Kotaku sums up Destiny player burn-out

http://kotaku.com/five-months-in-hardcore-destiny-players-are-hitting-a-1684813586 This is not a bash. It comes from someone who, like many of us, really likes Destiny but is reaching a point of burn-out. The things that popped out to me are the lack of carrots and poor communication from Bungie. If you trawl the forums, you'll find many threads dedicated to each point made, but this is a handy summation of the frustration hardcore Destiny players are, and have been, facing of late. I'm no hater, and like Kirk, the article's author, I know there's an unbelievable game inside Destiny. I'm looking forward to HoW, but until then, it'll just have to be a strike now and again. Edit 1: You guys all rock. It's been a very clear-headed conversation in here so far, aside from some weak trolls. And thanks for the bumps! I think it's good to read what a lot of us have been thinking. Edit 2: I'm pretty sure the forum ninjas have buried any Kotaku-related posts so they don't trend. That's their prerogative, and somewhat understandable despite the normal levels of vitriol you can generally find on these forums. Feel free to bump if you think others should read it but, after over twenty-four hours of pretty constant replies from you crazy, magnificent bastards, it's fair to say that we don't need an article to spur healthy discussion about one of our favorite games.

  • My clan pretty much just jumps online for reset day and xursday. I'm literally leveling my Dragons Breath / SGA / No Land Beyond because I have nothing left to level :T at least MKX drops on Tuesday, I'll have something to help kill the time until HoW lol A good idea in preparation for HoW is to bring all your faction reputations to 2400/2500 and leave it there, the day before HoW drops have 10 bounties completed, but don't turn them in. This way when the expansion comes you can turn in your bounties one by one and get a new package from Vanguard / Crucible / Dead Orbit / Future War Cult / and New Monarchy. Hopefully you'll get some new legendary gear or weapons with updated attack values on day 1! I'm also planning on having my vanguard and crucible marks maxed the week before just in case there are some sweet vendor items to buy. I just hope I'll have enough Sapphire wire / plasteel / hadronic essences for the new upgrades by then :)
