Five Things You Should Experience In ‘Destiny 2’ Before It Kills Half Its Worlds

We are just under three months away not just from Destiny 2’s newest expansion, but from a truly massive shift in the game, where for the first time, Destiny will be closing down many of its worlds, putting them in a “content vault” for an indeterminate amount of time, if not forever.

the whole problem with this game to begin with: too many things gated/ hidden/ secret from players.
jump through hoops to find the content, trying to 100% areas (particularly if you don't roll with a clan or a group) is beyond frustrating, it's impossible.
be nice if they could just make part of their "ever-expanding fascinating worlds"
an open structure where you could access their content without all the bullshit backtracking Re-backtracking researching,
having to scour game sites and forum threads and reddit to get answers to questions, because everything's this elitist secret.
that's why I gave up on it .. and now it looks like I'm never going back, because I won't be able to unless it's on their schedule,
and, because of online only server access,
l won't have access to previous content that
*I PAID FOR* ...
and of course it's being done for their convenience so they don't have to maintain those servers, so now we have active content restrictions because that's the best solution for the developer/ publisher.

fuck you bungie.

I have a hard time believing you actually invested time in Destiny because your rant couldn’t be more off.

Seraphim1413d ago

sun-setting on the other hand. that's the one thing that broke the camel back for me. Especially but not limited to the fact Bungie said before D2's release they wouldn't make that mistake again and yet here we are. I love the franchise and have thousands of hours in D2 alone but the constant artificial grind and sun-settting is just bs. so is power creep. it's as if Bungie has no faith in their own game anymore. Sure I like to earn and chase new things, especially great weapons but I play the game because I enjoy it. Not to chase levels, chase re-issued weapons and armor that I've already earned. Since armor 2.0 I still haven't even been able to bag a pair of Contraverse Hold. Even with armor 2.0 Bungie took options away from us. We can't roll with the same perks we had in armor 1.0 and on top of that we also have seasonal mods to slot into that armor.

I'm not "off".
you just disagree.
you're entitled to your beliefs and your opinion.
you're willing to accept/see things they're doing differently, and that's fine...
but there's a reason they're not making destiny 3.
they wouldn't be able to sell it,
they're not making enough money and that's why they went free-to-play,
and lots of people feel the same way they serve themselves first, and then it's what's "best" for their player base when they get to it, the constant egregious nerfing re-structuring of how they want to do things, has been inching down this path of "it's our game and we're going to do what we want" to the point that it's gotten (FAR BEYOND) ridiculous.
you don't see it that way, again, you're entitled to your opinion.

Its why I stopped playing both 1 and 2. Amazing feel and love the world and lore but fuck me can you make it any harder for me to enjoy the game Bungie?

Epicent3r12491413d ago

100% agree with you L7Chapel...

L7CHAPEL1412d ago

well I appreciate the comment,
but I think it's really unfortunate to be agreeing, we've just had the same experience and it got old long ago
and now it's just ridiculous.
I'm not here to be their revenue stream, I'm tired of the carrot on the stick shit that this game has overwhelmingly become.
it't what 15-20-25% at best enjoyment, and the rest is grinding and putting up with a lot of bullshit.
there's just too many other things to play, and others on the way.
at this point:
dedication to the game and loyalty just reaffirms they're shitty treatment
of their players.

Never played with any other player in the first game or 2nd got bored and deleted it.

Destiny 2's Raids Are The Pinnacle Of Teamwork In Video Games

Whether it's entering a zen state during DPS or the rush of dopamine on its completion, Destiny 2's Raids excels in multiplayer teamwork.

ChasterMies15d ago

The raids are one of the reasons I quit Destiny. You stand in a circle and shoot at a triangle on a wall, have to restart a half dozen times, and then hope the random reward blesses you. Then you realize you aren’t’ having fun but instead are doing a lot of work for nothing. Back when Destiny was at its peak population, trophy data showed that less than 5% of players ran the raid.
