6 Major Problems With Destiny 2 and How Bungie Can Fix Them

Destiny 2 is great, but far from perfect.

Problem 2: One-Time Use Shaders Are Terrible

Recommended Videos

I don’t care what anyone tells me. Preach to me all you want about how you get shaders all the time (you don’t) and that it’s just cosmetic so “who cares”. I do, and so do lots of other people, so I don’t want to hear it. Fashion in Destiny 2 is the true end game, and no one should be subjected to looking like butt because they don’t have enough sexy shaders.

I’m not even going to go down the path of reverting back to how it was in Destiny 1 because that ship has sailed and is never coming back. Plus in theory, if shaders were easier to come by, the ability to mix and match colors is actually cool. Instead, there should be a more reliable way to get what you want.

Bring back our girl Eva Levante, and let her sell a rotating stock in exchange for glimmer. Make it expensive if Bungie is committed to driving people toward Tess instead, but at least make the option exist. Also, some kind of system of trading shaders that you hate, for ones you don’t either through Eva or someone else, would make Shader collecting in Destiny 2 much less painful.
