Not even a full day after Rise of Iron launched, I posted a thread about [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/213338532?sort=0&page=0]Early Reviews for Rise of Iron.[/url]
Normally, the "professional" reviewers and YouTube/Twitch Streamers give a game developer about two weeks or a month of glowing "this developer can do no wrong!!!" reviews before the "new DLC shine" wears off and the flaws start getting reported on. Not so with RoI. Not even a full day had passed and reviewers were already reporting on the flaws and mismanagement about this DLC.
Well, now we're almost a full week into Rise of Iron, and the reviews aren't getting any better.
Here's a well written review from Steven Strom at Ars Technica about his [url=http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2016/09/destiny-rise-of-iron-impressions-the-thin-road-to-destiny-2/]Rise of Iron Impressions and the thin road to Destiny 2.[/url]
It's most definitely [u]not[/u] a glowing endorsement.
But, he does detail the issue many people are having with not only Rise of Iron, but most all of Destiny's DLC's as they have launched, the constant re-skins, small content, but Bungie charging a premium price for sub-par amounts of content.
Personally, I couldn't have described this situation better, nor can I find better words than his in his worry about Destiny 2 with the way Destiny has been mismanaged so far.
But I would like to hear the Community's thoughts on this. So please, discuss.
