Destiny 1 and 2. I should have learned my lesson with the first game, but the hype train picked me up anyway.

I picked up Destiny 2 during computer launch, because I never got to play the first one and saw all of the hype. I played through the main story, which I thought was pretty good… the audio and visuals were stellar. Then I went to go do world stuff with people to level up, and found everything shallow and same-y.

There also was NO FUCKING TEXT CHAT. There was a box you could type text into, but it didn’t work to chat with people around you stupid baffling decision. They added text chat later, making it opt-in which meant nobody used it.

The one raid was okay. Not a lot of combat in it.

Strikes got boring quickly.

I played through the main game and the two first expansions that came with my deluxe edition. There were no random rolls on equipment, meaning everything was the same. I joked that they would add them in with the first expansion that requires me to pay… and they did just that. I never paid. I just quit. Fuck em. No I guess they took the whole ass campaign out, which is stupid because that was a pretty fun part if the game. I’m never touching a Destiny game again.

They not only removed the campaign the game originally shipped with, but also those first two expansions we bought. So many people defended Bungie when they straight up deleted the content, but everyone was still stupidly hopeful that it would make a return someday. I knew from the beginning of the "vaulting" that there was no "vault," and they just actually deleted huge chunks of the game from everyone's systems.

What an awful way to run a game hahaha. I had more complaints but I forgot them after so many years. Completely predatory game.
