The thing I'm hung up on (Destiny)

Not to make this another bitching thread, but this is exactly the sort of thing Bungie really needs to evaluate. I don’t know how they fix it, but basing stuff like this around just running a single activity feels bad. I’d like to have that ship, but I don’t hate myself enough to want to get to rank 16 or whatever in Dares of Eternity.

I just wish some the way they designed the game was more inclusive and cohesive, instead of having multiple partitioned activities with their own reward tracks.

At a certain point, I know the game just isn’t designed for me ( or anyone who wants to play other games occasionally), and that can be okay. I just wish there was a middle ground somewhere.

And I haven't really thought about it until this. Is reputation streaks. It really killed my motivation to play literally ANY other activity because I just wanted to knock this out.

For example, without the streak I get 75 a run, with a full streak I get 175 a run. By choosing to do the exorcism mission, I was arguably adding a run or two to how many I needed...

I'm fine having something to chase, to chip away at over time, but get rid of reputation streaks, they either add nothing because I don't notice them, or they become a downer because I'm min/maxing.
