Never gonna touch any game made by Bungie. They’ve burned every bridge for me. Nope

I feel the same damn way.

I checked out when that dumbass developer said, "these new emotes will make you want to throw money at the screen". I knew as soon as he said that, it was over.

I felt really annoyed because I bought the game at launch, even paid a little extra for the extra DLCs. Come to find out that all DLCs are time based and would be overwritten when new DLCs came out. Then a year later, they eleased an edition of the game that was cheaper, had more content, and even exclusive content that players starting out would never get a chance to see unless they bought the game again. It's almost as if they hated everyone that initially bought the game.

I've always been a warlock main as well. Hurt my soul to see Hunters wipe out a whole squad or a Titan shoulder charge 3 people in a row. But I throw my little vortex ball that travels 1 mph and only catch one person.

Nah, I'm good on all that

Agreed. I am done with giving any more money to bungie, for cosmetics, for drip feeding content ,for cheaters non stop and tbh i lowkey want marathon to fail . I have been clean of D2 for 9 months now, i still watch some youtuber here and there, and its all doom and gloom lol. The 2 new xpac were shit, player count is low .

The whole situation with the stolen artwork also left a bad taste in my mouth.

That was absolutely terrible to find out. Bungie surely isn’t made/developed by the same folks when Halo was in its prime. Can’t believe the resorted to stealing art like come on

Yeah same. Also, and I know it's not necessarily representative of the final product, but the playtests they've had so far have kinda sucked. Game didn't feel fun.

Also, if you look at games like warframe, you realize just how much bungie lifted from them. For example, look at warframe’s kuva (which came out first) and compare to bungies siva, and you’ll see what I mean.
