Where do we even start?
1. New armor system looks novel at best. Obviously everyone will run CC sets then swap to Weapon heavy sets for DPS
2. Portal looks lazy and the activities shown aren’t new. Just a re issue of the content we have been playing for years. Also. will likely hold nothing of value for endgame players. Experience or content wise.
3. New weapon system looks incredibly mid. No one cares about 3 perks on a gun except to enhance the chance at getting the god roll. I have tons of multi perk guns and very rarely switch. Bungie has and will nerf the truly OP combos a la edge transit. Enhanced barrels don’t matter in PVE, + picking barrels is more important than enhancing them.
4. New leveling and reset system looks absolutely -blam!-. Leveling through old activities is not new content, plain and simple.
I’m not overly concerned, but I do feel like this next expansion may actually tank the game. The momentum from FS is basically the only thing sustaining it currently. A lot of these systems are a soft sunset or a regression to what drove the #s down in the first place. I can’t think of a single new thing I’m looking forward to. If this is a Sony controlled Bungie I have even less hope for the game than I did before.
Lastly, having CCs drop the information to avoid backlash is pure comedy. That’s when know they are dodging what they perceive as guaranteed backlash lol but hey… got those pre orders with the SW ornaments right??????

There is nobody steering this boat we are on called Destiny. We have competing groups of programmers. One controlled by what streamers want. The other by management always pushing for the new shiny hoping for another fat bonus. We want this boat to be a great ride. But instead we got leaks everywhere and too many shouting fire. With a band playing mariachi one minute and grunge rock the next in the background. Hopefully the leaks get plugged and band gets tired. I paid for this ride and hopefully I will have fun.
