Lets talk about the failure of the dawning.
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.

The Yawning is what people called it this year and for an event that’s about giving it’s one of the stingiest events with loot. I still managed to get all the rolls I wanted but I had to no live shuro chi and shattered throne final boss to make it worthwhile. The dawning needs a dedicated mode like fotl for players to just grind out and get loot, ingredients, essence, and spirit. Focusing needs a serious discount. The dawning engram option should only cost 1 gift in return. Weapon focusing should cost 10 spirit. When I turn in cookies to vendors I should be getting dawning loot not world drops. Focusing should not be the only way to get the event loot. Plus gifts in return need to drop way more often. The emblems needed to drop from focusing not just opening gifts. You basically had to pick between the emblems and the weapons. Not a fun choice if you don’t no life the event. The bugs and event card debacle ruined the event even more. Hopefully they fix the momento snowball tracker and star baker X3 not showing up for people.
