Xurday 11-13-15 my feelings on how the game has changed.

The Agent of the nine is here, and what did he bring us another week of disappointment. Not sure about you guys, but I look forward to xur for one reason. A chance to get a new item that I don't already have, a chance to get my hands on a year 2 gun that I don't have. Time refill on the heavy ammo and three of coins.

 This blog is not going to go into detail like I normally do for each individual item xur is selling. Feel free to watch the video above if you want to know what xur has today. Today my blog is going to be more on how I am feeling about the game and about xur.

Ok, so here's my thoughts on Destiny lately, I used to play destiny 8 hours a day and I would even stream on twitch. But I have since stopped streaming and stopped playing destiny more than a few hours a day. Lately the game itself has kind of seemed tedious at best. It used to be you run a strike or night fall and have a good chance of getting something you wanted. Yes, running the same strike on heroic 3 times did get old. But at the end you knew that you would get 9 strange coins if you took the hardest mode. Running then nightfall? Well there was always the challenge where you couldn't wipe or you had to start all over, but you knew you may get that one weapon you really wanted at the end, or at the very least you would get a bunch of strange coins.

The new Destiny - The taken king - Well, let me first start off by saying I really enjoyed the taken king when it first came out. The graphics, the new stories, not a big fan of the raid, but that is mainly cause  I suck at jumping and there is a lot of jumping in the raid. I think if it wasn't for that I would have really enjoyed the raid as well. The raid is pretty awesome. But then after I finished everything, here came the boredom. It seems like destiny has become farming the majority of the time. Waiting for the Taken, trying to find fragments. You run heroic strikes, well you have to run 3 of them to get your 15 legendary marks, with really no guarantee of anything else, of course you can eat a 3 of coins but still no guarantee. Then there is the nightfalls - you go through it and once again no guarantee. It has become disappointing.

And finally there is xur the agent of the nine #tentacle face. I used to wait up all night, before making video's just to see if he was selling that gun I really wanted, or maybe that armor I really wanted. But now there are weeks that xur doesn't even sell a gun such as this week. Really Bungie? I really think your losing your way in this game. The gamers want guns and armor. I am not going to spend 23 coins on a engram. I might as well spend 23 coins on a exotic shard, and back in the day it was on 7 strange coins for a exotic shard. I really think bungie needs to make the game a little less tedious and more rewarding. If your going to make it tedious to the point it's almost a job to play the game at least give us better rewards, or have xur supply better things. I am more likely to spend more time grinding in the game if I know I at least have a good chance of getting something I want. People are more likely to look forward to xur if they at least know for sure he has a year 2 weapon. So, Bungie has made some good changes to the game but they also have made changes that are not so good.

So, that is my feelings on destiny as of right now. I'm a big fan of destiny, I am a year one player I'm not trying to say Destiny sucks cause it doesn't. I just feel that every time bungie tries to improve the game they make some changes that make the game less appealing, at least to year one players. They need to figure out a way to keep the game appealing to those of us who have been around since the beginning.
