Passive aggressive inappropriate tone from Deej and other Bungie employees

Ive been noticing an increase in the amount of disrespect from bungie employees on community forums. Just look at todays weekly update and the extremely snarky and sarcastic comments from Deej such as "omg he only has 1600 weapon parts left we need to do something" and "we hold the right to do anything with the game economy we want." Does anyone else think snarky comments like this are very unprofessional? Like Bungie you act like your some sort of hero for fixing a problem that YOU created. Here is a comment from another post that explains my thoughts perfectly, all credit goes to user Wahrnye "Just another joke of a weekly update that makes it easier to not look back on this game going forward. Announcing the weapon parts change - Fine, but that's a fix to a problem THEY created. And when addressing the fact that THEY created this problem, DeeJ wraps it up in unnecessary snark about being curators of THEIR living world. Hubris to the highest degree; it's almost as if they're saying how dare we question their choices? Let me say this next part slowly so the apologists can understand: [i][u]Etheric Light and Wormspore uses should have been in the game since September's launch, not something coming soon by December.[/u][/i] They knew Etheric Light was a thing that many people had plenty of and they also introduced Wormspore (apparently) without any regard for what to do with it outside a few weapon upgrades. IIt's going to take them almost 3 months to finally make these things meaningful? These are all issues they created by poor planning or bad oversight, not something they should be praised for fixing AFTER the fact. The rest of the entire update was about the same tired PVP bullshit as almost every other weekly update. No news on new content, no commenting on the terrible loot system - especially in regards to raid drops (I love doing the raid and getting a fourth duplicate item at 302 light... ) - or the fact that Nightfalls, Strikes, and Court of Oryx ceases being rewarding once you reach 300 light or more. I've seen this playbook before. Between this and Activision spouting off their easily manipulated "registered user" numbers (aka 'investor math'), they've pretty much already decided they're going to pander to the base players who believe Bungie can never, ever, do any wrong. Nothing will change going forward. Bungie and Activision are living in their own echo chamber - as evidenced by the fact that they spend more time conversing with the "community" on Bungie-friendly outlets like Reddit and Twitter..." EDIT: A lot of you seem to think im just looking for something to be offended by cuz im a "no balls toxic loser" Its more im just fed up with the bullshit direction this game is taking like timegating exotics that i already payed for to extend gameplay time and patching things like weapon parts for no -blam!-ing reason Perhaps the most irritating thing is the bungie fanboys and dickriders who will stop at nothing to defend everything the devs do to this game and every word that comes out of that douchebag known as Deej's mouth. Go ahead meet me with ninja justice for stating the obvious about your shit company and bottomfeeder fanboys EDIT2 It seems the common defense for Deejs tone is "oh bungie has to go through so much shit and complaining on the forums, people are meanies" You people cant seriously believe its ok for a company to retaliate in this fashion. Oh no a game developer has to see negative feedback about the game they made wahh wahh prayers for bungie" All of you are saying "can the entitled/offended generation go away", if you ask me the people defending bungie with this mindset are the "offended generation." Some of you say, "The customer is always right bullshit has to stop." Anyone who utters this is a complete moron and has either no concept of business ethics or is 15 years old and thinks they are being righteous and hip. Go ahead, start a business and whenever a customer has a problem with you or the product, tell them to -blam!- OFF. Yea thats a good business model, you will surely succeed.

    • There's always been sarcasm in the updates in one form or another. Because you are offended by said sarcasm, it should not exist? I don't think so. I think someone needs to calm down, and stop looking for a fight. Weapon parts and worm spore are the reason you're angry? Just play something else, and please, don't look back.

    • You need to get a job or go to school or something. You spent way too much time making this butthurt. Stop crying, get over it, and just generally stop being such a pain. Thanks.

    • I partially agree with your post, however, as a long time manager over what are essentially entitled babies, there comes a point when you have to put your foot down, and inform said people that they aren't entitled to a damn thing. Secondly, it's called continuous improvement. Bungie set a 10 year goal, and they are making improvements as they collect more and more data. To me, coming from a manufacturing background, it makes perfect sense. We make improvements at work, and we encounter all sorts of whining and bitching, until... The babies see how well the improvement is. To be truthful, not 100% of said improvements are worthy, so the babies get to continue gloating about how right they were. It's a win a lot - lose a few battle. I see the same thing happening here. Now, my agreement with you and many others, is the feeling I get when the forums and social media are flooded with constructive feedback that is consistently ignored. Be snarky all you want Bungie, it's your game, but don't be snarky if you aren't going to acknowledge viable feedback from your consumers.

    • He is disrespectful to the people playing this game. His attitude has been like that from the start. These people like Deej and Luke Smith have no business talking to the public as they are snide and show their disdain for the average user.

    • Your point may be valid, that's still up for debate. But the way you've just unloaded on bungie like a child having a tantrum pretty much negates any point you were trying to make. You're doing exactly what you've just criticized them for, come back with a cool head and well constructed argument.

    • Yes, and deej has been like that [i]forever[/i]. That doesn't justify his tone however, as it's degrading to the player base.

    • If you are that easily offended, that's just sorry. Listen, you don't like the game, don't play it. You don't like the way they do things, don't play it. You don't like the timegated exotics, don't -blam!-ing play it. This is their world, that we are playing in, you don't like their world, go somewhere else. Why post it on the forums, we are all already aware.

    • Disagree, unlike everybody bitching about it, Deej has his head in the real world, and in context, the rage over something as silly as weapon parts is insane. Bungie is viewing the problem like adults, kids/teenagers/man boys are not because the only thing in their life is Destiny.

      • I completely agree, I think Deej is an awful person, he lacks pride, he has no spine, he constantly spouts garbage and lies that he knows are wrong and he does for it some dollar. It is actually embarrassing watching him.

      • Well let's be fair here, if you didn't know Deej was a -blam!- before this, you haven't really been paying attention. He's always been like that.

      • I noticed that, he sounded snarky to me too. Maybe Deej is sick of the complaints on the forums, but if he is he should quit his job because reading those complaints [b]is his job![/b]

      • So true ...I loved this game, but it has become a chore. I really don't have fun playing this game anymore. it's sad because I can say I loved the old Destiny better..yes I got all the exotics fast and got all my raid gear fast, but it was fun as hell and I enjoyed grinding Templar 3 times because I wanted a Fate Bringer on all my characters. I wanted to kill atheon 3 times because I wanted the Vision on all 3 characters. Now Bungie killed all of that because they don't want you beating the end content so fast and get bored. Me being a working family man, TTK is not geared towards the working gaurdian because I don't have time to grind the way Bungie wants us to now...before TTK it was perfect....anyway I can go on for hours but nobody cares anyway lol.
