I had fun at the beginning of the journey. Then I don't know what happened. The final nail in the coffin for me was the absence of prestige raid rewards.
This time around I had the belief that D2 would pick up where year 3 left off. Not a few steps behind vanilla. I am Jack's broken dream.
How are you guys finding the game at this point? How are you spending your time when online? Or are you taking a break till the expansion?
Edit: Trending. I would like to thank you all for your contributions. It isn't satisfying for me that this post has so many people in agreement. I respect that the developers put in long hours and massive amounts of energy to craft Destiny 2. I understand that the product at launch is a foundation that will be built on in time. However, when you review the constructive feedback and the similar ideas from a variety of Guardians. It is genuinely surprising that Bungie didn't anticipate these issues would eventuate. Sadly this culminates in a validation of the title. At this point in time "D2 is Disappointing".

Like the Fight Club reference. But i managed my expectation after being a day one D1 pre-order victim. And the game is what i expected. Is there room to improve of course. but this is why this time i didnt get the year long pass. They marketed it the same, they priced it the same, and the vanilla didnt live up to everyones expectations. but im hopeful. i mean the game did make some improvements on D1 vanilla. Story although not extensive is better. There is more content. sure not all of it is rewarding in terms of loot, but the content is there even if the incentive is not. Loot is lacking in nearly all aspects of the game. Strikes, Adventures, Challenges, Public Events, Prestige modes, nightfall, Raid. The loot system isn't able to make all of these experiences rewarding and replayable. Even the exotics are a bit underwhelming or stiuational for my taste. but it was likely done to balance PvP. and least you have some earned and some RNG. I think the factions loot and I.B. loot is better in this regard. but likely done to keep interest in the seasonal events or encourage farming during them.
