+1. Sensible and eloquent as always. (Destiny)

While I think the press is being somewhat unfairly harsh in their reviews, doing so might help Bungie get their asses in line when it comes to the Eververse and a meaningful story campaign.

I mean, is this Groundhog Day? I really enjoy D2, but this feels just like D1 in terms of all the controversy surrounding this and that and what they've released post-launch. So many steps backwards from a lot of good steps forward from Taken King through to D2. I don't really know how to feel about Bungie anymore. While I enjoy Destiny as a whole and have for many years here, I'd never argue that it's one of the greatest games I've ever played or ever will play. If Bungie decided that wherever we're at in three years is the end of the Destiny franchise, I'd be okay with that. I think I'm ready for Bungie to try something new (and preferably less loot boxy and MMO-y) for their next game. Fresh start time.

All this said, though, remember that Curse of Osiris is likely a very separate thing from what the Live Team has been putting together (namely the QoL changes). I don't think we'll have to wait as long for the game to gain traction like D1 did with the entire year between launch and Taken King/Spring. Maybe D2 will become more akin to Y3D1 before the Season Pass is through, and by Y2, Bungie will have gotten their act together, but like many other folks, I'm no longer as quick to give them the benefit of the doubt. Fool me thrice...
