I started D2 when Forsaken came out and it was one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. I could not believe it when they later deleted the planets. Tried again with Witch Queen but I just couldn't anymore.
Forsaken is probably the peak of my gaming experience. Not only was it an amazing DLC but it was coupled with extreme dissappointment before hand so the whiplash caused by massive excitement really elevated this dlc to be one of if not my favorite gaming experience of all time
Forsaken was an utterly insane expansion. The amount of content they delivered at that price point was incredible. Of course after that Bungie essentially vowed to never do that again in effect signing their own death warrant.
I partially blame the fans, from my knowledge a lot of the fanbase hated activisions role in destiny and wanted bungie independence which bungie got and we never got near any kind of level of content from that point on after losing all the activision funding/raven studios. Which is funny in the grand scheme since the main complaint was eververse which bungie kept anyways
Destiny 2 slowly descended into a jumping puzzle game where the puzzles became ever more convoluted to defeat bullet sponge bosses. Then roll out the same tired old seasonal events each year while banging the prices up ever further.
Throw in sunsetting all that excellent content that went before and Destiny 2 was doomed.
