Bungie you're losing players. Ridiculous grinding
D1Y1 veteran here across multiple accounts and consoles.
It's the first time in over [b]10 years[/b] that when I think about how ridiculous are the decisions made for the progress of power grinding and how the portal works...I honestly prefer doing something else.
Like thousands out there I enjoy raids and dungeons. It's sad that all raids don't drop anything useful, I still run desert perpetual because I enjoy the mechanics and playing with my friends and even teaching, even if I know that the loot is useless for power grinding...but honestly I prefer [b]ANYTHING ELSE[/b] rather than doing Portal activities or worse Heavy Metal until my eyes bleed.
Frankly I don't have all that time to waste and neither my friends who left for Helldivers 2 or Warframe or Borderlands or even Destiny Rising...etc.
It's sad that such bad game design decisions are impacting even the most passionate fans of D2. On top of this, the incoming Nerfs are like gasoline on a burning house.

2 RepliesI am stuck at guardian rank 5, cant get a team together for a conquest. The ingame player search never has people playing the 2 options and lfg is laughable None of my friends who started back in destiny 1 play anymore, I can't play anywhere near as much as I used to due to having a baby and working 50 hour weeks so I get on for maybe 5 hours max a week. I don't expect to be at 450 or max guardian rank but to be stuck at rank 5 for somethingthat doesn'thave matchmaking is ridiculous. Anything that requires you to level up to get a higher rank (except maybe the last 2 ranks) that effects tier drops should be able to be done through matchmaking. Bungle is pretty much destroying the playbase and making the players that still play resent this game .
