Renegades has as much content as some past seasons did.
So after playing through Renegades, I can’t shake the feeling that what we got here is basically the size of an old season, just with a different price tag.
Think about it, short campaign, one seasonal style activity, an exotic mission, new weapons, seasonal grind structure.
All of this is about what we used to get for $10 in a season, not $40 for a full expansion. In the past, this kind of content drop would’ve slotted right in with Season of the Wish, Heresy, etc. The only major difference now is the price and the label “expansion.”
I’m not saying it’s bad content, the campaign was fun, the exotic mission is solid, and the weapons are cool. But the amount just doesn’t feel like an expansion. It feels like we bought a large season and it’s being stretched to last a year.
I want to support Bungie, I want Destiny to thrive, but value matters. If this is the future model, then expansions need more meat, or the price needs to match the content.
Would love to hear how others feel… am I alone in this?

I pre-ordered "Destiny 2: Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition" for 100 €. I always did that with Destiny 2. And I gladly pay for quality (fundamentally), but this DLC is steeply overpriced. There's too much recycled content, like armor, environments, and weapons, just with adaptations, different colors, and variations. Bungie operates out of a content pool. With developments reaching back to the original Destiny. And I tolerated this since the beginning of Destiny 2. But now it's enough, because they simply can't hold it together anymore. What offends me is that they didn't really develop anything new. Bungie just made it tougher and more inaccessible. They removed bounties from 4 planetary vendors. 4 from 10. The freedom of choice with "Weekly Challenges" is gone. They have a limited time frame now. And the "Portal" is above everything. It's prioritized. These days, a lot in Destiny 2 reminds me more of a mini red tape instead of an enjoyable video game. That's my last DLC. For sure. Edit: Text addition
