      Absolutely not. I've dropped off _Hard_ Since after Final Shape.
      Now I only get on to play with friends and help those in Raids
      And dont even get me started on pvp. Outside of dicking around in PMs with, Again, Friends, I have not touched PvP. Except 8v8. I liked that.

    Worst thing for a game isn’t super negative comments, shows people still care enough the game to want it to improve. Apathy is what truly means the game is dead. I logged on for Iron Banner cuz I like the armor set, did my daily challenge matches and then got off. Still haven’t tried Tomb of Elders at all

    The problem with the idea of "just take it less seriously" and/or "just take a break when you're not feeling up to it" is that the game still requires money to continue playing. New expansions, new seasons, these things require continued investment. If they were entirely free and PERMANENT, players could come in and out as they pleased, and never have to worry about FOMO manipulating them to feel forced to play when they aren't up to it. As it stands (doubtful that this will change with Frontiers), new big content will require more money to get in the door, and if the current content isn't good enough for people to feel good about the last couple years worth of purchases, slowly but surely, more and more people will say no, the player count will continue to drop.
    Especially when you factor in the increasing amount of bugs that aren't just nagging little graphical quirks, but potentially YEARS worth of "this bug caused the gear you tried to farm nearly impossible to get"...what Paul Tassi was talking about, losing the trust of the players...if players can't trust Bungie to make a fun, rewarding product (rewarding in loot, rewarding in story, rewarding in competition, rewarding at all), then why bother play OR pay.
    Nothing gets better when the community is largely apathetic.

      I’ve moved on after giving a decade to the franchise. I’ll always cherish the memories, and I have no negative feelings towards Bungie or Destiny, but I’m almost surprised at how much I don’t care about the game after so many years of caring deeply. There is a small part of my brain that remains frustrated at the missteps and Destiny never reaching its full potential … but maybe that potential was imagined all along and the frustration is of my own making …

    As soon as I stopped taking Destiny 2 seriously I enjoyed myself FAR more than I had in the past. By simply playing maybe a couple matches of iron banner, a quick dungeon run or the final encounter of a raid instead of grinding for long hours, I've enjoyed the game so much more.
    I feel like Destiny has such an addicting and time consuming gameplay loop that far too many people treat the game like it's their job and take changes and problems with the game far too seriously. Just take a break, play other games and play what you like instead of stressing over what you don't. Yes you may not get the 5/5 god roll or have the gilded title to flex with but you'll be far happier and have lots more time on your hands.

    I think you got it right TV. PvP was half of the game and one of the things that made D2 special, to bring pve guns into the crucible and see what was good/fun. To me Bungie is no longer a AAA-studio, they are just a broken dev team that put makeup on a corpse.

    The latest Destiny scandals, weightgate and tonicgate, have really drained the remaining incentive to play and grind this game. I didn't think they'd actually break the "looter" in a looter/shooter but they did. So now I just do 1 GM and close game. Get the IB armor and close game. A broken loot chase makes the additional bugs and glitches much more intolerable. Hence, the people will close the game and move on. Bungie can't blame anyone but themselves if the people don't return.

    Just like you I will always love Destiny and I still play it regularly, it is still my main game. These days however I feel like I have less and less desire to play. Before, I would come home from work and couldn't wait to jump in and try out a new build/gun, sometimes I would even skip dinner for more playing time. These days I have to force myself to jump in sometimes because it just isn't as fun as it used to be. As a PvP main, overpowered hunters, crazy uptime of special ammo, ability spam, bad matchmaking, SBMM, and poor sandbox choices have really made the PvP experience annoying and simply not fun. Games are supposed to be fun. The season of the splicer and the 30th-anniversary sandbox was the best for PvP in my opinion. I'd love to go back to those days.

    Myself and almost my entire raid core have stopped playing - with the exception of literally two guys. I built a clan and a Discord around Destiny 2 and I love the group of players I've managed to build up (albeit a small one), but I still have all the bots and active pings in various channels for Destiny news, Bungie Tweets et cetera - so we all have a laugh over all the bugs and issues that seem never ending.
    But we've all basically stopped caring because we stopped playing. We stopped complaining. But I would argue that that reality is almost worse. We complained because we truly cared about the game and wanted to see change. Now, we just don't care and we've all moved onto other games - which has been great for all of us.
    Anyway - cheers to you for the Space Marine 2 content btw, as a huge Heresy/40k lover, you did great with all of it. Don't mind the Chaos ridden heretics bashing you in comments.

      Just imagine how many great games you could have played over these 25K hours. I realized that one point, and Destiny is just a filler content here and there. I missed sooo many great games because I was so into Destiny. I am fixing that now. 2025 is PACKED with awesome games not named Destiny. I will buy the DLCs, play them like a true little campaigns, and move back to other games that call my name. No more 100 percent Destiny. It's foolish and complete waste of time at this point.

    I agree that pvp development slowing down was a bad move. The thing that feels bad to me this year is that The Final Shape genuinely felt like a new game in a way that D2 hasn’t felt since Forsaken… and then these Episodes are just back to same-old, same-old…
    It seems like they can’t deliver the volume of content needed to keep the game going and feeling fresh. And you’re totally right that in the downtime between compelling releases pvp is where players go.

Like you I’ll always be a fan and hop on to play from time to time, but my interests have been drawn elsewhere. As of now I haven’t really touched the game for about 6 months. Just last week I loaded it up, sat in orbit, and quit after 10 minutes chilling there. Game will always have a special place in my heart, and the real life friends I’ve made in that game have been great. I just don’t really care anymore though, I’ve been enjoying Space Marine aswell, Deep Rock Galactic, cod, and some single player story games. Btw I’ve very much enjoyed seeing you branch out and make videos on new games, I think I’ve seen every single of your SM2 videos, and I was happy to see one of my favorite creators cover a new game I enjoyed too.

    I see all the complaints and understand them, but I still LOVE Destiny 2 and even downloaded Destiny 1 to get an even better understanding of what people fell in love with “ back in the day”. I’ve been playing for almost 2 years now and it’s really the only game that holds my interest. I just hope they keep adding to it in a positive way and try to keep it fresh for both PVE and PvP. There really is no other game quite like it

    I will quote you at 5:00 of your video - "And to make things worse, Trials of Osiris has always been the activity that keeps people coming back." I say this is a bold statement and can be considered a lie. Trials of Osiris does NOT carry the player base, and never has. It has seen record low numbers almost every week for many months (outside of a few outliers of 200K players on certain weeks). C'mon Vanguard, at least stay honest. Trials only carried in D1, in D2 it has been nothing but a challenge for everyone, bungie included.

    Tbh, you're right man. I stopped playing, and stopped complaining, after beating TFS' campaign. It was fine - on it's own, it would have just been another expansion, admittedly with some decent loot. But with everything that happened during the year of Lightfall, and the immediate collapse of expectations with Episode: Echoes, I ran out of things I cared enough to complain about. The entire game felt the same to me - middle of the road at its peaks, and disappointingly mundane at its lows. I'm pretty much over Destiny now, and have no desire to return. I think that more people should be done with it. Hopefully someday, a better game can come in and replace it.

    Take the game for what it is instead of what it could be is the best approach. I feel my passion to log on daily has drifted away as well long ago. Final Shape campaign was a great campaign but also a great point to say " Thanks for the Journey, I'll be going for now." Granted I do still log on after a 4 month hiatus myself but Apathy is growing and as a wise woman once said: " Apathy is Death."
    Bungie fumbled not just by making PvP such a low priority but also by doing the same thing with Gambit. Both of these modes to me felt like the truest form of endgame in Destiny. Competitive enviroments. You can sink in hundreds of hours doing Gambit and optimizing your builds for ad clear , boss damage and the likes but the section needed more gamemodes and content. It needed its own Iron Banner and its own Trials iterations.
    It is what it is. I'm not a fan of the way they make so much temporary content with seasons and how barely anything of that actually stays in the game, so a lot gets worked on and maybe 1% stays. Feels like a waste of resources but oh well.
    Don't play if you don't like it. That's the best feedback you can give. Have fun elsewhere and hope it'll get better or find new passion games.
    Looking forward to Path of Exile 2!

    The worst thing I can say about D2 is that after 10 years of playing religiously, I FINALLY don’t really care anymore. It isn’t even that bad, I just feel like my enjoyment of the Destiny loop is kind of ending. I haven’t even tried the new season which has never happened before. The game has had a great run but maybe it’s just time for other games to enjoy the spotlight.

    I also think a lot of us are just getting older now. Destiny isn't really marketed toward new people very well so the majority of players have probably played it for years and have gotten older. I've been playing since 2014, and I'm 25 now... I have a Job and lifestyle. I would love to sit and do raids and dungeons and grind like i used to, but I simply just don't have the time anymore. Sad but real. But I'll always be there, to this day the Story and Game of DESTINY is my favorite of all time.

    I do deeply care about the Destiny franchise. It's never stopped me from putting it down to play other games or simply to take a break. In a wierd way, it's like anything else you indulge in. Games, books, shows, food... if you're too close for too long or it's the only thing you focus on, you're going to find ways to be unhappy it. Nothing is perfect. Once in a while, something comes along that gets as close as you can imagine, but that is fleeting.
    In the case of Bungie and the Destiny franchise, they've been through the ups and downs as much as anything has that's been around for that amount of time. There is no developer/product that survives so long without criticism and scrutiny. They will make mistakes and they will rebound if they're passionate about it. I am sorely disappointed that pvp hasn't evolved, but I have been at a minimum satisfied with pve content overall since Forsaken. Sure, there have been some misses, but there have also been some monster hits. It's like a long running television series (I am old, btw), no matter how much I like it, there are story arcs or episodes that I'm not a fan of.
    As an illustrator, I also understand why pvp will not be a focus for Bungie when it comes to Destiny and why they've moved forward to develop Marathon. It's no different than being a content creator or a restaurant owner. You have to make the product that people will continue to engage with and spend money on. Bungie can't develop pvp when they have no revenue source to justify the amount of work it would require to push it to the forefront. The Destiny community simply won't stand for a microtransaction system and the truth is, that's how other pvp focused modes/games make their money. PVP battlepasses, skins, etc. A pvp mode/game needs to be wholely developed as such, i.e. Marathon.
    @TrueVanguard I've always loved your input and I'm glad you've landed in a place of peace with this. Keep up the good work.

  • @Kait07_

    Ignoring profit motivations, as a player I'd wish that Bungie would just stop trying to maximise engagement throughout the entire year and just provide 2 "mini expansion" content with no seasons. yes they have said they are adding "shadow-keep sized expansions" but they can just stop the seasons (since 60% of the time they suck anyway) and just provide quarterly patches since they clearly do not have the resources or ideas to keep up with the episodic model

I still enjoy PvP and PvE and have been playing gambit too, but I will admit that it's not something that is sustainable for a while. I've also explored other games that were more affordable and have been having a blast. I still have belief in D2, but just not a lot.

    Without casual players willing to get grinded into paste, the population will continue to bleed whomever is least skilled population bracket remaining until you get to where we are today. It's the top 25% of the skill delta playing against themselves.

    I have not played Iron Banner or more than a match or two in crucible for about 2-3 years. But I was indeed a player who only jumped into Iron Banner for the Stasis Side arm. I reset rank twice before I got an Air Trigger/Chil Clip roll. HOWEVER I have been have a great time (minus the bad connections) in the Crucible. I can't see myself playing crucible everyday after its gone, but if that freshness was able to improve the tempo of release Ide play more.

    I think the overall take of the video is the only way to still enjoy Destiny and not throw your hands up in frustration. taking breaks to play other games is super refreshing, but expecting the game to re-invent itself at this point is like trying to swim up a waterfall.
    I really like the game, but I will not let it consume like it did in the past.

    Then it's time for Bungie to stop intentionally underdeveloping content, and to stop pushing that self-destructive mantra on to other developers in public GDC's. We as consumers of a product we pay for, have the right to voice concerns when a product is bad. Destiny 2 is not a free game. Every DLC cost money. Every annual DLC is typically $100 for the people who are complaining because we buy the full year package with all the seasons, just to get a underdeveloped buggy season where half the community can't even progress the season because they get locked out of making tonics. Or how about all the bugs where things like tonics are meant to target a specific drop but they actually don't?
    No. It's time you stop defending Bungie. It's time you hold accountability as a content creator, and hold Bungie accountable too. If you were truly happy with the game with nothing to complain about, then you wouldn't have taken a many, many months break from the game. You didn't play through alot of the mess and bugs we did. You come back to Destiny finally and the videos were basically "did I miss anything good?" and "stop complaining".

    I want to care about it because of all of the time I put into it !! I was a PVP player... I did all my pve to get my pvp builds ready for trials.... but it seems that everything that I loved about the game they kept taking away.... like for me the best days of Destiny are the days when you HAD to grind raids or trials to hit makes level. when skill gap was a thing and the abilities aided the guns not the other way around... for me the perfect Destiny looks like this>>>>>>
    1) weapon armor crafting is gone... The chase was part of the joy of the game farming nightfalls for god rolls trying get my perfect palindrome or TYS ( as well as armor to get my best builds)
    2) SKILL GAP !! look I get it not everyone is the best at PVP but like dont nerf snipers or movement or in air accuracy because some people cant do those things embrace the fact that some players are better than others and foster it with a place for custom lobbies as well as better match making ....
    3) PVE Challenge the nightfall was hard with the wipe and go back to orbit thing.. again stop nerfing it so the lower tier players can do the activity they are meant to be hard so that means get good aka practice... and foster the Sherpa community
    4) weapon leveling and armor leveling those made the grind worth it I did more public events because I got this sick gun that I need xp for...
    really it comes down to the fact (for me) they kept trying to make the game easy and less grindy but they really just dumbed it down and made it monotonous. Destiny rise of iron was honestly such a high point and some of the best nights with the boys and even just randoms who became friends my best man started out as an LFG trials teammate... Destiny 2 was like a breakup as much as I wanted it to work it just changed so much it wasnt the same game and somethings sure they are better but other things well here we are ...

    I think criticizing the game for it’s flaws is totally acceptable. The game in itself is amazing to play, but the new player experience needs a complete overhaul. There’s a lot of quality of life that can be implemented too. Showing in precisely what fragments/perks/mods gives would be a huge improvement. Why do I need to ho on a 3rd party website to understand how bait n switch is way better than frenzy? Adding the % each buffs gives you wouldn’t overload the description of the perks at all.
    I love this game and play it everyday but complaining all the time is just a waste of energyto me. I do the activities I like and that’s it.

I played D2 the other night which was the first time in months. It’s still pretty good and there is a lot to do but for me there is not much drive to do any of it. So, it seems I am pretty done with it. I am older now and life is different than it was 10 years ago. D2 has been an important part of my life but I have moved on and I am ok with that. Anyway, TV, I have enjoyed your content for many years now. I will continue as you play other games-like watching all of your SM2 videos. You have been a good ambassador for the D2 community.

    For me peak Destiny was back in 2018 with Last wish raid, Forge madness and Spare/Mindbender's meta, although I hated it. But that was fun overall. Bungie/Activision split was the beginning of the end. Much less content, controversial pvp balance at times, awful pve game modes. The game started collapsing on itself. It's been fun, now it's time to move on.

    I bought black ops 6 and I haven't gone back to destiny 2 since. Although I still think d2 is a better shooter, the lack of player pool, compounded by sbmm and no loot to chase I don't see the reason to play the game much anymore. I'll still always hope into crucible now and again but they never make new pvp content and imo they have ruined the crucible.
