Be honest with the community and tell us the real reason you are getting rid of shards and not Glimmer is because shards don't have a functional limit. Nobody is really going to hit the shard limit without exploits, but players are regularly smashing their heads into the 5 foot ceiling of the 250k Glimmer cap.
If you wanted to help the community, Glimmer would get the axe, but you don't.
You want to control the community and the "economy". I put economy in quotes because players cannot sell nor trade with each other, so the only economy is the one between the player and the game.
Does Glimmer go to the Postmaster when you hit the cap? No, you're just SoL.
So you keep the currency that has a pissant sized cap that will force players to quickly spend it before they hit the cap because they're anxiety will tell them they are wasting all the extra Glimmer once they hit the cap. This means extra trips to the tower and more opportunities for players to run past the Eververse store front where they might spend actual money.
It is genuinely funny that you guys think this is clever, but the community has already figured out that everything you do is in service to the Eververse store. You're not fooling anyone.
Guess I'll spend all my shards on Raid Banners and take a picture of it. Maybe I'll get Art of the Week or whatever the hell.

10 回覆Im confused about the anger to this... 1) there is ZERO "economy" in the destiny franchise, never has been. There would have to be trading for there to be any form of economy, RNG isnt an economy. 2) it just takes away another pointless material to grind and number to chase. This community constantly complains about pointless, repetitive grinding...so bungie takes part of that away and yall are pissed? Dafuq? If you have that many, pretty damn obvious you werent using them for what they were put in the game for anyway, just another form of pointless hoarding like "one day it may be meta so bungie please give more vault space". Yall complain more about glimmer than shards so its pretty obvious you werent struggling to get them nor whatever it was you were "using" them on anyway so why does it hurt your ego that much? Of all the legitimate stuff bungie does worthy of being outraged about and you pick this? No womder this game never has any direction, nobody knows where to fuggin look 🤦♂️

2 回覆I really don’t understand why people are mad about this. I’m not happy about it. It just doesn’t even seem like a big deal. Shards just flood everyone’s inventory anyway. I’ve never “farmed” for legendary shards. They just come in as I play the game. They’re practically useless anyway. I’d give away shards right now If they gave me another way to farm ascendant alloys

4 回覆由AbsolutZeroGI編輯: 9/16/2023 12:02:57 AMWhy the hell didn't anybody spend theirs? Like fr, saving it for what? The new feature that costs 10k of them? I've got 15k. Should have line 50k, but I SPENT MINE. Y'all hoard too much. Should've spent it. That's your fault. Not Bungie's

3 回覆Curious questions: why do you have so many shards? Why don't you use them? What are you waiting to use them on? Just curious cause I keep seeing people complain about losing large amounts of shards, but they never explain what they plan on doing with them besides holding them.

1 回覆No one needs 20-30k legendary shards. No one “worked hard” to get them. You play the game, you get legendary shards. I have avid gamer friends who love the gameplay in D2 but stay away because of the grind. This is just a step toward making the game more accessible to new players in a way that probably won’t effect the people who are complaining about it in as significant a way as they believe it will. I’ve been playing Destiny since D1 beta and I’ve been on D2 consistently for the last three years. I have about 500 legendary shards right now. This isn’t a “spit in the face to veteran players” but it probably would offend you if hoarding all those shards gives you a sense of accomplishment. A perfect “if you don’t use it you lose it” situation. Except you were never going to use all of them so you’re not losing anything.

10 回覆Bungie clearly outlined why they’re getting rid of shards. Do you need 40k legendary shards nope. It’s a way to help newer players not have to delete all their legendary gear to buy something from rahool or upgrade a gun or buy a weapon from a vendor

Omg! I've tried to get alot legendary shards since playing February 2021, but without a glitch, I've never reached 50,000 legendary shards! 😲 The most I've had is 3,000, but I've always spent them up trying to collect legacy armor sets and god roll weapons.

3 回覆As someone else who has played Destiny 2 for years, allow me to ask respectfully: What would you need 44,633 Legendary Shards in your inventory at any given time for? The only things I could imagine making a dent in that would be spending them at Rahool for Cores and Prisms, or if you had 100 engrams saved up at each vendor and spent all of them on weapon focusing for god rolls. Even then, dismantling legendary weapons gives shards back. But what really perplexes me is how you came to the conclusion that "IT IS ALL ABOUT EVERVERSE". Really? It is all some Machiavellian, Aizen-esque, Xanatos Gambit-inspired subluminal messaging scheme to tempt people to spend money at Eververse?

I take your point but the problem isn’t legendary shards being removed it’s that glimmer is such a small cap. I myself have something like 39,000 shards but don’t mind their removal because I only have 39,000 because they’re pretty useless. Problem only arises here if glimmer costs increase and cap remains the same

2 回覆So... what are you using those shards for? If you have over 44k, you [i]clearly[/i] don't use them and thus don't actually need them. Might as well get rid of them.
-
16 回覆If you have that many you’re not using them anyway. It’s not like you purposefully grinded all of those shards. You just get them over time from meaningless tasks. Because they’re basically meaningless.
