Longevity of the Game

I'm going to bring up a crucial component of the game that really helped keep player interaction for the individuals that were interested in building new loadouts every major expansion. No new Fragments. No new Supers. No new Aspects. And if I wanted to play my warlock, I have to go through 3 campaigns or pay for a skip. This honestly kills the momentum for myself. I have embarrassingly too much time in this game(20k between hunter and titan). For the few thousand players that are similar minded and still playing the game for the building portion, this expansion will pretty much clear them from the game. I don't see my interest continuing more than a month or 2. I can generally find fun with anything, But the lack of anything new to do with the core mechanics of building, means there isn't a chance to find that fun. I don't know anymore. I think It's time for me to go and switch to turn based rpgs. Atleast with gotcha games, I know disappointment is part of it. Keeps expectations grounded. This was there one chance to drop a new narrative with a subclass, after the dungeon was complete. This would have pulled tons of players back. I guess it was always just copium. I'll still be playing, I just don't see myself playing for an extended amount of time, like with previous expansions.

  • Yea, i just finished my warlocks EoF and i can't do this anymore. (Bought EoF just as Renegade released as it was cheaper together). This campaign is so stuffed with useless puzzles that i just want to close the game instead of playing thru this -blam!- and getting tier 1 weapons lol

  • As a fellow buildcrafting enthusiast, I'd like to harp on your sentiments here, albeit from a different angle. Having to refarm my entire soft sunsetted Vault (especially armor) put the nail in the coffin for myself. The way Bungie neglected Prismatic over the course of TFS by never introducing new Aspects, Abilities or Fragments was the real shame! That subclass has the potential to slowly absorb every existing entity in the base game. Let me Shield Bash on Prismatic with Banner of War active followed by a Thundercrash with Healing Grenade to disengage. While I understand how sandbox breaking that would be, Bungie had the opportunity to trickle these entities into Prismatic and keep that evolution for years!

  • That part about clearing the rest of tbe old content to fully unlock a characrer hits home. Destiny campaigns have ranged from decent to out right bad, especially when compared to other games. Now it is almost impossible to fully complete the Final Shape due to the excision issue. I cannot be bothered to ginish up my hunter and I am defintely NOT paying Bungie for the campaign skip.

  • No. We should have gotten resonance/luster in The Final Shape. Instead, we got Prismatic and that ruined everything.
