I feel like we've got the same point we're just at different parts of that point ahah.

2.0 onward wouldn't be where it is now without the 1.0 players sticking around during the Free play period and putting enough trust in the devs to be willing to start paying again when they said they'd need to reactivate the subscription model. It honestly wouldn't have made it without that trust. New World doesn't have that - it's a corporate game with zero soul and absolutely no brand identity. My whole point was it feels NW is trying to pull a NW 2.0 ("OOPS, too much, gotta burn it down, pls trust us as we fix it!") But without any of the other reasons XIV 2.0 worked.

That's how I felt about Destiny dropping Destiny and moving onto Destiny 2.

Destiny 2 had an okay start, but it was just down hill from there. Even after Bungie left Activision, which in my opinion is the best thing they could have done, the quality of the game continued to decline. And it hasn't gotten any better since. They've made a lot of questionable decisions. It's clear that they have no idea what they want the game to be. At this point Destiny 2 is basically free advertising for Warframe. lol

Destiny 2's start for me was a pile of, "Yuck!" I know it's a bit different now since my GF picked it up with her sisters and we've played together since. Just when it released... there were no good exotics. Telesto wasn't nearly as busted as it is now. Shotguns and Snipers were suddenly considered "Power" ammo instead of Special, with terms being changed for absolutely no reason.

Kinetic -> Primary
Special -> Energy
Heavy -> Power

What were they smoking? Shotguns and Rocket Launchers aren't in the same class @_@
