Indeed. The game is not what it used to be at all and as other have said.. This isn't three years ago.. Now there are other good games out there. I have been re-grinding Diablo 3 and Warframe and having more fun than I have with Destiny. Literally logged on just to buy the new OP gun from Xur and hopped off this weekend. Maybe did a public event or two --- but less than 30 minutes. This coming from a Day 1 D1 player who played for hours every weekend.... Now I could honestly care less about the game until Bungie changes. I bought the season pass like an idiot; so you guys can expect to see when the next 4 hour of content DLC comes out in a few months.
And honestly, if you like the idea of doing things in space and the grind for gear and items than yeah -- download Warframe. It takes a bit to get into but at least it is all free.

I'm the same as you. Had days and days of time in D1. Now I don't even play D2. Logged in just to get the gun fron Xur and logged off. I just play Warframe every day. That's a game going in the right direction.
And strikes and crucible and chest farming.titanmaster_race said:

It's not as bad as the start of the sword quest in D1 but it takes a bit to do some of the guns.
What a lazy endgame for the DLC. Wow.
I can't decide if I'm angry or sad. Maybe both.
Bungie really screwed the pooch with D2 so far. How can you not have the D1 live team interacting regularly with the D2 dev team during development? There are some big management issues inside of Bungie.

so Prometheus lens is getting a massive nerf today. They posted yesterday that until they have time to do proper QA (um, why wasn't QA done before release!?!?) they are going to severely neuter it and make it worthless. They promise to buff it in Jan sometime

I'm convinced a lot of this had to do with the partnering of Activision. The end game and quite frankly the eververse and token system don't feel bungie to me at all.
That said, I've heard rumors that the dev team and the live team don't talk. Which would explain why we have so much of a difference in D1 to D2.
The fact that I can't get a raid ship, a raid sparrow, or a raid gear that does things for the raid seems a very silly.
In fact, I thought I was okay with the whole bright engram thing until the XP issue. I feel stupid for saying as long as I'm able to get it for free by playing the game and get a lot of XP for it I'm fine.
I expect things to be "stuck" until the big year 2 update like TTK expansion. The fact that I can't go back and play missions except for the 3 that Ikora has is silly.
Did you see they also took the Trophy away from Prestige NFs and now it only applies to Prestige Raids? WEEEE

Haven't touched the game since October, is the DLC even worth it right now?

I wouldn't pay for it if you don't have it already.

Yeah honestly so far it's about a 10 dollar dlc
https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46547
The Dawning begins on Tuesday, December 19.
The Dawning ends on Tuesday, January 9.
So...Snowball fights, Mayhem, The ability to purchase every Dawning Eververse item for Bright Dust, and mini quests/grind for rewards
Of course all the special items from the dawning are going to be put in the Eververse, and not an actual vendor

Man, it is getting more and more disappointing how much of the game is being put in Tess Eververse's hands.
Like really, really disappointing.

Thankfully I don't.
What a sad fall for a game I happily sank my entire life into in D1.
You aren't kidding. Don't get me wrong. I love the destiny universe and still hop on a quite a bit, but this game just isn't as robust as D1. What it did right in the story doesn't make up for the end game.
You can remove me from the clan. I uninstalled it.
I did reinstall warframea game I barely touched when I first got the PS4at the suggestion of people here.

One thing I am very pleased to see.
(Next week, for free, on Bungie.net)
Official Destiny Web Comic
An Osiris and Ikora Origin Story
Osiris was once the champion of the Last City. Vanguard Commander. Seeker of secrets and discoverer of wonders. And then everything changed. How did Osiris go from hero to traitor?
I, like many others, have been really disappointed with how they've abandoned the lore in-game. This is clearly their answer to the "oh crap" moment they had after seeing the response to the DLC, but I really hope they take this moment to push for external content. Obviously an official Book of Sorrows or Grimoire collections would be great but I'd also love to see both canon and fan-fiction novels. Hopefully, they churn these out regularly (once a month or so depending on length), but no word if this is a one and done deal.

The most succinct thing I can say about Destiny 2?
It has no soul.
I've been playing in short time increments lately, but not long enough to change my profile to show that I'm online. I start playing and within 20 minutes I'm ready to turn it off. That being said, I'll probably grind some heroic strikes this weekend for the forge materials and will raid if anyone is interested. Also I still need to complete the arms dealer part of the quest for the Legend of whatever shotgun and of course the stupid rat king timed challenge.
I need the raid shotgun as well
I need to do that quest too. Arms dealer one
This. Sadly. While we can talk about end game, progression, gear...yada yada...its comes down to this.titanmaster_race said:littlebrotherag said:

Warframe has a STEEP learning curve. But once you get on top of it, its fantastic.
Today's winner for the General Board Burrito Lottery is:

Xur's actually in the hanger if you can't find him. He's got the fated engram and 3 of coin this week as well.
The Fated Engram is one exotic you don't have but it's only one per ACCOUNT so pull it with a character your looking for gear

So I'm excited about this, but I'm still a bit burned by bungie right now. I mean you have all of this right cool lore, and no substance to back it up with in game. Not only that, I'm counting down the days until Anthem comes out now. Bungie needs competition for this game to be relevant again.FightinTexasAg15 said:

Also, why the heck can't I look at my guardian on bungie.net anymore?
I really miss being able to just randomly check out my guardian on the app. Why, why was that something you needed to remove. That has been the theme of Destiny 2. "Why?" and "Why is this not in the game anymore"
I was excited for Anthem until I realized it was EA making it, and it's probably going to be a giant microtransaction fest

I believe EA bought out Bioware if I remember right
So you realize Anthem will likely be more of the same?
Instead of Activision its EA. Bungie/Bioware producing content and Activision/EA milking it for money.
