I am trying my best to enjoy this game as it is, but I find myself frustrated and uninspired.
I have seen every high and low of this game, but this feels different, a shell of what Destiny was even a few months ago. The reasons are clear, there are countless posts with details already.
I saw the vision initially, in practice, I am constantly being restricted and the path forward does not make it any better, just more restriction.
Also, fireteam finder sucks. I spend a stupid amount of time waiting for someone to accept me in, then hope people ready up, then hope the fireteam leader starts it before someone leaves, then hope someone doesnt leave. Starting your own team is a little better, but similar problems persist.

I still enjoy the gaming loop. Shooting aliens is fun, supers are fun - but having 300 adds on you at once in low gravity with a gun that takes 30 seconds to reload while shelling out damage 5 at a time is starting to wear on me... I deal just enough damage to not kill an add, am just close enough to be shot by a sniper and facing just the right way for an enemy to spawn behind me...none of that feels good...and it's all by design... Limited revives, timers, exploding ammo - all of these are lazy ways to make a game seem challenging without doing anything...
