I loved this game and put a lot of time into it. Thousands of hours, hundreds of raids, and a lot of other high end activities. But I wouldn't recommend this game now; especially to new players.

The game does not respect your time and Bungie is more concerned about playtime than if you have fun. The game used to be fun and rewarding but now it breeds apathy among players to do the bare minimum because anything above that is soul crushing to do.

Bungie also seems more concerned with constantly making new content at an unsustainable speed than fixing the game's core problems (some of which they don't see as problems). A huge amount of weapons, abilities, etc. in the sandbox have been gutted and left to die for years now because of poor balancing in the past. The game's reward structure and leveling is also incredibly stingy and soul crushing. I can spend 4 hours in Destiny and get nothing, while other similar games I can spend 4 hours and make meaningful progress.

This game used to be fun, but don't play it now. It's a husk of what it used to be because the developer cares more about making streamers happy than making your average or even hardcore player have a fun and rewarding experience.
