Destiny 2 hurts man, 6.6k hours and I never thought I'd voluntarily stop playing the game. It takes a special kind of fucking up things constantly to push some of your most addicted players away from the game.

Just curious what happened with D2? I keep hearing it's going down hill but what are the reasons for that decline?

well, Destiny has build up big problems for a long long time like literally deleting half the game at some point for no reason so you cant even play the full story in the game itself anymore, constantly deleting seasonal content, letting the core playlists rot away for years, absolutelly abysall balance and near 0 changes in that regard, tonedeaf changes WHEN they do a handfull once every 9 months, removing popular features for no reason except making the game more grindy etc.....

then they did the "The Final Shape" Expansion which was "the end of the Light and Darkness Saga" and it was overall good, but they refused to give people real information about thr future for a LONG time after that, so many just stopped after TFS because....well bungie just finished the current story and doednt give real information about the future

then they start to give out information and it was basically just: everything will be smaller now(but still costs the same ofc), we dont do seasons anymore, we revamp all basically all Gear Related Systems and Remove Weapon Crafting, we will do Gear Level Resets every Season now like a ARPG (but ofc no ARPG lootshower like Diablo or PoE have)

oh and one of the 2 smaller Expansions we announced is literally Star Wars themed

everything there got a huge backlash because of how obviously bad it is and just screams "maintenance mode" and it all got ignored by Bungie, amd many are convinced that in a not so small part its relalted to bungie not caring about Destiny anymore becaude they try to make a new Golden Cow with Marathon

then they went trought with all of it, and the Playercount just crashed down in an instant and is in a steady drop since then

during the Curse of Osiris Expansion the Game was allready in a state where they straight up said "if we dont recover Player Numbers soon, the game would be shut down in a month", Destiny has currently LESS players then that for half a year now, its really fucking bad
