PINNACLE GRIND HYPOCRISY

You are reverting back to a boring Pinnacle grind and yet today in the Developers Insight you said this... "Today in Destiny, playing the same PvE activity repeatedly can feel like a chore—particularly when chasing a reward or following a narrative. Running through the latest Exotic mission the second, third, and fourth time just doesn’t feel fun enough to justify the time spent." How can you understand that "Playing the same PvE activity repeatedly can feel like a chore" and yet you're bringing back a boring time consuming RNG base fake number grind nobody wants. I'm so confused, please help me understand

    • Because there's a difference between playing the same specific activity over and over and the pinnacle grind, which you can do by playing a bunch of different activities. This is not an instance of hypocrisy. Very square peg/round hole comparison. If the pinnacle grind was just running 100 strikes, you would have a point. [quote]I'm so confused[/quote] Lol.

      • Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I personally don't see how running the same strikes and the same PvP and Gambit maps that we've had for years could be seen as anything but a chore. The pinnacle grind is going to be almost 100% leveraged off of old content. For me they're talking out of both sides of their mouth.

          • Everything looks endgame focused, they do need to address the player decline but to me they're chasing the wrong demographic. Destiny will always be the beer with mates game, dad gamers. Difficulty is a single player game market, live service can include aspirational content but that shouldn't be a focus when you're so reliant on mass appeal.

            • If you run the activities over again for weapon rolls or titles , then you will be getting pinnacle drops at the same time, if you want instant gratification your playing the wrong type of game It's material consuming not any extra time involved This will be a non-issue 2 weeks into revenent
