      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.

    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’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.

      while weight gate does suck if people understood how videos games work and how pseudo-random number generators work you wouldnt be that surprised. also considering how this is what destiny was like in the beginning with low drop rates to the point it was memed on.
      yes we should make sure bungie fixes their game for us but at this point everyone should move on from the looter part of this game. every long term looter shooter should look at destiny and realize that hunting for loot only satisfies the player base for so long. so you either sunset which apparently we didnt like or you make less generic loot and focus all efforts on things to do with said loot. aka making sure pvp and pve is solid even after the story is over.

      Bungie has a long history of ignoring the community's woes until it looks like they can get good PR out of it and claim to be the hero coming to save the day. Or claiming a thing is for the benefit of the community, like them lying about Activision, or hiding/lying about XP throttling numerous times over many years.

    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".

    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.

SBMM in 6v6 quickplay is awful because it makes everyone play sweaty. I hate using the meta and prefer to use stuff that people wouldn't think about and you could do that before and still play well. Now you will be severely punished for not using the best of the best or the matches will just be extremely sweaty because no one is willing to take risks and people just team shoot and deathball.

      @@MuhammadAli-qk2fe ​ you must be at a higher skill level or whatever metric they use because my games on average have become less sweaty in control maps. but to be fair i dont try to play the meta which gives me less wins so i get the chill lobbies. should i win a lot though i do get some sweaty lobbies.
      the only time i have issues lately is when i take a break and dont know what the meta is and get demolished by weapons that were weak before OR i play on small maps that obviously should be 5v5 and not 6v6 or the worst one is when we have a really balanced game and everyone stays around for the next one only to have one team do a bit better that time for one of many reasons and bungie is like lets break up the team. i was playing two nights ago and this happened multiple times. we have a close intense game where it comes down to the wire and is close for the match maker to mix up teams in what i can only image is previous match performance instead of career performance on each map. there are some maps i do really good on and other i absolutely loath and play badly on.
      as for trials it has also been less sweaty once they fixed the matchmaking that always pitted randoms versus full teams. in general i just like 3v3 more because its less chaos and i can make plays and track what the other players are doing instead of just getting attacked from every angle. ive only been to the lighthouse once or twice but in general the SBMM has made the experience better for me playing on console.
      idk but it sounds like we should play together. im constantly using weird shit that doesnt get the win but is fun.

      Even if there were crafting it'd just be another shopping list that'd bore me to death filling it out.
      There's nothing new they can give us in D2 anymore loot wise. I don't even care that the guns all look like existing loot, I just have absolutely no use for any of it outside of maybe the dungeon loot which has a couple of new perks and a second flavour of area denial GL, but that's it. Once you have 3 flavours of rocket sidearm, it's hard to care. I have every hand cannon, shotgun, sniper, fusion I could ever need...

    I can remember the days when I was in groups that would do a raid and then afterwards chill in crucible. Idk why but PvE isn't really doing it for me either I still haven't attempted the new raid. I think my notorious bad rng has begun to take its toll also. I do find myself questioning why am I grinding for a godroll if I can already complete activities without it. To me the only real reason to benefit from godrolls would be in crucible but there's no one there anymore.

    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.

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.

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.

Not the version I personally think is still broken (Prismatic - Storm's Edge, strand spector dodging, and swarm grenades). Even IB I went through the guilding w a Solar hunter build, with tripmines and weighted knife, and pulling Traveler's judgement sidearm from collections. Switching between exoctic gauntlets for variety (Ahamkara spines, and Athry's). I decided to ignore the meta and have fun, and in the end actually played better overall than I normally do (but the key point was had more fun in PvP in a long time. Will keep playing Solar Hunter in PvP until it stops being fun.

    All my friends who played PVE endgame content all left, but I kept playing. Not much I wanted to do in PVE since I like playing with my friends mostly, but PVP I could just keep playing

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.

    This game drives me insane with things that are just infuriating.
    For instance - playing IB for pinnacles to try and get to the useless 2010 cap. In the one night I get 4 heavy and 2 Primary weapons - both slots of which were already at 2010. I get a single piece of armor in a slot that I needed. Go to Banshee to try and get the 2010 energy weapon I need - another heavy.
    On top of that - focusing for the sidearm - 3 in a row with exactly the same useless perks combo and no chill clip.
    The game just does not respect my time - an entire evening wasted with only one tiny bit of advancement towards hard cap. I should have had enough drops to get everything on that character to 2010.
