I think the problem with Destiny 2 coincides with player expectation. I think most people coming from D1 were expecting an amount of content equal to 3 YEARS of D1 to be in D2. Which is an unrealistic expectation for a game that is basically a restart to the Destiny franchise. Everyone expected WAY TOO MUCH and when they didn't get it they played for awhile and left. I have no problem with the "content drought" we are supposedly in. Too me THIS IS EXPECTED. This is basically vanilla Destiny. Only better. A few changes to how things work would be okay with me. But the content "amount" seems about right for a NEW Vanilla launch. The only thing that wasn't supposed to be "vanilla" about this game is how the story was supposed to be canonically linked to D1. Other than that... this is a vanilla restart to Destiny. Just better. That is what I think. Thank you.
This was my reply to the youtube video in the link above.

People dont even have to do end game content but simple patrol and public events to get to max light level. If this was a mario game it wouldnt have any gaps to jump over just blocks, the fire flower would kill in 2 hits, raccoon tail would only let you jump higher and not fly. the game is good, but once you reach max level there is nothing left to do. You dont even have to do any thing that is considered end game and that isnt a good thing. The game is lacking in a lot of areas. With how much we saw Bungie learn from Destiny 1 you would think that there would be a lot in D2 but there just isnt. there is literally no reason to do night falls or raid. the game is too easy cause there is less content than the base game from D1. If Bungie knew that they were going to have static rolls they should have at least have had many many more guns. Armor its self is absolutely pointless. no way to customize builds cause there isnt any perks on them. So much of what was expected out of a game that previously went through so many updates to improve the game its self, none of that was there. Guardians are just shells of what they were. Bungie has limited what a person can do to build towards a play style a player wants to do. So what D2 is, is limited guns, limited armor, limited activities and limited classes. Even looking at D1, D1 had more stuff to do when it was released. the foundation was already layed, what they gave gamers in D2 is basic bare bones and damn near a beta. it hasnt been a month they have had 3 years, and it had been delayed and again the only thing they improved was public events. The whole game is a cut and paste but with things taken away. We shouldnt be going through another phaze of, it will get better just wait and see. No other game in the industry is getting a free pass like this from people blindly excepting either lazyness or deceitfulnes. But i am glad you are happy with mediocrity.
