Complaining is easy! But one should not forget what distinguishes the Guardians in Destiny 2.
Those who have been hanging around in the Reddit forum about Destiny in recent days and weeks found little joy: Because everything was and is full of salt.
The term “salt” refers to the state when angry and frustrated people vent their frustration and complain loudly. When users read all the complaint posts, they say things like: “Wow, there is a lot of salt here!”
And this salt is currently flooding the Destiny forums, as well as the comments under our articles.
At times, the Destiny Reddit was renamed “Rahool’s Salt Warehouse”. There were several reasons for this recently:
- The ongoing topic is the lack of endgame content. Guardians complain that there is too little to do in the endgame. The long-term motivation, the replay value is nonexistent.
- The loot and the token system are boring and unmotivating.
- A significant exploit has been lurking around in the raid for weeks and has now even spread.
- The Trials are suspended for weeks – due to an emote.
- On PC, there is chaos due to dubious bans.
- Launch issues on PC and missing features like a public text chat are now adding to the problems.
- Furthermore, a leak of possible new content has surfaced.
In fact, just yesterday, on October 25th, we reported on Mein-MMO.de about leaks, exploits, and the ban chaos on PC – all negative news that continues to pile on the salt mountain. And Bungie will likely be busy for some time to come dealing with this mountain.
However, the community shows these days that they can do more than just complain – namely to help!
Bunch of Tips for PC Guardians
Numerous PC players have ventured into the Destiny 2 universe since the launch on October 24th and are taking their first steps as Guardians. Many veterans know that the initial period can be quite confusing. What do the different Guardian classes bring? What should I choose at the beginning? How should I build my skills? What is it all about?
Therefore, several well-meaning tips and assistance for the Guardian newcomers have appeared in the middle of all the salt in recent days. Some of these posts received thousands of upvotes and thus stood out amidst the complaints.
These tips range from
- Abilities to avoid unlocking
- to the advice to only do the exotic quests after reaching power level 265
- to the tip to definitely secure the scout rifle “Midnight Without a Name” when Zavala has it for you
- to a detailed overview of what the first 7 weeks of Destiny 2 taught us.
Many more posts have been published that aim to help PC players on their journey into the Destiny universe.
Once, the Guardians had an excellent reputation for welcoming new players with open arms and helping them along their way. Even in donation campaigns, the community has always shown its best side and generated incredible amounts for good causes.
Of course, there are black sheep in every community, but the Guardians in general have always been known for their great willingness to help.
Even if currently complaints are clearly in the majority, there are still “positive” posts flashing in the forums. In addition to helpful tips, some Guardians write that they simply wish PC players a lot of fun. Such posts also receive hundreds of upvotes and show that not everything is spoiled.
It is to be hoped that Bungie pays attention to all this feedback and can make the right adjustments. Then the community will once again show its best side…
