I believed it’s September 22nd that Forsaken and Shadowkeep will go live on game pass. Like I said you’ll still have to buy the season pass but that’s only $10 every 3-4 months. For the amount of content you’ll be getting, that’s honestly an insane deal when you already own the game pass.
I’d honestly try getting back into it now. People on here will complain like crazy but when you haven’t played in over a year, you’re almost playing a different game than the rest of us. We have all the exotics found, quest completed, and the god rolls we want. You’ve still got all that to find.
Imo that part of the game is a lot more fun than the end game of perfect stat chasing and material farming.
