I liked this season, it was fun and I'm wondering what next season will be like

i live to be manscaped

You definitely know how to do a sponsor justice haha yes yes zone 🤣🤣🤣

Its not even inherent to shooters. They definetly can cover serious topics. Its just that Bungie really went all in on making tiny storybeats a weekly occurence that revolves around you killing stuff

But "kill as many things as you can to make Eris stronger" wasn't really a thing. All you did was complete the checklist. It's not like me actually killing 5 million enemies really did anything versus someone else killing 3 million enemes.

@@beng6149 I'll still take that over "clear out this bunker 10 weeks in a row to find out Rasputin was a bad father"

@@beng6149that’s true for every season activity

Dude. Stuff like that can't happen. People just find an exploit and beat it in a day anyway as shown with season of plunder. Exploiters and dataminers ruin cool stuff like that. It is what it is.@@beng6149

Lmao the 4:03 one was funny to me

.... Dear sweet fuck you're right... We even got a Magical Transformation Shader from Festival of the Lost.

and a magical girl ghost

What on earth you on about? 🤔

Content Creator has now told me how to feel, time to play the game & have fun! 😊

@@vari2d347 this guy gets it!

@johnathanfisher3816 i hope you can get it done in the 19 hours before the new season starts

@@jasonrolley2224 What do you mean? Why can't he play season of the witch while season of the wish is the current season?

But saltagreppo said it sucks. My opinion is better than yours since it adds more challenge to the game

WItch? Definitely Deep? Maybe Defiance? Definitely not

Don’t be mistaken we did that. The community has done this. Bungie has been horrified of power creep because our response for sunsetting was one of the biggest tantrums I’ve ever seen from a gaming community. So now we get no new interesting loot from anything

Honestly crafting ruins a-lot of the fun too I don’t care about actually getting loots because I can just craft it later. I hope we get some form of sunsetting in the future so powerful stuff can be faded out and replaced

@@dylanmiller1140 Sunsetting is never going to happen again given the nearly two year long tantrum that ensued from it occurring the last time. At this point there's little likelyhood of Bungie reversing their 'No Sunsetting' stance, players have just gotta eat crow as the old saying goes.

The lack of empathy for bungie is astounding. They've literally made all of our elemental guns into AOE clearing monsters. They've added some of the highest DPS perks possible. Kinetic tremors exists. With the current perk pool, where do you go from here? How can you even innovate? We can't ask for more and better because all of the best stuff exists. Sunsetting would help, sure, but we've already seen the summit. This is the most powerful our guardians have ever been. Sure, there is probably room for innovation in there somewhere. But we are at the borderlands cheeseburger gun levels of ridiculous at this point. They could be wacky and add status effect legendary guns that make mobs stunned, poisoned or sleep, etc. But why do that when you can blow everything up with incandescent. And it's our fault for throwing a communal fit about sunsetting all those years ago. So I don't know what to tell you man. If the game infuriates you and you don't like playing the seasons anymore. Maybe D2 just isn't the right fit anymore brother 🤷

I think you still can though? Unless you meant getting it along with everyone else. Pretty sure it doesn't go away until TFS comes out

You can still complete the Seasonal Quests, fellow Lightbearer!

Honestly that's more of an issue on shitty youtubers putting spoilers in the title and thumbnail then anything else.

@@elixir478 Very true. Screw all of them

Normally I’d agree but bungie themselves spoiled it relatively quickly this time around. I assume it’s because they were /are getting a lot of slack for the firing coverage and wanted to deflect some of the negative coverage. Sadly that means that the info was basically broadcast immediately lol. But yea shitty KZfaqrs ruining surprises for a thumbnail does suck.

IF A HERETIC BREATHS NEXT TO BEAN IT WILL SUFFER SWORD LOGIC

@@Ineedbout3fiddy i dont think that a reveal for a season that has been in development for at least a year could be made haphazardly as a response to feedback thats been made less than a month ago we'd still get the season 23 reveal when the final imbaru engine puzzle came out, regardless of layoffs happening or not

I agree with this. A ton of lackluster weapons with no meaningful loot chase. I hope next season we get better weapons and like you said, something more to do with wish engrams

Not to mention that they give us loot, and then it just like stops which is demoralizing. Going from getting tons of things to getting nothing makes me quit playing.

Weapons got a full rework this season on top of us getting banger after banger weapons in other places for content all over destiny. Since the seasonal weapons will forever be craftable making them best in slot every season will just accelerate power creep which will lead to even more artificial difficulty in pve and EVEN MORE braindead play in pvp. It's literally not healthy for the game to do that. That's without considering sunsetting left us with no options for weapon types so we had to wait to get something like a good void scout, now we have a raid option and a good seasonal one so whether you're an endgame player or a casual one you have build crafting options with similar feel but unique perks. I'm not saying every weapon slaps because you can't pay me to use the seasonal lmg but they all have a place because not everyone plays raids and dungeons or farms godrolls from the core playlists. They are more options instead of the BEST option out the box.

Apologies, this turned into a much longer comment than I meant it to be. If you just read the first 2 paragraphs since those are the ones replying to your comment I fully understand. (I get out of control sometimes on things im passionate about lul) this is the problem though because 1. abilities have powercrept so much for the last few years that weapons are becoming less and less important overall and 2. no sunsetting means that the only way to make people interested in new weapons is making things that are straight up better than what we already have, at that point power creep is just gonna start spiraling out of control and worst case you might wind up like Diablo 3 did where we had gotten so powerful that the game straightup couldnt scale high enough to maintain difficulty. The issue you point out is clearly one of the reasons playercounts are down but its part of a much more deeply rooted problem and releasing better and more exciting weapons is a bandaid fix that's gonna create much bigger problems down the line My personal opinion is that they should rely much more on artifact mods to power creep us in seasons because unlike weapons they'll go away after 3 months. Remember back in y4? We had mods like breach&clear and particle deconstruction, mods that changed the meta for their respective seasons, that made the game alot more replayable because even old content now played completely different with the balance changes those mods brought. (This is also part of the reason why the crafting bug weekend saw some of the highest player counts we've had in a long time, it completely changed how the game played. Should it have been kept in the game? no of course not it completely broke everything. But was it fun to mess around with for a while before returning to your regular programming? hell yes it was.) Ever since Witch Queen except for maybe Volatile flow no artifact has had that kind of impact on a seasons weapon meta and combined with no sunsetting it means that the only things people are interested in chasing are the weapons that are just straight up better than what's already in the game. Is meta changing artifact mods also just a bandaid fix on a more deeply rooted problem surrounding player retention? Yeah it probably is. However unlike just releasing stronger and stronger weapons each season this bandaid won't cause additional problems down the line since if a mod is too strong and breaks the game, its gone in 3 months anyways.

The last meaningful loot you say was added is literally an old gun they slapped new perks and crafting on. Insane. How deep will the laziness go

I would find it so much more enjoyable to engage with it as a mechanic if I knew what each card did. Season of the Deep made it so the game would tell you exactly what buff you were getting, not sure why they didn’t do the same thing for Witch

I found it completely inconsequential. The only card that was remotely noticable was the one that granted extra heavy drops. If two+ people got that at the same time, everyone could use their heavy as a primary. Outside of that, the effects were too minor to matter. I'm already surviving and killing without the buffs, so occasionally getting a boost of health or damage didn't make any difference

Eris was awesome

@@drkillbrew6387 Clearly someone hasn't played with The Lie activated. Nigh Infinite Banner of War Flechette Storm, i.e. Titan Blade Barrage, is fun.

I want them in a special Crucible Mode. As Kill Streaks.

If I recall right, Season of Opulence also had something like this. Had hidden lore bits that you could find after completing a run, which is why there was like.... 122+ seconds at the end of mission.

I legit look forward to those vids lmao. I don't look forward to much on youtube. The group chemistry is just perfect lol

yup i made it to season pass lvl 60 the first time i didn't complete a season pass since season 7.The game doesn't feel fun anymore it feels like a slog

So out of 3 beyond dogshit seasons with little to nothing going on story wise…yeah it’s the best

@@mrlunar62can you count?

I could see season of plunder weapons dropping from zero hero, since if I recall none of those drop from the current rotation (granted idk any of those being must have) I hope they fix those 2 up so they work with the beyond light engine update

Sounds very boring

​@@omensoffateDestiny's pretty boring as well, so not much will change.

Same fam. My friend group and I have had this exact sentiment, and we plan on doing a raid marathon to have some fun and get our team ready for day 1.

I feel the same way

It really wasn’t. Datto is in full Bungie attorneys mode rn and have been since people have been criticizing d2

Guardian Games is coming back? Damn, that's a shame... Also, somewhat related: I hope that one of these days we'll get craftable event weapons.

Altars could’ve been more fun if it was a 6 man activity now that i think about it

Guess you can’t do strikes either

​@@kevinmalcom4243literally nobody does strikes unless it's a GM or a Master with double loot which nowadays is worthless since they made the difficulty modifiers make master and GMs the same exact thing minus a FEW encounters where GMs feel harder...all that for MUCH lesser loot on masters compared to GM.

@@kevinmalcom4243 yeah the only options are really gambit which isn’t too bad, crucible and 6 man activities

Same, but generally the game DESPERATELY needs more 6 player PVE core activities (or something more than 3 players), legend dares is kinda ok but not enough and nothing kills the mood more than having to exclude people because there's nothing for groups inbetween 3 and 6 player

how

thank you very much, this is very generous of you! i appreciate the words of encouragement.

Imagine giving a KZfaqr $10 to say something extremely generic in their comments. Hope the heart and reply was worth it ya absolute clown. 🙄🤡

Yea I still don’t know how the cards even worked

@@Earendil87 in the Helm, it tells you what all of the Cards do and you can choose which ones are in your deck (the solid ones) to "Build" it, 5 minimum. I liked The Lie, nigh infinite melees. I covered the map in Throwing Hammers a few times. Flechette Storm never touches the ground. Constantly Throwing Shields for Overshield and Volatile spreading (via Controlled Demolitionist).

remember sparrow racing league ? yeah me neither

Sounds like they're going for things like wacky modifiers, unique activities opening on certain weeks, and in-game mini events. Things that just make the game feel different week over week.

The story was ungodly boring, the weapons were at best dogshit, the activities were a snooze fest after 2 runs, crota was so boring I actually fell asleep on contest mode…like…nothing good or outstanding came about this season.

I mean they didn’t improve the game for the past 4 years. The seasons r exactly the same as they were 4 years ago. No innovation, no effort.

It was hidden in a lore entry instead of a cutscene because no budget.

... Massive update?

Make sure to take a break and play other games. I've done this recently, totally refreshed when I got back in a few weeks ago. My buddies and I did a Nezarec farm which 5 out 6 got conditional finalities. We are ready for season of the wish and cannot wait for the new dungeon. So please take a break, the content won't go away and you can come back super fresh. Kindly, Fellow Guardian

Go take a break and play something else.
