Destiny

I don't know why Faction gear can't be purchased with one or the other. I mean you don't technically have to play multiplayer; you can farm materials and for every 50 trade them in for crucible marks. After getting 1,000 of any material you can hit your limit. How long would that take?

I was looking forward to that part opening up and once it did it was so anti-climactic that it makes pessimistic about any other area in the tower opening up.

It really feels like to me, Destiny was limited either because of a corporate mandate or because of the last-generation of consoles they had to develop for. The amount of content definitely feels more like a PS3 game than a PS4 game, but I think even for last-gen, this game would feel pretty small. There just isn't enough content.

However, with Activision involved, I'm inclined to be more cynical in thinking they limited content on purpose in order to fill in the initial expansion pass. The empty areas of the Tower of which you speak is likely space reserved for future additions or limited-time events, like the Iron Banner that took place during the Beta phase.

Just did a queens bounty and my reward was literally 3 plasteel plating and 42 glimmer, it looks good with my 486 plasteel and 24k glimmer in my inventory.

Totally worth it.

I am pretty sure the open space where the queen's person is will be used for any events. In the Beta the Iron Banner stuff was all to the right of that area.

That happened to me as well. I guessed they nerfed those missions too. No reason for me to do them at all now.

I will just focus on random bounties and Spirit Blooms and Relic Shards.

And a Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Durning the beta the had iron fist/wolf pvp faction there, so I think that are will be used for short time factions for now.

Yep, Iron Banner was there, and it will be again. It's a nice area for more stuff to do.

I think the most telling thing for me was that they said "this isn't how we envisioned people enjoying our game", so they took that option away.

I can understand doing away with the loot cave and all, but I don't like their explanation for doing so at all. Really tempers much of the excitement I had for this game going forward.

Does anyone want to attempt the nightfall?
