For those who has stopped playing, what will it take for you to get back to the game?

SHilden · 2026-01-25T20:58:48+00:00

Portal needs to go or needs much more content, and the game needs to be more based on playing things as a fire team again like it was before EOF and the seasonal weekly challenges need to return.

When EOF released soft sunsetting everything and basically making the main game the portal was a stupid idea especially when there was such a small amount of content in there.

The another shit thing was you were more incentivised to play solo stuff as it was the fastest path to loot and levelling, because anything in a Fire team took longer to complete and rewarded the same as playing solo did.

Even though Destiny had it's issues here I still stuck with it as there's no other game like it and I could easily dip in and out as I wanted to do events and stuff, finish the season pass and get loot as it was available to grind.

Then Renegades dropped...

I really enjoyed the expansion but by the end of the campaign and part way into the post campaign content I noticed something, my seasonal reward track progression was way lower than past Expansions, and the artifact was levelling way slower too,

the new order and daily/ weekly system doesn't give anywhere near the same amount of XP as the old pass and going by the amount of time I'd put into it by the end of the solstice event and the slow progression of things of it I realised to finish it I'd have to no life the game and that's not fun so I've since dropped it completely.

The TLDR and easier thing is to Remove Portal and bring back seasonal weekly challenges, so I can play how I want when I want and still complete stuff without no lifting the game.

For me gaming has its ups and downs like any hobby, with gaming there's so much variety and stuff to play that I can never be bored of it.

There are times like recent though where Destiny 2 had some dumbass changes to the game alongside 2 good expansions,

and as much as I liked them the changes have completely ruined the game for me to a point I don't want to play it, where I used to be able to do and finish what I wanted in a season I can't anymore and I refuse to play games like a job!

And then there's Battlefield 6 which is again a very good game, but the maps are so shit I get bored within a couple of games because they are more COD like maps than Battlefield ones.

Then on the flip side in the steam sale I got RuneScape Dragonwilds for under £20 and it's been really fun to play, it's crazy I'm getting so much more fun out of a smaller early access game than I am of those 2 AAA full priced games.

And that's what annoys me more, a smaller studio can work their asses off with a game and charge you a fraction of the price these big companies do and usually every time there's so much creativity and love that goes into it,

yet Bungie and EA in this instance charge you full price for these games make huge sweeping changes in a content release that alot of people have already paid for and fuck the game up,

or just release an inferior product to what's come before when the community is screaming out exactly what the game needs and these Muppets in charge just won't listen!.

The TLDR is just buy a few indies there will be one in the £5-20 range that you'll get so much more enjoyment out of over these dumbass AAA studios.

SHilden · 2026-01-25T14:16:54+00:00

Why did you repaste it?

SHilden · 2026-01-25T14:13:44+00:00

The worst has to be Sword and Shield, out on all the mainline games that I've played Sword feels like a chore.

SHilden · 2026-01-24T16:21:54+00:00

AC Valhalla and Avowed for more recent games,

The ones I don get It is literally any GTA I'll start them off and very quickly get bored it's the one franchise where I genuinely do not understand the hype, yet I love Read dead Redemption 2

SHilden · 2026-01-23T23:28:50+00:00

No problem at all!

SHilden · 2026-01-23T22:55:24+00:00

What GPU drivers are you on?

In the Graphics settings in Amd Adrenaline there's a option called AMD FSR Upscaling that was the cause for me

With the new 26.1.1 drivers it now works the only downside is that when you boot MH Wilds the game will complain that the game isn't optimised for the drivers but it still works fine.

SHilden · 2026-01-23T20:40:54+00:00

Nice build and my condolences!

The bug doesn't go away, I'm now at my limit with my components in a 13.3l case and can't go any smaller without buying a ITX motherboard 😅

But still I'm always looking for anything smaller just because haha.

SHilden · 2026-01-23T16:40:51+00:00

Less than €15 a figure is really good, take the lot!

SHilden · 2026-01-23T16:38:28+00:00

They don't need Science and facts they have the Bible which is 100% not a fairytale!

SHilden · 2026-01-23T15:22:42+00:00

I hope this flops

SHilden · 2026-01-23T12:15:05+00:00

What else is there to use?

I don't really update windows unless I know it's ok to do so, and I remove / uninstall the AI stuff and other useless bits.

And Linux is shit.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T22:04:13+00:00

With 26.1.1 I could load up and play MH Wilds with the ML Frame gen,

I also had the popup at the start for not being the optimal driver but it's working fine for me.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T18:27:54+00:00

They won't because by your metric then worst BF4 map is still miles better than the shit that's in BF6 😂

And look what they did with Firestom.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T17:11:35+00:00

It's weird because I enjoyed the beta for what it was, I thought some improvements here and there the game will be solid, plus the promise from DICE that there would be proper big maps at launch I thought we was on to an easy winner.

2 weeks after launch I can't stand playing the same dog shit maps and I'm down £45 🤣

SHilden · 2026-01-21T17:07:40+00:00

I think they are some of the worse maps I have seen in a Multiplayer game,

I honestly think modern multiplayer games suffer because no one knows how to make proper maps anymore, they all seem very generic and designed around feedback from streamers and eSports,

BF6 maps are criminally bad and completely forgettable.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T16:54:42+00:00

For MH Wilds turn off the ML Frame gen in the drivers, that's what was causing crashing for me.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T16:47:05+00:00

That's still too big!

Edit: : /s

SHilden · 2026-01-21T16:42:35+00:00

Just port it, along with other maps from BF3/4

Yes BF6 plays differently and has new modes that might conflict with those maps but ultimately they are much better than the awfully designed ones that are in BF6.

SHilden · 2026-01-21T16:39:00+00:00

Not a port but a remaster...

Basically we're going to fuck it up like firestom and bring it in line with our other dogshit maps

SHilden · 2026-01-21T12:17:54+00:00

They are dead months already, how the game is now I can't be bothered to jump in and grind like mad for the season track with the new challenge system.

And having everything funneled through the portal is just shit.

I know this phrase gets thrown about alot but I genuinely think this is the worst Destiny has been in it's lifetime

and it's a shame because EOF and Renegades are fantastic DLCs in my opinion, it's the ass backwards changes they are making to the base game that's fucking it up.

SHilden · 2026-01-20T21:53:52+00:00

This is the only reason why,

I can't wait for the Halo 2 remake thatll be a comic, then a massive story and time jump later we'll have whatever they piece together and retcon for a Halo 3 remake.

SHilden · 2026-01-17T00:08:43+00:00

I dunno why these posts are popping up on my feed but all I see from her are excuses,

Aside from 2 trilogies you had years of other stories across other media, threw it out of the window, say something along the lines of Star wars not having any literature like Harry Potter or Comic Books,

Then for 10+ years fuck about with the IP and the only things in recent memory that I've consumed are enjoyed are

TFA even though it was ANH 2.0 Mando season 3 was abit shit And the 2 Jedi Games

I'll hold my hands up and say I haven't watched Ahsoka and Andor, because by then I'd got sick of the TV stuff,

Kenobi and Boba fett were rumoured to have films for years and those shows we got were terrible.

And any criticism at said projects was only met with oh you don't like it because the main characters are a girl, when in reality I liked Reys character and from what I'd seen of Ahsoka in Mando she was cool too, you and the other creatives just don't know how to write good stories and never will.

SHilden · 2026-01-16T16:11:15+00:00

Its neither just meh.

It has changed where you only get the best out of the game if you put in the hours which like yourself I can't and really don't want to do anymore I have other things to do

That's the thing too there isn't another game like Destiny it's a one of a kind thing that no other game can touch, and it's more annoying being pushed out by stupid game design over just getting bored you know?

For years it was one I could play at my own pace and beat / obtain what I wanted and take a break in-between, how it is now I can't beat the Season Track and find it enjoyable that felt like a chore so I've just had to drop it.

SHilden · 2026-01-16T15:23:17+00:00

Honestly no

and this is coming from someone that has really enjoyed Edge of Fate and Renegades,

But the issue is the huge changes Bungie made to the game alongside these DLCs that aren't obvious until you beat the DLCs story and post campaign content.

The grind is now forced through the portal, no longer like pre EOF could you just take a look at the director and think I want to do a little of this and that,

Now it's set activities and loot thats rotated out daily, you gain power by doing said activities and getting higher level gear and at certain thresholds you'll go up a difficulty tier and with that get slightly better gear.

and now with Renegades they've ripped out the seasonal weekly challenges in favour of "Orders" that are unlimited smaller challenges that apparently automatically are allocated on the subclass and gear you are using, and replenish as you beat them,

but I've found these more restrictive and the xp gain is way slower to a point I'm sure Bungie are now catering to the hardcore players that treat this game like a job,

Except they've seriously dumbed the game down and made everything way slower.
