It’s the gunplay (there was literally nothing else like it when it came out) and the loot/grind even though they have God awful sunset policy because of their tech debt

Yes the gun play is great and the loot/grind for better weapons and armor is what keeps people coming back. But the “appeal” or rather best part is when a new expansion drops and everyone is experiencing it for the first time with the destiny community. Going through the new campaign together with your clan, finding the new exotic weapons, figuring out world puzzles in the Destiny subreddit, grinding the new multiplayer mode/maps in the crucible for legendary weapons, and of course the best part the raid. Which is something I know a lot of people who dropped off never experienced. It’s the best part of the game going through a raid together with your clan during expansion week.

If you’re someone who doesn’t like talking or interacting with people online, or is shy about trying to find a clan for yourself then the honest truth is you won’t have a good time and should look elsewhere.

The only true negative I have to say about the game is that just like any other GAAS, Destiny does not respect your time. You can go a full day of playing and feel like you’ve accomplished nothing because of how ridiculous Bungie is with its heinous XP and materials system. I’ve actually had to stop over the last six months because I wasn’t being productive in my school studies. Not even playing Lightfall atm.

Thanks for all of the info and responses guys. I think I’m going to give it another shot but this time with some friends rather than go at it solo.

Yeah I think all of replies above summarize why Destiny lives and will continue to live in the future.

Right now is kind of hard to do this considering most post on reddit and even youtubers are focusing in tearing apart the expansion :sweat_smile: Heck even steam users are not that liking it (might improve with time I guess):

For context: the only time it was this bad was when Bungie started sunsetting previous expansions. I find it funny and ironic that the Destiny reddit right now looks like if people were talking about the f#$k ups of 343i and Halo at their worst :v:

But yeah I agree with you. Doing that in Forsaken (when I was the most engage with the game) was magical.

Everytime a Call of Duty is on sale i think: that should be the normal price.

Man, CoD2 is over 15 years old, why is it 20 bucks without a sale :rofl:

If this game sells 2 million in a month, it can already be considered a success. This is so hilarious, they are trying to turn an extremely niche game into a banger.
