i genuinely wish nothing but the worst for the higher ups at bungie. i know the devs are genuinely doing their best, but the higher ups are just pathetic money hungry losers. how are you backed by a multi billion dollar company and unable to have an anti cheat. unable to let your devs balance the game. unable to hold q/a's with the community. how are you so painfully tone deaf. its genuinely sad.

I mean yea the higher ups are doing terribly but why is the community always so insanely defensive and protective for the devs as a collective? Higher ups decide fundamental things like monetization strats etc., yes. But the general execution is made by devs. The art team is doing great. Outside of that? The gameplay team, the UI/Portal team, the seasonal team, the campaign team, the raid team, the rewards team, the difficulty team, the content team, etc. etc. are all doing nothing but bad decisions against the overwhealmingly massive majority of their playerbase. Pete obviously didn't make the decision to put in 20 layers of mindless rng grind to make players fall asleep playing for longer than 15 minutes. He gave the general direction of the ongoing development and monetization strategies. The current devs executed this miserable gameplay. To sum it up, imo its time for an entirely new developer taking on the steering wheel for the destiny franchise. The Bungie we knew and loved is long gone.
