Destiny 2 launched exactly six months ago today, though at times it feels more like six years. A bunch has changed since September, and the game has gone through some dramatic highs and lows. (Mostly lows.)
Destiny 2's meta is ever-shifting, and a recent Exotic went from overlooked to must-have very fast.
Among the various things revealed in Destiny 2: Into the Light, I don't think any of them beat the speculation Pantheon received. The unexpected raid boss - IS
Whether it's entering a zen state during DPS or the rush of dopamine on its completion, Destiny 2's Raids excels in multiplayer teamwork.
The raids are one of the reasons I quit Destiny. You stand in a circle and shoot at a triangle on a wall, have to restart a half dozen times, and then hope the random reward blesses you. Then you realize you aren’t’ having fun but instead are doing a lot of work for nothing. Back when Destiny was at its peak population, trophy data showed that less than 5% of players ran the raid.
I actually thought the game had some promise to start with. Nope.
The games lack of random rolls kills my desire to grind. Really sucks the state this games in and with how the games structured, idk if they can bring it back like they did with taken king. I still play the events but with the slight hope the game can turn around. It’s still the most enjoyably fun shooter mechanics wise, just a shame everything’s being squandered.
May will be the first major content release from the Live team. I am excited about it. In the meantime plenty of other games to play.
The changes Bungie have been making thus far are small, but needed. The dev road map they released shows a good start to the changes they are going to make, but they still need to do a lot more!
