* Grind became worse both in difficulty and progression. The only way to progress is to always buff the enemy to the point they're raid bosses and/ or nerf yourself into oblivion. It's not fun, it's not fair, if I should have to fight enemies 30-100 levels above me to level up ONE SLOT, the loot that drops should be a lot higher than +1 or +3. No other game I know of disrespects our time like this * Still need to do lfg for 90% of activities with bonus engrams, and matchmaking gives people who leave early or waste all your lives more than half the time * Buggy missions like the fallen boss on caldera or now contest of elders disconnecting you * New crossbow which is needed to maximize rewards without having to buff the enemy to godhood is almost impossible to get * Pvp still shows no signs of improvement * People are showing screenshots of trials reports on reddit showing somehow worse players, I'm talking 0.57 kd somehow having stupidly high win rates, indicating something's still most likely not working right * Scamming players with that new iron banner armor in eververse * With how terribly Ash and Iron launched, it's no wonder why they FINALLY, after almost 10 years released a taken shader and armor set, but the former lacks the seeping darkness effects and are even now selling the Witcher armor pieces for bright dust * Supposedly the current event isn't dropping ANY T5 event loot regardless of level unless it's a prime drop, which they have yet to address in any capacity when this event is ending in 1 more day * Stupidly short timers on too many missions * No new catalyst for any pre-EOF weapon like there was supposed to be * Slower than ever communication and most of it is them nerfing everything, then walking back some of it It's no wonder numbers are so low. Hell, I finally started playing Clair Obscur since a couple days before A&I and I'd agree with my brother that the devs could've easily sold this for more along with other micro transactions on it. It'd be a better investment than a game that keeps getting worse and worse to the point the only things that MIGHT save Destiny are Sony fully taking over (and players must be REALLY desperate since we're hoping for it) or they finally make Destiny 3. I'm -blam!- and I find myself wanting to play this game less and less because even after they say they fixed the grind, I feel like I'm banging my head against a wall because they keep making so many bad decisions and forcing so many limitations on us.
