PSA to everyone that has never played Destiny 2.
tldr; Epic is giving away Destiny 2: Legacy Collection. You'll have to give Bungie whole bunch more money if you really want to play. Don't give Bungie your hard earned money because Destiny 2 is now pay to win and they'll always try to screw you. Don't get sucked into this game and give this horrible company your money.
According to the article, Epic is giving away Destiny 2: Legacy Collection which contains The Witch Queen, Beyond Light, and Shadowkeep. If you've never played Destiny 2 and think this seems great because now you can start playing Destiny 2 for the first time. This isn't so. You'll still need to spend bunch of more money if you want access to seasonal content and they're really not an optional. Just when you thought you're done, you'll then have to buy the Dungeon content which isn't part of season pass. Oh by the way you can't just buy season pass with money. You have to purchase their premium currency and then buy season pass with that currency which means you'll always have a left over premium currency. This is definitely scammy and it's by design.
Destiny 2 is dystopian microtransaction hellscape. They've been adding layers of microtransactions for years and this is the result. If you want to see how bad it has gotten watch this video by Aztecross.

Warframe is a free alternative to destiny , its in steam and runs on linux. For those looking for that type of game. There is a warframe community on lemmy too.
I used to like warframe a lot, then they sold out to tencent.
Bungie was given 1.2 BILLION to retain talent. They decided to fire 100 people going back to the Halo days.
That right there ended any money I'll ever give to Bungie.
i bought that game full price. 60 dollars
still better use of my money than black ops 4 was
I was thinking about playing destiny 2 for a while until I got this video recommended to me randomly. After watching it, all I can say is the developers have to pay me more than I earn on my job for me to even consider playing it.
I mean basically everything in the game is optional, you just miss out on some story tidbits here and there. I have never bought seasons, dungeons or anything like that and I still have 400+ hours in the game. If you want to 100% everything, yes, you need to buy a lot of stuff, but you can still have tons of fun with just the expansions.
