For reference, I am a Destiny 1 beta veteran, I also have over 4K hours in Destiny 2.
I want yall to share your story and talk about why you left or still play.
I simply left because of one primary issue, making the raids and other content too difficult to do. PvE sweats will say “Get good.”
Does it really matter to “get good” if the game is dead due to excluding the majority of the player base?
Bungie should know its audience, Bungie should know that shortly after new content release, the “KWTD” post start popping up.
The game should be fun and sadly it has become unenjoyable for me personally.
Clarification - Aztecross didn’t say the game was dead, he read articles about the state of the game and reported. He did express concerns about the player population.
Edit 1, Solution: Make PvE content easy enough that a new player/casual can learn fairly quickly, have one or two mechanics at most and lastly, make raids/dungeons fun, make the guardian look forward to raiding/dungeons. The contents priority should be fun.
Edit 2: GodSlayer title bashing, who cares if I have it? It’s proof that I have done a fair amount of raiding and I still find some of the raids difficult, sad to see the community still be elitist.

Edited by PipeWrench: 12/22/2024 8:23:59 PMThe game has just morphed into a relevant seasonal activity and mediocre loot. Anything beyond that is pointless. Bungie is trying to adjust the loot system to make it work again, but how it looks in the end is unknown. I’m happy they’re trying to shift away from “loot=delete”, but the farm in a boring activity for a low odds roll isn’t going to appeal to many people. I also think the fear of power creep hurts the game too. Instead of adjusting future content to manage the power creep, they focus more on nerfs to make sure nothing ever changes and old content that nobody plays remains a challenge. It’s not really motivating to know that whatever new stuff comes, it will likely only be a lateral movement. (Minus prismatic and the class items. Those gave some fun possibilities for obliterating builds.) I still enjoy some parts of the game but it’s pretty much just the people I play with that keep me in it.
