Bungie became massively monetization focuses. A lot of people assumed once they go independent and out of the grubby hands of Actvision, Destiny will reach it's full potential. Instead the game (while not dying), probably has one of the worst monetizations and storylines ever. Where you bought the main game, but the story is told in the season pass. Where 90% of the content got gutted before Destiny 1's release, and by the looks of it, all Bungie has been doing is piecing it together since that era after Joseph Staten got kicked out of the company. The shooting is top tier, but Destiny 2 pretty much proved why sometimes publishers need to kick the asses of certain developer teams and reign them in. It pretty much proved Bungie worked on the same copeium as Bioware in terms : All we need is some Bioware magic to make it work. Bungie's entire dev pipeline was horrible under Destiny 1.
D2 ? Is or was kinda better but most of the expansions are reskinned enemies, with occassional special bosses - and special enemies. They also managed to piss away all their goodwill with Witch Queen, after the latest expansion feeling like cut in the middle so Final Shape can be sold.
Yeah the raids are top tier but holy shit the IP is squandered ,and a lot of Destiny youtubers are now expecting a Titanfall to Apex Legends type of Exodus, where Marathon gets the main focus, and Destiny as a franchise gets shuttered.
