1. Get rid of the portal. 2. Everything goes trough the director/Destinations as it was originally 3. Get rid of Tier weapons. Endgame loot/ hard content provides best loot chance with shiny variants super rare 4. Invest in core playlist (crucible, strikes, gambit) 5. Make awesome loot obtainable from content not Eververse 6. Stop collating with so many different things. Game looks like Fortnite. And that is horrible. 7. Make exotics rare again. No longer handouts. Make them earn able through rare exotic bounties like in D1 or by RNG. 8. Stop raining soooo much loot in low level content. 9. Destiny 1 does a perfect job with loot 10. Make it a multiplayer game again (Not constant solo stuff)

  • Also make strikes/story’s straight forward not filled with puzzles and nonsense. Same with raids they overdid the mechanics thing. D1 had simple mechanics. Also scrap sbmm it doesn’t work. People who want it don’t even play often and it sucks for guys like me because I have to deal with it all the time as a daily player.

    • The one thing I disagree with is the exotics for a specific reason: They can't make exotics rare again unless they revamp the stat system again. People need to realize exotics became common because bungie wanted to add grinding to exotics. In d1 you had like a 1/3 chance of getting the roll you wanted on an exotic. Before the stat changes it was like 1/200 now it's closer to 1/80 but that's still WAY higher than D1. We can't exactly have the D1 system where you might get *1* exotic a day in this type of system.

      • I want all bounties back—removing half of it didn't bring me nearer to the Portal. It's just annoying!

        • They tanked the game deliberately. They knew the Portal was bad for the game, this has been proven when they scrapped the idea of a Portal long before the game even launched. The game died when metrics became more important than content, when response was more important than quality, when they chose not to over-deliver, when they decided to milk any loyalty left in their consumers. I'd love to see the game improve and be fun again, but I not holding my breath.

            Exotic weapons are by no means a handout, even when it is tied to a quest As for exotic armor, I could delete it all this instant, would that make you happy? I don't understand why some players are so attached to scarcity, and are in sorrow that other players have exotics (you want them for yourself, but don't want others to have any)

            • Would this include returning to the original dev team? I don't see the stuff involving the portal happening any time soon.

            • People still playing aren’t playing for loot. That should inform remodeling. Too much focus on loot is why the game is in this mess. Loot is why trials doesn’t work, it’s why people would rather cheese raids than run them as intended, it’s what lead to rarity tiers, and it’s why we have the portal— “choose how you want to be rewarded.” But nobody wants to come back just for loot.

              Unfortunately none of that will happen, it's end of days now, it's near. D1 does a perfect job with loot? I'm currently level 385 in D1, played a lot, still getting greens & blues only, not seen a legendary. That's far from perfect, running strikes that take 25 mins Vs bullet sponges with blue guns

                Agree with everything but point #3. I am of the opinion that useful loot should be readily available at all levels of the game, and endgame loot should consist of prizes that upgrade your Guardian's aesthetic. Don't force players into activities they dislike for useful loot. Give multiple options to obtain useful loot, and make it abundant.

                  • I'm seeing suggestions for structural changes. What you're interested holds alot of shared perspective with myself. You might possibly appreciate this. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/265189620

                  • Sadly the only way they can do all of this is to make D3. After doing a complete replay from scratch of D1 and D2 (whats left of it anyway), with a new account, i can say that the loot system was waaaaay better in D1. After hitting lvl 40, at 282 light i got my first exotic and i just wanted to use it everywhere, it felt so special in the middle of a loadout of blues and greens. D2 gave me purples right from the get go, and after less than 1hr i already had 3 exotics. That's the best way to destroy loot incentive in a looter shooter imo.

The soul reason I didn’t buy eof or renegades was because they removed adept weapons from trials……like wtf is the point of trials anymore if there isn’t adept weapons when you go flawless.
