  • Today's video is a little different. If you've stopped playing or altogether Quit Destiny 2 over the past few years? I'm tellin you man, you should at the very LEAST consider coming back to Destiny 2 for the Final Shape. Bungie is goin god damn crazy out here. Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, and Witch Queen are ALL free to play now, power level requirements are coming down hard, there's fireteam power, new pvp maps, destiny 2 hoard mode, ETC ETC. Just gonna share my thoughts on it all.

    It may land, it may flop. But considering how hard Lightfall fell, I'm surprised how 'Into the Light' has bounced back with a vengeance. My fingers have never been this crossed before

      Into the light is full on recycle... We paid for the majority of that content long ago.
      All the effort was switching the "On" box. Everything else was meant for 30th anniversary type of paid DLC. (Just compare the similarities)
      They even held on the UI rework for almost a year just to sell it in FS, there were leaks of the rework long ago. Clear proof they do not care about player convenience in the slightest while withholding such an important QoL feature.

      Its called burnout, and im surprised how many d2 players feel and and have no idea what it means, if you do to much of ANYTHING daily (like thousands of hours) relatively consistently, its pretty common to just burnout and lose motivation for years, usually it fades, but again, it can take years, while it happens a lot in video games, it can also happen with jobs or sometimes longer shows. The only time I've seen this not happen is with autistic people (like me) hyperfixating on something for 12 years, but that gives a whole new type of endless dopamine and doesn't really count. Anyways, it happens to almost everyone, don't be harsh on urself abt it.

    The new (or long time returning) player experience is the worst out of any game I have ever played. As a new player, you will never know wtf you're supposed to be doing, what content is important, what content doesn't matter. Some quests are overtuned into the extreme (Nord.Ovrd.Avalon) and more tedious than anything you'll ever do, and some are laughably easy even though they require the exact same gearscore. At one point the game just threw a bunch of 1810 gear at me for no reason, yet my drops and vendor rewards continued to drop well below my GS level. Navigating the world is an absolute slog of loading screens, and there is so much feature creep into the game it's unreal. At one point I had 5 pages of quests. All from seemingly different DLC or expansions, and no idea what to do to get to "relevant" content.
    Oh and item diversity? I somehow got an exotic scorch hand cannon that exploded on kill and would wipe out screens of enemies. From the moment I logged on. That outperformed any other gun I got on my journey to 1810+ GS. It was a primary weapon and nothing came close. I was doing Vanguards or Nightfalls with people with a guardian rank of 10 and outperforming them (scoring 2x higher) because of this stupid weapon that required zero skill. But then in Gambit when we were invaded, I would land three consecutive headshots on the opposing guardian, do zero damage and get one tapped. There was no rhyme or reason to it.
    I also tried doing a 50 wave onslaught that was "recommended 1600 GS" and was getting one shot by everything towards the end at over 1800 GS.
    I think they'll get some returning players as they always do, but then quickly fall off as they always do because the game is borderline unplayable for new players right now; it's an unintuitive mess.

    • @VengefulLuna12
      @VengefulLuna12 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hm, seems like you needed a guide, the weapon you had called sunshot is mainly for pve, in pvp its not recommended.
      weapons are tuned for pve and pvp respectively so it did not perform as well the quest issue is definitely a thing and getting under 1810 stuff is due to 1810 being pinacle, and 1800 is soft cap, the resson its ranked 1600 rec is because it levels everyone up to 1800, they state this ingame as well, also vangaurd or nightfalls is easy to carry in because alot of people are garbage or dont know what to do or are doing bounties
      FInally the super hard content you said is because you didn't have a build crafted and it is an exotic mission, not an average mission, average activities are always going to be easy because you over power them and content that require you to select difficulty or different maps are usually the harder activities.
      New player experience is bad, however you really will need a guide, ask any content creators discord or even use the new fireteam finder system
      **IN HIGHER ACTIVITIES YOU WANT THESE**
      You should always use some kind of resistant mod or surges on armor along with siphon, since you use sunshot definitely try solar siphon, idk you're class, but if hunter use solar or void with one fragment to make firesprites to heal or use healing nades, or void for invis and devour, if warlock same with with solar but use well of radiance, and finally titan some mix between thundercrash and or behemoth for some fun, use recouperation if health is an issue and if not use scav or surges, since you have sunshot i recommend a linear or rocket as a heavy but it is up to you

    I respect your opinion, but it is just not financially responsible for me and many others to spend $120 for something that i need to continuously do year round to justify the cost. And even something like just baseline Final Shape and whatever season it comes with is still just... not worth it, unless they just go above and beyond or something. I'd love to keep playing, but for something that is higher than like 40-50, much less double/triple that amount, I just cannot justify purchasing. Not only that, but I've come be more skeptical since Lightfall dropped. So if the Final Shape is TRULY incredible, I would need to see it to believe it.
    Granted, the free content is amazing, and I - quite frankly - suspect that the Devs pushed to make that happen, despite their higher-ups needing some... convincing. As such, despite the fact the I actually DID get Lightfall and played it like a madman when it came out, I have to step away from the game by the time The Final Shape comes out. Thanks for the vid tho.

    • @Estarvia
      @Estarvia 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Why $120? If you are on PS, everything except Final Shape is free (legacy pack for a month, Lightfall on PS+ for may)
      If you actually want to purchase the Legacy collection, its discounted to $12 on PSN too.
      If you are on PC, you can also wait for the inevitable discounts that they always do that should match or improve those PSN prices.
      For all intents and purposes, you can get everything before Final Shape eitjer for free or for around $20-25
      And Final Shape you can also just wait for it to drop a bit in price if you dont care about buying day 1

      @@Estarvia That is very true! however, there's not really a point to grinding those free activities that will inevitably get very boring without some form of final shape based content to have access to. that's kinda what i had in the back of mind while i was typing that i guess.
      As for the drop in price on PC... If that happens soon enough, I hope it's significant enough for me to be willing to play once more, without feeling stressed out and needing to get my money's worth.

      I completely agree the fact that it’s all times events and I’d something comes up in life you’ve just wasted your money they’ll prolly never be a way to go back and do them just like so many things in the game and I think that what pisses me off the most half of the shi I bought has been scrapped and the story’s don’t even exist now so it’s like I wasted my money on previous releases like if you pay for somthing you should be able to access it forever and always because you invested in it but I feel like a lot of ppl have gotten away from remembering that with the live service game play model but I feel it’s robbery if they are taking your money for something you have some months If that some weeks to finish I feel like a lot of what destiny is now is just money they release things like this to get ppl to come back and have them give them money and then they release okie shi Bv you’ve already paid for it all the things that bungie has done to me from sunseting to storys that I paid for being removed to now that I’m back in the for the final shape I have no real way of catching up because I missed the when everything was free so idk to me everything bungie has done has proved my point that this game isn’t worth it money wise time wise it will be fun and it will be exciting but after you’ll never get to enjoy it again so it’ll only be those emotions once if that

    @danielle8622 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Destiny 2 has turned into the video game equivalent of the "there's too much fucking shit on me" scene from I Think You Should Leave. I played D1 and then D2 non-stop up until about two years ago, and since then I've tried a handful of times to come back to D2 and... it's just too much. When the game has become overwhelming to return to after a long break even for someone who had thousands of hours played, that seems like a major problem. And power level isn't even the reason for it. When you stop playing, you lose that momentum of being up to date with everything and understanding every aspect of the game. I miss my time with Destiny and would love to be able to jump back in for a bit here and there, but it's become too tedious and annoying. Maybe if vault space wasn't limited I wouldn't feel so much anxiety logging back in to a full vault and not knowing what to do with it because I don't know what the fuck anything is anymore so I just run around the tower for a few minutes and then log out.

    Returning players and new players are gonna be completely different experiences. Bungie still seems to have missed the memo on how to make a tutorial and the only way to really get decent at the game in this stage is to delve into the community outside the game itself, learn the lingo and find out basic mechanics the game never even hints at. Those returning left for a reason, and to each their own, but i know for a fact a lot left because they were sick of being spammed with advertizing for ingame purchases that ultimately give you mid performance and play experience, then later finding out the one bit of content that wasnt pushed gives pay-to-win tier loot that is now meta. Bungie cant really add anything to the game that will change that because its a result of the corporate business model. Also the fact that they dumped the first two years of content in the trash despite selling nostalgia... theres really only one way to fix that mistake.

I'll choose to wait a month after launch because time and time again Bungie has shown that they place a lower level of care and attention to the parts of the game that I do care about (story + PVP) despite promising the moon and under-delivering every time.

      @@Alckee6904 true, and then there's the fact that they knowingly and intentionally release new things super busted. It's just so sad having to give up on a game that's been so important to me in the past. I started playing during TTK and absolutely fell in love with destiny. But it's become too much like chasing that feeling of trying a drug for the first time. I'm sick of getting that glimmer of hope because they appear to be making progress again, only for them to take several big steps back and alienate the community again

    Well my 2 year hiatus is about to come to an end. Started as an original D1 player and put 6000 hours into the game came to D2 and its been on and off again as ive grown and gotten a full time job and just bad content but if this is the end I've invested too much into these games to not see it through... oh boy i got some catching up to do.
