Sorry if this gets long and ranty.
When I first started playing Destiny 2 with the launch of beyond light the first event I experienced was the dawning. It was something truly magical. The tower decorations, the music, the weapons, even the eververse store was incredible.
It seems like the past couple of dawnings have just been worse and worse. Why no more exotic ornaments for events like the dawning or festival of the lost? I want to spend money but the options are 1 armor set and then ghost shells, ships, and sparrows I will never use. However make those ships act like the starfarer 7m and give extra dawning stuff and I might.
What happened to making weapons that fit the dawning theme? Glacioclasm and cold front look like they come from a special winter event.
Even the old dawning ship (starfarer 7m) was special since it gave extra dawning stuff.
The tower music this year was buggy and weird. It would play for ~1 minute then stop for 3 or so minutes then start the next song.
The emblem quests... Maybe I am wrong but it seems like the only way to get the special emblems was opening the gifts raw and not focusing for weapons? This was awful but I did like the special emblems.
The paid event card upgrade... After the mess up of making it free it probably should have stayed free. It would have felt like a gift to the players who are still playing.

Edited by xbroggiex: 12/31/2024 1:58:45 PMIt actually frustrates me that Bungie released the dawning this year in the state it was. Bugs out the -blam!- with the event card being disabled for a good while though it was funny you could grab it for free(literally the only good part about this disaster of an event.) But WTF is this? Eververse is supposed to "fund destiny" especially its F2P seasonal events and the best they could do to update this event was... ONE NEW GUN (WOAH!!!!) 1 NEW COOKIE RECIPE (WOW 1 PNG FILE AND 1 INTERACTION AT NIMBUS) And that was it, besides more cosmetics you could buy with some earnable there was straight up nothing new about the event as it plays exactly the same as every other year. They can add many cosmetics to Eververse but giving every character a cookie recipe which is just creating a PNG and adding an interaction is over delivery apparently. Oh, that reminds me GILDING EVENT TITLES IS STILL BUGGED AND DOESN'T INCREMENT BY 1! Like how -blam!- lazy are they? Its been an issue for like over a year at this point.
