New player -Won't buy the final shape.

Managed to pump in 250 hours, completed most of the stuff. It's not worth it. There are so many things surrounding the amazing gameplay that is broken. It feels like you are just waiting for the game to go away and don't really care about the feedback people give you. And I agree with most of the feedback being written. There are some things I've snapped up on during these 250 hours that is frankly quite frightening, how the community gets treated. And you want my money? Sorry, you're not getting it. And I think I'm done playing. Managed to get 1828 power. The end game is not rewarding at all.

  • Final Shape isn't for new players sadly, it's for those of us who have been on this damn journey for 10 years, flee while you still can

      I understand the brokeness of the game, it is also kind of hard to drop $180 dollars on a game expansion ( 80 psplus/ 100FS) when all I see is 6 months of game play and nothing to look forward to after that. I may just jump over to xbox and play free content. I won't spend any more money on this game.

    • Sorry to inform you, Bungo don't care if new players like the game or not, this should be blindingly obvious.

      • I’m only buying the base game. They gotta prove the episodes are worth it. Lightfall was a let down like curse of Osiris.

        • Yeah. I'll be playing Final Shape. But I think that's going to be it for me. Bungie want's us to switch to Marathon. I think they actually want us to hate Destiny. I expect Marathon will do about as well as Kill the Justice League. I really, really hope so. Even if it puts Bungie out of business. If Marathon succeeds, gaming as we know it is over. Forget great single player experiences like Ghost of Tsushima or God of War. We will only get PVP battle trash forever.

          • the new player experience has actually gotten worse.. you cant even use mods until a certain level and thats not even the main issue the content is chopped up and shoved together D1 has a way better new player experience new players should go play D1 instead when come into D2 and skip everything im not buying final shape partly cus i want bungie to actually hear me.. its also cus yes the weapons and subclass stuff is cool its not really enough to pull me in most likely i wont need these new weapons and i really dont care about prismatic as far as abilities currently go.. no weighted throwing knife wish that new sniper was a kinetic instead of an energy cus we already have great energy snipers and same for that ikora fusion.. i also wish that fusion had scope options cus its design is clean

            • 9 year player here not even counting my halo days or ninetdo days. I don’t buy the new dlc’s unless they are on sale. I just miss the short story missions I hate these drawn out stories and quests. Plus I only play pvp if that because of forced win/loss games. I’m not even excited about the new dlc

              • The worst part of this game is that there is no Endgame. There aren’t any armor sets or special weapons or weapon mods that STAND OUT compared to the weapons and armors a newbie can get on the first day of playing. We delude ourselves into thinking that Adept guns are so much better when in fact they are barely better than blue weapons. The damage numbers are almost the same; it is unrewarding to play this game. And what would Bungie do if they read this and took it seriously? Nerf blue guns. On top of that, they have “ extra loot” modifiers active such as this week is supposed to drop more BRAVE weapons. Ive been putting in a few hours in Onslaught; NOT A SINGLE SHINY, none for my friend either. We feel like playing just for shinies on a Saturday and seeing none drop is just spitting in our faces. And we all know TFS guns will outperform these anyway. I’m so bored with the loot system in general. I get invites to raids I already have all guns I want from. Ive got thousands of hours in the game and right now can’t think of a single reason to play. Sure, TFS could change that Nightfall have had the same CRAP GUNS for years THAT NOBODY USES, same for Shaxx’ crucible guns, Banshee, Drifter. Core activity weapons that almost all long term players never use once. Laughable. Pathetic. Such good gameplay combined with honestly the worst reward system in any game I’ve played. 99.98% of drops a year one player get is insta delete. Waves and waves of garbage. No endgame because “Oh boy better not give older players good stuff itll upset the players that just bought the game” It is this mentality of equality this sick twisted equality bullshit that makes all the activities feel like -blam!-. Zero Hour? Yeah sure force us to run Legend 2 times a week for the worst traits a gun can have. God forbid you put Rampage on Outbreak. Oh no, extra damage, too OP. Make us run Legend 2 times for Rewind Rounds another hot garbage perk. ./end rant.

                • Lol 250 hours? Most of the us who play only Destiny have 5digit hours and we literally have tried and did anything. Even counting the trees on EDZ ! Discuss lore theories with friends on 4 AM! Here's the hard truth,if you have not done tons of raids,titles,builds,GMs,hoard crazy amount of useless stuff those 250 hours are just tutorial numbers...

                    If you don’t like the game, that’s fine, but don’t act like your opinion is shared with the entire community. Try Hards, Elitists, Streamers, and players like me (I am none of those) all share the opinion that while the game needs work and is not in the best of states, will stay a game that we not only enjoy, but will continue to enjoy. Simply put, you only represent a portion of the community, and a rather small portion at that. How many casuals are there that continue to play this game, are vocal about it, and will continue to play? Not that many.

                        I’m getting the base version and playing the wait and see game because I don’t feel the deluxe is worth it. Dungeons are absolutely not worth spending money on anymore because of how stingy the weapon farm is, and I have no idea what the episodes are going to be like. First deluxe I’m not getting and it’s almost exclusively because of how bad the dungeon reward systems are and have remained for FAR too long.

                      • Well how it turns out this game will be my final send off even if Bungie doesn't want to admit it to us I think D2 is coming to a end or put on the back burner for a small crew to take care of it with episodes while Bungie focus on other projects

                        I'm not a new player I just don't want to buy it because the current community the way it is Players don't want to help new players they want to argue be toxic treat people like garbage in a co op game it's not a good thing. I will probably still buy it but I'm just gonna stay away from a lot of communities in this game I feel like bungee really needs to step up and deal with toxic players. Ex they experienced it on their second stream of final shape they had to ban people off chat for being disrespectful towards developers. Then the whole situation players using the pony code to ruin players time to a point where you have to block friend requests that should be a wake up call for bungie that toxicity needs to be dealt with now not later! So I guess you could say that I believe the issues that you have it's reflecting on everyone not just new players. I know that new light players are gone out of the game because I've been trying to find New Light players to play with not 1 person responded because of these Toxic the social aspect in Destiny is Dead. I can tell you one thing if you go and play destiny 1 you're gonna have a positive experience in destiny! Players in destiny one actually help each other they raid together they wanna make friends they want to have a social environment a positive environment it's not just about playing the game it's about the relationships you make in the game!

                          • [quote]There are so many things surrounding the amazing gameplay that is broken.[/quote] That's because most of the content designed is just pushed out the door to make a profit. They made it loud and clear that pushing content out the door was their priority so I have no reason to support any business that doesn't care about their product, and if they don't care about their product, that is a sure sign they don't care about the people buying their product. This is the huge difference between the original developer and what we have today who had gamers that played their own game and showed they cared about the work they produced. Destiny has had so much potential for being a great game, but the great things about it were used for the wrong reasons, and the people supporting the wrong reason didn't help anyone at all as you can see how many on this forum do support all the bad things about gaming.

                          • bungie don't care if end game has rewards the GM l ran were crap rewards . bungie isn't about rewards its about your drip and how much money you spend at the store . the game will never give gm runners much . bungie isn't about that . it's about the raids it's where they invest the most money . it took me awhile to figure this out .but if your not a raider you should move on to better games. its why I'm only playing the free stuff this game isn't for the main gaming force of players . it's for the few players in the grand scope of things. if Sony ever takes over then it could change .

Gen 1 - 70’s (Ramones/Germs/Clash/-blam!- Pistols) Gen 2 - 80’s (Bad Religion/Misfits/Dead Kennedys) Gen 3 - 90’s (Rancid/Green Day/NOFX/Blink-182) Gen 4 - 00’s (Sum 41/…Good Charlotte 😂) All in all - it’s been a downward spiral in punk aesthetic/culture/attitude since the 90’s. Since, it’s only gotten poppier and….soft… Punk. Is. Dead.
