Nov 26, 2017Pros:
Free to play ... oh wait it is not.
Cons:
Free to play economy in paid game.
Contains Pay-walls.
Game is lying to players about XP gains.
Players are banned for using Discord. -
Oct 24, 2017One hour before release: "SSSE3 Required: Destiny 2 will not run on processors without Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSSE3)" what more is there to say? Never again buying from Bungie/Activision ever again. Refunding my money immediately.
Don't support businesses with such shady practices.
Where is the Bungie I used to love? -

Oct 25, 2017PC version is 10 out of 10, nice graphics, nice sound, good optimization.
But story and gameplay are bad.
The game is overpriced and boring, like a bad copy of **** without items, abilities and fun.
4/10 -

Oct 24, 2017This game is definitely not worth its price.
The gameplay is a boring grind with no challenge and has nothing new to offer, the story is full of holes and simply garbage, the characters have no character and are forgettable, the multiplayer aspect is simply not there and half of the game is locked behind a paywall.
Destiny 2? No, its simply destiny 1.5. This whole series is a lie. -

Oct 24, 2017They took away nearly everything that made Destiny 1 great. The end game is non existent and will take months if not years to fix. Highly disappointed with this sequel, and never plan to buy another Bungo product again. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!
-
Oct 25, 2017Yet another boring shoter game where blizzard bought positive "critic" reviews. Its more generic than CoD and for MMO title it gets repetitive after hour or two.

Oct 28, 2017Micro-transactions are the cancer of video gaming. This game is made for the sole purpose of robbing you of your hard earned cache.
Don`t buy this game. -
Oct 24, 2017The only redeeming quality to this game is the graphics, with everything else being dull and bland. The gameplay is horrendously boring with both PVE and PVP being a total snoozefest.
-
Oct 25, 2017Stupidly to the release of the system and most AMD processors and old Intel have ceased to support SSE4.1, because of what stupidly throws out the game, bravo! And the buns soon in the order when they have already issued all pre-orders have changed the system, the pier is the way it should be
-
Oct 24, 2017this game looks like potato, has no content, and is boring grind, im okay with somewhat entertaining grind like warframe but this lacks variety, no class diversity
sorry bungie, its not fun :( -

Nov 4, 2018It's amazing. I have never seen a turd polished so meticulously that it shines brightly enough to blind you. So many gfx assets wasted on a bland, soul-less corporate cash grab.

Nov 29, 2017MC, how did this get 83?
The game is absolute garbage, and should be sold by steam in a $9.99 bucket. Story is W+Mouse1 all the way, PVE - is grind same crap, rinse, repeat since day 2. PVP is laughable with enemies shown on the radar (wth?) I wish i could get a refund on this parody on a video game. First and last purchase from bungie. -
Nov 8, 2017Destiny 1 has a soul. Destiny 2 does not.
It is obvious Bungie didn't have their creative freedom for this game. No wonder most of the team left. Activiision is making Destiny and COD the same game. 4/10. -
Nov 9, 2017After a week of constant crashes in 30-40 min after starting client got banned w/o any explanation and any option to refund. Not smth to expect from full-price 'AAA' title... At least got main plot-line finished just a day before the ban, which counts as '+1' in my experience with this 'game'...
-
Nov 23, 2017Terrible game. How they managed to take a pretty good game from Destiny 1 and then run it into the ground for Destiny 2, I don't know. P2P PvP matching is still awful, and the bright engram and exp cap are ridiculous. The bones of the game are still great. It's a good feeling shooter. But the greed and poor design choices of Bungie are terrible.

Nov 28, 2017Do not buy!!! Do not support these kind dev, let them starve.
This game is lacking in everything, but graphic.
This game is design for loot box pure and simple.
The devs lies like no tomorrow since beta, and continue to lie about shady loot box practice. -
Dec 25, 2017Simply put: This game is a Scam.
Activision/Bungie showed that they don't have intrest in making a good game, they just want your money. -
Nov 26, 2017A step back in rewarding your time investment from vanilla destiny, a huge step back from destiny year 3. Also includes pay to win microtransactions in the form of mods for your gear.

Dec 1, 2017bad spawn rules, team killing is really common, forces you to have pre made parties to do some aspects of the game which is really retarded, bad inventory management.
-
Dec 12, 2017Wieso habt ihr mir mit der Erweiterung Content weggenommen?? Das kann ja nicht sein, ich will mein Geld zurück. Das ist wie wenn man sich ein Auto kauft und nach 1 Monat kommt der Händler und baut den Motor aus und meint Berg ab geht es jetzt noch, für Berg auf musst du eine Expansion Pass kaufen.....

Dec 1, 2017Not enough here to warrant a sequel, should have been DLC for the original game not to mention the XP lies and tricks to get you to buy loot boxes. Bungie has revealed the their true colors and desire to milk their fans for as much money as possible while providing little in return.
-
Nov 27, 2017another example of a company milking users for money while providing a **** experience. instead of providing an amazing experience in which users want to waste money.
-
Jan 2, 2018Lack of content and lack of hats is just overwhelmingly horrible. If you like to play extremely casually, this may be your game. If you are looking for interesting game to play longer than few weeks, ignore this instantly, don't think about buying this.

Jul 31, 2018I had been played some time at weekend in this game (thanks to Blizzard it was the free weekend a I didn't spent money), and I cannot understand people who bought it. The game is boring. I removed it just after fist mission. It's not a good co-op game, like Borderlands or Diablo, so don't waste your time.

Dec 6, 2017The positive:
Awesome graphics! Cool weapons!
The negative:
Horrible story! The writers must have gotten really used 5 mins to create the whole story. Horrible gameplay with endless slaughter of "sheep". After playing 1 hour I was really bored and glad I only had the demo and not bought the full version. -

Dec 10, 2017Pro: Smooth, crisp, satisfying play.
Cons: Artificial advancement system where a power level 50 and power level 300 deal the same damage to the same enemy when they're standing next to each other. Also, negligible endgame content.
Worst of all, they removed content from the original game and put it behind a DLC paywall!
Scum of the earth video game developers. -
Dec 11, 2017Pure money scam, not worth a buy. Whole game is being locked behind paywalls and forces you to buy DLC, and content that was in Destiny 1 has been cut out and is now nbeing sold back to us.
DONT BUY BUNGIE GAMES ANYMORE, they arent the same company they used to be -

Jan 13, 2018Overall downgrade from Destiny 1.
Complete slap in the face to all fans.
Old Bungie > New Bungie.
0 Respect for their playerbase, they only care about Eververse money now. -
Feb 2, 2018You know, this game was a lot better than I thought it would be. Graphics were great and the story was pretty ok. Competitive mode isn't very much fun and the game is kind of repetitive but it was easily dealt with. Destiny 2 shouldn't have such a negative response but the publisher/developer or whatever has really started to being... not the nicest of people. That's a warning.
-
Oct 28, 2019I started playing whit the game in the “vanilla” Destiny 2.
But now 10. 2019., after 70 hour in the new expansion (Shadowkeep) i can say: this is the best online - looter - shooter game.
Cons:
- 1-2 item too grindfest
Pro:
- Netcode very good
- Graphic, sounds very good
- Gameplay, and gunplaye is awesome
- Whit the 2 expansion we have lots of content (both PvP and PvE) -
Apr 22, 2021Action is not bad but game play is somewhat not pulling the player inside..

Mar 9, 2022Hypocrisy of Bungie in harming russian players because of Ukraine situation. Games are not involved in politics!
-
Mar 10, 2022Russian and Belarus gamers aren't to blame for the war in Ukraine. It's very sad that Bungie don't understand this.

Dec 8, 2017Destiny 2 was good and quite funny... but then... here it comes the DLC Paywall for vanilla content of Destiny 2: if you own Destiny 2 and you don't buy the DLC Curse of Osiris you can throw the game in the trash. ARE YOU SERIOUS Bungie? I need to pay another 20 bucks for a recycled copy paste - and 2 hours campaign after paying the full price of the main game?
-
Mar 2, 2022No willingness to support Steamdeck. Worse, they will ban for using it. I bought the game. Their stance is terrible.
-
Dec 2, 2017boring, unimpressive, even graphics are average.
After The Division came out I was really hooked up by gameplay and visuals and while I stopped playing after I reached max lvl I still come back to this game from time to time.
Destiny 2 is just below any other shooter I played this year.
just waste of time -

7.5/10 • Fun for about 300 hrs (I have 300+ on Battle.net), after that not so much.

Feb 6, 2018While Destiny 2 has a solid foundation and a robust story campaign, its endgame content feels a little lacklustre. The sandbox doesn't have a whole lot of depth, and plumbing each of the hub worlds for secrets doesn't feel that rewarding. Grinding Public Events, Raids, and Strikes with friends is definitely a lot of fun, but there's a huge disconnect between content being cleared and your character strength increasing. There's still a lot of room for Destiny 2 to grow but, for now, it's still got a few kinks to work out.
-
CD-ActionJan 10, 2018In a nutshell, Destiny 2 for PC is the same outstanding game we played on consoles, but even more enjoyable thanks to spectacular visuals, masterful optimization and much more suitable controls. [13/2017, p.75]
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 2, 2018Play this great shooter with your friends, it pays off. Then it will offer hours and hours of great fun without the stereotype. But be prepared the endgame will thoroughly test your patience and willingness to grind. [Issue#280]
