      @@greenlukesky4615 Destiny's an MMO, and MMOs don't end. It would, given the necessary support, continue to generate revenue as long as they invest in it. Obviously it's declining as a revenue stream, that's natural at this point, but it's still revenue. If Bungie were solely focused on the development of Destiny and not putting the bulk of their operational costs into other projects, they would've been able to make it. Their profitability would deteriorate, but they would still be profitable.
      It's the fact that they burnt so much money and time on projects that never saw or have yet to see the light of day that's killed them. Gummy Bears and Matter were money straight down the drain and Marathon STILL has no return on investment as it burns resources. As Parsons said, they spread themselves way too thin. They spent too much on too many projects and killed themselves. Bungie needs additional revenue streams but they needed to do it incrementally. Too many resources that went to neither Marathon nor Destiny. Focus on Destiny support and Marathon development without the wasted expenditure on other projects would have far greater odds of success.
      TLDR: Bungie needs more revenue streams it's true but they should've kept more resources for Destiny to ensure its sustainability and consolidated the rest of it on Marathon. Money wasted on doomed projects was the killer.
      Beyond all that: Destiny is still conceptually similar to an MMO, and it could follow the same life cycle if focused on. There's still no game that actually does what Destiny does as a FPS/MMO hybrid. It's a market leader in that regard. You can compare it to World of Warcraft in the 2000s. There are other games that have tried to do what it does, but no matter what, Destiny's simply more fun to play and that's part of what keeps it stable. Like WoW, Destiny would (and has) inevitably decline. But that doesn't mean the game's dead. WoW is almost a shell of itself in terms of popularity compared to how it was at its peak, but it's still alive and kicking. It doesn't generate as much revenue as it did in the past, sure, but it's a steady stream and remains one of the largest MMOs on the market and it's just had a huge expansion release.
      It still gets the resources it deserves to continue development. God knows if or when it would end. That's the thing: MMOs don't "end". Bungie seems not to have gotten that memo, and offered no reassurance that Destiny would continue past TFS.

      Arguably the game has reached the end of its natural life span. It could have been extended, but the Sony acquisition seems to have resulted in serious mismanagement. It happens... There was a game, one of the first MMOs, The Realm Online (came out when I was 10 and I will be 40 next summer). It was so ahead of its time, was successful for a solid 7-8 years, then it was sold to another dev, and promptly ran into the ground. It still exists.. but it missed the boat to have become something amazing.

Bungie in general seems cooked tho and according to insiders the Marathon is not looking good.

No comment on the experience that was bc thats something else entirely. But I realized that I wasnt having fun anymore when I was forcing myself into playing Solstice so I could get the godroll strand rocket. And I thought to myself "I am only getting this so that I have it and end up having to play more destiny than I already have been" The rocket isnt needed. I already can carry weight on any raid.

No one wants to spend months on end grinding the same encounter of a dungeon or raid over and over and over and over again trying to get a certain weapon with a certain perk combo. My bf and I spent literal months in the 2nd encounter of duality just to try and get him demo frenzy unforgiven. That has taken a dungeon I loved running and ruined it for me all because of grinding. I will forever be in favor of crafting. Nothing can change my mind on that topic.

    • @kyleb4781
      @kyleb4781 หลายเดือนก่อน +16

      I think crafting in dungeons and raids is smart, and crafting in stuff like the seasonal stuff is bad. Like to me, Into the Light was perfect - it was content DESIGNED for grinding, and so grinding it was a good experience.
      Dungeons and Raids should not be grind spots. The intended gameplay of a dungeon should be running the dungeon, not farming the second boss for ages trying to get a completely random drop out of a relatively huge loot pool.
      As things sit, it's ended up the opposite - I have no reason to grind seasonal content because I can craft all of it, the only things I have to grind are dungeon encounters that I don't WANT to engage with that way, but doing the dungeon "properly" has such a low chance of giving me loot I want.

    • @Py687
      @Py687 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

      Datto fails to realize that the issue isn't crafting, it's that there isn't engaging content to run after the drop is obtained. He used to chase after each new item and that blinded him to the emptiness of the content itself. Now that the illusory chase is gone, the wool's been pulled off his eyes. But he comes to the wrong conclusion because he's like a recovering addict.

      @FridayUwU หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Not every weapon/roll/gear piece needs to be accessible to every single player regardless of skill. If it took literal months to get a 2/5 roll, that is an extreme skill issue. I'm glad you enjoy getting whatever roll you want now, but the game is dying since the looter aspect of the LOOTER shooter has been crippled. Now we just have the shooter part with uninspired storytelling.

      Crafting still sucks though. The best situation is us being able to focus the specific weapon and whatever the activity or playslist we finish will drop at most 3-5 drops of the gun.

      No the community didn't bitch the casuals did, the casuals absolutely ruined the potential of this game. Don't get me wrong it's still great and the final shape was a 7/10 dlc, but there's no replayability. The only difficult content gives little to no reward other then reskinned weapons with adept slapped on the end, or titles. And even new things like prismatic, strand, just aren't that fun. Like prismatic was cool for the first 2 weeks then it was just like "damn this is basically the same shit I've been using but better so why would I use anything else?". I still don't get why casuals don't get that destiny just wasn't made for them, until bungie gave in around beyond light and catered to them.

I always felt like D2 was missing something that D1 had. In my opinion, one of the best parts of D1 were those hidden achievements within strikes and raids that you had to do within a certain time frame or in a certain order to achieve some amazing secret weapons. To make it even harder, they didn't tell you what you needed to do, and you were only able to do it when the rotation for the strike occurred. I wish there was more secret hidden stuff within Destiny 2, giving you that sense of accomplishment once again.

Its like fixing a broken car that was fundamentally designed wrong, spending thousands of dollars to patch it up and get it going.
      Another thing was that people were genuinely addicted which is scary. I just played other games when I got tired of Destiny, but many people simply could not let go of it.

It's genuinely scary to watch just how many people have developed a straight up addiction to this game like they would an actual drug and I feel like it's not talked about nearly as much as it should be. So many people feel like they literally can't play anything else and keep crawling back and throwing money at the game just to be disappointed again. I've never seen anything like it.

    i agree with all of this aside from the crafting weapons point. When i get the crafted weapon im going for and begin using it i feel like im "finally playing the game". However, when im just doing a grind with no end in sight I feel that im in a chore loop, and i felt this a lot during Into the Light, as did a lot of my clan mates. I understand how for some it makes it feel checkboxy and then get off, but that isnt the case for everyone.

    Man, I'm in pretty much the same boat as you Datto. I'm just completely checked out because Bungie spent years killing intrinsic motivators to play (mostly through insisting on using extrinsic motivators everywhere), and between persistent loot and powercreep that has gone way too far, the extrinsic motivators have lost all value. There's just not any reason to play other than the narrative, and you can knock all that out in a few hours every couple months. It's all kinds of sad.
    Hopefully they'll do a proper reset and wipe the board clean, ideally with a Destiny 3 but could easily be any number of other forms, where player power gets dialed back dramatically and they learn the right lessons from what ultimately seems to be killing D2. I'm not gonna hold my breath though.

I am okay reaching a pausing point for a month or two so that I may play other games in my catalogue. Games as a service have almost become a full time job, and I happen to like the fact that crafting rewards my time better. Destiny 2 produces so much more content than Destiny 1 year over year that there is always something to do, assuming you don't play it like a JOB.

    It's frustrating that nothing feels like a surprise anymore. They announce everything upfront-new exotic weapons, armor pieces, even raid gear and guns-so there’s no excitement in discovering something on your own. The thrill of uncovering hidden areas, secret missions, or unique raid rewards is gone, leaving the game with less mystery and more predictability. The magic of exploration, the anticipation of what new armor or weapon might drop in a raid, and the joy of stumbling upon something truly unexpected have all been lost. Everything is now available to everyone without any real grinding.
    I remember it took me over 60 raids to finally get the Fatebringer gun. Sure, it sucked for some people not to have certain guns, but that also made you play more, driving you to keep pushing for that coveted armor or weapon. Now, with everything handed out so easily, that sense of achievement and dedication has disappeared. I know not everyone shares this opinion, but it’s how I feel.

    I feel like adept raid weapons should have a significant boost to either stats or an even bigger bonus to enhanced perks. Keep normal raid weapons craftable, but make there a reason to chase the adept weapons bigger than a "slight" buff so master raid is worth grinding again.

  • @mr_blinky1094
    @mr_blinky1094 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    Partly I think the issue is that allowing enhanced perks on craftable weapons and *not* on farmed weapons was always ass-backwards. It should always have been a question of crafting your godroll but not having access to the enhanced perks for that slight extra edge, or getting the enhanced perks but needing to grind for your godroll the old fashioned way. The fact that craftable weapons both mitigated the grind *and* were often just objectively better thanks to enhanced perks really did just fuck up the weapon economy in the game super hard.
    Obviously they've changed things recently so that new farmable weapons like world drops can be enhanced, but honestly I don't even think that's enough, because a craftable weapon is still probably better and definitely waaay more convenient. And unfortunately I don't think there's really a fix, because it's not like they can just remove enhanced perks from already crafted weapons. But they might need to anyway if they ever want to make the grind worthwhile again, because right now there are almost zero situations where you really want to go with even an enhanceable world drop over just crafting a godroll..

    The issue with the grind is that there's nothing to do in the game but aim and shoot shit. The world becomes incredibly one dimensional when you have the gear you need that you truly realize the game tries to put on an mmo aesthetic but has absolutely none of the creative dimensions of an mmo nor the actual mass multiplayer part of that experience. We have nothing to show off but guns and ships, our characters have all the same personality in every way. Warframe has given us dojos for clans to meet and have fun at, and destiny clans have had nothing of the sort since they became a thing. There's no open world activities except to shoot things, crafting doesn't exist but to make more guns. The game has made an entire ecosystem around a singular thing and when the grind for that thing is done, there's nothing else whatsoever anywhere in the entire game.

    Saying a system that reduces the grind/time-sink of a game is a bad thing is just a wild take to me. It's not just Destiny either. Been hearing it from Genshin Impact and other game communities too and it's just baffling how many people enjoy wasting time grinding what is essentially a glorified slot machine. "Casual" player or "hardcore" player doesn't matter. If getting a drop is all that matters then maybe you don't enjoy the game as much as you think. The only problem with the crafted weapon system is that it wasn't in the game since launch.
    I don't see how "no loot pursuit" has anything to do with someone saying, "I got my x weapon, now I can stop playing." Like I said before, whether crafted weapons exist or not, if that's what you're saying then maybe you just don't enjoy the game very much.
    Lack of a challenge and build diversity I totally agree with. Those issues have existed for a while now and something should be done to address them that don't involve nerfs/buffs to builds/items or general across the board power drops because these things don't actually fix the problem. I really think a reinvention of the class system and boss encounters in general needs to happen where classes are more diverse and not just about "how can my class do the most damage possible?" because that's really all in comes down to.

The whole, we got the rolls we wanted and now don't play just tells me they don't actually enjoy the content in the game. They could remove weapon crafting, and the no-lifers like Datto would immediately find something else to whine about. Crafting, like Xur, is there for the mostly casual playerbase and if the game was actually good, it wouldn't affect the no-lifers at all.

    The bottomline is that Destiny has long coasted by "gUnPlAy So GoOd" without really building up on WHY the gunplay SHOULD MATTER. Outside of raids (and maybe dungeons), the "good gunplay" argument's legs can only last for so long.
    I pumped so many hours into D2, I loved the lore, but ever since Lightfall, I felt nothing but disrespect from Bungie (idc if it's the devs or management, that's the company's problem to sort out, not ours) for the time and money I put into the game. Even TFS couldn't fully get me back into the game, despite the HUGE chance I gave it.
    The game is stale. There is no clear path forward, I don't trust the company to know what to do with the game, and there are no signs pointing that they're even capable of pulling off anything at this point. TFS was a good send off, but that's all it amounted to for the majority of players: a send off. Hell, it likely didn't pull back in and hold onto as much players as a lot of the remaining playerbase would like to think it should have (hot take: it didn't really have staying power, at all).

    It’s still hard to believe that bungie decided to work on 373729 other projects and not a d3 especially when everyone knew that the franchise needed a d3 after final shape , everyone except the people making decisions at bungie 🤣

      It's mindboggling that it hasn't been on their production line list and won't seemingly happen. There is so much opportunity with the Destiny world...they could pull even a Riot and launch an animated series along with D3 announcement. But the management seems to be incapable of thinking logically. They rather invest in 5 games and the majority gets cancelled. It would also give them the opportunity to fix the core issue for attracting NEW and younger players.

      @@lanycera Imagine not believing in the franchise as big as destiny and gamble it all on a new IP.

    Me and everyone I know has had the "im probably gonna wind down on destiny after final shape" mentality. I never really thought about content creators panicking about their channel. It's sink or swim now I guess. GOOD LUCK

      Yeah this has gotta be ROUGH for the folks who's careers & liviliehoods have literally depended on Destiny's existence. 😬 Yikes. I wish them all the luck, truly.

      @KabbalahSherry hopefully you've built a solid community that like YOU and not just destiny. That is tough to do though. Datto will be fine I think.

      It's why some like Mactics have branched out to different games
