Does anyone consider Bungie a "Professional" and "Respected" gaming company? The black spindle hidden story mission is a return to Year 1 and is a total joke. Normally Bungie has created unique mechanics to drive player engagements, however this mission provides nothing of the sort.
A timer is not a unique mechanic. Darkness blasts that travel through walls, infinate adds with reduced ability cooldowns are not only chaotic but just plain frustrating.
Bungie has yet again "taken" the easy way out by creating a horrifying user experience.
Destiny is supposed to be a game about fun, but this isn't only not fun, but makes Bungie appear less and less involved in creating enjoyable endgame challenges. If this is the future of Destiny, than Destiny may not have a future.
Stick to what destiny is about, fun. The black spindle is not a weapon I want to have, as the headache to acquire it is not worth the amount of effort Bungie has put in to creating this terrible user experience.
The more occurrences of this type of content really makes gamers question just how much of Halo did Bungie really make? I mean you can't claim to have mined gold and then sell copper. Get on your content or get out of gaming #Simple. #BungieReply
Edit: After getting the spindle my post still stands, time trials are old, and all players should expect better end game content than this. I think 99%+ of players (including myself) did not find this hidden quest by stumbling upon it.
