I was debating as to whether to post this or not but I think this is a great time for us to be honest as a community and let Bungie know how we truly feel about not just Destiny 2, but the franchise as a whole. I will come and and say it: Destiny is the most disappointing franchise I have ever come across in my years of gaming. I know this is a heavy statement to read, but it is a sentiment that I have been harboring inside me since the launch of Destiny 1. I was so hyped for this series and to hear the promises of having adventures all throughout the stars fighting evil and defending good. I think that this is a sentiment most of us have shared as children, but to hear that a game would allow for us to (somewhat) live out that dream in reality was something that really captivated me like no other video game has in my life. The way that Bungie made it sound was that Destiny was more of a "life experience" than just a game. Then came the release of D1 and I was sorely let down by how pedestrian it all felt, and while, yes, major improvements were made to the gameplay, I still don't think that Destiny was where it should be as a game. I have gone from passion to just intense hopelessness whenever I see or hear about Destiny on social media because most of the time the news behind the franchise is just bad. It reminds me too much of what Destiny could have been. Many are saying that Bungie needs to pull off a "Hail Mary" today, but the reality is that that moment was during the D2 reveal, and frankly, they blew it. But I still had hope. And then Destiny 2 came out and my worse fears came true. Now with the release of the Curse of Osiris DLC, I haven't had even the slightest of interest with it. I barely know what it is about and the little that I do hear or read about just sounds disappointing and underwhelming. Reminds me of back in the D1 DLC days again, and I don't know, but I just don't think that I can give Destiny as a series another chance. As hard as this is for me to say, Bungie, you lost me not only as a Destiny fan but also as a fan of your company. You guys used to be great. I grew up with the Halo games and I have fond memories of the experiences found in that series. Destiny should have been that, but magnified tenfold. What I see here is not just a step back for a series, but also a step back for a once beloved developer. What is frustrating is that we as a community know that you guys are capable of more than what you are putting out and this is the reason why so many of us are disappointed and angry with the state of this series. I hope that my heavy post isn't interpreted as a "hate" post, but rather a post from a once passionate fan whose flame has been extinguished by your lack of clarity, honesty, and transparency to your community. So, Bungie, I really do hope that you guys can one day reclaim your throne as one of the top-tier developers in this industry. I really feel burned out and don't really feel like anything that is announced today will bring me back to the joy I once had with this series. And for the fans that continue to still have hope in Bungie, I really hope that this game is able to live up to your expectations (the way it should). Good luck.
