It’s fine. 6.5/10. Campaign was fine. Ending was pretty disappointing in all honesty. Like it’s the end of the saga… could the writing team not do better than: “big bad dies and everyone celebrates.” It’s just hollow. The same as every victory since destiny 1 except this sucks so much worse because it’s meant to be the end of a saga. No major deaths, no plot twist. No nothing. Just everyone beats the guy and is happy. And no I’m not gonna count Cayde coming back for 7 missions and then dying. Honestly, kill ghost, reveal who we were in our past life, redeem the witness, hell, do anything mildly interesting for once in your writing careers. Gameplay was actually pretty solid though. The campaign was fun with a few annoying parts. Prismatic is enjoyable and pretty fun to make builds with. The exotic weapons are also all very fun. I haven’t tried the raid, honestly I do like complex mechanics but it’s just too daunting I think for this one. Too much stuff going on for no reason, it’s not hard, it’s just frustrating to coordinate with a team of strangers. Dual destinies is a really cool mission and was more interesting than pretty much the entire campaign when it came to story. Excision is a pretty fun mission even if I don’t like how it ends. Pale heart is how all patrol spaces should be. It feels very much like the plague lands or the dreadnought. Episodes suck. I was thinking we were going back to like black armoury. Instead it’s seasons but with filler to go with the filler that seasons were. It’s drip feeding but even worse than it was before. I didn’t like seasons. I’d rather just go a while without any content then get a nice solid drop then go another while with no content. This whole “stick around because the story is moving forward but extremely slowly” is just draining. It’s the lowest quality most boring content shoved out. Pathfinder… it’s a good system with terrible execution. It’s cool in pale heart but each ritual playlist needs to have its own one. Not some combined one. In conclusion. It’s fine. The gameplay is great and enjoyable but the story just is such a waste. I remember as a kid I wanted to grow up and become a writer for bungie because I loved the universe they had created with destiny, it’s what inspired me to do my degree. But it’s just painful seeing the team being handed all this potential and just dumping it in the ocean. Finally there is episodes that have me scared for the year ahead. The theming seems really cool for episode 2 and 3 but I’m hoping that they don’t just continue with this stupid do public events and bounties stuff.
