My thoughts on TTK

If anyone cares, here it is. I like destiny. I always like destiny. It's a huge waste of time, but I like playing it. Let's look at this stuff in bullet form for the sake of organization. - TTK provided us with exactly 1 new location. And it's not a large location... It's small and now that we are past the raid (and farming goddam hadium flakes) we don't want to go there anymore. - Court of Oryx was/is very fun and a good way to level up and find stuff to infuse. It's kinda old now, but it was a lot of fun. - They gave us a new story line. I enjoyed it. That said I'm not doing the whole story mission on all three characters and thank god they didn't make me. (I may later if I must) I really like how they have placed hidden stuff in the daily stories. That is cool. - Legendary marks. Accumulating them takes forever (I know not for all of you) and amassing more than 200 per week? Shit how much do you think I will play? I guess it's not that bad, but it feels limiting. - They gave us several new strikes. I like them. But I'm starting not to like them because I've played them several times and they are getting very repetitive. Maybe add some legacies in there soon just to change it up? - They gave us many quests, some better than others, and I enjoyed almost all of them. Simulant was the stupidest thing ever, while killing the shield brothers with shotguns was crazy at that light level. I really enjoyed how they threw in the Varicks story because I just know he's going to lead the new Fallen House. That said I will not be doing that crucible quest on another character any time soon. Good lord. - Nightfall. What is even the point of doing the nightfall? To get a few coins? A warlock bond I don't need? A high rof heavy that sucks? There is no point. And I don't like that. They said they wanted the NF to be a weekly ritual. Well it used to be until they killed the rewards. Now no one is even interested. - They gave us new ghosts to find. Calcified fragments to hunt. Emblems and shaders to chase. I like that. Some of that was very creative. - They gave us a new raid. Umm, idk. I like it and everything. But after you learn the mechanics it's kinda easy and with a group that's done it several times we blow through it like its a strike. And the rewards are pure garbage. I'm convinced that after the initial 20 moldering shard double drop it never happens again. I really hope they don't make 'hard mode' just some annoying crap where the same thing happens but you have three snipers on the platforms. And they respawn. And you can't run.... That would be stupid. - A note about factions and rep. W. T. F. Why does it take eons to level a faction now? That's just nuts. - They said TTK was not just a DLC, it was a game. How is that in any way accurate? Unless there are more missions, quests and content locked behind time gates...I don't see it. Destiny released with its problems, but it had multiple explorable locations.... Sure they put a lot of work into TTK, but to call it a full game to people that have been playing destiny for over a year is wrong. Maybe to noobs it's a game...cause they don't have destiny? - As far as value goes, here's what I think. $80 for what I got would not have been worth it at all. Luckily I traded in some stuff at GS and got the CE for $25. The materials and nerdy stuff in the box is cool. But the exotic class item is garbage and can't even be infused...wtf?! The early suros pack didn't work. My new dance emote (which honestly I don't like any of them) is equipped on my point button. Why is that exactly? And now we have to pay for new emotes and stuff. I mean I might buy a couple, but meh. - Overall I have, and continue to enjoy playing the crap out of this game. Now that the dust is settling from TTK launch, me and a few others are getting back into the crucible again as fire teams and having fun in there. Looking forward to IB. I honestly thought TTK was going to last a lot longer than a month, but again there could be stuff we haven't seen yet. There was a lot of creative thinking that was put into Destiny and TTK and I can tell they are listening and reacting. I'll continue my legend for now.
