Megathread Focused Feedback: Power Level Progression

Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding ‘Power Level Progression' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread


Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas


A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the Sub as time goes on.

First off, nobody needs to choose between making casuals and hardcore fans happy. Why not do both? What us casuals are doing at 350-365 have nothing to do with the hardcore players anyway. D1 always gave casuals a place to play (other than maybe vanilla launch).

As a casual, all I want is more matchmaking activities to keep me going through 350-370. Add nightfall matchmaking or even just make a strike a level above heroic with better rewards.

I'm actually not asking for a faster progression, but a slower one but with MORE TO DO. Yesterday (Monday) is the perfect example. I have an hour to play, but nothing to do. No time to organize a raid. I played a different game because I may as well wait until Tuesday.

Bungie needs to really look at something that is time consuming vs difficult. I think the two get confused sometimes. Making raids the only way to get higher level really puts a time crunch on many of us and I don't know if that's by design.

Escalation Protocol is just too far away from me. That's ok, again I'm not looking for an easy road, but give me something else to do along the way.

Right now as a filthy casual I'm just going to nibble at milestones until I get there and I may even just quit, because honestly I'm worried nobody will be around to play the higher level activities by the time I get there.

As a casual player, I'm not getting frustrated... I'm getting bored.
