I believe it was either Chris Barrett or Luke Smith who once explained that the reason why Rise of Iron / Age of Triumph had such high power fantasy was because they knew D2 was coming and it didn't matter how much they broke the game.
After the ITL showcase today, it seems they are once again unleashing the power fantasy. With some of those perk combos, I can't believe they will be able to sustain that for long in a way that doesn't conflict with their "don't trivialize content" philosophy.
I will be surprised if a D3 announcement doesn't follow TFS with the Episodes and 2025 being a buffer for a D3 release in possibly 2026.
Maybe a D3 under Sony leadership might actually be worthwhile.

There won't be a d3... things can change though, but with the new game I doubt that Destiny was a 10 year project and through various delays it has gone on a bit longer. Final shape will be the final year of Destiny, in terms of a live service.... can only assume they are adding the power fantasy now as the game has only a year (+ a few months) left. I think there was a post from bungie a little while back saying tbc for post final shape, but I think that'll be how the game processes from a live service to a fixed world... assuming they don't just turn the server off (only one server right, lol).
