    Preordered destiny 2 for $120 with the season pass when it first came out. It said it included 4 expansions in the season pass ended up only getting 2 expansions despite what the preorder said and every other expansion after that bungie wants to charge the price of a full game for each new expansion.

Decent game but I don’t like being lied to and ripped off so haven’t touched destiny or destiny 2 in probably 4 years now! Way to go bungie your own greed has ruined your loyal following of destiny. Wonder how many people actually still play this game and waste their money on all these bogus expansions they release. Never again will I pre-order a game because if you haven’t noticed, every game since the 2000’s has been absolute trash and a complete money grab either full of micro transactions or selling additional content. What happened to just making great games for when they release? I know I won’t be wasting anymore money on buying a ps5 or all these trash overhyped games they make these days. They all suck, I would be happy to pull out the n64 again and play those games that are actually fun.… Expand

    Boring combat, confusing system and frankly illegal paywall setup to maximise profit over consumer.
    I've poured maybe 50 hours of repetitive gameplay into this with 0 growth as I refuse (and frankly don't understand) how to use their billing system as everything seems to have 4 or more separate charges to work!

    Fun for a while. Gunplay is solid and carries a good chunk of the experience, but characters are forgettable, loot feels meaningless, campaign is barely coherent, and only one mission really stands out in set and art design. Some worlds feel fun to play around in, others feel like largely barren wastelands.

    Bungie's follow up to the glorious Halo series was clearly developed as an online multiplayer experience...and it shows.

My pet hate - respawning - means that death is little more than an inconvenience and the constant stream of pick ups makes ammo too plentiful to make tactics and weapon swapping truly necessary.

Whether these details make sense or not. I highly guess most of the negative review people love the fast and furious series, which is in no way as real world as they make it out to be. The only reason I can't give the game a 10 is because their servers are very choppy when new seasons are about to drop.

    After playing it since 2018 (five years ago) my opinion went from bad to actually amazing. Great gameplay, an intriguing story, excellent characters, and overall, a worthy sequel that arguably even better than the original.

    As for the expansions you can play, well as long as you haven't done forsaken, you can still play it. I couldn't but someone said you could, and if you have only like 3 missions are available (1 per week). just really bad. Shadow keep isn't even worth mentioning i mean that expansion was so weak with content i'm surprised they don't call that the base game. They have amended the base game start to try and compensate but it isn't well done or thought through (typical bungie let's be honest, story threads are not their strongest point). Beyond Light was dull, because - same enemies, same stuff that you've been doing, very little diferrent.

    Witch queen slightly better (filled with the usual mission breaking quests even now in 2023) and "lightfall" the new one is lifeless, again same enemies... although ONE, one new type but not interesting enough to go "yes finally". i mean i'm not sure why this is even still going. DO NOT waste money on this. Don't let bungie keep going.... they make ubisoft and ea blush.    … Expand

    The gunplay and classes are great, however that's honestly it. It's just replaying the same content over and over again, pvp is a joke and the pve content locks you into requiring a squad which is super boring cause they just use whatever gun/combo instantly melts the boss which makes the devs have to stack the boss with either more HP or a dumb can't get hurt mechanic. Very disappointing.

    Ok if you haven't burned out on the looter-shooter-FPS-RPG genre, but be warned... you must buy expansions or else you can not accurately level past certain points in the game, and every time there is an expansion it's over in about 6 hours.

    Anything under a 7 would be unfair because of the sheer amount of time I have spent with my brothers here but I certainly would not recommend this game per se.

    The overall community is pretty toxic, there are tons of microtransactions (making the base game free didn't change **** about this payment model being super shady and unfair), the introduction for new players into the universe is espacially at this point super rough and you really gotta stick to it to have a chance to enjoy it and lastly it's nearly unplayable if you don't have friends to play it with.    … Expand

    Even if Bungie backtracks on some of these horrendous missteps, there’s evidence that the dev team is either flailing around without a clear idea of the experience they want to present, or even worse, they’re happy to offer the least amount of mediocre content possible until the player base starts pushing back. When free-to-play titles like Warframe and Let it Die seem monumentally more generous and offer vastly more entertainment value than a triple-A sixty dollar release built with a budget large enough to feed whole continents, it’s clear that something has gone horribly wrong.

    It’s this sense of streamlined player experience that really defines Destiny 2. Where the first game had you grinding for hours just to experience increasingly diminishing returns, this is a sequel that trims away its processor’s frustrations, firmly putting fun first.

    Destiny 2 is tough to compare to other shooters or games, but it is evidently a better title than part 1. The campaign is longer, the progression makes more sense, the structure is more satisfying and the sheen and splendor on the various planets entices even more. Destiny is comparable with its predecessor after the add-on The Taken King, and is therefore a more solid foundation for the coming months of content.
