I think “destiny is already dead” would be more accurate. I’ve introduced players to the game across multiple eras of destiny and it’s only gotten harder. Last one they asked what to do next and I just said “fuck if I know, what’s the map say?”
For a game that is increasingly inaccessible to new players, the only thing to do is fall off, and the monthly player count reflects that. It could maybe be saved if they un-vaulted everything and stopped monitizing the fuck out of it, but even then it’s lost too much blood.
Vaulting (making inaccessible) some content made it very hard for new players to start destiny 2.
Between this original sin and the tsunami of bad decisions that followed (fomo cranked to 11, monetisation non stop…) I don’t understand how the game manage to live this long.
Yes gameplay was good, but THAT good? Damn…
At this point either do D3 (not sure how now the history is supposed to be complete) or let it die…
I gave up on Destiny when my core group all got awkward-timed jobs and we didnt have time for it any more.
I was really looking forward to booking a long weekend off with everyone and just hammering everything we missed in an epic session. Turns out you cant do that.
