There is nothing I want to be. There is nothing I want to do.
I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.

I'm hoping the RNG will play out and new content (guns) will appear as people play.

Bungie said they wanted to more secret poo poo which sounds like time-gating content behind the world's vaguest clues.

There's some symbol map in the new forge with glowing symbols you can only see through the scope of a BA weapon.

Ok let's be real here I made it to wave 2 17/20 with pubbies at 600 I'm sure after you cycle your weeklies and get some friends together you can clear it if not make progress on wave 3.

They could have maybe included a couple of new strikes. Anyone know how to get black armory armor? Is it from the yet-impossible forge?

I really don't get the decision to make the Forge activity functionally require a light level that will take like a week or more for players who were already 600 to acquire. They're already rolling out Forges slowly over time. Why does this first one need to be level-gated?

I think anyone who was paying attention expected today's release to be relatively small with more to come. The problem is that the new content is there but people can't really do it yet for a reason that feels extremely arbitrary.

Y'all are quite silly

Wave 1 of Forge is only 610, perfectly doable at 600

They’re level gating rather than just time hating because it gives people a reason to play. They’re just desperate to avoid the content droughts that turned destiny 1 into either people playing 24/7 or complying 24/7 (while still playing).

It’s stupid but what can you do, the destiny fan base seems to think they have to play this game literally every day or it’s poo poo.

yeah, if you read the reddit or bungie.net forums this becomes increasingly obvious that none of them are capable of taking breaks or playing anything else

I recognize that they are intentionally stretching this out, but that doesn't mean the level-gating makes sense. It doesn't even make sense from that perspective.

If this Forge topped out at 615 light, the rate at which people complete content wouldn't really change at all. They're still releasing a second Forge on Friday, the third one a couple weeks from then, and a probably fourth in January. That cadence doesn't change at all. Dropping a new activity today at a light level most people can't do with no new methods of leveling up is just a baffling decision from any perspective.
