Destiny is understaffed because Bungie has decided they can strip resources and manpower to prop up Marathon, mainly because they believed the player base would accept this level of incompetency.
This was an entirely self inflicted issue and we can certainly hold Bungie accountable, since this pattern has repeated several times throughout Destiny's history.
So I respecrfully disagree with your proposal about being patient as that would be exactly what Bungie leadwrship wants.
made valid points. im just saying that when former boss takes money he thinks he owed then lays employees off and then sony takes a cut of those employees. what do you do when you have stock holders and sony pushing marathon to be next big thing. your telling your new boss like hey d2 is broken and hes like well im getting my booty chewed out that we aint making fast money with less employees. some how this has become normal thing in work place. idk just want the game fixed thats all.
I agree with most of your points as well.
Destiny is a beautiful game, perhaps one of the best games in history.
We are currently caught between a rock and a hard place, entirely of Bungie'a doing.
If we don't support the game and it dips further in player count, it dies.
But if we accept the substandard work that Bungie puts out, then we give them permission to give us even worse product, which has happened so many times before.
At some point, all of us have to ask the question, how much are we willing to tolerate?
this is why i believe patience is the key here. i mean d1 was broken back in the day and community let em know eventually it got fixed. exactly right everyone just gives up then d2 will end up like anthem and beginning of no mans sky an then what... one of the best looter shooter gun gameplay lore and stories will be gone. im not saying for community to sit there take it. its broke fix it, bungie needs to be more transparent with the community so we understand this whole situation this silent thing is not resolving problems. let the people know whats going on maybe just maybe community will be understanding. lets just hope for the best i guess.
