A hard reset isn’t the answer

My first post, apologies in advance for any errors. While a good few of you are calling for a hard reset (such as a Destiny 3), it isn’t the best idea. Realistically, a Destiny 3 would divide the player base even further than it already is by way of removing nearly half a decade’s worth of content, collections, feats, and accolades. Not only would the upper echelons of guardians most likely move on to other titles, the everyday Steve would very likely not want to put up with having to start from square one and work their way back up to where they were. While starting from scratch could have its benefits (potential engine update*, old bugs happening to be fixed by way of starting from scratch**, and possibly dropping old-generation consoles.) who’s to say that all of the bugs and glitches that we’ve dealt with for so long won’t return? I believe that the best solution is to stay with Destiny 2, rather than making a new installment. If they were to drip-feed (stay with me) us quality (stay with me) content over an extended period of time, it could give them the time they need to fully address some of the more pressing issues, such as the dreaded missing character model bug. Another good idea could be a page, be it on the internet or in-game, that explains many different important concepts (the mod system, buildcrafting, and how to pass the ball within “The Corrupted”.) that a new light would most likely need to know. TL;DR for all of you who don’t care to read that much (can’t blame you): While a Destiny 3 may seem like a great idea, its cons would outweigh its pros. *I haven’t the foggiest how this works **we all know that they would most likely reuse code from D2, causing similar issues to what we’re facing now to arise Feel free to share your thoughts, discuss, and contemplate whatever you choose. Edit 1: This will most likely be edited later on as I discover small mistakes I’ve made.

    I feel like if there ever is a d3, it needs to be completely separated from where destiny is currently. Have be outside the solar system with new characters and new gear. As you said, no one wants to essentially reearn everything they already had, so unless it was completely disconnected from d1 and d2 aside from some minor parts, it probably wouldn't either work well or even generate anyone wanting to pre-order it to play it. They should also make it have some form of time skip from where the last episode they do ends. And having it made with all new characters, both npc and player, they would not only need to write new stories for the npcs, but they could also introduce both new player character races and/or new abilities and classes. I also think leaning more into MMO rpg character building would benefit it more, too.
