Destiny 2 has a lot of great people playing, but why can’t we all just play nice? This a wonderful game, so let's not ruin it.
PlayStation has scaled back expectations for Bungie after reassessing Destiny 2 development costs, highlighting the risks tied to live-service games.
Honestly Thank Goodness!! Yet another good sign of a possibility of returning to what made them great and undoing Jim Tyans trend chasing love service gamble. Still gotta wait and see just what direction they're going but this is a good sign in my book that they're not betting it all on live service anymore
Not sure what you lot are talking about anymore. They need to cover all range of games. Im primarily a single player gamer, but even I cannot be daft enough to ignore the fact that we need all manner of games including live service games. Everyone here seems to be a market expert.
Yes "all manner" not just exclusively live service like Jim was doing, but you also shouldn't be forcing devs to make games they not only have no experience making, but also flatout dont want to do.
Assuming that anything like that is actually the case and not just a perception of n4g commenters of course.

I don't understand why you people have to keep making up lies. You can say you don't like some or most of their focus being on live service games, but to say they were exclusively focusing on live service games is pure copium. At most half of their games were live service and the rest were single player games. Seriously why lie about something so obvious?
@Redemption-64
You say that as if we don't have word directly from Jim Ryan and PlayStation stating they wanted at least 12 live service games released within a year. Followed by tons of official word of those Live Service games being cancelled after he was pushed out. All studios combined at the time PS had 15 studios, 12 is a hell of a lot more than half of 15, and it was definitely their primary focus evident by the fact that a huge portion of their studios have taken uncharacteristically long to release or announce anything since, hell some studios have yet to release anything this gen almost 6 YEARS LATER! The only one making stuff up is you.
It may take a while but maybe they are finally learning. Good! Now stop with the live service crap.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a live service here or there, but to have many of your studios start focusing on it when there has been little to no experience among them was wild.
They say this and then immediately release news of the Horizons co-op game that will definitely be a Live Service game.
I feel like they knew that given the fact that the very furst thing they say in the trailer is to reassure they still make so games 😆

They will not. Destiny has been popular for over 10 years, something most games can never hope to achieve. Most people, including myself those Bungie was going to make a D3 after the final shape DLC. Marathon looks to be a hit and a D3 announcement could break records.
Patch notes for Update 9.5.0.5, the one about Equilibrium fixes and more, are now available.
A new survey shows Destiny 2 is considering adding Sparrow Racing League, unvaulted campaigns, NPC sidekicks, new PvP and Gambit modes, and much more.
It was way worse in the first one, where couldnt even find a raid fireteam unless you had a certain game breaking rocket launcher.....
Bungie totally over did this raid in an pathetic attempt to gate players behind the mechanics wall. That’s all it is. The number of confusing and down right unfun puzzle encounters makes it hard to find players to repeat the raid. What’s worst is that it encourages toxic elitetist attitudes in raiders vs new players. I want intense team based tactical combat not this puzzle solving garbage.
I agree but not in the way most ppl think. It is missing social activities for mmo-ish players to partake in. It draws various genres of gamers unlike any other game, from mmos to fps games. And I’m not saying that the fps players are the problems, as I’ve had my issue with many raiders in mmos, but many mmos are able to assuage more casual player so by giving them a bunch of other things to do, from crafting, to completionist achievements etc., using lore and cosmetic rewards.
The problem often is that if you play Destiny and don’t raid or play Trials, your content will dry up fast. And while guided games is a step in the right direction, ppl can often be turned off quickly. Hell, while I’ve read aided in many mmos and D1, we had a clan member join us for our first time and he had so little patience that ppl left.
Either that or they need places that ppl can go and sign up for groups and times to work at a particular pace, b/c the content is so damn good.
Some even deliberately waste your time,this is even worse than matchmaking.Now you have groups that are organized trolls.Great job Bungie. (understand that waiting to even get in game takes up to 30/45 mins)
stop complaining i beat the raid 30 times already its easy
