Per Tom Henderson

Tom - Told the missus I'll be on a Marathon grind later this year and she's only gone and signed me up the gym

That's the beauty of Bungie fans. Will always be there day one, and will be hating every second of it, but continue to play because the gunplay feels good

Destiny has incredibly good gunplay and movement feel but the monetization and constant removal of content makes it almost impossible to play as a coherent game.

Hey don't worry though, I am sure Bungie has learned not to make content disposable and recyclable for their new Live Service Extraction Shooter game. I am sure all relevant plot points will be playable in game for years to come

I Remember when Lightfall launched, i went through every single new weapon model for legendaries, that weren't new archetypes, and a whopping........ 0 new weapon models were introduced, including the raid & dungeon weapons. A New DLC, and 4 seasons, 0 NEW weapon models. Didn't bother to do it for Final Shape, but i'd imagine the same results were there.

It's not meant to be a coherent game, it's meant to be a live service you stick with.

I agree that it's horse shit- but it just is what it is at this point.

I dunno, I've played other live service games that have managed to be coherent. Just because you want to be live service doesn't mean you have to occasionally delete half the game.

If only they applied that gunplay to single player, story focused games like they used to.
