This is not a discussion. Bungie is simply deciding things and then telling us their decisions on one day of the week through you as a mouthpiece. We’re given no choice or room for voicing our opinions when there is time to still make changes or reallocate dev work before time is wasted and players feel like things are getting worse. The only discussions being had are behind closed doors amongst yourselves about what to listen to and if or what might be done [i]later[/i] about it, and us, [i]separately[/i] talking amongst ourselves where no Bungie employees enter into a conversation to actually discuss reasons why decisions were made a certain way or merits of feedback. If you want a real discussion, let players know what plans you’re making earlier and let us tell you what we think of them. Put out polls and surveys in advance. Don't just say "thanks for the feedback" and leave. Sit and talk back and forth with people to get a greater understanding of what we want. Tell us why you’re choosing to work on one thing and not another. Even if it’s not the thing we want you to work on most at that moment, it’s better for everyone if we at least know why and not lead us to assume that you’re just ignoring popular community concerns. You can’t keep treating this like an offline campaign game if you want to thrive, not just survive. Waterfall development is bad when you’re putting things out there and just hoping the results are good according to your internal goals and not the experience the players voice that they want, and opaqueness to informing your customers of what’s coming is even worse.
