Where is the content?

I can't begin to describe my frustration at the lack of campaign in this game. A grand total of 5 story missions, a bunch of patrols and bounties and Bungie calls that year 3? I haven't got an issue with the fact Bungie have re-used the moon and brought back old enemies from Destiny 1, in fact, I really enjoyed it and love the premise of being haunted by our past. What I am not happy about is that I've paid money, thinking I'm going to get a game, but in fact I'm getting a few new missions and told to go grind out the same strikes and activities that have been on the go for the past year. Even Forsaken had far more story missions and 2 new locations to sink your teeth into. I know it's only the first week and there will be more things to come but I refuse to wait another 3 months before another dlc is released. It took 2 days of casual playing to hash everything out and hit power level 900 and now I'm supposed to what? Grind through the same strikes as before? Play crucible? Blow my load over iron banner? No. I can even guarantee the new Vex offensive thing that is coming will probably just be another escalation protocol with a new skin over it. For us players who don't enjoy PVP and prefer PVE and co-op modes where we can be immersed in a new world, mindlessly grinding through recycled mulch is not a pleasent experience.

  • That’s why I didn’t buy it. Been BURNED by Bungie too many times.

      I'll admit, the end felt like it was cut short. Like how tf did I even get out of there? No reaction to that last line, just "hey Eris, im back". No climactic fight? it deliberately sets you up for something big with that cut to black, only to leave you with "that's it?"

    • All the budget for the content went into the voice actor for your guardian.

        [quote]Where is the content?[/quote] I'm laughing at some of the replies on here. Holy cow! how far this generation has fallen. So selling games like this is now about cutscenes and lore, battle passes and Tess, right? not everything else that actually makes a looter shooter? This DLC was sold off of FOMO and is hurting real bad. Not when it comes to making money Not when it comes to activities, planets, added content like that Not when it comes to the skybox making things look pretty But just about everything else in this game is lacking leaving not much loot to chase and thousands of duplicates. Bungie couldn't even bother to create new gear for the new raid and just used a hand me down from Tess. This is what you guys call a good game, quality/quantity content? Seriously, let's look at what D1 offered when new DLC was released... The vendors, it's a long list. [spoiler]D1. Amanda Holiday running patrol you were able to collect schematics to turn in for ships. Later she gets a full inventory of all ships you could purchase. D2. Amanda Holiday has an empty inventory. Totally useless... D1. Vanguard starting out a fresh character all of them had a full inventory. D2. Vanguard you only have Zavala that has an inventory that hasn't been updated in a year. Cayde-6 is dead and removed from the game. Ikora has an empty inventory that she is nothing but a power engram holder, totally useless. D1. Factions always had a full inventory of emblems, weapons, gear and later updated to having a rotating inventory and they were there 24-7 that they also have (class-specific items.) D2. Factions were removed over a year ago. The dumbest move this company has ever made in this game with Factions. D1. The Gunsmith always had a full inventory D2. The Gunsmith 2 whopping mods handing out hundreds and thousands of duplicates. D1. The speaker has a full inventory and you could trade material D2. He's dead and removed from the game. D1. Every DLC all of the above were updated with a fresh inventory D2. All of the above barely anything updated in 2 years. Making them Totally useless. D1. Petra had somewhat of an inventory that you could collect a ship, shaders, etc. D2. Patra is nothing but a bounty place holder that has been handing out duplicates for 2 years. D1. Eris Morn in TDB had a full inventory of Shaders, emblems, Titan mark, Warlock bond, Hunters cloak and she sold ammo, etc. D2. Eris Morn I can almost guarantee she will only be a useless bounty place holder with Shadow Keep like the rest of the vendors in this entire game. D1. Crucible court master has a full inventory, you can purchase weapons sparrows and material that was updated ever DLC. D2. No crucible court master. D1. Vanguard court master has a full inventory of weapons, sparrows and later updated to purchase material. D2. No vanguard court master. D1. Shaxx had an inventory but was updated every DLC. D2. Shaxx hasn't been updated in a year other than quest like D1 had. D1. Variks has a full inventory of Amor, ships, shaders, ammo, Titan mark... and the material with a weapon that all of that was on a rotating system. All of this and I didn't even add ROI vendors. Most vendors in D1 you could triad with or purchase certain items like ammo that the price varied in material/ glimmer. In D2 the vendors are totally useless or nothing but bounty place holders. D2, the only vendor that is kind of useful when it comes to material that happens to be the only vendor that you can get material from is Spider, the cost for things are too high and the cost for items went up recently.[/spoiler] D1 April update, free https://www.vg247.com/2016/04/19/destinys-april-12-update-everything-you-need-to-know/ Age of triumph, free https://www.polygon.com/2017/3/8/14855688/destiny-age-of-triumph-update-raids-vault-of-glass D2 Annual Passes, Battle passes, and the lovely Tess. What has Bungie offered again in D2?

        • This entire DLC has felt more like a big QoL update and less like an actual expansion. This was Bungie's moment to show that they didn't need Activision to make fantastic content, but all they did was show that they are straight up lazy.

          • I agree, it’s like they are punishing everyone because datto said he completes everything fast and is left with nothing to do. I never heard of drip feeding content until this game. I’d tell datto to find another way to get paid because his girlie ass isn’t buying a million copies of the game.

          • I’d paid for this so I’m gonna play. But if this is the path they continue down I doubt I’ll pay/play any further. Lesson learned.

            • It's a dlc I'm just curious, did you play through the entire thing in 1 sitting? Couldn't pace yourself? No work, school or any other real life responsibilities to do?

              • It's literally everybody's faultbfor buying it STOP BUYING IT! If you want real change the community needs to go to rehab and quit cold turkey. It's the only damn way to change destiny. They will continue ur to do the same shit over and OVER again until you all stop paying for it! Stop buying dlc. Stop buying from eververse! I knew this shit would happen and I'm for one glad I didn't buy the dlc for once!

Your interpretation of the level of content it presents does not change the fact that it is still a game. Besides, you only grinded through the soft cap before complaining. That's like paying for admission to Disney World, riding the parking lot tram and monorail to the park, and complaining that there's nothing to do in all of Disney [quote] I refuse to wait another 3 months before another dlc is released.[/quote] What are you gonna do, go to Seattle and hold up Bungie HQ to demand they release 3 month's worth of content because you're grumpy? You'll wait for the content to be released like everyone else

                  • Play Vex offensive? Or the new Raid? Or any of the multiple exotic quests and ritual weapon quests? Grind out better armor and all the new weapons?

                      • Yeah I have to agree. There’s hardly anything here. The expansion should have been half the price with what we’ve got. They game still requires too much grinding tired, boring 2 year old content. Disappointing.

                      • Bungie lost the help of other development houses, move to steam, and set up cross save while working on this expansion. They were bad at making content before they lost help what did anyone expect now?

                        • 1. It’s only a dlc. 2. Go read your road map. We’re only getting started. 3. Bungie stopped releasing the content all at once because they learned that players like you—-no matter how much they add to the game—will burn through it as fast as possible.... ...and then complain that it wasn’t enough. I swear you kids act more like addicts jonesing for a fix than people enjoying a hobby.

                          • Bungie said it was a rise of iron,, size dlc, which is exactly the size it is. With that info you had an idea or the knowledge to look and get an idea of the size of the dlc. With that info , you had the ability to make an informed decision on purchasing the dlc. BUT ,most of you didnt, and now are crying about it.

                              Honestly if you want so much more, then wait. The solution is super simple. Wait - check out reviews, check out this forum, ask friends who have it, you know, become informed before the purchase. I pre-ordered, knowing I would love it and I do. But dude, if you really are concerned about where you put your hard earned dollars and want something to suit specifically what you want, then wait before purchase. Just understand, that people will have different opinions and experiences to you.
