So, im fairly new to the game, and bought the witch queen, did the campagin and most of the missions on the evidence board, then i bought the beyond light a week ago , first, i anjoyed the campagin much more then the witch queen, it has much more story into it even if its shorter. there are actuall good exotics to get, and lots of ecotics mission to fo after the campagin, and dont forget the whole new subclass who hard counters pretty much everything.
So despite pretty much any discord i got into, i've enjoyed beyond light much more then the witch queen, and i dont understand the hype about the witch queen, can somome explain?

2 Replies1. Witch Queen resolved storylines going all the way back to the beginning of the franchise. So this was a big deal to veteran players. Harder to appreciate for newer players, understandably. 2. Beyond Light gets a bad rap because this community tends to judge content based on how they feel about what is going on in the wider game. A lot of things people were upset about happened in wider game at that time: a. Bungie sunset all the weapons from the first two years of D2, and got rid of the very popular, but absurdly overpowered Pinnacle weapons. This has to be done to get three years of power creep under control. b. The Destiny Content Vault was created. This game was designed to be used for three years and then abandoned for a Destiny 3 via Bungie’s contract with Activision. When Bungie bought their way out of that contract they wanted to keep supporting D2. But the game had gotten so large that it was running poorly on ps4 and XB1. So Bungie had to remove old content that basically no one was playing, to make room for new content while still being able to run on these old machines. If they hadn’t done this D2 would have become like Cyberpunk 2077. A game that runs on pc and current Gen consoles, but was unplayable on ps4 and XB1. Despite this necessity, this made a lot of players mad. Especially pvp players who don’t want to engage the rpg aspects of the game and had grown used to using Menagerie as a directed farm for whatever was currently meta in Crucible.
