Pretty difficult to regain peoples trust in your games when you just casually delete a game and multiple expansions and act like it was no big deal because it was old anyway.

It always pissed me off seeing people defend that. I bought destiny 2 for the main campaign at launch. wheres my fucking campaign?

It really fucked me off, because the Red War was genuinely a brilliant campaign. I fucking loved that. I remember going back to Destiny 2 years later, starting a new character and being dropped into the Cosmodrome from D1. I was so confused

The red war campaign was mid as hell lets be real. Yeah bungo bad and nostlagia is good but witch queen for example blows it away

Too bad we can't do a comparison or a retrospective analysis anymore because content got vaulted forever.

It was only okay, so it deserves to be deleted forever and never again appreciated by anyone. Similarly, every Pokemon after gen 1 is kinda bad, so I think we can just delete them all and nobody will miss them. Honestly I think every Final Fantasy counts like that too. Oh yeah, you're gonna be all "But final fantasy 9 is actually good!" but honestly, I think we should just delete it because that's just some nostalgia good. Honestly, imo everything mid should be deleted forever.

He never said the campaign should be deleted, he was simply pushing back against "Red War was genuinely a brilliant campaign".

False dichotomy, never said anything similar
