Destiny’s silent majority.

[b][u]TL;DR[/u][/b] just a friendly reminder that the folks on these forums giving feedback are actually in the minority of the total concurrent playerbase. Bungie will always prioritize the silent majority over us. Here’s the (really) long version: [spoiler]I’ve seen lots of people throwing around feedback, and just as many people wondering why that feedback “isn’t accepted when 99% of us here agree with it” The fact is that the majority of relatively concurrent Destiny players (everyone from casuals to diehards) do not interact with any of the game’s social channels (including Reddit and the forums) whatsoever, and probably never will. Most of them aren’t here posting complaints. Sometimes that’s a good thing, sometimes it’s a bad thing. I’m not defending Bungie or anyone in particular. I’m just posting this to remind folks that get mad (sometimes reasonably so — no shade from me) at the lack of feedback being implemented when the fact of the matter is that we make up not even 40% of the active community. I’m not going to bother looking up the statistics on the playerbase cuz this vocal minority “phenomenon”, if you want to call it that, applies to pretty much the entire media industry (with some exceptions obviously) and has been a thing for a long time. It’s been exacerbated by social media, but it goes back all the way to the 1950’s. Those exceptions I mentioned? They take place in [i]maybe[/i] 1 in 1,000 businesses. That means the statistical odds are over 1,000 to 1 that Bungie will [i][u][b]never[/b][/u][/i] listen to us like they “listen” to that silent majority. You are quite literally yelling out into the void, and we have [i]decades[/i] of media business practices to confirm this. Please, please, PLEASE do not waste your time here, for your own sake! Go play the game, go outside, enjoy life [insert some eat pray love BS here]. Just don’t spend it here getting mad. [/spoiler]alright, i’m gonna go back to complaining about vault space

  • I really dn't think bungie gives a rats -blam!- about the minority, or the majority.. when looking at our complaints and praise. They look at data analytics and decide from there where they want the numbers to be reflected. Thats it. WE have nothing to do with it except to either play or not play. Its why we all have our own opinion of the state of the game, are playing adn bungie keeps chugging along. They didn't make changes when we all complained about lightfall.. but, they sure did when their sales were horrid. That is the only way to affect change.. your feet, your wallet and if and how much you play.
