In Destiny 2, the Curse of Osiris is approaching. Bungie announced fundamental changes to the mechanics. Does this make you feel positive?
In exactly one week, on December 5, the first expansion of Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris will be released. This also marks the beginning of Season 2, which will bring changes to weapons and endgame mechanics.
After a long period of silence, Game Director Luke Smith finally shared last weekend that this week, likely on November 29 during a livestream, they will discuss the important system changes of the December update. Furthermore, the heads of Bungie, Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy, will address all the criticism from the past weeks.
This announcement was received with mixed feelings on reddit:
- Some are optimistic that Bungie can solve major problems. After all, Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy only appear when there are important things to announce. That must mean something, that this time they are not sending random developers.
- Others doubt that Bungie can fundamentally and significantly overhaul the systems by December.
What do you think – Can Bungie turn it around?
Many fans say: “This will be a defining hour for Bungie.” This week will determine whether Destiny 2 can turn it around or if even the most loyal fans will abandon it.
We at Mein-MMO.de recently conducted a survey to ask the real experts about this situation – namely you. What are your expectations for the appearance of Smith and Noseworthy?
So far, over 3600 readers have cast their votes, with this result:
- Only 15% are full of hope and believe that Bungie can make important changes in December
- Almost a third (31%) are disappointed and do not believe that Bungie can save Destiny 2 in December.
- And 54% prefer to wait and see. They are not sure what to make of it.
Mein-MMO Reader Opinions
In over 150 comments, you also left your opinion in written form. Here are a few extracts:
- Psycheater approaches the situation with the motto “Wait and see.” He does not currently see a timely return to Destiny 2 – but who knows?
- Axl expresses strong doubt in a detailed comment that Smith and Noseworthy will appear as saviors this week and that everything will be better afterward. In his opinion, Bungie needs to “take a damn big shovel to make something happen, so the community will be more favorable to them again.”
- Compadre describes his mood as: “few expectations, just slight signs of indifference.” He does not expect too many changes, as it is utopian to implement significant new features in a relatively short time. However, he has no frustration towards Bungie.
- Also, David Davine is skeptical about the matter. “You can’t seriously believe that a small DLC with an accompanying update can solve the massive problems of Destiny 2. If Bungie and Activision are really working on a solution, it is still weeks, if not months away.”
- Alex oben also expects nothing. He does not believe that anything will come of the December update.
- Whiskey has already moved on from Destiny 2. He will no longer buy DLCs and expansions.
- So does Chris Zweipunktnull. For him, the subject of Destiny 2 is closed. It is not a title that can keep him engaged for months. He is missing something essentially new.
- And TheViso jokes that he would trade his Destiny 2 for a donut. He realizes this may not be the best trade-off, but it doesn’t have to be a very good donut.
Most of our readers are therefore skeptical about this week’s announcements. They doubt that the developers can quickly resolve all annoyances. What Bungie actually has to say, you will find out this week on Mein-MMO.de.
