@cjduke (Keep in mind this isn't directed at you only, but several people with the same responses) I feel like several people aren't reading the note added at the top of this article. Bungie announced last Thursday that all Purchases of Forsaken will include both Curse of Osiris and Warmind. So it's only $60 if you don't own Destiny 2 at all. If you got it from Playstation Plus last month, or bought it last year, it only costs $40 to buy Forsaken now.

As far as content goes, there was new End Game Story content up until 2 weeks ago, brand new Activities that haven't stopped coming even yet, including a new Live Event (Festival of The Lost) that added an updated Dark Timetrial version of Curse's Infinite Forrest (just yesterday) that's actually pretty good, a new Quest that will lead to an Exotic (very likely the return of the Thunderlord HMG) in a mission we think is set back on The Cosmodrome... Forsaken is far from light on content, in fact this week has so much content people are complaining about that; the Shattered Throne Dungeon, Iron Banner, and Festival of the Lost are all temporary Activities this week, so that's in addition to the normal Weekly Loop of content. As far as Raids go, Destiny 2 now has 4 Raids. Leviathan, Eater of Worlds, Spire of Stars, and Last Wish, which is more Raid content than they ever have. Now if we are to complain about the cost of keeping up, I totally get that, the Annual Pass is another $35 (or $30 if you buy it with Forsaken together), but that kind of goes against your lack of content argument here. We are getting 3 unique Expansions this Destiny year, and there will be 4 Seasons of change with them. Black Armory comes in December, just about 6 weeks from now or so, and will include new Quests/Activities/Raid Lair. Joker's Wild comes out in Spring (usually around April, but probably March this year due to 3 DLC's) and Penumbra in Summer (very likely June) and will also include a Raid Lair. So that's another major Raid and 2 Raid Lairs this year bringing us to 2 major Raids and 4 Raid Lairs. When you also think about how well received Destiny 2 first Dungeon was with Shattered Throne, it's also highly possible each new DLC will come with a Dungeon, and Shattered Throne was one of my favorite Destiny Activities to date. I wish Brad would have talked about Shattered Throne here, but I'm pretty positive he was too low PL to do it 3 weeks ago, and will be doing it for the first time this week if he gets a chance to with some of the people on Discord. Anyone calling Forsaken light on content makes me think they are just really out of the loop on Destiny. For anyone playing less than 20 hours a week, it's kind of impossible to do more than just the Weekly stuff right now on 1 character, much less work on Quests/Special Activities. You pretty much have to pick one or the other to go after right now.

@humanity: Clan chat on Console or PC? Because they put Global Clan chat and local area chat in PC several months back, like back in March or so... The PC folks on Discord talk about how great it is all the time.

Update: My bad, it just came in with the July update. It's still been here for a few months though. I hear the PC guys talk about it frequently.

Since I play on PS4, I really don't think that would be a useful Console feature tbh, I feel like it would be more distracting than useful, but I get why it's really useful on PC.

@tds418 It's sad that so many people passed on Rise of Iron and didn't get to experience Wrath of the Machine. I think arguments can be made that it is still the best of Destiny's Raid's to date.

@sammo21: If you are judging Destiny by this, quite frankly, garbage Quick Look then I can understand your opinions about Destiny. Honestly this was one of the most vomit inducing Quick Looks I've even watched. I love Jeff and Dan but my 6 year old niece knows more about Destiny than they do just from coming over to my house before I turn it off. But actually thinking Warframe is in any way, even a remotely comparable game to Destiny is pretty laughable. I've played both. Warframe is beyond boring and looks terrible. It also pretty much forces you to pay an absolute ton of money to get even minor upgrades for your character that require seemingly thousands of hours to obtain otherwise, hours of which are played with a terrible game. For all of Destiny's faults, like @pyrodactyl said, it's a fun game to play at it's core. The content in Destiny has actually been pretty good for about the last 18 months, even if Jeff and Dan picked the worst of the new missions to show it off. The biggest issue Destiny has, and has had for awhile is lack of content, not it's quality. Raids continue to be some of the best content all of gaming has to offer, and this was easily show again with Wrath of the Machine's launch on Friday.
