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.

Do you even know what you’re saying “Stick with Destiny 2” We’ve been fed the same boring events since launch (Well no, they’ve actually gotten much worse) The same guns based off of green and blue weapons for years now with perks that barely changed/do anything Armor sets that are absolutely horrible looking, few examples are the seasonal sets and the new raid set (yikes) Having seals instead of rewards that benefit your gameplay The worst and I mean the absolute worst “cash shop” I’ve seen , how can a company with so many employees and such budgets design SUCH UGLY ornaments. I know everything is a taste but bungie has no taste, D1 had cool armor sets and D2 is what I feel like and has been just trying random -blam!- out to see if it scores. Also endless waves of sparrows noone gives a -blam!- about. The only thing worthwhile are the weapon ornaments but those aren’t special either as they release for bright dust a few weeks later The same strikes for years ; we have a so called endgame and it’s gm’s, master raids and expert versions of things. This is no endgame, it’s the same -blam!- but slightly harder with guaranteed adept loot. Adept loot that besides the name offers almost nothing extra compared to normal loot. Which brings me to my next point The whole game is about achievements, bragging. Its not about collecting cool guns from a real endgame grind, no, this is a dad rifle simulator with the HEAVIEST aim assist of any shooter on the market. You think its honorable to have went flawless so many times on roller with a stacked team and meta loadout? Bros be hitting headshots while aiming 2 meters next to heads. Or that you learned the mechanics to a raid which takes about 30 minutes and can now run said raid? People here think that’s so special. There is 0 skill involved in the actual gunplay. There is nothing hard about Destiny 2, it’s all a big checklist to mark off that costs huge amounts of time. Then the guns, or again, while they’re mostly based off of green guns they also do the exact same damage green guns do. Except for exotics they do 40% more… to redbars!!! Innovation!!!! I could go on and on, but this whole game looks and feels so good while everything above just ruins it completely. It’s as if they went to Bungie *puts on tinfoil hat* and said “guys, this stuff is too good, make it so that its a huge meaningless unrewarding grind. Let them not be truly happy. All loot must be mediocre and mediocre looking”
