[2021] You gotta admit that at this point Bungie does indeed listen and listens well to us

There is a growing list of quality of life changes that Bungie has added in the past year that came straight from the requests I see on this sub. They removed the large light level grinds each season, they made shaders not cost glimmer, are adding full auto as an option for guns that can support it, reversal of sunsetting (a big mistake that was probably hard to back track on but did anyways).

The list grows and grows and honestly Bungie listens to our feedback and it’s getting old to seeing people complaining they aren’t doing it enough. Bungie seems to be the type of devs that don’t want to comment on changes we request until they have a viable way to implement it if it’s a good suggestion. Sure there may be somethings we don’t always get but overall they listen to feedback more than ignore it.

I just wanted to give them credit where credits is due.

Edit: Since this gained a lot of traction I shall reply to a lot of the same posts here. Yes these changes do often take time to change. We know however that especially in a game as complicated as Destiny 2 is, that changes take time, some changes are very quick to change because they just didn’t cause any issues, some changes for all we know break the game or require a well thought out solutions. For example, Full Auto as an option on all weapons sounds like an easy fix, but you then have to say, does it add a perk to the gun? A new toggle in the gun? Most guns are at their perk limit. What about guns that already have full auto trigger system? That perk is now useless and needs a rework or just be replaced, what do you replace it with? How do you decide? Certain guns have different perk pools etc. There is a lot to change and consider for such a small change.

The development pipeline is long and complicated, and they more complicated the fix we ask for the longer it may take to change what’s in the pipeline.

On last thing to consider is, Bungie may hear and understand what we ask for, but to an extent they need to wait and make sure enough of the community wants it. If every post that got 5k likes got implemented into the game, they would never keep up and the game would be a broken mess.
