    Great live service looter shooter. PvP sandbox is not in the best shape (was better before). But is still fun to play.

    # Prós #

    * Sistema de Puzzle das Raid's são fenomenal....até 6 pessoas jogando para resolver problemas e no final derrotar um Boss....combinando seus poderes, habilidades e armas....

    * Jornadas das armas exóticas, com mini Puzzle, parkour e mini Boss desafiadores...

    # Contras #

    * Dlc's custam preço de um game lançamento, e seu conteúdo nos últimos lançamentos são fracos, novas campanhas curtas....

    * Além de comprar DLC's que vem ( capadas ) é necessário adquirir passe de temporada, caso contrário você não terá muito o que fazer no game ao virar da chave em casa reset ......

    * Novos modos de jogos incluídos a cada temporada, são repetitivos, lembrando a mecânica de outros que já teve em temporadas passadas....
    Sem falar que para conquistar algum objetivo você é obrigado a jogar várias e várias vezes a mesma missão, muito repetitivo e cansativo...

    * Eventos de Solstício, cada vez mais curto e chato, repetitivo sem grandes recompensas...

    * Perderam a mão no enredo do game.....
    Excluíram partes bacanas....como as 2 primeiras DLCs....estão sem criatividade trazendo coisas da primeira versão do game.....se embolaram a contar a história....ficou muito complicado.....

    ### Meu Resumo Final ###

    É um bom jogo....se você joga com amigos....e está com os passes de temporada em dia....e buscando subir a luz....e fazendo as Raid's
    Porém se você joga solo....vai desistir logo que terminar a campanha principal ou até mesmo antes....
    Jogo se tornou mercenário.....tudo que é importante vc tem que ( Ou comprar uma DLC Deluxe ou ir a cada 2, 3 meses comprando conteúdo de temporada, chave de masmorra entre outras coisas.....)

    Vou esperar a próxima DLC anunciada para fevereiro de 2024, e torcendo pro game seguir outro caminho a partir desse conteúdo....caso contrário eu vou abandonar.

    Destiny 2 is a must have for every Halo-style space-shooter fan! The great thing about it is, that it's fun both solo and multiplayer. An AAA title and it's for free. Check it out! Overall rating: 7.8.

    I'm pretty sure that I'm addicted to crucible and everything I have is somehow based off of crucible. Actual game wise it's alright, great concept, good weapons, and I only have played hunter, haven't created a single other character.

    Best Abusive Relationship I've Ever Been In.

    Seriously, I'm at the point where Destiny 2 has me emotionally drained. The moment I hit A to load up Character Select I feel all emotion and drive ripped from my heart and soul because I know I'm just making futile progress that is going to get pushed back in 3 months and hard-reset come next year. It's exhilarating to feel my head cloud up
    Best Abusive Relationship I've Ever Been In.

    Seriously, I'm at the point where Destiny 2 has me emotionally drained. The moment I hit A to load up Character Select I feel all emotion and drive ripped from my heart and soul because I know I'm just making futile progress that is going to get pushed back in 3 months and hard-reset come next year. It's exhilarating to feel my head cloud up with this apathetic nothingness as I throw myself back down to the soil to farm for shiny purple and yellow candy. All jokes aside, Destiny 2 has one of the worst, most gaslighting gameplay loops in the history of the gaming industry. I don't doubt that Bungie wanted to make something good, but I laugh with boastful incredulity at anyone that says they are still making something good.

    Easily the most despicable and draconian of the Gear Score Loot Shooters, Destiny 2 exists as an Uroboros that is constantly sunsetting more content then it bothers to offer up. With occasional filler content that floods the Vanguard Playlist to make up for the utter lack of Strikes and a PvP that has been a rotting carcass since launch, yet somehow dictates the developers' actions 100%, Destiny 2 may as well be called Destiny 2050. Bungie constantly and consistently pumps nothing but temporary content that gets worse and worse by the season, ironically improving their storytelling as their ability to actually develop fun things to do deteriorates. It's honestly a miracle that this game isn't dead already because better games have turned to dust over lighter crimes against their communities than Destiny 2 commits on a weekly basis.

    Bungie is nothing but a name at this point and it isn't a name you should bother sticking around for. Their content quality is going the way of SOE, even if we don't have a particular figure to really blame for it yet. The continued persistence of the player population seems to be out of a genuine love for this universe, it's just a shame that Bungie has proven time and time again that they can't deliver on Destiny's potential.

    Don’t let Destiny 2 being “free” fool you. What is available for free is akin to a demo. You have to sink hundreds of dollars into the game to get what is considered to be the full experience. The game is very niche, chances are if you play the demo, you will know right away whether or not Destiny 2 is for you.

    With all that said, there is a lot of content available in the game if you do

    With all that said, there is a lot of content available in the game if you do pay for all the expansions. There are potentially hundreds of hours in it for the player. Raids and cooperative content are where this game really shines, so if that sounds appetizing to you then I’d say the game will be worth the hefty toll. Overall, it’s really one of those games where you have to decide for yourself if it’s worth it.

    Este juego es la peor invercion que jamas haya echo, aqui los puntos:

    1. El pvp esta roto, pasaras la mayor parte del tiempo siendo oneshoteado independiente de tu resiliencia... El pvp es solo supers, revolvers que te matan de un disparo, cheaters, francotiradores y lanzacohetes con rastreo y hechizeros y titanes que se pasan todo el rato volando y tirando mierda. 2. El pve es mas roto

El pvp es solo supers, revolvers que te matan de un disparo, cheaters, francotiradores y lanzacohetes con rastreo y hechizeros y titanes que se pasan todo el rato volando y tirando mierda.

    2. El pve es mas roto que el pvp, si eres un jugador que disfruta jugar juegos en solitario, este juego no es para ti, pasaras la mayor parte de tu tiempo estancado en asaltos ocaso de 1290 por que no podras hacer ocasos legendarios de 1320 ni mucho menos maestro de 1350 y ni muchisimo menos gran maestro debido a que tardaras 1 a 2 horas en pasar una sola mision intentando matar enemigos comunes que te aguantan 2 cargadores completos con modificaciones en donde no pararan de espamear granadas, te rushearan como si fuera el fin del mundo, enemigos mas fuertes con escudos que una vez rotos lo recargaran en 3 segundos sino los oneshoteas en el momento(lo cual no podras) que ademas solo pueden ser rotos con armas de un cierto elemento y que solo puedes llevar 2 y que en ciertas misiones hay enemigos que tienen los 3 elementos por lo que no podras matar a uno de ellos sin gastar municion pesada(escencial para el jefe final) y que suelen salir muy poco en misiones de alto rango ademas que ser misiones de rango alto no te garantiza buen loot, de echo es malisimo, solo objetos en su mayoria azules y morados con pesimas estadisticas y baja potencia(necesaria para salir del cap limite 1320, en el cual sigo estancado a pesar de dedicarle varias horas), sin mencionar que todos los enemigos incluidos los comunes son esponjas de daño que te resisten cargadores enteros de armas fuertes y claro ellos pueden matarte extremedamente rapido y tu los matas extremadamente lento. Bungie creo un juego que no puedes disfrutar solo ya que todas sus misiones te obliga a jugarlas en grupo y es gracioso ya que habilitan matchmaking en ocasos de rango bajo pero lo desabilitan en rangos mas altos, entonces quien entiende a estos primates? Osea no puedes disfrutar solo y tampoco en grupo a menos que tengas clan que hablen tu idioma y no sean toxicos, ya que por lo que eh visto y oido, la comunidad de jugadores de destiny es asquerosamente toxica y nada amigable con jugadores nuevos. 3. Raids, son el contenido end game que nunca eh jugado por que no tengo como y abarcan casi todo el mundo del juego junto con las mazmorras lo que significa que no podras optar a las mejores cosas por que no estan habilitadas para ser completadas solo, o sea estas obligado a jugar con otros y de la forma que ellos quieren que juegues y no como tu quieres jugar. 4. Si te quejas que EA mete microtransacciones a todo, pues dejame decirte que destiny es mucho peor ya que todo su juego son microtransacciones y que sin ellas te aseguro que ni siquiera saldrias de la Tierra que es el primer mundo donde apareces y son varios mundos y cada uno de ellos es un dlc por el que tienes que pagar y sino pagas, no tienes acceso a las misiones y contenido end game, armaduras, armas y mods necesarias para el contenido de mayor dificultad, en resumen, sino pagas por los mil y un dlc's que tiene destiny 2 practicamente no haces nada y no tienes acceso a absolutamente nada, ni misiones, ni raids, ni mazmorras, ni armas y armaduras fuertes y mucho menos contenido exotico.

    Si realmente quieres disfrutar de un buen juego, no compres el destiny 2, yo la cague en grande, pero tu no la cagues... Gastaras mucho y recibiras poco a cambio. Solo podras acceder al mundo de destiny 2 pagando los mil y un dlc que tiene y los mil y un mas que vendran a futuro, no puedes disfrutar del juego en solitario por que esta configurado como un juego social pero a un nivel extremo, para conseguir buen loot tendras que grindear la misma mision una y otra vez y rezar para que te toque algo bueno ya que grindear en los eventos del mundo no vale la pena, el loot es pesimo incluido el de eventos heroicos. El pvp esta roto como dije antes, no vale la pena tocarlo, el desbalanceo que tiene es casi tan grande como la dificultad de los NPC en las dificilultades mas altas de los asaltos ocaso.

    the game used to be absolute **** the expansion packs and dlc were pointless storage hogs as well. the game didn't feel like a shooter, it felt more like a slot machine
    now, bungie's cut some content, reworked the game, and now it feels like an actual game. the combat's really fluid, just like the first one, it's now free to play (like destiny should've been), and overall, seriously cool

    What's wrong with people not liking this game. It's the same team that made Halo and if you're a fan of that, you will love D2. The way you control your character is absolutely fantastic and smooth. The weapons are awesome and armor cool. It is just so vast universe. You can either play entirely PvE or you can choose PvP. And the environments are gorgeous. Love it, love it, love it.

    Destiny 2 really could have been great. At first glance, it looks like a glimmering, smooth as butter shooter with some MMORPG mechanics providing longevity.

Then you visit another planet and it feels like a repainted version of the other planet. You quickly start collecting loot that is almost identical to your existing gear, except with a couple stat numbers increased. PvE is an agonizing mindless grind, like eating stale Cheetos for some meager satisfaction when you have nothing else to eat, but it leaves a nasty taste in your mouth. PvP is a laughably unbalanced joke maybe included to appease Halo fans expecting something much different from the once great developer Bungie. Destiny appears to be many things, but appearances can be deceiving. The planets you explore are very pretty, but so linear. Most locations are like the most simplistic three-lane Call of Duty map design, scaled out by a thousand. Exploration is very linear. The lore, plot, and sense of atmosphere, are extremely thin, and lacking any soul. I would summarize this online-only game by saying that is a solid 6 to 8 hours of free entertainment, until you start gagging on the stale repetitive gameplay, and refuse to be strung along by this barebones game covered in glitter (or glimmer)… Also, the first 30 minutes are so similar to the original Destiny, that I honestly thought I had accidentally loaded up the first Destiny.

    The game has become even worse in my opinion. It feels even more like a tedious looter shooter/ sweat game because dlcs and “season passes” are what keeps the game going. Destiny 1 was flawed but destiny 2 is fundamentally a bad game

    Destiny 2 still fails to live up to the studios behind it.

    To preface: I've been a fan of Destiny ever since (2012?) where I saw the art for the Titan subclass, ever then I excitedly awaited the release of Destiny 1, and while Destiny 1 had its flaws, it's the first year was some of the most fun and memorable times I've had playing a video game. The same cannot be said for this game.

The same cannot be said for this game.

    While Destiny 2 has an actual story compared to Destiny 1 that had none. It still just falls back on an exciting and interesting first 30 mins then falls into mediocrity, as it relies on cliches, touches on interesting concepts and ideas that you'd expect from watching the trailers (At least the D1 trailers, D2 relies on the Call of Duty like way of storytelling.) but this game never is confident enough to go deep into interesting themes, and rarely likes to have our characters weak. And while this review is mainly for the base game, the Forsaken DLC story has the same issue, first 30 mins are amazing and emotional than just drop and die.

    That's kind of the issue with Destiny, it seems like so much more than it is. You want it to be a World of Warcraft like SCI-FI MMO, while it can deliver on the SCI-FI part, the MMO? Not so much. Destiny 2 (in its current state 9/3/2019 and it still was as boring during launch) is a weakly cobbled mess. There's little incentive to do anything anymore, you rarely need the best exotic gear to defeat a boss, just pick a loadout from this range of Subclass and a massive handful of weapons and you're ready to go! Which isn't really a bad thing, I actually enjoy not having to have one of two rocket launchers to let me raid with people (A feature of Destiny 1's DLC) But there's no incentive to do the raids, there's no incentive to anything really besides FASHION. As the gear you obtain will scale with you to the max, you don't need to beat the hardest challenges to become the strongest level. You just need to play enough. This game will hand you out items like Christmas, hiding away other more unique weapons behind long, (which is sometimes bad) and sometimes needlessly long quests. They vary in how pointless they are, with some being fun to do and others being a needlessly long slog, I'm all up for a challenge, just not intentionally wasting my time grinding a boring activity, which is what Destiny 2 becomes in the end.

    If you're new, you'll have plenty to do. It'll be fun, and cool and exploring Destiny 2's environments will be so cool and fun, getting exotics and legendaries will feel like a blast! Then you reach the max light and the game becomes a grind, there's no reason to keep playing besides fashion, any loot you want is too easily accessible (not saying it's EASY to get, it's just TOO for how hard it should be) The game incentivizes grinding through it's challenges and loot systems which is why I am writing this review, this is my fourth time I've been burnt out from this game. And won't be playing it again until Shadowkeep comes out, just for me to get bored of that as well.

    Started out being lazy garbage. Has improved dramatically up until the "Annual Pass". The 1st "content" drop was Black Armory which was locked off to players who had not hit light lvl 600.

    Next "content" drop looks to rectify the "must be light lvl _____ to play" but its all about... Gambit. Now there's a new, sweatier version of Gambit and this new season is all about Gambit. Don't

    I had an initial spark of hope when Bungie split from Activision, thinking "finally, they'll stop making so many mistakes". Sorry folks, it wasn't Activision who was screwing Destiny up. It's Bungie. It's 100% Bungie and this latest update proves that.

Translation: make a game about grinding for loot but only allow players to get said loot once a week and even then it may not be better than what you have. Nothing to see here folks. Just wait for Destiny 3. Should be dropping soon.

The loot is supposed to be unique, not the same thing with a different light level. It's uninspiring, boring, it's **** I'm also aware that the 'Curse of Osiris' expansion offered so little in content it is unbelievable. Also, locking things from DLC behind the eververse is pathetic. The content from DLC that YOU the consumer spent money on, is locked behind another pay wall. This game is laughable. Is it fun to play PvP, kill some bad guys, and look somewhat cool? Yes for a few minutes. The base game is not, and never will be worth the price tag of $60, and I shouldn't look to expansions and DLC for something good and better. The base game should be the full package, not half of it. it's insulting. Expand

    Well, where should I begin. This game is really better than it's predecessor, but that's all. It still has good gunplay but many of the flaws of Destiny one. Almost endless corridors where absolut nothing happens. You walk those corridors for minutes and eventually something might happen but most time, nothings happens. Well your "ghost" tells you things on the way, but also very rarely.Well, where should I begin. This game is really better than it's predecessor, but that's all. It still has good gunplay but many of the flaws of Destiny one. Almost endless corridors where absolut nothing happens. You walk those corridors for minutes and eventually something might happen but most time, nothings happens. Well your "ghost" tells you things on the way, but also very rarely. Sometimes you can't even see a thing and you must guess where the way is (thx to HDR not even increasing the gamma level helps in these areas).

    Worst of all, there are campaign missions that send to to the same place you just left and walked minutes to get there. And than you see the same areas again but with more of the same enemies.

    Yes the design of the areas is interesting, but it all means nothing if there is no interaction with anything and nothing to do than just to walk through.

    Another thing is, this game requires a server connection, which is really strange, because the count of players you can meet is really restricted. And if you loose your connection right before the end of a campaign mission (and you walked a lot for that) you must restart the mission as soon as you have your connection back. And that happens far to often for a game that requires those servers. I really don't understand why they need the server-connection, because you are always in an instance hosted by your (or another players) console. The server should just be required for the initial player-connection (lobby) and the "city" (where you can "interact" with some more players but not mmo-like) but nothing more.

    Story-wise it is better than Destiny 1. Now it seems that your actions actually matter, but it is still more of the same. No attachment to any character, no characters you can build on, nothing personal, …
    Yes there is a dull story now but well… there is really nothing that can be spoiled.

You don’t make a good game by taking things away from players after they’ve been using them for a year.. you don’t make a good game by completely changing the rules half way through its lifespan. And, yes, I’ve heard they did this with D1, but I had the good fortune of getting tired of D1 within a month of its release. With no one on my friends list to play it with and no way to matchmake for raids or strikes I had exhausted that game within 1 months time and sold it. D2 comes around and I have more friend playing it. More features to make it easier to group up and actually get things done in the game. A lot of solid improvements overall from D1’s launch, but as time goes on I see more and more how lost Bungie is with this game. A company that has no concept of basic rpg gameplay or mechanics. They keep throwing things at the wall hoping things will stick, but the only good things that stick are little flakes of gold stuck in handfuls of cow dung. This is a break up letter to what was once one of the greatest game developers, Good by, Bungie. Your only destiny is to fade away. Never again. Expand

    the story is only marginally better than the best game of destiny 1, but thats not saying much. they recycled the same subclasses and reskinned new ones from the previous ones, painting a shamefully pathetic image that they did something new when they didnt.

    the loot is garbage and the exotics are sub par in feel and look. all the bosses are reskinned in each missions, and all of the same enemy factions from the previous game are back, yet nothing new is even added to them except a couple new weapons and thats it.

    destiny 2 is a lazy reboot of a cancelled expansion by bungie, they thought they could ride into the sunset with minimal effort put into this game, and they failed miserably. they had three years of feedback from destiny 1, and they threw all of that out the window because they only thought of profits and know they can abuse their fanbase without any sort of hard repercussions.

    I had over 1500 hours in Destiny 1. It is now July 2018 and i haven't played Destiny 2 since March. The campaign was short, but sweet. It included the much needed story sorely lacking from the original however Ghaul (the main protagonist) has a side story that does little to advance the main story arc. Beyond the campaign there is actually initially very little to do. The PvP has been ripped to bits. Curse of the Osiris came out and was very substandard, Warmind followed a few months later and whilst it certainly added some much needed content AND a worthwhile grind there was ultimately still little to do. Destiny 2 is currently riding a wave of negativity that Bungie has never seen the likes of.
    Bungie even admitted to all their fans that as players we are better off waiting till this fall to play the game. To not have faith in your own franchise is extremely damaging.
    The fall update looks impressive, but ill wait for reviews to commit again. I would love an excuse to play Destiny again. Till then, you're better off with Warframe.

It's like opening a store with only two items to buy in it. It's pointless to even enter unless you NEED it.

    What disappoints me the most about Destiny 2 is that it is one of those games that gets better with time. It's been almost a year and we've gotten the second, SECOND DLC and it still feels like the same lackluster game since release. I personally got kicked out of at least 10 clans for inactivity because I would stop playing Destiny 2 for periods of time from being burnt out.

    After you beat the campaign and all the little side missions that don't do a whole lot for you. You can complete weekly activities every week. Mind you, these are the same activities EVERY week with maybe minor changes in constraints depending on what it is. There is no way to keep a fanbase around if you expect them to rinse and repeat the same content every week.

    As for the DLCs, dont even bother. Both of them are a waste of money. As they do offer new cosmetics, weapons, etc. They still lack the magic word of this review; content. For example, the raid of the first DLC takes place in the same place as the base game raid. I beat both DLCs combined in roughly 5 hours including the raids. The rewards aren't even that satisfactory to keep you coming back like Destiny had me coming back for the Vault of Glass.

    Critics will lie to you, I wont. Destiny 2 looks beautiful, but that's where the green grass stops growing. If you want a game that will keep shoving the same content in your face every week with the inclusion of DLC and microtransactions then Destiny 2 is right up your alley. I am personally disappointed in the sequel to what did become a good with time. Destiny 2 however, I feel will have a darker fate. Bungie has let me down for the last time.

    Luke Smith, the game's director, said in the spring that he doesn't want Destiny to be a "time sink," which is why Destiny 2 feels as though it was built for the casual player. Those complaining about it are those who have thousands of hours into the first Destiny. And, you're probably asking yourself "How can anyone play a game that long without getting bored?" Well, because Destiny had elements that made the rewards different each time, giving a false sense of added content. But, it worked. Static rolls in Destiny 2 to help control balance changed this, making every duplicate weapon or piece of armor that you get worthless. Yes; you get legendary shards for dismantling them, but you'll soon realize that you have more than you know what to do with.

    In short, the content of Destiny 2 is great; and, there actually is a story. What a shock. But, there is no lasting incentive for people to keep playing. There simply is no end game and, eventually, no reason to play.

The thing which I loved about the first Destiny was that I actually wanted to play the game over and over.

    Now positive things. This game's story was so much better than the first, it took me completely by surprise. Thank you Bungi and Activision. Another thing is the visuals of this game are stunning and quite less bland than the first game (although some things are recycled).

    To the people who complain about similarities between this game and the first. Just because that is the case, this game does not deserve a 4.3 user score just. it feels so much more complete than the first Destiny without any add-ons. I feel sad about the hate. No game is perfect and just because you thought this game would be perfect doesn't mean you can just rate it 0*.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok. Here goes. Before I start I would say this - I have spent hundreds of hours playing Destiny 1, I got myself all the DLC for D1 and with the exception of last one (the rise of iron) I enjoyed them equally and consider it worth my money. Stepping into D2 I was excited which later turned into frustration as it would seem that Bungie did not learn anything from D1 and went on its task to reinvent the wheel from the start:
    1.) Shooting mechanics and gameplay - these guys made halo and have already proved themselves in terms of gun play. No issues here at all Bungie. This might be your only saving grace.
    2.) Story – You have at least 4 major plots to cover (one for each race of enemies) and then there is the big question of the big balloon hanging in the sky (the traveler). The pace at which you are telling us the story, you are going to run out of time and sequels to finish them up. Example: Using D2 to introduce new chars – Garry and his cabal dogs (btw they are the only new enemy type in D2) and a completely new story that asks more questions than it answers. Do we know more about the traveler now? No we don’t. Where are the Vex from, what do they want, how are they so powerful? Why have the Fallen’s united , Variks & Crow what are they upto ? and don’t for a second think that you are done with Hive / Taken. The Taken King DLC did explain a lot (thanks to Mylin & Byf) but you have again left the story hanging with lot of questions than answers. You guys need to make your story coherent and give it some depth, char development etc. Of all your mistakes, incoherent story, is the biggest one and it reflects in all your side plots as well –
    DESIGN THE STORY & GAMEPLAY IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT MAKES THE PLAYER ASK MEANINGFUL QUESTIONS LIKE - WHO IS THIS COOL LOOKING EXO? HOW DOES SHE KNOW SO MUCH? WHAT IS SHE GUARDING? WHO IS SHE TALKING TO ON THE COMM. LINK? HOW CAN SHE TELEPORT FROM ANYWHERE? HOW IS SHE CONNECTED TO THE TRAVELER?
    And then your answer: THE EXO STRANGER THANKS THE PLAYER FOR FIGHTING THE BAD GUYS AND GIVES THE PLAYER HER RIFLE. THAN DISAPPEARS , FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I am telling you Bungie you do not have enough time to warp up important story lines let alone the sub plots (I count 15 so far). We are two sequels and five paid DLCs down and you still haven’t told us anything. Every sequel / DLC introduces a new sub plot (yes I am calling the story of D2 a sub plot) that distracts from the main story and does not answer any of important questions we had from D1. We can have major plot related questions and still have fresh content – a DLC where the guardian take a journey inside the Traveler. Osiris DLC could have been used to answer questions about the VEX, it could have told us how they as a species got involved in all this, why worship the darkness. Instead you introduced a new boss and new story for Mercury. Osiris is a most powerful warlock that will go to any lengths to get results (in this case saving humanity), but in the end you made him look like some old hobo who does not care for any of this and in the end goes on a pilgrimage into the VEX gate to explore new world, with no information on VEX shared with the vanguard. He even says to his ghost in the end of DLC that “……..we have all the time in the world”, I get VEX alternate timeline & time travel and all crap, but is that the kind of tempo you want to build up as a narrative telling your player base that there is no urgency and you have all the time in the world. BTW no raid in this DLC, Raid layer does not qualify as new content.

    This game is lacking in everything, but graphic.
    This game is design for loot box pure and simple.

    This game is good but sadly doesn't live up to the original. In Destiny we had a RPG, now I don't really know; Destiny had iconic weapons and the only people who played for more than a week were the competitive players. Still bungie tries to bring in "Casual" gamers when the only people who play the game are the competitive ones.

    - The Story is fantastic. They nailed the narrative feel and structure with the campaign. The Red War is an epic quest that really drew me in from the first minute I powered the game on.
    - Mechanically, the game works really well. There aren't any major game-crashing glitches, not that i've seen. ( I have played 152 hours).
    - PVP and Matchmaking function and are fun to play, if you're playing with the right people.
    Bad:
    - The Endgame. Once you beat the story and hit level 20, the endgame feels... pointless, honestly. There are many fun things to do, and doing them for the fun of doing them is great, but the rewards don't always meet the effort. Iron Banner gear is great, but it's also exceedingly frustrating to grind for it for a whole week and still NOT GET ONE OF THE ARMOR PIECES AFTER OPENING 52 ENGRAMS. #notbitter.
    - PVP Variety: 4v.4 is great for pacing, and in the mechanics that they're using I understand why they went that way, but playing only 4v4 gets stale. 6v6 or 8v8 playlists for variety would be GREAT.

    Ultimately, I love this game and this franchise, and I'm going to stick with it. I know not everyone will, but I think the game deserves a fair shake. Bungie is listening to the criticisms and is actively planning and implementing adjustments based on our feedback. That's the kind of developer relation we need in this industry, and I think we should try to encourage that behavior in any way possible.

The first thing that comes to my mind is how the strikes are 100% USELESS. Next to the raid, the best way to get gear in Destiny 1 was doing strikes. In D2, strikes are completely pointless. They will take you about 20 minutes to do and they reward you with one or two rares and a few tokens. Sometimes you can get a legendary or even an exotic from the chest - odds are low. But, get this. There are also public events that you can do. They take 5 minutes and give you a rare or two and a token and have the chance to give you a legendary or an exotic... So, public events take 1/3rd the time of the strike and reward you about the same. WHAT IS THE POINT IN DOING THE STRIKES. Then, the amount of duplicate gear you get is downright disgusting. In D2, they made legendaries and exotics easier to get than in D1. The problem with this is that you will get so. many. duplicates. You put in all this work just to get rewarded with something you got 5 times before. There is no sense of accomplishment.

    Now, the story is there and it is better than D1's. Not hard to accomplish that feat. The story is okay at the most - very repetitive. You will likely be pleased the first time around, but if you're planning on making three characters then doing the story will be a nightmare. There is no re-playablity in it. You're better off running around and doing public events FOR 5 HOURS to get to 20.

    Easily the biggest disappointment in 2017. There really is no good endgame here. I will not touch on the raid because I haven't done it. IMO, save your money or wait until a couple expansions come out before considering to buy. The game could have been a DLC for the first game and no one would be complaining one bit about it.

I beat the raid on my first try in 5 hours and now usually beat it in a hour and a half if all goes well. Its pretty easy since there is only one boss, that's right one. All the other phases are mazes or things your fireteam does as a unit just while clearing tons of ads. So your literally taking down groups of infantry with a few yellow elites thrown in here and there the whole raid till you finally hit Calus. It does make for good loot however the prestige raid loot is not worth it at all. That's the only reason I'm not giving it a 10. I was really hoping it would do more to make the raid more difficult as well as give better rewards. Then again day one destiny 2 beats the stank off of vanilla destiny 1. Expand

    Strikes have borderline no value, the raid was somewhat challenging but with effort and marginal common sense beatable, and the fact that I only had to play once, maybe twice a week for the weekly resets are more annoying than anything else. Once you hit level cap you have a boring grind for tokens to hopefully obtain a marginally decent weapon.

    Crucible (the PvP) will always have balancing issues, and if you can look past the imperfect nature of the game I suppose that is one of the few redeeming qualities.

    Overall I wasted my money on this, and will not be purchasing the DLC nor a Destiny 3. I have a few friends that give the excuse that "its a work in progress," and my answer to them is their being conned if they think Destiny will somehow overhaul with massive changes that gamers actually want.

    If you haven't bought it, don't.

The PVE is somewhat improved, although it's somehow quickly gotten more boring, more quickly (partially because the exotics don't seem as exotic, and the public events are extremely repetitive). But the real downfall in my view in the PVP. The most powerful -- and only -- weapon in PVP is now team-shotting. That's it. There's no going out there and being a hero or carrying your team or surviving a 2-v-1 . . . if you go up against a fireteam as a bunch of solos, you get destroyed, period. It's made PVP so boring.

    Smaller issues that make matters worse include: the game randomly puts you in whatever playlist it wants, and all playlists are 4v4. There's no Rumble. The Competitive playlists take too long. Everyone uses a very narrow variety of weapons because most weapons aren't effective with the incredibly slow ttk. The power ammo economy slows down the game and makes it less exciting. Sniper rifles have been utterly gutted. Players can be too easily shot out of their supers -- and supers charge too slowly. And perhaps the worst thing about these secondary problems is that it narrows the skill gap between players, with unreliable weapons (and massive flinch) that levels the playing field between novices and skilled players. Gunfights feel a lot more random and out-of-control.

    All of this leads to lots of blowouts, where teams and team-shotting are absolutely dominant, and solo players like me just have a miserable experience.

    D1 was addictive, exciting, and fun -- allowing for lots of different playstyles and strategy. D2 narrows it down to one: have a fireteam, or lose most every game. Hate it.

    Only good thing is that D2 has helped me kick my addiction to D1. I'll be moving on to another franchise now. My prediction is that Bungie is losing players fast, and they'll have to make massive changes to these mechanics, or risk killing the entire franchise. Solid PVE should earn D2 around a 7 or 8, but the tragically awful PVP drags that down to a flat 1. Such bad decisions on display here.

    Destiny 2 is more accessible to the neophytes than the first game was, but still complex enough to get long-time players to invest hundreds of hours in the universe. The story of the campaign is less confused than in the original, but it’s not exactly good either. It went from painstakingly bad to ordinary, which is at least an improvement. Destiny 2 is the gaming equivalent of a Michael Bay movie.

    Destiny 2 is one of the most enjoyable games I’ve played this year, and tackles one of the biggest issues with the first game. Featuring a stellar, albeit easy, single-player campaign, excellent combat and class mechanics, and the most enjoyable cooperative multiplayer I’ve seen in a shooter since Gears of War 4, Destiny 2 is a must-buy.
