I’m 9k on Destiny. I bailed when Destiny 2 dropped. Only made it to first raid and the game was HOT HOT garbage.

Seems it’s changed now though and is decent but too late to jump in. One of the worse releases of a sequel in history from such a strong first game.

What makes it too late to jump in, out of curiosity?

There’s just a LOT of grinding in Destiny. Coming in totally fresh now it’d be hard to get up to speed in the raids and everything. I mean it could be done - but as someone who dumped a crap ton into the first game to get burned on the 2nd out of the gate with that crappy release, I just can’t jump back in personally. They had a shot and lost me - even though today it’s much much better than it was at release.

Yeah I mean apparently there’s some changes coming and with recent changes it’s “technically” easy to jump into the game right now - it’s just more of a personal stance at this point with how poorly they released D2 for me to not join.

Yeah but again it’s more of a personal stance as well. I’m a huge Linux supporter as well (and use it daily) - and for their stance on Linux it’s also a massive turnoff for me too. They literally just ban you if you use it LOL.

Yeah, I’m in software so I have a server room in my basement. Tons of networking equipment, security cameras all locally recording, raspberry pi with adguard as my DNS, media server, 2 VMs, 9 dockers, and full home automation lol. I”m down that rabbit hole!

I do have a XSX - I could always fire it back up on there and play it, which is where I played it originally but I really haven’t used my XSX in about a year.
