    Destiny 2 is Bungie at their finest. Outstanding graphics, buttery smooth gameplay and a fun story brought to life with an amazing voice acting cast. The mix of shooter with MMO elements works really well. I love the over the top world events that scale nicely depending on how many players are actively engaged.

This is the best they've done since the original Halo trilogy.

    You have to ignore the toxic reviews, doubtful any of them actually own or have even really played this game. Just more negative poison being passed around. Also people seem to misunderstand that games don't need to support their cheating app, their special chat program or whatever random app they seem to think is so important to playing the game. That's not the developers responsibility, they don't owe you anything other than the game itself. Get it, play it, love it.    … Expand

    Destiny 2 = Copy and paste to the max.

    If you love Destiny than man oh man you are going to love Destiny 2 unless your sick of playing Destiny 1 because Destiny 2 is Destiny 1!

    The campaign can be beaten in under a day, enemies are all in a set spot with no interactions with the world just waiting for you to come.

    Pretty limited content and awful lack of social functions in a multiplayer game. It is actually impossible to even say "hi" to other players. Lack of ranking system and pretty unimpressive vanity elements.

I feel like Destiny 1 offers SO much more as far as end game content goes (granted Destiny 1 has had a couple of expansion packs to bring it to that point). Maybe once one or all of the planned expansions release the game will become a little more interesting. As for now, you'll only get about 3 hours of end game content every Tuesday.

    Pros:

    + Great graphics on PC
    + Fun (but short) story mode

    Cons:

    - Shallow end game
    - Gives you the sense that you've hit a wall and cannot progress any further
    - Raids and a lot of the end game content can NOT be completed without a group of friends or a clan (sucks for solo players)
    - Feels almost identical to Destiny 1 in every aspect, but without all Destiny 1 has to offer.    … Expand

That's bad for business and I have no intentions of purchasing another title that Bungie develops going forward.

    I have since received a full refund on my purchase since Blizzard was able to confirm that I have never logged into Destiny 2 (after official release date).

    I was able to play during Beta and that was enjoyable with decent graphics (not much improvement over Destiny) and the experience was far better than on console. Was it worth the outlandish price they're charging? Absolutely not.

    I don't recommend this game to anyone. Go play the original Destiny and forget about this waste of money.    … Expand

Have a blast, and the game will mess up some damned door and you will be separated. You will shout "Hey wait for me, I'm stuck!" They may hear you, they will look back to where you are. See the door open and say, "I can see you!" and then the game will decide "WHOA WHOA WHOA! What is this, HACKING?!" Maybe kick you out, and give you an animal as a "error code" which I'm sure is actually a real thing that the "smart" and not mentally challenged people at Bungie came up with. Or then it will split the two of you to different instances, allowing absolutely no way for you to reconnect. That friend you made? It was a ghost, it was a lie and was put there to make sure you know you're playing a game by developers that don't care about making a social game. They just want to sell you 100$ worth of **** and laugh at you for trying to enjoy it.

    My advice. Join the first clan you are invited into. If they suck, which they most likely will, leave and wait for the next one. Clans is the "minimized exposure" that Bungie has designed for the socially frail people that are online these days. Made to ensure you only ever meet at most 100 people at a time, if you dare to. Or in the very least, add every single player you see that waves at you as a friend, then later on kick them off if they are just listening to terrible music and have no idea they also have a microphone on their laptop. Join any player with an open fire team, these people are grave individuals, they are willing to meet people online?! Making friends in this game is the hardest challenge Bungie has invented with this latest release.    … Expand

    $60 for only 80 missions seemed wrong. Half of them re-ran you through the same areas multiple times with some different mobs and different voice acting. The same room was explained as different things depending on the quest. It was fun, but then I tried playing with a friend. We game a lot and don't have networking issues, however on this game we were plagued with disconnects. Also as we warped to different zones on the same map we had to communicate where we were as there was no map indicator. Strikes were OK, but the raiding is difficult unless you're part of a big clan. 3rd party tools are being used to find players, which require adding b.net friends and inviting them to a party and then dropping them at the end of the run.

    tldr: not enough content for $60, missing a pug option or in game community system to find & meet new players. Already going to make my account useless in a month with DLC, so it costs about $100 to buy in and stay relevant for 9 months.    … Expand

While it does look better than its console counterpart (which PC versions always should), its low quality visuals even when maxed, and random frame drops are dead giveaways of a pretty mediocore console port.

    The game itself is extremely repetitive, with dry, boring voice acting and dialogue to boot. The FPS elements aren't as tight as pure FPS games, and the RPG elements aren't as deep as RPG games. It tries to cover a lot of ground but doesn't make a very good effort at making how it covers that ground interesting. It plays like a Korean F2P title with a Western skin. Every time I booted it up, I felt like someone had injected me with a tranquilizer. There is nothing remotely redeeming about this game. Not even coop with friends could save it.    … Expand

This game also requires knowledge of the first game; if you don't know what happened in Destiny 1 you will have no idea what is going on. Not only is there almost no end-game content, but Bungie is also posed to launch a DLC that users have to pay for in December. Besides a few obvious differences like how they jump, the classes are extremely similar and only differentiate in a few ways. The talent trees for each class are extraordinarily dull and don't really change the way you play the game. People have said that this is a MMO-type FPS, but don't be fooled. This is not a MMO nor is it anywhere near one.

    The good parts of this game are the combat systems and the looks of the game. It really is one of the prettiest games I've ever seen and the combination of multiple weapon choices and weapon mechanics make combat exciting. There's also no difficulty settings so you can't ramp up the overly-easy standard difficulty or turn off the hilarious auto-aim setting.

    First is the severe lack of many social features. Inviting your friend to a party requires way too many clicks and menu openings, that is, once you find out how to do it in the first place; the process is too long and complicated for something that could be as simple as a chat command. Besides that, there is simply no local/region chat, no custom channels, and no channels for specific purposes (like a lfg chat), there is only a team and fireteam (party, essentially) chat. Furthermore there is no way to browse active clans ingame. These problems all exacerbate the issues I will be getting into next.

    Second, after reaching the endgame you will quickly reach a point where the only content that makes sense for you to do, requires you to be in a group. Inconveniently, there is no matchmaker for this content (nightfall strikes and raid). This in itself is not catastrophic, but it would have been nice to have a matchmaker. The real problem lies in the fact that not only is there no matchmaker, there is also no way to actually assemble a group for it ingame, no lfg channels, no lfg player status, nothing. To actually assemble a group, you need to use one of various third party tools. Personally I was tempted to join a clan at this point, to have some more consistent endgame options. You can join a clan through the rather archaic method of applying through a website. However upon joining a clan i realized that there is no clan chat, and thus discovered my clans discord channel. In the end, as a casual player, joining a clan turned out to be more or less joining a lfg channel, however even for that i have to tab out of the game.

    Playing through the endgame is an appealing idea to me, however I am not nearly committed enough to the game to jump through all those hoops for the chance on a good time, when I can just play other games instead.

    I found the game to be worth the box price, but no more. The game itself is fun, but severely gets in the way of you enjoying it after a certain point. If you think you might enjoy it, i would suggest you buy the base game with no season pass or whatever, and dont buy any silver either, untill you have completed at least one nightfall strike. At that point you should well be able to determine if you want to invest the effort to get into the real endgame, and, potentially, put more money into it.    … Expand

    I am going to give you an example. After the story was done, i had hit lvl 20, and gear level 265, i was hungry for more content, so i went and did EVERY SINGLE adventure in destiny 2, i spent about 6 hours on it, thinking, i am going to get the sickest reward for all this work. What did i get, not a f*cking thing.

    This is destiny 2 in a nutshell. The story is OK at best, short, predictable, lazy, after the story, the game i basically over. Even the grind to aquire better gear level is so boring i actually logged out of the game and went downstairs and asked my girlfriend how her day was, she looked at me and asked me if i was feeling well. No, i wasnt feeling well, i felt **** sad.

    This game has so much potential, how about one huge open world, with stories, events, quests for legendary gear, pvp, treasure hunting, constant progression, perks, so many different weapons you could have a loadout not everyone playing the same class as you had. a game that rewards exploring, crafting combining recources with shaders and mods to get armour pieces that were utterly unique, That would be amazing!

    instead i am left with an impression of being scammed, this game promised so much, had so much potential, the game looks gorgeous. Just imagine, if one of the zombies working at bungie had said; guys, lets make this game the mother**** best game open world rpg shooter the world has ever **** seen. Lets make the god damn World of Warcraft of shooters. No, instead they make a theme-park piece of crap that looks golden but has less content then my Instagram DM`s.

    Dont buy this game, its a cheap moneygrab and feels like a gold plated potato. i give this game a 2/10 because it looks nice.

    This game is boring.
    The story is non existent.
    The writing is cringey.
    The best cosmetic stuff is behind micro-transactions.
    The combat is ok.

    The positive reviews gave me hope but I regret buying this game.

    Destiny 1.5 with empty world and endless grind as end-game content.
    Maybe in future Bungie will fix this, but now my score is 0/10.
    Don`t buy this game!

    When there is more innovation in Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed, you know there was zero effort put into this game, they could've kept all content from Destiny 1 and added new content on top, but they threw it in the trash (Maybe to release in DLC later). They rehashed the same armor pieces/guns with different colors as "new content" and called it a day.

They rehashed the same armor pieces/guns with different colors as "new content" and called it a day. They put ZERO effort into designing interesting new mechanics/loot/gameplay elements/maps.

    This game is pretty on the outside(for marketing it's perfect) and disgusting on the inside(once you actually play, it's obviously just a cash grab). The art is beautiful, but why wouldn't it be? That's all you need to sell a game nowadays to people, pretty graphics and good music.

    Obviously if the base game was good, why would anyone buy DLC (thinks bungievision).

    This game could've been great, but money. They decided to re-release Destiny and remove everything good about it. It seems that Bungie looked at how The Sims can release a new game with zero features so that they can sell them later as expansions.

    However Bungie seems to have forgotten that they are not selling their game to teenage girls. They dumbed down every system, they made all the loot the same, they made it so the "casuals" aren't overwhelmed, but are casuals really as stupid as Bungie thinks? I think they aren't.

    Just because your testers are middle-aged men who never played a game in their life, doesn't mean that an average gamer wouldn't be able to figure out how your game works. Even casuals aren't as stupid as this game thinks they are.

    I wish any of this meant anything, but in the end, they made their moneys and they will continue their **** business practices until they run out of people who buy their games/micro-transactions.

    I am never going to buy anything that has the label Bungie/Activision EVER again. Fool me once... I can do without playing your generic ****.

    If the first game was on released today on PC, not a single person would be playing Destiny 2 after finishing the story. That's how empty this game is.    … Expand

    At first I thought this game is amazing but it's so flawed that it only deserves 0/10 imo.
    The PvP is even worse than the one in dishonored. P2P, Broken Matchmaking and you can't f***ing reconnect if you game kicks you out for no reason.
    The PvE content is pretty boring once you finished the raid and the story.

    What I didn’t like about the original game is what I loved in Destiny 2. I am talking about the story that has become much more complex. But this is not the only advantage and even not the main one. I played a PC version of the game and I can say that Bungie worked on optimization well. My laptop is quite old and still Destiny 2 runs smooth. Another important thing for me was that shootingWhat I didn’t like about the original game is what I loved in Destiny 2.

Another important thing for me was that shooting and aiming mechanics feel more stable than on a console (compared to the original game). The graphics look amazing, the picture is eye-catching, but I didn’t expect anything less than that. There might be a little more content but I hope the coming DLCs will fix that.… Expand

    While 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.

    In 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]

    Play 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]
