I have lost the motivation to play…
Congratulations Bungie. You did it. You have officially killed my desire to play after years and several (SEVERAL!) thousand hours of play. Been here since day 1 of D1 and what little fun I was having has been completely sucked out of this game. What a shame. The story was great. But the gameplay and increased difficulty garbage is the antithesis of fun. I’m not quitting (yet) but I think I’ll be playing FAR less than I used to until something is fixed or I lose interest altogether.

8 RepliesMatterspark - annoying - and covered in depth in many posts, so much so Bungie is forced to change it. The new portal - content is totally restrictive and rewards are NOT rewarding. Even exotics are dropping at less than 60 base stat points, making them less appealing. Staring over at an I-Level of 10 is terrible. No way am i grinding that crap to what ever cap is 2 and 3 point of i-level at a time. It is not like playing a mission gets you gear 10 or 20 points of i-level at a time. TOO MUCH GRIND! Everything has to be customized, adding time and effort just to launch an activity, and quick play will not let you return to orbit at the report screen after you finish an activity, it just ports you t the next quick play. Too much focus on having to play the hardest content ALL the time. Streamers and elites wanted this; they got it and now Bungie has the lowest first day numbers EVER of a D2 expansion release day. Not looking good. They could put it on sale for half price right now and players would still not spend the money!
