"Did more harm than good": Destiny 2 community is livid with State of the Game article

Things haven't been looking good for Bungie and the Destiny 2 community, especially since the former dropped a State of the Game article. The company took the feedback of players, where the majority were looking for a lengthy blog post from the developers. However, the entire situation seems to have turned against Bungie, where the community is currently very dissatisfied with the article.A State of the Game article is deemed as some of the most important pieces of information that Bungie can give out to the players regarding the game's future.It has always helped players to shape their plan in the live service title, as well as hype them up for things to come.However, to most players, the recent State of the Game did not have anything concrete to go along, feeling like multiple This Week In Destiny (TWID) articles tied to one.Destiny 2 community shares their anger after a soulless State of the Game article from BungieThe disconnect between the Destiny 2 community and Bungie can be felt even more now. With a live service game as big as this, it is always tough seeing a player base on the decline, followed by the company's silence on the issues. However, things can worsen if the backlash continues after future announcements.Destiny 2@DestinyTheGameDestiny 2: State of the Game – August 2023⚔ Crucible, Vanguard Ops, and Gambit updates🛠 Game Stability and Security Reinforcing our 4 yearly goals Season 22, 23, and The Final Shape previews And much more.
