    Lightfall is a reminder that Destiny 2 is a live service game — there's a roadmap the game must follow, regardless of whether or not DLC is necessary. And sadly, Lightfall doesn't feel essential in the way that predecessors like Forsaken and The Witch Queen did. [Review in Progress]

    The marketing materials surrounding Lightfall built it up to tell the story that would lead us to the space game’s final chapter. But Bungie should know one thing: if it wants to keep its players happy, it should never make a promise it can’t keep. [Review in Progress]

It's bad when you get to use the new and amazing power and it actually maks just the basic combat 10 times harder. No grenade so you have to grapple into close range....annnddd your dead. It's part of the story too so you HAVE to play it. Story is atrocious..... Doesn't develop any of the new characters and then expects you to care when something happens to them. Osiris has turn into a cry baby old man who is just constantly throwing a tantrum for no reason. Did all the good writers in the world die? Not to mention there is only 8 main missions..... This isn't an expansion, it's maybe a seasons worth of content. I'm sick of them saying quality of life improvements is content..... It's NOT. I wanted to be fair. Once I finished the campaign strand has a lot of potential. It's just during the campaign especially the legendary difficulty it is complete trash. Full Review »
