Why Buy Live Service Games If They’d Disappear. To top it all of, most of these games are 60 or 70 dollars at least. (www.gamescordia.com)

Destiny 2.

Never again. They literally deleted story and forced everyone to buy expansions if they wanted anything more than plinking at random bad guys around the map.

I never even touched Destiny 2 after they blocked off content in Destiny 1 for people who didn't buy DLC. I wasn't gonna pay more to play content I used to be able to.

I don't disagree with you here. In fact we paid and got content removed and Aztecross spelled it out on their predatory methods for generating income.

However, their plink-plink game has arguably some of the best gun play out there. And a cornered Bungie makes great content!

I just wish they stopped with the yo-yo of drought and flush.

Yeah it's a damn shame. They had something great. And they shit all over it.

This and linux compatibility killed it for me. Which is so sad cuz i love the aesthetic and gameplay of destiny

[–] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 4 months ago

Same. I loved the first one when I had a PS4 and was so excited when the 2nd came to PC then stadia. I thought that meant for sure it'd run on Linux. But nope
