So, let's get the obvious out of the way : People are starved and impatient as always. This has never changed.
Now that we have that out of the way, the Destiny 2 Launch is much, MUCH better than the Destiny 1 launch. In every way you can argue. If you say otherwise, you're not a Vanilla Veteran, and shouldn't be given an equal opinion in this thread.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Destiny 2 is perfect, or where it should be. But I am saying that all these posts that assume Destiny 1's Launch was better is absurdly false. Is Post Year 3 Age of Triumph Destiny 1 better than Destiny 2? Maybe, it definitely has miles more content.
I was able to completely finish the entire campaign of Destiny 1 in about 6-8 hours. I explored all content within 4 hours. Within a day the only thing left was Hidden Ghosts. / / I've played Destiny 2 for a month now, grinding about 8-10 hours a day and I'm still finding new things. In retrospect : Earth was smaller than the EDZ. Moon is about the same size as Titan. Venus was smaller than Nessus. Mars is about the same size as Io. - - Vault of Glass RAID was better than Leviathan RAID, but VOG is considered the prize gem of the Destiny Franchise. - - However, the Leviathan has an entire underbelly full of secrets and new pathways that still haven't been mapped. I saw somebody enter the boss chamber from OUTSIDE OF THE SHIP using a Bungie-Created lever method earlier this week. Awesome.

Is Destiny 2 perfect? No.
Is it better than D1 Launch? YES!
If you want your voices to be heard (LOL, IKR?) you need to be constructive. Shouting at the top of your lungs that the game sucks and that D1 (Launch) was better just makes you look dumb. If I told you that I was going to take away D2 and give you back D1, but take away all patches and DLC and only include the VOG Raid, you'd lose your pants.
Keep it real. Be angry. Just don't be stupid.
