I have been playing this game regularly since Season of Dawn in 2020, and this is the first time I've gotten so frustrated that I've seriously thought about quitting. I could do about 80% of the game's content before but now I'd say I'm down to about 30%, much of which is like pulling teeth even at the soft power cap of 1800. It took me over an hour to finish ONE Legendary Lost Quarry, and all I got were enhancement cores.
I've never claimed to be good at this game but it was still fun until Lightfall dropped. The only content that still feels challenging but enjoyable are Raids and Dungeons. Is anyone else getting burnt out?

The difficulty of the content is nto really bugging me as bad as lots of bugs/lags/glitches/changes are. I preordered and also got season pass so i spent $100 for what i would consider to be a much worse version of the game considering the armor mods. The old system was really dynamic and let me develop a playstyle and subclass that i really liked but now it feels like if im not playing void so i can constantly invis and res my team then im not able to complete the content in a timely manner since its tuned for 3 people but i have 2 constantly dead. I understand the old system had its problems because not everyone had access to the mods but that could have easily been fixed and now we are in a situation where lots of content has been sunset and again people who were lucky enough to get rolls on weapons simply outclass others ( disruption break waveframes with autoloading in pvp, to name one) When you look at something like the devour fragment for void and compare that to solar fragments we need 4-5 fragments to even being to approach what devour does in terms of health regeneration but will never even get us close to the grenade regeneration, and even then you are handcuffed to using solar weapons to continue your health regen. Then there's arc, which is easily my favorite, but without having the restoration of the other subclasses or sheer damage reduction is in a really bad spot, and to have something like the linger time of the DR fragment nerfed just to turn around and give 100% uptime on 60% damage reduction from woven mail to another subclass is a huge oversight. we're right in the middle of a huge pvp event and there is an absolute uproar about matchmaking in IB and i have to side with everyone on the forums. the match making is terrible in this game and to tie PVE weapons behind PVP where im getting 0 rep for a loss and am constantly handed 10+ losses in a row means i may not get the PVE weapons i want before those are again sunset. its really unrewarding. The FPS issues are a whole other problem, again being arc and getting 100-0ed in my super while dodging because things in this game do FPS damage means i guess i need to turn my 2k video card off so that i can play. this is really ridiculous. I was under the impression that this was addressed but i just got out of a strike where this was a problem and im not going to queue up for another one, infact, i just uninstalled. Easily the worst expansion ive ever seen rolled out into a game and its really dissapointing because its an expansion, these are supposed to EXPAND on the game we already have but instead with bungie its like 80% of the game is constantly taken away and its sad because we pay for it. i feel for everybody who has really enjoyed the game thus far but is no longer having fun because $100 ago i feel like we were all in a lot better spot. shitty deal.
