Bungie has nothing to show in the TWIDs because there is nothing in EoF

[b]Fellow Guardians,[/b] I'm honestly baffled that Bungie still hasn’t addressed our concerns or given any real answers about the massive sunsetting of Destiny 2 content that's coming. What we’re seeing looks like a complete failure in Bungie’s management. They laid off hundreds of developers, and many of the ones -blam!- were reassigned to work on Marathon. It’s painfully clear that Bungie has little to show for the upcoming Edge of Fate (EoF) expansion—simply because there haven’t been enough developers focused on it full-time. Instead, they’ve implemented what feels like a deliberately grind-heavy system—an "evil hamster wheel"—to keep us busy without offering meaningful content. No new raids, no dungeons, no new subclass. Just the bare minimum. We only have six armor sets, and the Rite of the Nine event? That feels like a joke. Now, with Marathon reportedly delayed, it’s likely even more Destiny 2 developers will be shifted away to help with that project. That’s not good news for us. Be cautious about the upcoming Star Wars expansion. It looks like a trap—designed to generate massive revenue with minimal actual content. One flashy weapon type, likely a lightsaber, will be the centerpiece, probably locked behind a dungeon and buried in another exhausting grind. Let’s be honest—we saw the writing on the wall when The Final Shape launched and Luke Smith left. That was the beginning of the end for D2. We just love the game too much to admit it. It pains me to say this, but I’ve uninstalled the game and canceled my pre-order. Until Sony fully steps in and breathes life back into the franchise, I don’t see anything to be excited about for the next 6 to 12 months.

    With any game, if you buy for day one, there’s a risk the game will suck. If there’s concern that you won’t like it, don’t buy it until there’s more information on it. This isn’t a developer problem, it’s a lack of self control problem. I know because I’ve bought a lot of disappointing games for day one in my life. The soft sunsetting thing I don’t think will be as bad as it’s make out to be. Maybe it will be, but we don’t have enough info on things other than people’s opinions. Historically in this game there’s very few reasons to grind out anything because the differences in weapons are fairly marginal. Unless it’s for a DPS meta outlier in PvE or the latest PvP crutchy weapon, people will be fine not doing things they don’t want to do just because somebody on the internet says “this is the god roll you have to go for”. I’d like to see the expansion be great and something I want to buy and play, but I’m willing to wait until release to find out.
