It’s funny the coil 2.0

Finally someone talks about the reskins, I love the new onslaught different enemies and different maps is all I wanted.

I find it interesting that in years past, cookie baking during the dawning involved figuring out the right ingredients. Bungie has already had us do "discovery" when it comes to potions and tonics, but now they just give it to you automatically. Same for the Menagerie rune combos, you mixed runes together to see what youd get. The game feels like theres very little, if any, mystery and discovery anymore, even if you avoid social media and youtube. The game always directs you to exactly what you need to do and where to go, and the only mystery things in the game are little inconsequential triumphs.

YES

Yes this game is dead bro for real this time

Your game isnt ever going to get a new expansion. You can quit.

Bugs, mostly boring content, dungeon keys , drama behind studio, and of Chris vintage f@&# cars!

Legend forsaken and red war!

As a PoE obsessed long-term destiny player, I've been enjoying this season, and I've mostly been using it as an excuse to play ToE and catch up on old quests I never completed.

Tonics are terrible

Vote with your wallet and playtime you have all the power. Dont support Jewish Woke Marxists Communist Indoctrination.

Really disappointed with there being no D1 weapons when there's so many and its implied that this is THE RETURN OF the prison of elders

Season of the haunted was fire…literally

It’s so odd to me people are making these videos months later when it’s apparent from the trailer it would be shit. Stop skimping for these terrible devs….its not all Pete parsons fault lol

My vague thoughts on Destiny - most of which (the middle bit) I shared on another Destiny video and one I was going to say on a crafting video - After what I consider a lot of effort I enabled crafting on some characters but, as I remember it, I've never been able to craft a weapon with the stats I've wanted, also, as I remember it, most of the weapons or traits were greyed out. I struggle to find end game content to play, I've gone into raids solo and never worked out what the hell I'm supposed to do, I've watched guides and forgotten everything, I recently went into a multiplayer version of a Final Shape campaign mission where it didn't match make me with anyone and it took me about 30 minutes to work out there was a mechanic which meant I would die on a timer because I was supposed to have a teammate to pass it off to, at this point I think the only thing Bungie could do is add a feature that allows me to solve or skip the part I'm stuck on, I don't want to have to talk to strangers, platform much or puzzle solve if I might never work out how to solve it and be stuck there forever, just let me try all the unique encounters and weapons I want to on my terms, as I see it, it's part of the deal as to why I'm the one giving you money and it's not you giving me money. All I would add to this comment is that when last season or whenever Destiny did an event with just some raid boss encounters in a row I went in blind and failed at the first boss every time, I guess some people enjoyed this and some thought they were playing with idiots but I think it would have been better if I could have tried each encounter and see if I could do it or wanted to look up how to do it.

I haven’t even willed myself to get on to do the dungeon. I still haven’t even done dual destiny.

Kinda miss the weekly story beats. Just doing it all in one day kinda takes the joy out of it.

Same here man this is the first season pass I haven’t purchased since the Shadowkeep era

We ain't gonna get a game mode like that. They would have to try to do something. That's already asking to much. Mabey in like 6 months to a year

Calling season of the haunted garbage is a wild take in my book

I've been playing a lot of other games because bungie now demands significantly less time of me. Still reached the seasonal rank cap for Act 2 with maybe 30 eververse drops extra. My only issue is loot, not because it isn't good, because it doesn't look cool to me. I like the activities. Tonics, while i get the complaints, is better than a 3×7 grid. I like it when a season has some level of flavor to it, even if that flavor can be tedious. Otherwise, the content is too easy and boring to understand. Echos was very boring with terrible pacing, which didn't help the natural player drop off, which bungie has surprisingly nailed on the head in their recent article. They said destiny needs to find a new evil to chase post the witnesses' defeat. Otherwise, what are we fighting for? That's probably the biggest issue this season faces. Lore is good. The story isn't amazing, but far from the worst we've had in destiny. Its that players dont have anything to look forwards to after we deal with fikural, because we haven't been told that yet. Episodes are just content to fill a gap for the sake of letting people know the game still exists while they try a second attempt at reengaging players in a new saga.

I'm still playing about the same amount as last season but I'm not a fan of prison/contest of elders at all. Idk why, just not that fun imo. I'd prefer doing gm's or raids. Onslaught salvation is fine, just more onslaught, though. Vampire hunts or something would've been cool. Seasonal content needs a rework, it just feels half-assed most of the time.

We need some form of sunsetting. Maybe not like it was but some form of it would give freshness to the game and reason to grind. Yes people complained but they still played. Now hardly anyone is playing. Edit: the reason Eramis is still a thing is because StRoNg WoMaN

I have completely lost the story thread. I have no idea what we’re doing or why we’re doing it and I couldn’t care less about any of the weapons. This is by far the most irrelevant content yet.

What's the armor set on your titan?

Can't believe they're still reskinning weapons, this is why I quit the game, just unparalleled levels of laziness.

Hope lightbarrier hive will use darkness supers like stasis and strand. Or I dnk this maybe a bit crazy but play as them.

This episode/season has been the most mixed I have ever been with D2. On one hand the constant bugs and activities have been lackluster or actively frustrating (I like onslaught a lot but I played it a lot during into the light and don’t feel compelled to do it again, and contest of elders is just an easier version of the coil), but the hikes I could create from the new weapons have been some of the most fun I’ve had in D2 PVE in a long time which I do have to commend Bungo for to some extent.

Echos and revenant are the slop dlc1-2 of current year destiny

Generally agree with your take, but potions are a crap system. 1. The timer notification is buggy and 2. Micromanaging taking a potion is annoying AF. It would be better if I could auto potion as long as I have inventory of the same potion

Plus we paid for all this content we should have access to it

Nerfs and buffs on everything is annoying just buff everything back when d2 was actually fun 5 years ago

They need to put new weapon archetypes into the game to make them interesting. When most people have near equivalent weapons that they can use in the place of the seasonal ones, there are very few reasons to grind for the seasonal weapons other than just to have them for "just-in-case" purposes especially with vault space being at such a premium. Jolting Feedback is a pretty good new perk, but is it that good to replace our existing arsenal? I don't think so. The number of bugs is really off putting. I'm really tired of seeing "New subclass unlocked!" pop up for 30 seconds every time I log into the game since TFS launched and it covers the entire bottom half my screen. Eva is STILL trying to give the Solstice quest and this is on top of all of the Dawning bugs. Quality checking their game should be by default, not weeks/months/years(!?) after the community catches them with their pants down... repeatedly, unless it impacts their revenue stream like them accidentally giving away the event card earlier, that gets fixed immediately.

Your depth of knowledge of both the way this game works, as well as the story is honestly so refreshing. Im too used to vapid videos best played in the background. Your channel deserves so much more attention. ALSO BASED GLAIVE ENJOYER? 🤝

I would usually be glued to pvp in between content and expansions but now I just hop on and don’t even care to play cause the pvp they just let die and without the endgame pvp to play what do I want to grind for.

I stopped caring man ngl. Game has disrespected my time for years

Feels like it. I played Echoes a lot more, idk why ig I just had more to do or enjoyed it more

Ahhh... where to begin? I expected a little drop after the final shape. Great cap to the 10 year saga. Maybe it's because I'm a freaking nerd or maybe it's because destiny has such rich lore but the first echo story let me down hard. So much there to put into the game and damn. Don't get me wrong because they cleaned up loose ends(Saint time travel)and Failsafe was amazing. Even the msund12 whole thing with her wife was great. I did like the gun. That ending though...wtf. she melts into radiolaria into the planet?!?! That's it? You didn't bring back vex from another timeline to fight with you? So many questions. Ok this season we had the trailers looking vampirish. We see worm gods? Nezerec tea payoff maybe? Fikrul? Kell of Kells. Eidomus Prime(Transformers reference - she gets the echo and becomes the giant kell leader. Eramis sacs herself to become a guardian after mortally wounding Mithzerec and Mithrax sees Eido rise. He can die at peace with Eramis as a guardian and Eido as the new kell of Kells? Heresy has Akka yes the ship get the echo. Savathun still at it trying to determine the source macguffin and Nokris rezs the body of Oryx but twist Xivu is in the body trying to get Oryxs worm back or use Ahsa. I need some level of clean up for both Eliksni and Hive.

THANK YOU!! Everything you said in this video is exactly what I thought about this season and Bungie as a whole, seriously how is this so called supposed AAA studio still releasing the same weapon models, if Bungie were to release at least one new weapon variant every season that for sure would draw the players attention.

this game has gone to shit

11:50 Allison is the absolute terrible writer. She literally can't write a male character that isn't broken, gay or weak. The fact that she regressed zavala's character farther than season of the haunted when he was needed the most in the final shape really left a bad taste in my mouth. And her writing tells you that she thinks MCU humor is absolutely hilarious. The only character that had half decent dialogue with Cayde and only when he wasn't trying to be funny. That's a huge L take her writing is dog. You have centuries Old space warriors sounding like West Coast liberal white girls.

Yeah not having the shiny drops killed the new onslaught for me. And yeah the weapons are just so boring. And that exotic is trash. Wow it makes ammo wow who gives a f.

YES

boring gameplay loops

This is a really good review, lots of good points. I hope someone at bungie sees this and makes changes

This season has made me realize how little I care about new legendary weapons in general. I have no interest in farming any of these weapons because they are all functionally the same as most existing weapons of the same archetype, just with different perks. The new archetypes are cool, but its really only cool the first time. I only farmed these weapons out before because of the patterns. Now I just couldnt care less about playing right now
