Deej, Coz, Luke Smith...
Whomever is out there.
Please realize the #1 complaint about this game is that effort and time drastically outweigh the frequency of drops for your end-game content. Destiny's economy has been nerfed over and over and over again. It takes hours of farming just to upgrade ROUTINE guns, not even the special stuff. A 2+ hour raid can land you with ZERO raid drops and often without any drops that help your character progress. You have randomized the quality of the item without adjusting for the rate of its drop.
It all boils down to turning destiny into a 2nd job. And it's not one that people are going to stick with for the next 6 months if all of these micro grinds continue to lengthen. We're all just waiting for you to start up the pay-to-win XP boosts, item drop boosts, hell maybe even actual engram packs or something from Eververse. It seems inevitable with how much longer it takes to do ANYTHING in this game anymore.
Please, pay attention to your community. [b]Your livelihood DEPENDS on it.[/b]
At least quests are good where they are.

Fallout 4. Bloodborne: The Old Hunters. Star Wars: Battlefront. Helldivers: Democracy Strikes Back. Dark Souls 3. Destiny is up against a host of great games this season, and it's only going to get worse. One might think, given the absolute shitstorm that occurred during the infamous nonsense that transpired during The Dark Below (which caused a similar mass player exodus), Bungie would have learned their lesson and never done that again. You would be wrong. Bungie elected to make it even worse than it was at Dark Below, not only negating all progress but making the grind infinitely worse than before. I don't have a single person on my friend list with a light level over 302 because shit just won't drop at all for us. The bulk of us are trapped in the level 290-300 no-man's land where you can only raid or Osiris for better gear, and yet the game likes throwing level 280-or-so stuff at you because that's what you totally ran a barrage of raids for. Whoever's responsible for the new drop system is cordially invited to fornicate themselves with a Sunbreaker's hammer.
