thread with video posted last week on that).
Overall this has been a messy experience and as a player primarily interested in story, to have that story spoiled for me in the game itself, and then have bits removed before i can get to them.... literally just making me think I'll just not bother with the game after all.

2 回覆Totally agree. I don't even bother logging in anymore. I don't have time to get through the content, so why bother? As fun as the game is, as you said, it's plagued with issues and bugs and this FOMO crap is asinine. To be completely honest, I've gone back to Anthem. It's still fun too. And all the content that was there last year... is still there. Also, much less buggy. And no one is threatening to take away any NPCs or gear at the end of the month.
-
3 回覆Agree. Hate this time limited BS. Hate timed Nightfalls. Hate the FOMO crap. Are you listening Bungie? Yeah, I know you aren't.
-
1 回覆Said it before and said it again, Corridors of Time should've stayed in until the end of the season like the rest of the seasonal content, there was no reason to make it only available for only a 2 week period. Do bungie not realise that some people can't just play every day? I've played every new content drop since Shadowkeep the day it's come out but I know so many people can't do that, like yeah it's great to have a steady stream of things to do but this fomo crap needs to stop, real life can get in the way sometimes.

Not a issue with other games though time events lol everybody love Borderlands 3 rare spawn events and boss events increased high end loot. Even Ghost Recon Breakpoint has a Terminator event two story missons. yesterday mission 1 then mission 2 February 2nd then a rank system for rewards though play and daily missons. We even get a future weapon lol everyone loves the event regardless it's timed. Same goes for time events in D2 people love it- shattered Thorne, primeval meatball and black spendle back when these

3 回覆Bungie stated they're going the FOMO route when they said they're going to put in, "You had to be there," moments. So you're now literally paying for content that is being removed at the end of the season if not earlier every season now.
-
2 回覆But, But FOMO is supposed to make you want to play more! You will play our way and you’ll like it!!!

5 回覆由Robotyze編輯： 1/28/2020 2:24:17 PMThere's no coherent story as of now in Destiny, it's all happily hastily put together bits and pieces content. It's more of a FOMO based mobile game these days. But I still like the gun play so I play mainly for Crucible. Also for the CoT, I just did the emblem code. Not interested in others since I can read the lore on wiki as well.

11 回覆Quitting Destiny 2 is the best thing you could possibly do. I stopped playing last May and it was the greatest decision I have made in my entire history of gaming.
-
The only part of this I agree with is that saint shouldn’t have been at the tower, he should have been at the sundial with Osiris but that would have been a hassle for players and the reason he was put on the tower was due to the fact he was weirdly one of the gift recipients for the second step of the dawning quest. The other point I don’t at all agree with. Limited events is like any event. You can watch a video of the final vault and the bastion quest is available to everyone.
-
I agree to some points, it's really annoying that Saint 14 is in the tower, I can talk to him and I completed CoT yet I don't have access to the Exotic quest because I didn't save Saint 14..... but he's safe..... in the tower. Great story telling Bungie.

Should have been renamed ‘corridors (of very little) time’... That issue of expiry is now an ever present force on every players mind. Get it before it’s gone. Unfortunately when it starts effecting story arcs too I really begin to worry - when a player through no fault of their own can’t do the content that given month offers they are effectively are isolated. That bit of dialogue in the corridors will only be found on YouTube now.. the game will evolve gradually into a passive experience where players who want to know what’s going on in the story will have to tune into a streamers channel. Great for the streamer but a poor experience for the player who wants to feel a part of the destiny universe. A friend of mine who wasn’t able to play for the first few weeks of the season - witnessed Saint miraculously appearing in the tower! No back story and if he does now play through the missions he obvs knows Saints appearance in the tower is a forgone conclusion. I can now see why we are getting story filler in these seasons rather than a continuation of the shadowkeep revelations- to miss out on the main story arc would further alienate the playerbase. Yes maybe the seasonal content model fixes some problems but unfortunately it creates new ones. Arguably theses new issues are far more damaging to the health of the title than the old ones were.
-
While I think this is a pretty large overreaction (the why bother returning bit) I do agree with what you're saying. I don't play every day and I've certainly missed things I will now never be able to get. Honestly, I do not like that.
-
4 回覆Interested in the story? There is no story progression since Forsaken. Cayde died, Uldren died, Drifter hinted towards ships, we found a pyramide ship, Vex attacked, Saint came back. Thats all nothing happened!!!! this game's story is a joke!!!!
-
8 回覆Dude honestly same. I've downright refused to play recently because the game has frustrated me to no end. I really hate not playing and I really hate that I am most likely not going to get everything on the pass (sitting around 35 on it right now) and I really hate that I'm not going to get Bastion most likely, but its that hate that reinforces my will to not play. This temporary content is awful and I really really hate it, to the point that I'm taking a serious break from D2, something I haven't done since Warmind. This needs to change. Thankfully I didn't buy the season pass, so I can save $20 by not buying the next two passes.
-
3 回覆It has the opposite effect on me. I was going to do the CoT lore until I found out they were closing it early for no reason. It’s such a turn off that I just decided I’d skip it. If that’s how pathetic Bungie are to get players to play then I’m not going to be one of the chumps to bite.
-
3 回覆I agree. I also want to add some other things that have made me not want to play as much; - Iron Banner, no NEW gear, no REAL REWARDS - No more Faction Rallies, yes I fking want them back, so do a lot of other people - Having to regrind armor every Season, when the cost to upgrade armor is ridiculous, the RNG on stats is ridiculous, the elemental affinity BS is FKING RIDICULOUS
-
4 回覆It’s supposedly due to technical limitations. Maybe they could get some tips from Digital Extremes on how to optimize D2, because Warframe hasn’t slowed down in 6+ years. I’m NOT saying Warframe is better, but clearly they solved the “technical limitation” problem and don’t delete content that their players pay for... oh wait... it’s actually free to play and they still don’t take content away.
-
1 回覆Yeah, I'm kinda with you on this one. I don't have the time to bother with season passes in games anymore. I get why they're there, and why they're the new fad, and that's fine. It's for dedicated fan bases, it's for the people who want new lists to do on the daily, and it's for those who have the time to do them. And it's a good way to plug in 'free stuff' in an otherwise monetizable game. I see the appeal from different angles. But when the story becomes seasonal... that is what kills my interest. I like feeling rushed for things JUST to expedience them when it comes to story. At that point I'm not playing to have fun, I'm playing to a timer. Didn't everyone hate timers on Nightfalls? Lol, so instead Bungie puts a timer of the story instead... outstanding move, as they say. Personally, Bungie should have legacy versions of this content (and the Vex Offensive areas) just to rerun with strike tier rewards. Most of the time, in other 'time limited heavy' games, after an event fires you can still have snippets from that event remain to replay (such as big story reveals or areas) even if you missed it. But that's just me. I haven't played in a while so it ultimately doesn't matter what I think, but I do know Bungie doesn't have enough actual content to justify deleting it from the game... so... lol... they shouldn't delete it from the game.
-
Same here, busy life, but back in the days, I would manage to get a few hours of Destiny because it was fun. The new format has a bazillion things to do that mostly require repetition. The story is dead in the water. Miss the magic.
-
Same for me. This isn't the game I knew and loved anymore. The new season model just doesn't work with me lifestyle. I've made a few posts explaining my opinion. In short content I paid for that goes away especially story content just doesn't work with my lifestyle.
-
Yeah I don't like all this "fomo" nonsense. Eververse is disgustingly greedy as it is and then the remove content, it's comical. Luke Smith thinks it's cool having these events time limited, most of us do not so again bungie are completely out of touch with the community. The game is going down hill and at this point there ain't much they can do to save it. Needs way more interesting loot and activities that arent a copy and paste of the same thing but on a different planet, more variation in the classes and ability's.
