What are your biggest pain points in Destiny right now?

It's no secret that the community feels a bit tense right now with Bungie's engagement and some of the issues we've been experiencing throughout the season. I see numerous complaints and hate threads over certain topics that really drive players insane, but I want to directly ask those who genuinely dedicate their time to this game. What are your biggest pain points? What is driving you away? If you could write 3 quick sentences to detail out what you feel is lacking, or what genuinely frustrates you, I would love to see what the community as a whole is feeling. With over 4K hours in this game, I've been through my fair share of ups and downs with the community. I know that regular delivery of content for a live service game is immensely difficult, and Bungie as well as many others will continue to try new things. I'll share my 3 primary pain points myself, summarized as best as possible. Poor story delivery. The weekly drip feed, and overall presentation of what actually is an INCREDIBLE story and lore is just delivered to us in such an un-captivating way. It is appalling how good of a narrative exists, and yet it's given to us in such a lack luster fashion. Instability, performance, connectivity. We all know these issues have gotten worse, and now far more ridiculous than ever. My clan mate was getting repeated errors just for using arc on a Titan and killing an enemy. I miss when lag was the only slight concern. Time invested = little to no return. This one is hard to specify, because I do think some of the more recent loot has been awesome. Spare returned in a disappointing manner, but many new weapons are genuinely good. However, the high end activities of the game feel almost useless. Why do a master raid? Why farm GMs? Why reach max rank in comp? There is not enough return for more egregious time investment. Some of this ties into overall fatigue and just sheer experience, but something has to be engaging no?

  • Game just doesn’t feel that fun anymore. It just feels awfully shallow and very welcoming to hollowness. Like the game play is still really fun but just the activities we have rn are so boring.
