As far as I’ve noticed (and correct me if I’m wrong) the player base started shrinking heavily in this season (s18). We should be at an all time low in terms of numbers at the moment. Plus, people have started getting refunds for their Lightfall pre-orders. The game has just become too stale. So if we take s18 as the “financial wake-up call” moment, Bungie won’t have had time to address any major issues. S19 will most likely be exactly the same as all the previous ones. Cookie cutter, and just barely entertaining enough to get us to Lightfall, with the only real hype coming towards the end as we gear up for the DLC. (Naively, I still hope I get proven wrong on that one) But I guess we can probably expect 1 of 2 things: Optimistically Bungie makes a lot of flashy promises this season to finally actually address current issues, and starts implementing those halfway into Lightfall. Realistically Bungie just keeps their heads down and their mouths shut, knowing that s19 is basically a write-off, hoping that Lightfall will quiet players down once it drops
