Destiny has to at least be an honorable mention. Not trying to be a Bungie apologist, but the amount of content people get for $100/year is pretty outstanding, and the community acts like all they get is a ten hour campaign or something.
I'm in agreement with you, however I'm going to also add that the creep to a "pay-to-win" game has pretty much been crossed. Not to forget that Bungie decided to drip feed expansion content laced throughout seasonal content this year...that has not been received well.
Destiny players are a salty bunch, but I have to say the current level of furor towards Bungie is pretty legitimate right now. They do overreact; I just feel that this in this current state of the game there is justification behind it.
Regardless, "I hate Destiny; I play every day."
@Madison_rogue @Milk_SDF_Possum @brandon what’s pay to win right now? I’ve been playing a long time, and I do buy the seasonal content through the deluxe version or whatever, but I don’t feel like I’m being given an advantage. I don’t buy anything with Silver - is there anything I’m missing out on?
You can now buy to max out your seasonal level at the beginning of the season for $100.00, so you can immediately gain the XP boosts and other stat bonuses. It costs 100 silver per level, and it's available day one of the season, not halfway through or at the beginning of the seasonal content drought as it has been in the past.
The content isn't good. There hasn't been anything with interesting level design or enemies since maybe the taken king.
I'd rather still be playing D1 strikes than anything they have now. But we don't have that option because they want to force you onto their treadmill.
As someone who played hundreds and thousands of hours of Destiny, it still weirds me out to hear people call "Destiny 2" Destiny. They are very different games.
Destiny 2 is predatorily-monetized garbage. Destiny (the game it was at the time of its untimely murder by money-grubbing assholes, not the game at launch) is one of the best games I've ever played.
