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.

1 ReplyMy biggest gripes are 3 more years of QoL updates/development, the lack of a challenge, and the raid gear being pointless (purely cosmetic). I wasn't expecting D1 Y3 content, but I was expecting the return of most, if not all, of the QoL changes to be improved upon or at least in the game. Out of the 10 Guardians (all close friends who I shared D1 Y1 and Y2 with) in my Clan, only 2 of us still play... on reset. Just saying... yea we knew our characters were resetting, but to go through 3 more years of the same updates, development, etc.?
