Destiny is, and I believe, always will be, an absolutely fantastic franchise.

There are a million and one things that someone can get annoyed about just like almost every game. And I understand not everyone has had the experience I have (Playing since the beginning of Destiny 1), but it truly is one of the greatest games I have ever played.

You are immersed into a world that excites but at the same time keeps you on your toes. Since I started playing at the age of 12 even till now in my adulthood, this game has brought me so much joy. Obviously they've had to adapt the larger the game got and the more money they had to bring in. But I do believe they've have done quite well to retain most of the original feeling of Destiny and Destiny 2. This has all still felt like one cohesive story and play experience since I bought Destiny 2 first release.

My profile is deceptive as I have over 2,000 hours on this game if you include my time on Playstation and before Bungie migrated to Steam, and honestly this game has never upset me to the point I didn't feel like playing.

For new players today, yes there is alot to catch up on and it may be frustrating having to learn every quest and where to get what stuff but, that is the fun of it. I have always felt a rush when that grinding for a certain weapon or loot paid off. Raiding with your friends, it will never fail to bring laughs and a thrill. Crucible (PvP) is the same as almost any PVP, it will get annoying, but that's mostly not Bungie's fault.

I love this game from the bottom of my heart and am happy to keep playing it almost solely based on the joy it's brought so far. I used to jump when a thrall came at me in a cave. Now I take down giant time travelling robots.

It's immersive, it provides an incredible amount of content (some might find it short as they only play campaign missions but I assure you, find a destiny discord server or have just 5 friends to do endgame missions and you will not be disappointed with how much you can do), it brings a crazy sense of pride and thrill when you complete difficult challenges (and you are rewarded), it has real re-playablility (as you can playthrough as all 3 classes without restarting your first pick), and completionists are rewarded with really cool titles and seals that show your dedication.

Thankyou Destiny.
