I remember reading the post in the OP on reddit and I agree with every bit of it.
Why does PVP seem to have such a gigantic affect on PVE in this game? I haven't met one person who actually plays the game for PVP. Is the PVP community that large?
WoW had this issue for years. They have finally gone in the right direction with specific, PVP-only talents. It seems like Bungie won't make the ultra sick weapons from the past due to people whining about them in PVP.
If Bungie made it to where everyone in PvP arenas had the exact same gear and weapon types, would that work? e.g CSGO, everyone has the same loadout possibilities.
I personally loved D1s PvP. Loads of choices depending on what you wanted to do and how you wanted to play.
Trials was great but GAF IB trains were the best.
D2s...not so much.
What is people actually want? What I hear is 'I've played all the content and now there isn't anything to do'. Well of course there isn't because you've done it all. I don't understand repeating things over and over and over just for the chance of unlocking some new shoes that you will then replace after playing it again and again and again.
What I want personally is:
- Random perks BUT! make duplicates valuable. How? By being able to pick what perks you keep when you infuse.
- I want strikes to be worth my time.
- I want PvP to be worth my time.
- I want the raid to be worth my time.
- I want drops from each encounter in the raid, not tokens, drops AND tokens would be ideal.
- I want gunsmith missions again.
- I want kiosks for my ships/shaders/emblems etc again.
- I want there to be hidden dead ghosts to find.
- I want there to be lore in the game, like grimoire that I can go and read. Not the poor excuse we have on armour/weapons.
- I want to be able to see what Ive collected in regards to armours and guns, and what Ive still to collect so that I can work towards it.
- I want exotics to be...exotic again. Not with perks from our old skill trees.
- I want to be able to choose what modes I want to run in PvP.
- I want to be able to choose between try hard 4v4 or casual 6v6.
- I want to have some space magic again, I want supers to be super and I want to actually be able to use my grenades rather than them be on CD 90% of the time.
- I want them to revert the loadout changes or at least sort out the overloaded power weapons slot.
I could go on and on but whats the point when many of the above were possible in D1 yet taken away in D2.
