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.
