Agreed, they put too many walls up in front of solo players. Also I swear they made alt characters need the "into the light/dark" Prismatic extra abilities quests forced to be "redone" on alt characters just to pad player time. Even if you pay for story campaign skip you still need to do those, its messed up, I think its all for "playtime hrs in game" Its ironic because that actually helped push me away, I said "I ain't doing all that again a 2nd, 3rd time" and I became disgruntled and apathetic

I don't even want to start this DLC :D after what I saw on YouTube and read on the forum.

Wait for a sale, maybe they fix things for solo players by then. The story is ..... some folks love it (but honeymoon period) I wanted more answers as 10 yr player, but the ending hit the nostalgia tear jerker moments (but even that on retrospection is kinda a why though) Gameplay more of same with immune phases bosses (that got old) and new lite raid mechanics, meh. Some of my issues are fatigue as 10 yr player, and the solo stuff. My advice is wait for sale, theres no rush.

Guardian is my twink account (get the level of addiction?) I've always pre-ordered deluxes, FS is no exception. I also played D1, so it's hard to impress me with a story that once again discusses Zavala's life problems (by the way, why is the main character never a guardian?) I don't feel the epicness of the moment when the saga of the struggle between light and darkness came to an end. all I see is stretching the gameplay to online numbers and trying to play on nostalgia. there is no soul in all this, like a beautiful shiny wrapper, behind which there is emptiness and now I choose between addiction and common sense. Does it make sense to waste time and effort on a game that is supposed to be fun but instead offers a pointless annoying grind? I love the game world of Destiny, I spent more than 7k hours in it (excluding d1), and now I really don’t see the point in continuing... maybe later, at the end of the year, when all this stuffy routine becomes easier, as Bungie has done more than once, when our time and effort are devaluting. sorry for my english, it's not my native language

[/quote] Feeling just the same, 10 yrs, felt like nostalgia bait ending with no real closure, just odd. [spoiler]I realized I was sad about Cayde even though I already was sad and saw Cayde die once already, so why should I have emotions again, they gave us nostalgia of cayde death to then have him sacrifice and die again, wait, wtf /spoiler] I see no point in continuing, and as a mostly solo player I'm salty and upset about all the forced multiplayer stuff. People can scream its an MMO or Multiplayer game all they want, I played 10 yrs mostly solo, so locking exotic class item behind 2 player thing sucks IMO. Game has become a hamster wheel treadmill, and I'm very over it, I'm over being NERFed and messed with whenever Bungie feels like it, I'm tired of playing THEIR WAY, I'm tired of the forced multiplayer, tired of same old seasonal grind, tired of fake nostalgia for what the concept art showed and what we "thought" this game would be 10 yrs ago.

[quote]The story is ..... some folks love it (but honeymoon period) I wanted more answers as 10 yr player.[/quote] A fair bit of the Zavala storyline was already covered by Season of the Haunted, seemed a bit.... meh. This is definitely a DLC that can wait for sale for those who haven't already got it.
