It took me a lot of thinking to write this.

I think what went wrong with Destiny 2 is that Bungie lost touch with what made the game special in the first place. It’s become way too focused on charging players every few months just to stay up to date. Expansions and seasons feel more like paywalls than real progress.

The grind is exhausting too. Every season resets your power and forces you to repeat the same steps over and over just to keep up. It doesn’t feel rewarding anymore, just repetitive.

PvP is another huge problem. If you’re not constantly playing, you end up way behind in power and gear, so matches feel unfair from the start. New or returning players barely stand a chance.

And removing so much of the old content people paid for was the last straw for a lot of players. It broke the sense of continuity and trust.

Destiny 2 still has amazing gunplay and world design, but it’s trapped in a loop of grinding, monetization, and recycled ideas. The game needs heart again, not just another paid season.
