Destiny 2\u2019s Solstice Event frustrates players who call it \u201canother L\u201d BungieThe 2023 Solstice Event in Destiny 2 isn\u2019t exactly what fans were hoping for, and many have dubbed it \u201canother L\u201d for Bungie. This year\u2019s summer event kicked off on Tuesday, July 28 and will last through Tuesday, August 15. Notably, the 2022 versions of the popular Destiny 2 event helped streamline armor upgrades. And Bungie made no bones about further overhauling the experience in terms of difficulty for the currently running Solstice. Not everyone is pleased with the latest changes, though, especially as discontent towards the game as a whole arguably reaches an all-time high. Destiny 2 fans reduce Solstice 2023 to \u201canother L\u201d Though it just launched this week, the latest Destiny 2 event has already received the community\u2019s ire. One Reddit thread has labeled it \u201chot a**,\u201d with many users agreeing. The original poster listed several of their personal complaints, which call out the game\u2019s \u201cterrible\u201d armor glows, incomplete EAZ textures, and the inability to ride Sparrows in the EAZ. \u201cSolstice has unironically gotten worse every year since its inception,\u201d replied one person in the thread. And several people argued that the gameplay loop, EAZ content, and cosmetics aren\u2019t worth the effort. Destiny 2 players on Twitter have similarly blasted the Solstice event, with one person saying apathy for the game is the worst it\u2019s ever been. \u201cWe needed a win,\u201d the user wrote, \u201cand solstice wasn\u2019t even neutral ground just another L.\u201d Some disagree, though, arguing that Solstice and similar events \u201care eververse promotions at best.\u201d Either way, this has many wondering what exactly Bungie has in store for its August showcase, which should feature details about the next expansion, Final Shape. All of this comes amid claims that Destiny 2 has waded into \u201cmicrotransaction hell.\u201d It remains to be seen if or when Bungie will address the ongoing monetization complaints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
