Never thought we would get anything worse than the sunsetting, but here we are.
Sunset v2 is worse than v1, in every single way. V1 removed content for sure, but left the gameplay the same, V2 removed the gameplay and content.
There is just nothing to do, why should i care about tier 5 armor when the bonus is so little if even worth it ? Why should i care about doing the exact same thing next season if i do get a good set now ?
This is such a massive f up by Bungie.
There is just far to little rewards in Portal activities and you have to wait for the daily reset for the targeted reward and mission to change. The weekly and daily missions also is not rewarding at all and there is just not enough of daily bounties. Seriously how is there more weekly bounties than dailies ?

First sunsetting was a good thing, this isn’t sunsetting at all, and the reset is stupid.
-
- Said they would never reset Guardian ranks Reset it - Said they won't sunset anymore Armour of higher tiers and power levels above 200 on weapons and armour, sunset - Said stats would be better Armour is basically the same stats but the range is now 200 instead of 100, which effectively nerfs stats since the ceiling is higher but the armor stats are not We still play this game?
-
None of my old gear was sunset and I used quite a bit of it until it was replaced by something better. Still use my old weapons; don't use the new ones for the most part...The only weapon I have fully replaced with the solstice SMG outclassing my solar SMG and Aishas replacing all my void scouts.

Edited by starcrest: 8/9/2025 8:19:23 PMCompletely agree. Complete lack of content, anything outside portal is worthless in terms of gear, all the pinnacle exotic missions they've chosen (apart from whisper) are the worst, they could have zero hour, presage, seraphs shield, etc that are much easier to run but instead chose all the mechanic/puzzle heavy ones. They say there's no limit but the rewards offered drop down once you've run them and the wait for daily challenges to rotate and the limit on only 1 run of the expert activity is a yawn.

Edited by Dooodley: 8/10/2025 7:22:25 AMCan anyone come up with something that actually improved with EoF? I mean, it's nice to be able to not have a weekly pinnacle cap but the old system was still quicker than this tedious grind - not to mention that they could have lifted the cap in the old system, by allowing more pinnacle drops through pathfinder. Hence, I cant come up with a single thing that is better now. We lost all autonomy with EoF. they indirectly sunset 90 % of the game and the gear and there's no reason to ever play with people in a game that claims to "bring people together" - which it wasnt good at to begin with.

SpunChiiyou make some valid points and I agree that eververse needs to be removed from the game. But Whether we wanted it or not, we’ve stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let’s get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta’aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.

“Play how you want” Bungie says But also “If you use your other gear instead of the newer gear, you’ll deal less damage and get locked out of content”
-
We literally have the same amount of content, if not more than FS - pre EOF. Nobody is stopping you from running around and doing lost sectors etc, but if you wanna level up you'll have to...play the NEW content. *gasp*
-
They said they would be adding more and they have but i would like matchmaking for a lot of it
-
Oh man there is so much wrong in destiny that sunsetting is at the end of the list this time around .

HOOSE__

Its all going to change just hang in there Sony just announced in their last earnings call that they will be absorbing bungie into Playstation studios...bungie had their chance to stay independent but they blew with marathon and edge of fate -
I just keep getting this feeling that we will in a couple of seasons be right back from where we left. How long before we’re right back to 2000?

Incorrect

my main complaint is all the weapons i was interested in are no longer available

Power creep naturally pushes players towards new gear anyway.

I'm getting tier 4 armor with 75 base points, the few pieces of tier 5 I've gotten have lower than 75. T5 certainly isn't necessary. I do 1 million percent agree with you about the reset. It's insane to me they're gonna dropkick us all down to newb status and they think that's ok. I have not seen a single person excited to be reset. Isn't making all our new gear worthless by making all the newest gear "featured" and removing bonuses enough? This is straight Dexter level evil -blam!- from Bungie.
-
No it isn't. Your weapons were not rendered unusable. If they never even rolled out the tier system, you'd be okay with everything in your vault. Tier 2 and 3 weapons are on par with last years enhanced stuff and they drop like candy.

Edited by SILLABYSS: 8/9/2025 10:44:30 PMThis expansion shipped with no replayable content - so this grind is it. Expect changes to be made - this was by design and never expected to last I agree - these changes really suck
-
Yeah they are doing it without physically sunsetting our stuffs hoping we would go do that ourselves. They just rework a way around things and just refashioned everyone’s hamster wheel to make it look more exciting. They want us to keep the wheels rolling just to pad some playtimes into the game. A re-iteration.

The game reminds me of an arcade game 🕹️ put your money in pick your mission and play, after a while it get repetitive.

You can upgrade your old armour light level, right? I know I can so none of my old gear was sunset. Maybe it's different for you and your old gear is locked at 10 light level without the ability to upgrade it's light. If so that a big with your game. Old gear can be upgraded. First sunsetting didn't remove any content. How are there more weekly bounties than daily? There isn't.

for the most part, i'm still using grasp of avarice artifice armor from when grasp first came out
-
Bungie is aware of the issues but the ones making decisions don’t care as they are making sure the buyouts are intact before they leave. Sony has already confirmed the takeover recently so it’s now just a matter of time.
-
You have to do it next season due to NEW GEAR though I think? Also you have to grind light again to access the t5 gear farm… which turns into a pumpkin as not NEW GEAR, so start again, forever…. All on jukebox old content ops :) It’s like a bad dream lol

The bonus to armor is worth it, especially at Tier 5. You really don't need to use New weapons. I just solo'd Creation on GM tier at 57 power under using 2 old, non-features weapons. The buff is less than the old GM overcharge buff. If you dont want to play, don't. If you don't enjoy the process of shooting guns and using abilities in the game, then its not for you. If you do enjoy just playing to play, the game has never been better. Portal needs much more variety, though.
