You can stop hoping now. They had three major chances with every dlc and a lot of other smaller chances with every patch to lead things back into the right direction. HoW was where destiny was at it's best imho. But now, just look at all the chances they got to fix stuff and nothing happened. Remember the templar and atheon cheese with aoe grenades? Remember the crota cheese? Patched within two weeks. They did their best to stop players from getting easy loot that literally affected no one else. And the thorn running rampage in the crucible? An use for wormspore? Unsatisfying loot drops from KF raid? Timegated exotics that everyone is complaining about? It takes MONTHS for Bungie to react. But hey at least we get to pay for events like festival of the lost or for emotes... And we will pay for the next DLC anyways. Always one step forwards but at the same time three huge steps backwards.
