Once again, Skill Up's thoughts are pretty great. (Destiny)

-How much are you willing to pay to get the game that you should have received at launch? "Forsaken is a retreat to the best parts of Destiny 1", as he puts it (a lot of it has to do with general changes that will affect everyone, even those without the DLC).


I hate this narrative so fucking much. The game we got at launch was a damn good game, and better than D1 in just about every way. I guess I’m in the minority on that line of thinking.


You're not. And I couldn't watch this video past the halfway point (he made argument after argument that made my eyes roll, until he claimed that Destiny 2's base game was "a shitty launch product" - at which point I said "enough" and closed the window).

His perception of this game is so far outside the universe of my own perceptions that I can't even listen to his arguments.

Yeah, I was done at the point that he said launch Destiny 2 was "objectively worse in every way" in comparison to Destiny 1...

I can appreciate that people have issues with Destiny 2, but that in no way makes it "objectively worse".

Presenting whatever criticisms (aka opinions) he has about Destiny 2 as facts discredits most of what he has to say because it's all built on a foundation that is a fundamental misunderstanding of criticism.

That the moon is approximately 363,104 kilometers away is an objective fact. That Destiny 2 launch was worse than Destiny 1 is a valid subjective opinion, nothing more.
