You don't really need a vendor refresh....stuff from vendors is usually always broken down for shards or Infusion. It's only ever useful on your way to level up.
We get more content through the season pass than we have ever gotten through the dlc model.
Seriously? After all the reskin reskin reskin accusations you want them to bring back D1?
This season we got
The Dungeon is Shadowkeep only, you don't get it if you just have the season.
Ehhh if you're serious about destiny and it's your main game, you probably have shadowkeep.
The talk was about seasons though and how they are the new way of delivering content.
I don't see it and dismiss it as recycled content. There was nothing better than going to a area with friends and instantly having memories of the hours we spent there. Story wise it makes sense to go there. Plus why would we ignore the closest threat to earth?
D1 had no point of reference. It as all new, so there was nothing to cry about when assets were re-use, yes I'm going to ignore House of Wolves.
This is where the real discussion should be. The real effect Activision had was simplifying the game, they were the driving force behind the state D2 launched in with the slowed down meta. They wanted it to be more accessible. Staying with Activision meant internal debates about design.
What? Armor 2.0 is fantastic. There's so much more choice to how you build your character. And the cosmetics are fantastic because if you get a great roll on a piece of armor you don't love, you can make it look great.
Do you mean that Destiny should have no Bungie at all, or that you wish Activision was still the publisher with Bungie as the main Developer? Bungie, in my opinion, needs to be the one behind Destiny. Now would Destiny benefit from Activisions Money? Probably. The extra development help they got from VV and HMS did a lot for the game. I don't know if Eververse would be gone or less intrusive, that's always hard to tell. Activsion seemed pretty unhappy with Destiny, they did let Bungie break contract early, which seems to tell me they were happy to let them go. So Activision would have probably wanted them to drum up more cash somehow, and Bungie would have defaulted to more Eververse. Plus Activision had hard deadlines, which as a publisher is understandable, but that an cause subpar dlc because things get rushed out. I honestly can't say it's better off or not, but I am curious to see if they can keep Destiny going by themselves.
Just the stuff OP pointed out. Eververse focus, lack of vendor refresh (this was something that, back in D1, even the B tier expansions like TDB and HoW got), re-skinned gear again.
Destiny PvP balancing has always been handled poorly, so hardly anything to do with Bungo being independent there. OEM went like a full year being the untouchable king of Titan exotics in PvP when they were under Acti, now (though the broken Artifact mods are a big reason) there's some strong builds that use other exotics now, Synthoceps with thunder coil being impressively OP in the right circumstances.
So you're just going to bump your own thread every time Bungie does something you don't like, is that how this is gonna be? Look at the poll, take the L, and maybe accept this game isn't for you any more.
