Idea: Fishing on the Moon.

For this september DLC they could add some sort of fishing. Weird fish and worm monster would swim on lake of black goo, and we would have fishing equipment. Epic bait would let us hunt giant whales from the black goo.

article on artifacts
https://www.polygon.com/interviews/...-of-the-undying

- Artifacts will last the season (they're still 3 months) and be replaced with a new one when a new season starts
- They will match the theme of each season
- They'll use them to test new abilities. So if something sucks or is OP they can get rid of it, or bring it back if it's good

It sounds more like artifacts are going to replace activity mods. Activity mods don't go away when a new season starts, though.

I have the weird feeling Bungie is going to ramp-up difficulty for Shadowkeep.

Players at the moment are powerhouse machines, good player can have a lot of fun... I have seen pub groups absolutely annihilate some events in the menagerie.

I have this feeling that for september Bungie is going to make the game hard has nails, and this is cool in a different way.


Anyway, I have not support for this theory.

The vidoc kept saying stuff like "you won't be able to do all the things you used to be able to do" or something like that.

At the very least, since everyone will start at 750 Power on the 17th we won't be running around scaled 40 points above most of the content.

Also I think they're getting rid of levels altogether and it will just be Power, unless they change light back into level or something goofy. They said they were "still tuning" that.

Also it's been speculated that they might get rid of power level and it will just be about upgrading the Artifact every season. I wouldn't bet real money on that happening but I would be really glad if that was the case.

I don't think this idea has passed trough their mind yet, but is the direction they are moving to. They have this population of people that is going to try the game in september and getting they to buy the full version of the game. And on top of that shadowkeep. Is a lot of work to be done and done right at the first try, I don't think they have time to experiment much.
But what you suggest could be their initial solution, or 90% of the solution for their problems.

They can't get rid of power level because that would mean we couldn't complain about how player HUD tags still show character level

Power Level is the dumbest part of the game because it's not like people don't hit it quickly anyway.

It's relevant for like three weeks of a season.

Depends on what they mean by pushing more rpg elements too. I think there will always be a level cap of some kind and some kind of gear score but greater customisation would be so and good.

I wouldn't care if they got rid or all subclasses and mods and your artifact was just a big rear end list of poo poo you can unlock and customise with varying trade offs.
