Oct 5, 2017Destiny: The Dark Below, the first DLC for Destiny is a criminally disappointing and lackluster mess that only seeks to push the remaining Destiny players away from the game.
Apart from an OK raid, The Dark Below offers nothing new the Destiny experience and essentially ignores the last 3 months of progress made by players. -

Sep 4, 2015This might be a joke... 20€ for a Raid and about 5 new missions? Really poor back story.
Bungie hasn't solved any problems the main game had, they even made them worse.
if you don't own this DLC: DON'T BUY IT! -
May 30, 2015The Dark Below makes the exact same mistakes as Destiny, only with poorer production values. The one good thing about The Dark Below is the inclusion of a second raid. Crota's End is not as fun as The Vault of Glass, but it does provide some variety in 6 player PVE.

Feb 24, 2015This does not deserve to be called an Expansion, and it does not deserve to cost more than $5. This is an embarrassment to the term Expansion, and even an embarrassment to DLC. A low point for the Destiny franchise. More wasted potential.

Feb 16, 2015Don't Buy DLC or Don't Buy Season Pass.
This is Pay to Unlock since Fileszie is less then 200MB Really under 10mb.
Skip this also all others one coming for Destiny. -

Jan 20, 2015This expansion DLC is nothing more than re-used content, 3 short "story" missions, and little more that is not worth the ridiculous price of 19£... Bungie lost it respect for the fans. Shame on you Bungie.

Dec 30, 2014This is the DLC that Bungie shoved plot holes in? Well it's WAY worse than the game itself, the characters are boring and it's the same old bad RPG everyone knew months ago. The Dark Below claims the title for the worst DLC of the year or of the history. IAM not spending more money on this stupid game!
-
Dec 30, 2014One of the most blatant money grabs in gaming history. Almost no new content. This DLC basically sends you back to parts of the game that you've already played. You're mostly paying for some new guns and a very short raid that can now be beaten solo. Not even worth your time, let alone your money.

Dec 20, 2014Destiny was one of the most hyped games of the year. It was truly awful and I will tell you why. The level system is ingrained in everything. Every time you level up, you need to equip new weapons. Certain enemies will be hard one moment but easier to kill a little later because you are a higher level.

Dec 19, 2014what a joke… half the new levels are within old areas anyway. it does not feel new or fresh at all. no re-playability. i signed up just so i could write a review on how bad this expansion is
-
Dec 19, 2014$5.00 worth of new content for $20.00 with the added bonus of screwing up the weapons/armor progression. Sadly, you will need to purchase it to keep playing as many of the activities are DLC locked.

Dec 18, 2014I'll make this quick. Another DLC to have a couple of minutes of gameplay. I did it wrong. I trusted again bungie. This game was born bad and will continue again to be awful

Games Master UKFeb 22, 2015An extension of Destiny's triumphs and flaws that ultimately wins us over with its new raid. [Mar 2015, p.68]
-
Feb 10, 2015Once again Bungie has failed to deliver what was expected by most of its following. This DLC's additions to the main game are almost superficial with the repetition, the main flaw of Destiny's design, being its bane.
-
Playstation Official Magazine UKFeb 7, 2015The Dark Below doesn't revolutionise Destiny's addictive endgame, but the superb new missions and the lure of new gear should tide you over 'til the House of Wolves. [Feb 2015, p.91]
