In the words of the late Bob Saget You think Destiny is an addiction try sucking someone's -blam!- for coke Now that's an addiction man, You ever suck someone's -blam!- for Destiny

The amount of trolling and missing the point on here is nuts. Verdias been rather respectful and honest about why they are putting the game down. Kudos to the people who have been supportive.

While I absolutely cannot relate to being misty-eyed about this game, I am also out when Witch Queen drops. Will I play what little "free" content there is when it goes live? Probably. At least to check it out. Will I buy Witch Queen, any season, any a la carte dungeons or future a la carte exotics? Abso-f***ing-lutely not. For the past several weeks, I've done nothing in D2 but hop on to grab the free Bright Dust because, well, it's free so why not? Right after I get it, I turn it off. Only JUST this week did I run some Strikes on one character. Shortly after, I was instantly bored and turned it right off again. I will finish the content I've paid for, as much as I can tolerate anyways, until the next "expansion" goes live. I'll let the servers die for the first two days, as they do, then check out the "free" stuff later before, inevitably, I turn the game off one last time. Do I hope this game actually becomes good? Of course. Why would I want it to continue being a boring loop of only playing a handful of activities endlessly to raise a meaningless number? I would LOVE for Destiny to become a proper game where you explore and play your way to ACTUALLY become more powerful however you want to achieve it. But it isn't and likely won't ever be. It's just a loop. People pay over $100 each year to continue playing the same activities they've been playing to get the same gear they're already getting. That's why I use "expansion" in quotes like that. There's no expansion. Just an annual price tag so you can keep doing Strikes, Gambit, Crucible, a Dungeon and a Raid three times a week in the hopes your number goes higher. I already paid for that. I already played that. Several times over. This game should be an amazing world you explore and discover. Where you actually want to go to the various destinations to find new quests and challenges and rewards. It isn't. The only reason people go back to any of those places is because their latest chores list told them they had to. Soon as they've checked it off, they leave. Wow... Exciting. Back to those same five activities again. Sadly, it looks like The Blair Witch is gonna keep the trend going. Once you've done the campaign and once you've found the couple neat things hidden somewhere on the destination and gotten the Emblem or Shader that goes with it, you're only gonna return to it in Free Roam because a new Bounty says you have to or the chores list for your "weapon crafting" makes you. Otherwise.... Strikes, Gambit, Crucible, Dungeon, Raid, repeat. Yawn.

You’ll be back when drama queen drops… I mean witch queen.

Good job putting this Hamster wheel garbage down👏👏👏

Can understand. 1. They can't seem to make taken king and rise of iron style content anymore. 2. Pvp is an absolutely abysmal experience compared to first game. Slow and with the worst matchmaking I've ever experienced. 3. Most abilities feel weak, sparse and clumsy especially when compared to the first game. For the first time ever in Destiny history I'm not pre-ordering.

I'll never understand why people get this dramatic over a video game. All you have to do is follow a simple procedure. 1. Are you having fun? No? Stop playing. Yes? Keep playing. That's it. It's not an addiction, commitment, or a marriage. Just go play other fun things, and if you ever feel like coming back just do it. It seriously isn't that big of a deal. Destiny has had it's ups and downs for the entirety of it's existence. I just bail when I get bored and come back when something looks fun.

Good decision. Not only is it better for you, it's also the right decision because this game is a sinking ship only held alive to finance their new projects. D2 is just a cash cow that's being milked dry with more content taken away from us annualy than added. So which "various" locations did you say "bye" to exactly? Cause the ones i would take a farwell tour on are vaulted. Greedy company.

You are 1123 with literally 4 Clan mates... 🤔

I don't think destiny is your problem. If you are an adult and cannot put your real life obligations over something as trivial as a video game, then that might be the real problem IMHO.

I stopped playing a long time ago. I check on things here if game is improving. It's not!😂😂😂 Never missed the game. Best feeling ever. Can't believe I was playing this game almost everyday in D1 to something I don't even touch at all. I can't even get myself to play for free. Even if somebody pays me to play this game now, I still won't play it! 😂😂😂 State of the game!
