Bungie has said that it won’t be communicating with Destiny 2 players on Reddit to keep its employees safe. This is in direct response to the harassment Destiny 2 developers have faced recently, which also involved some of them receiving grave threats.

r/DestinyTheGame...being r/DestinyTheGame

Props on upper management for caring. I applaud them. I also...don't entirely miss the users we left behind.

Hopefully, this communication will help fans understand the gravity of the situation and will improve things going forward.

It will not.

knowing the 'gamers' who will go out of their way to threaten devs, it never gets to them until they themselves face consequences

Good. I hope they stick to this commitment.

No one should feel unsafe at work.

It’s sick that people are threatening developers over a game. I’m glad they got the guy mentioned in this article, but for the devs who make the game and receive threats… I hope they get some justice.
