Tbf only played a match Menagerie and for D2 standards it’s pretty good. Tbh Prison of Elders is still by far my most favourite overall PvE game mode.

Ok so here's the thing. I play for loot and the loot in this game is 99% ass. Took me 45 mins going against 740 enemies (I was 700) and I got a 702 twighlight oath FFS. Did all the power chests, all scatterhorn armour. Played all night n pretty much just raised my power, no new loot, nothing. Menagerie was tedious, took too long, for poor reward, and that was with heavyweight on. Imagine blackout! Everything's timegaited once again, only smgs n snipers can drop this week, and class items, all useless to me. All the new loots reskins too. It's not something I'm likely to play again tbh. I don't raid, so that's it for another season. Gambit is full teams from Japan, crucible is now everyone sniping, n everything else is really old content. The pursuits tab is god damm awful too.

The loot chase in D2 is just plain and needs a complete overhaul. Paragraph 2- Somewhat Agree.After a couple of runs of normal Menagerie I see a couple of issues. Players are afk or unable to complete the objectives (Lanterns, thieving relics etc.) Also I really hope they took a look at modifiers this time because blackout on the hive challenge is going to be god awful (think Reckoning V2). Although you should try the raid as SOTP was pretty decent. Paragraph 3- Irrelevant?? Crucible has always been dragging this game down due to nerfs and balancing issues however D1 Trials was when Destiny was at its peak. Crucible needs to be separated somehow. Gambit is really not as bad as you make out. A good team+ Arbalest and I’m sweet throughout the matches. My only issue with Gambit is facing 3-4 stacks or when 2 2 stacks are placed in the same team.

They need to do like cod, have 2 launchers at start up, 1 for PvE (zombies in cods case) and 1 for PvP. I play stacks in gambit a lot, it's not as bad now people stopped playing, but I'm in the UK n I rarely see even euro guys, it's all Japan , middle east, Russia, causes crazy lag and weird stuff like adds 1 shottng you.

I personally love the new mode. When I first played into it I was confused but once you learn the mechanics it is enjoyable. The loot pool for it is weird in my opinion, I put in the runes for a sniper and I got a crucible sniper.
