[IGN] Destiny 2: The Final Shape Review (9/10)
Destiny 2’s finale delivers on much of what this series has promised for a decade.
It's wild to me how Destiny can deliver so little and still get reception like this.
I'm pretty biased as a destiny fan. But not sure what you mean. Their dlc constantly has a ton to do. Story varies depending on the expansion. But for the most part people aren't complaining about how much you get in it.
I guess you're new? Once they deleted the content I paid for, I dropped it like a hot potato and never went back. Don't care if they brought it back or not, the fact that they pulled that at all is enough to lose everything from me.
Honestly the idea of Destiny 1 was amazing. Then it came out and Destiny 1 was only okay. It was obviously chopped to pieces that were later sold back as DLC, and honestly the only good one was Taken King.
Then Destiny 2 came out and had a more cohesive, if mostly forgettable story line, but after finishing it ("The Red War" story) the game quickly fell apart. Red War already had some questionable choices, like killing The Speaker offscreen, but I thought the mission aboard the World Ender or whatever, the part where you had to run and stay in the shadows because it was close to Sol was pretty cool. But then they killed the Awoken Queen for no reason, we killed her brother, and they killed off fan favorite Cayde-6 instead of killing someone nobody cared about like Ikora. And I guess the guy we killed just decided to not die? And then the Queen somehow returned like Palpatine? Whatever. Aside from Red War and Forsaken I didn't care about the story of Destiny 2, and it didn't really matter.
Can you even go to Titan anymore? Actually, I don't care.
Bungie was a great company, but the company it is now is not the same, mostly because many of its original members are gone. And because of that, I expect Marathon (honestly kind of a disgrace to the original to even call it that) to fail miserably and it absolutely deserves to.
For reference, I bought D1 and all its expansions as they were released, not as a bundle. And I bought D2 and its expansions as they released and not as a bundle until they made D2 free to play. Then the only expansion I got was Shadowkeep, and I feel like that was wasted potential. I really liked the designs of the Hive, but the story surrounding them sucked.
