I've been likening Destiny to Stockholm Syndrome for a while now and keep telling my friends that unless D2 shows significant improvements across the board at E3 I'm out. Not because I hate Destiny, far from it - The Grimoire is some of the best lore I've ever seen. But I can't in my right mind/conscious keep supporting this bullcrap. Thankfully there are lots of good alternatives finally starting to make their way out. Destiny has been getting a free pass due to lack of serious competition (and an insane marketing campaign) but that's about to change rapidly. Fallout 4 is only days away, along with Black Ops 3 (which is still activision so bleh) and Star Wars Battlefront. I myself jhave to wait a bit longer for Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U) in December but it'll be worth it omg (and then Deus Ex Mankind Divided in Februrary!!! :D ) At least half my friends list is going to be exclusively on Fallout 4 lol so I'm gonna have to find somethign else. Oh yeah, Star Craft 2 Legacy of the Void is also due out very soon though I still need a new PC 1st >< And then there's all kinds of stuff next year as well, like Uncharted 4 etc. (Forgot to mention I'm sure Halo 5's already taken a big chunk out of Destiny and rightly so). As much as I love this franchise, Bungie seems to be either very stubborn or extremely incompetent as they keep taking steps to drive people away rather than keep us interested (those of us with a brain anyway). - They say they want to make the game less of a grind, yet we're forced to grind the same 5 strikes repeatedly for gear and then the raid/trials as the only way to go get over 300 light AND they added yet another layer of RNG to it that no on easked for. - They removed reforging but then also dramatically reduced the availability of weapon parts so upgrading is more expensive. Oh and exotic shards for infusing is ridiclous Bungie. - Speaking of exotics, they can't drop at 320 - multiplayer is still ruled by people running dial-up connections across the world - Weapon and class balance still sucks with the meta always revolving around 1-3 stupidly OP weapons I could go on forever tl;dr the best thing we could do for this franchise is to NOT buy Destiny 2 and demand better from Bungie.
