Is it good now?

Is it worth getting on PC?

What makes it better?

Shilling

no, the only people that tell you yes, are those poor third world retards who can't cope with the fact that they bought a shitty game and forces themselves to like it

no
core gameplay is still trash

>poor third world retards

Okay, say whatever you want about Destiny, but how is it a game for poor third worlders? It's been milking as much money as it possibly can, selling every DLC for way too much and now even doing an "Annual pass" thing to sell what should probably be free updates. Why would any third world country person with terrible internet pick an always online grindy game that costs so much when there's shit like Warframe?

The game is currently at it's best so far.

Destiny fans love taking abuse it seems.

There're people that are ok with that payment model
Let that sink for a moment

so, how is this game compared to anthem as a farming-simulator?
getting loot in anthem is so unrewarding and boring

only that dlc is
the base campaign and the other two dlcs are still fucking terrible slogs you have to grind through to get to the good stuff

It's okay. It's a definitive improvement over Anthem but it's really hard to say "it's a really great game!". I've been enjoying it but it's hard to recognize Destiny as anything more than above average for it's Genre. Or maybe it's the best thing ever because how many competent looter shooters do we even have?

I can tell you the loot specifically is done a million times better than Anthem.

is there any kind of build variation in D2 or are you just hunting for better dps?

There's definitely different builds and weapons. There's 3 classes, all of which have 3 subclasses that you can further specialize a little bit. I'm mostly speaking from the leveling experience so far so I kinda just try out different weapons/abilities as I go along, but I imagine there must be some sort of "meta" in the end-game given that there's PvP in the game. Maybe someone who has been playing it for a while can elaborate better.

I was enjoying it but now that they removed titan skating I'm afraid to play again

Which isn't very good

It was never good, same with D1/Division/Anthem. They all carry over the worst of shooters and the worst of MMOs. They're all wastes of time.

You know I don't want to play Destiny it has a massive amount of ever increasing problems that Bungie are incapable of fixing in a timely way. It just takes them fucking ages to go "Well this thing is fucked lets tackle it"

Fuck One Eyed Mask making every other Titan Exotic pointless, fuck Spectral Blades which is now better than every single other super.

I just want a good team deathmatch based shooter with competent to great gunplay and actually looks good. Right now that just seems like a fucking impossibility.

Titanfall 2

Community is pretty active on PC, and pretty sure some user here made a clan

>Minigames
I'd just stick to playing Halo.

Except One Eyed Mask is getting a nerf soon
Also fuck those who use Blade Barrage as a panic button vs other supers

better loot system,more content,a focus on endgame

is the drifter thing good

It's slightly better now, but still not wow awesome fantastic.
D1 will always be better anyway.

Pretty much waiting and praying that Halo whatever the fuck name is going to be good.

Aside from being more or less dead its far too depressing thinking about how popular Apex BR shit is than Titanfall 2. It deserved better. I might have been fucking terrible at it because my old boomer brain could not go fast on walls and shoot at the sametime but I had a blast regardless.

Got this on PS+. Finished the main quest and side quests. What’s the DLCs like? Are they cheap?

If you buy Forsaken you get it the two DLCs which preceded it. Frosaken is decent and did a lot to elevate the game out the slump that CoO and Warmind left it in.

no

can I solo the main story?
I still have this when they gave it away

Please tell me Forsaken has a LOT more than the expansions before it. They straight up advertise the game as "Destiny 2: Forsaken" everywhere now so I really hope it's better than the clusterfuck that was Curse of Osiris "Time travel but also computer simulations but completely inconsistent with itself"

Wait, even the first two DLCs were mediocre?

You can. The campaign and adventures/whatever you encounter on your way are all soloable, only thing I saw that you may need a team for are "Strikes" which are basically mini missions with a team of 3 people. It's not complex like let's say WoW Mythic+ dungeons, most people won't even really talk to each other so you shouldn't worry if your problem is forming teams with others and coordinating anything.

that's nice, guess the next question would be is the campaign worth playing

Frosaken is like an expansion compared to the CoO and Warmind. It's got two zones, strikes, gambit and a raid with shit loads of lore, if that's your thing. Overhauls armor and weapons with more perks and give each class' spec a third tree.

Yeah, they were shit.

you could do this but there are parts where they force you to do some stupid shit, like grind levels to do the next part of the story, or do what they call strikes, which are co-op side mission that they pair you with 2 other idiots to complete, or even tell you to play the pvp for armor you can't even equip because it's 500 power level, which is the secondary level after hitting level cap, kinda like armor rating in division, and you need to be like level 48 to wear it anyway

I got it for free last year, is it good alone vanilla or do i need the expansion packs to enjoy it?
Can i play solo or do i have to grind stuff with retarded people?

Well you have it for free, right? Why not give it a shot? In my opinion it's "just okay" in every aspect of it, especially the base game. It's not super long so it's not going to be a massive waste of your time. I've been enjoying it, but keep in mind I've been playing through the whole thing with a friend and it's hard it's moments.

Also my expectations have been completely tampered with because I played Anthem recently and also Titanfall 2 which was one of my favorite singleplayer campaigns I'd recommend to anyone. So Destiny 2 is both a really solid game (when compared to trash like Anthem) and incredibly mediocre and not worth playing (when compared to Titanfall 2's campaign).

tl;dr It's ok/10, you already have it so maybe just play it for a planet or two and you'll have a pretty good idea if you wanna keep going.

holy shit
Destiny 2 is fucking 90GB?
what the fuck

>force you to do some stupid shit, like grind levels to do the next part of the story

There is no way you were unleveled to do the main story in the game, unless you ignored every single quest in the entire game. By actually doing them I've reached level 50 before I even started Warmind. I have not been doing any of the playlists or anything extra.

>or do what they call strikes
It never forces you to do strikes. They are entirely optional, at least on vanilla D2 which is what he has.

>they pair you with 2 other idiots to complete
What? Strikes are super easy and most people you play with especially at low level are very chill, since they are likely going through the game for the first time. If anything it's some of the super tryhard l33t players at max level that I noticed rush the fuck out of them going from goal to goal and even ignoring enemies.

Why are you so dishonest, user?

it never was.

>whole season based around the worst mode
What the fuck were they thinking?

Also to lay this to rest: Yes, you can play the entire campaign and most of the content completely solo or with whichever party you want to in Vanilla, except for Strikes, try to think of them as optional side content you can do if you want to. There's Destiny 2 vanilla which most of you seem to have because you snagged it for free at some point, there are two small expansions called Curse of Osiris and Warmind and a bigger one called Forsaken.

The game is pretty much only sold now as as the "Forsaken" edition which is all of the content above. There is also a "season pass" but that won't matter to you unless you are already at the level cap of 500 for items and own all of the above. It's not amazing, it's not terrible, if you already own it the only reason I can see why you may not want to give it a shot is , it's huge and unlike other games on the Blizz launcher there's no option to play before the full thing is done downloading.

FFXV is 120 GB

>implying 90GB is a lot today
I bet in 10 years you'll be bitching how games are now reaching 500GB.

I'm starting to think that everything they did right in D1 was just luck because they pretty much are still ignoring all the things they "learned" in D1

Destinyfag here

PvE - 8/10
PvP - Dogshit/10

That’s surprising. Bungie used to be amazing at PvP.

I dropped it even after it was given for free for PC. Divison 2 is...ok I guess? The open beta is anyway. Warframe is boring after 40 hours. And no one plays Anthem so yeah this genre is pretty fuck awful and I have no idea why there's even any devs at all chasing it.

It's the same game, there's just more to do now.

>got the game for free
>can't play it because of my toaster

D1 and D2 sold extremely well despite the awful reception for both games at launch. Warframe has a fuckton of players with hundreds/thousands of hours who love to buy platinum regardless of how fast you personally got bored with it. The Division seems pretty popular too but it never interested me personally so I don't know much about it. Then there's different looter shit like Diablo 3 and PoE or whatever. It's a very profitable "games as a service" model when done right, it's got the online, co-op, in some cases pvp with grindy / addiction feeding game design on top of all that. It's not hard to see how their potential is attractive to publishers. Thing is it's a pretty tricky formula to nail down right so any really good games of this type are going to be few and far between.

I wouldn't say it's dogshit, but it is hampered by constant balancing issues. Part of it is simply unavoidable because of the huge pool of RPGish weapons and armor. You can't expect the game to have a bunch of unique gear designed for both PvE and PvP and to be perfectly balanced for both those activities. That just can't be done unless you streamline everything severely but then the loot becomes boring and you don't care about getting new stuff anymore. As such metas end up being formed and you mostly see the same weapons being used in PvP. You can use most weapons viably if you aren't a shitter, but it does get boring to fight against the same types of weapons so much, in my opinion at least. Basically there's plenty of room to change your own playstyle but the people you play against will mostly be the same. Maybe that's the case for most competitive shooters though, I dunno.

What's not as inexcusable is how Bungie can't make up their minds on how to balance class abilities, or mainly supers. But this is also because the community is a bunch of retarded fucking crybabies who don't know what they want and Bungie ends up caving in to their whining. If these casual fucks are punished for using their super poorly they go and cry about it being a bad super instead of learning to use it better. The problem is if a super feels lackluster to them, they are always comparing it to the top 1 or 2 other supers in the game and want all supers on that level, instead of nerfing the 1 or 2 OP supers. And it ends up being this constant back and forth mess where there's always a couple of supers that are stupidly powerful and there is nothing you can do to counter them and the things that CAN be countered if you play well or the person with the super plays poorly (as it should be) end up feeling shit in comparison.

Also the competitive ranked mode is awful unless you have a solid team of 4, so pretty much only casual quickplay is worth playing.

is it still on the activision launcher?

yes, it's still on the blizzard launcher

>There is no way you were unleveled to do the main story in the game, unless you ignored every single quest in the entire game. By actually doing them I've reached level 50 before I even started Warmind. I have not been doing any of the playlists or anything extra.

Actually there is now. I started a new character recently and you are constantly 2-3 levels behind after each quest now. lmao

>inexcusable
Meant to say excusable.

Also I just wanted to note that despite all the balancing issues and the shitty state of ranked pvp, Destiny is really the only game that's filling my kind of niche for competitive shooters at the moment which is why I still enjoy it. Realismshit like CS is too straightforward for me, I prefer stuff that's a bit more fast paced and focused on movement. Quake is too dated, and Quake Champions is a clunky ass mess. I'm sick of team focused hero shit like Overwatch, BRs have too much downtime... Destiny is kind of a middle ground between high mobility arcadey stuff like Quake and realismshit like CS or BF.

I think the only other game I might like is Titanfall 2. I haven't tried it yet, it may or may not replace Destiny for me when it comes to competitive shooters, but probably not since it's an almost abandoned game at this point. R6 Siege might be fun but that'd be more for an appreciation of tactical mechanics than running and gunning mechanics.

It would be cool if Bungie added an arena mode type of PvP that mimics Halo/Quake, where everyone starts with the same stuff and pick up weapons from the map, but that will literally never happen, so the best I can hope for is that they become better at tuning class abilities and stop going so fucking crazy with some of the exotics and pinnacle weapons because goddamn it takes them half a fucking year to nerf something when it turns out to be overpowered. Even with things that were fucking blatantly overpowered before they even came out like One Eyed Mask.

That's not tryharding, it's running through the motions and trying to get it over with as fast as possible because you're doing the strike for the billionth time.
