Destiny 2 right now is the most fun it has been in a while.

At least for me, that is. In December of 2017 I was so frustrated I stopped playing D2 for about two years. Then I came back for New Light and had a great time, but I didn't buy shadow keep and when they deleted everything it prompted another break from the game. I was skeptical about beyond light and didn't get it until that fateful TWAB post where bungie said they were removing sunsetting and making a ton of other quality of life changes to D2. That day I immediately redownloaded the game and hopped into Season of the Chosen and Beyond Light for the first time, and since then I've been having a blast. The Deep Stone Crypt is great, the new Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit rewards are great, the seasonal story is super cool too. I'm genuinely enjoying the grind just like I did back in Rise of Iron, I have almost unlocked the Splintered title which has been an enjoyable journey. I've seen a lot of negative energy on the forums recently, (which is nothing new lol) which surprises me since the state of the game has vastly improved since I left. Yes, stasis has broken PvP, but when has PvP not been broken? It has always been like this since D1. There will always be some new weapon or subclass that is super strong, but it always eventually gets replaced with some new op meta. And I mean, cheaters in Trials? Thats like complaining that the sky is still blue lol. I think bungie is doing a great job all things considered and am proud of them for being able to make good quality content on their own. I really think it is hilarious how upset people are getting over nerfs, I mean, now that sunsetting is gone what do you expect bungie to do? Anyway thats my two cents honestly if anyone from Bungie sees this outstanding work you brought back a player who thought he would never return, now all you have to do is bring back SRL! >:D [spoiler]you guys knew I had to sneak an SRL reference in there lol[/spoiler]

      I enjoyed last season. I thought this season was boring by week 2. I hate the battlegrounds. After the first week I played just enough of them to do seasonal challenges and complete the seal for the season. The battlegrounds were unrewarding and unimaginative. The problem is if you do 9 you still only get 3 powerful rewards. Last season you could do 5 wrathborn hunts and get a pinnacle. Once you hit the hard cap the battleground rewards are irrelevant.

    • I think people make the mistake of playing only destiny and nothing else. Having other games and not just playing destiny makes it a better game and even taking a break and coming back. It’s actually a really great game that does have consistent improvements, you just have to avoid burning yourself out.

      • When people stop looking at the game through the eyes of burnout and resentment, it’s easy to see that the pve side of the game is in a good place right now. The game still needs more loot, and an overhaul of its loot and progression systems, as well as a buff to light subclasses to be a perfect game.... ...but there are no perfect games.... This season is probably one of Bungie’s best, and shows the game is headed in a good direction. Sunsetting is gone for now, but it isn’t gone forever. The problems it was trying to solve aren’t going anywhere and what they are doing now isn’t sustainable (which is why sunsetting was necessary to begin with).

        • I quit playing when Shadowkeep released and I didn't buy it. Once I had the Xbox Series X and D2 was upgraded I started playing again. The FOV slider and 60 fps 4k makes the game a lot smoother. I have GP so playing SK and BL for free was good. I thought this season was worth the $9. Now with sunsetting gone I'll likely buy next season too and keep playing.

        • I haven't enjoyed myself since Beyond Light first dropped. I'm just so burnt out from constantly being demanded to play the playlist activities for everything in the game.

          • Pve wise he games in a prett fantastic place absolutely. Pvp wise I’d argue is never been worse. It’s basically been left off to the side for a really long time and then we get CC added to the game in the largest dose of “wow... just wow” I’ve ever seen in a shooter and it feels like people’s frustration has only grown, stasis is never fun to play against and it’s forced the game to be played differently from how it has been for the previous 6 years. People wanted innovative new ways to play pvp not a new pvp to play
