|Slight Rant about Destiny, My favourite game ever. Just a genuine rant, with things coming straight out of my mind.|
|a few no no words :3|
I know absolutely nobody gives a shit about what I as a player thinks,because no one knows of my existance on this wonderful app. But holy shit does State of the Game make me go crazy. I went into it not expecting anything much, but even this dogshit 6000 word essay about how hard it is for them to manage their own game instead of making microtransactions and 20 euro armor sets that fill up their mobile game store pissed me a lot more than it should've.
Bungie said "uhmmmm making the game is hard :p, we wont support gamemodes we added :3 pay us more money for final shape :))), also we are killing off gambit!! And not making any new armor sets, because YOU THE COMMUNITY are never using them!!! IT'S NOT LIKE WE MAKE THE ARMOR PIECES LOOK LIKE SHIT!!!".
First they butcher lightfall with terrible writing and design, practically ruin any potential characters like Calus have, and charge over a 100 euro for the expansion that has less content than base Taken King, or Rise of Iron or Forsaken. "We have devs that want to make great things, butttt we tell them to stop trying, because we will set ourselves up for disaster!!!" The fact that they even blame the community on some aspects is like bro...
Like, about the armor sets for ritual activities. They say they have no desire to make new sets, because players don't engage with them. WHEN BUNGIE makes them purposely uninteresting and uninspired, so that the sets in the eververse store looked much more appealing.
Yes, guys! Underdeliver more! Make your players pay over a 100 digits of their currency to get less content than before! Not only is half of it Nostalgia bait and recycled garbage! But it's completely awful and most likely not play tested!
Kill off pvp, kill off gambit. Kill off your game, just to fuel Marathon, yippers!! Whatever makes the corporate wheel spinning.
I don't regret my 4000 hours in Destiny 2. Met a lot of great people and made friends, enjoyed content. But I'm upset that they are managing their game like this, holding The Final Shape to us like it's some sacred Carrot on a Stick. Let's watch them go into panic mode, fix the game, then start doing the same thing all over again.
I'm tilted...
really really love how Destiny handles the topic of redemption and redemption arcs, because Destiny doesn't even bother with the question of "Have they earned it?" and instead asks "Do they want to change?"
For all the chances Calus has been given to turn back on the path he's on by us and even his own daughter who he abused, he never does. He's stuck in his ways and adamant that he's correct and dies for it, forgoing all the chances he's been given. Savathun was given a literal second chance with becoming a lightbearer, but chooses not to change a single thing.
Meanwhile, Eramis seems to be taking that chance (albeit very slowly lmao). She's at the other end with Calus during Beyond Light, but the deeper she finds herself in with the Witness, she starts to realize this isn’t what she wanted at all (personally I believe it started with seeing her dead eliksni friends being turned into scorn as a “gift” but it could easily be a multitude of things) and she takes the hand that Eido and Mithrax hold out to her. She’s done horrible things, of course, but it wouldn’t be a redemption if she hadn’t. Eramjs just needed to realize what she’d done and have the capacity to change.
