As the title suggests, I was looking for your opinion on Destiny 2. If you weren't following, the game looks to be in trouble, with a very sharp drop in player interest. Then they threw gas on the fire by introducing more micro-transactions (which they then pulled). The latest news says the game is starting to get dropped in the streaming communities. Can Bungie save this one?
I was a big fan of the original, despite its flaws. Destiny 2 isn't all bad. The game is beautiful, and the mechanics are still good, but the game lacks in reward. I don't care for the changes to the weapon categories, and there doesn't feel like there's enough content to keep grinding. It was way too easy to max out the character abilities. The first expansion was a bit of a miss, too. Mercury looks cool, but it's not much for exploring (infinite forest). The original Destiny also started out of the gate a little poorly, and the expansion packs really helped bring the game around, but the core of the old game was a good base to build on.
So I dunno. I've already paid for the extra content, so they have me for that long. I wonder how many others are thinking the same thing. Can Bungie salvage this game beyond that? I made a poll if you care to vote!
