    Poorly conceived structures supporting too little new content mean this is, sadly, a great waste. [Feb 2015, p.86]

    Short on content, and long on grinding, The Dark Below fails to meaningfully enhance the Destiny experience.

    Ironically, the most fun part of the DLC is a quest to fill a special urn, purchased from weekend vendor Xur. It's a five-step quest in the vein of the Exotic Bounties, with a nice, varied set of objectives and no level requirements.
