I'm rank 30 in the Halloween event, and I think it's because Altars are just fun and chill.
It's not a complicated activity, the difficulty level isn't punishing, it's just a nice, fun, laid back, chill activity. I can set my own goals, like getting revives, or topping the kill list; I can bring nearly any load out I want without worrying about champions or restrictive timers; nobody is there to sweat, most folks are just having fun. The loot isn't even that spectacularly great, it's not external motivation that pushed me to play, it was enjoyment - and besides, I'm pretty sure I got the god rolls I wanted in the first couple of days.
What I'm getting at, just to restate the obvious, is that Haunted Altars of Sorrow is a chill activity, and that's something that Destiny 2 has lacked since the release of Edge of Fate. It's an activity that I can just go into and play around, try out different load outs, not worry about hyper optimization or perfect build crafting.
Renegades needs something like Haunted Altars of Sorrow, somewhere that players can go, chill, and get some good loot. The whole game doesn't need to be like that, but we do need that kind of an outlet.
Whoever came up with the ideas behind HAoS should get a raise (but not a promotion.)

11 RepliesPeople never said that the activity was complicated or difficult on the way every time there's an issue with the game players like you have to bring up the words oh it's difficult so you don't like it's like that's your mechanism to cope with the current State of the game oh people don't like the current State so they probably can't handle the content which the load of bull. Last week most people just did not want to play the event because of the soft lock people did not want to waste 20 to 30 minutes or less to hope and pray that the s*** doesn't lock on them. Frankly I don't know why players aren't fed up at this point you pay money for destiny 2 content they launch an update and it's bugged its glitched they don't test their stuff anymore it's like they don't care what they are doing is a form of that they don't care. They are nothing like the bungee we had for destiny one where they used to play the game all the time they used to stream on twitch playing destiny 1 and enjoy it they don't do s*** like that anymore.. It's no surprise that they lost 80% of their player base.. It's no surprise that last year destiny 2 was the top game to play according to twitch and now it's no longer the top game to play on twitch. Doesn't help that players in this community her so blind like Maga Trump supporters cult leaders who just don't want to admit that the current state of destiny is unacceptable it needs to be fixed or they might as well just close the servers. Logically makes no sense they implement a system like the portal but they don't add additional contact new content... They try to increase the difficulty of the game but they don't improve the rewards think about alternate for sorrows all you get is additional tier 3 engram. Just remember when edge of fake came out that was one of the concerns from professional gamers what's the point of playing on heart difficulties with harder modifiers if the rewards are gonna be garbage...
