“I don't really care about these other "destiny bad but i played 2000 hours" reviews. It's just fun man. not a lot of games like this. always something to do, something to chase. It's like building an engine.”

“Between the giant floating cue-ball Traveler, the endless tug-of-war of Light and Dark, and swinging around on green Strand silly string, Destiny 2’s lore is an acid-reflux hallucination. The characters possess the…”
“good grind but a good 70% of the story is in (paid) dlcs, so if you wanna play the story, prepare to pay big bucks. runs really well though.”

“I have been playing Destiny for 10 years. I am a Warlock, my Warlock is me. But, it's finally over. Thank you for the Final Shape, it was truly some of the most fun I've ever had. Now I finally rest, and watch the sunrise on a grateful universe.”

I hope Destiny finds it's way back again, by giving new players a way to actually join in and feel apart of the journey. In the next…”
— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“It’s hard to trust a game that removes paid expansions. Knowing that content I bought can disappear makes me hesitant to invest more money or time. Even if the gameplay is solid, the lack of permanence hurts the overall experience”
