I asked a week or so ago, what the motivation of raiding was supposed to be, and im still searching for that answer. Once i get past the high of finishing the raid, why am i going back into said raid?
We have no gear sets, but apparently the devs are in watch and wait holding pattern for that.
We have no worth while exotics, devs are also watching and waiting on that.
So im trying to figure out, what is the carrot, the reward, that comes from clearing a raid that gets me to do it more than once? Rare talents? A new brand set? Higher gear score than 500? New weapons that ONLY drop in the raid? WHAT?
I dont understand how this game can polish a 0 to max level journey, but then end game rolls around and they have completely lost site of the fact that the motivation for playing a looter rpg is the gdamn LOOT.
I dont understand why exotics are bad, they are already heavily gated by the fact that you can only equip one exotic, so why are they all terrible?
I dont understand why gear sets are bad, you only have 3 of them, i get you dont want to force gear set builds, but you dont even seem to want gear sets to be used period.
Finally, the biggest one, why did you implement conflict? Did you guys not know this would kill the dark zone? Did you guys decide we needed to have a shooter shoehorned into this looter rpg? the game is supposed to be pvpve that involves gear. This 100% call of duty esq game mode that disregards all earned gear thus far, is the biggest slap in the face to the reward system. Why would i care about going into the dark zone to steal another players loot, when if i put that gear on, IT WOULD BE EXACTLY THE SAME AS IF I DIDNT HAVE THAT PIECE OF LOOT IN THE FIRST PLACE. Pick a lane, are you an rpg, or a shooter. Normalization is cancer, and it removes all rpg aspects of the game, if i wanted to play call of duty, i wouldve bought call of duty. Im playing a looter shooter, i want my loot to matter EVERY SINGLE TIME. I want my build to matter, EVERY SINGLE TIME. Increase the time to kill, so that i can still make a real build, have fun while doing it, and try to use it on other players. If i just wanted to point and shoot, again, id buy a shooter.
So here we are, gear score 500, and beyond the apparel cache event, i have no actual reason to log in right now, as i have no rewards to look forward to.
