Bungie was meant to host a livestream today, further outlining the Curse of Osiris DLC which is due out in a week. It didn't happen. Instead, the developer is taking the time off to focus on community concerns.

Trouble brewed recently over the way experience works in the game, but this was only the latest controversy in a community upset over issues like the end game and vendor system. Instead of pushing on with the liverstream as planned, it was announced that Bungie had cancelled it to focus on the broader concerns of the audience. In a post on the game's forums yesterday, community manager David "DeeJ" Dague said:

Tomorrow, we had planned to conduct the final stream prior to the launch of "Curse of Osiris" to show off some of the weapons and armor the expansion includes. Instead, we are investing all our efforts into delivering some higher priority information about Destiny 2. You'll hear from studio leadership about their assessment of Destiny all up, they'll talk about our goals for the game going forward, and you'll also learn about how we're reacting to your feedback with some game updates that will arrive in the next few weeks.

That will appear on the Bungie Blog on Wednesday.

So, the day is set, and I think tomorrow will be a big one for all of Destiny 2. While it won't be as flashy as new guns and armour, instead we are getting answers to answers that have plagued the game since its launch in September. That seems important at this juncture.
