Leveling system is ridiculous. The Whole game is ridiculous actually!

I am not sure how Bungie came up with the idea that this type of leveling is good. It is horrible. I have to spend weeks or even months if i have a life, of grinding the same few lost sectors. The idea of raids and dungeons apparently just left the building and team play is a distant memory now. It takes forever to level up and when you do there is nothing else TO DO because the content is missing and the old content is not revamped. On top of all, old weapons and armors are not so viable anymore compared to the new ones. This is just shadow sunsetting and it pisses me off. There is no reason to go to vendors anymore since reputation is deleted from the game. Now you when you play activities, you don't feel rewarded for your time because there is no progression at the vendors with extra rewards. I don't know why Bungie did all this but now this game does not feel like Destiny anymore.

  • Leveling used to be something that happened naturally as you did a bunch of different activities and chased the new loot. Now, you have to play the same two missions over and over and over and over again just to get to a level where you can actually have the new gear drop at the higher tiers. "But, you don't need tier 4-5 gear." This argument is empty and meaningless. None of the gear is [i]needed[/i]. If they designed a system that allowed us to upgrade our gear to different tiers through grinding for materials and I could only upgrade it to tier 3 because I don't want to play Master and GM content, I'd be fine with that, because at least I would have investment. Locking the tiers behind power and guardian ranks is just plain engagement bait. And then, being forced to play higher difficulty content just to level up is the complete opposite of their second favorite quote, "play your way" (first being, "we're listening").
