    Game had its big final several years in the waiting boss show up and its storyline basically ended. Now it feels more like we’re doing post game sidequest stuff.

    Also theres various reports of bungie firings and d2 being in maintenance mode while they try to push out a tarkov knockoff

        Maybe its changed up since I last read about it, but when I did it, iirc it was an extraction shooter, they brought a bunch of Tarkov guys out to try it, and asked them if they’d stream it if it was live, to which all of them gave a hard no. Maybe it hadn’t been cooked enough yet so it didn’t have a compelling vibe, or maybe Bungie decided to change shit up since then, couldn’t say. I’m not a extraction shooter fan in any case so the whole thing has no appeal to me.

            I don’t have high hopes for any game that goes through such a drastic change late in development.

      Thanks. That sounds remarkably like the same slump FFXIV is currently in, actually. You’d think professional writers would be able to see this problem coming a long way away, and find a way to pivot smoothly to the next storyline. Especially with so much $$ at stake in a live service game.
