Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
I'm gonna take the plunge. I got into Destiny 1 right around when I got married and now I'm gonna buy loving D2 right before I have my first child. Reserve a slot for me in the PS4 Rad Dad Crew and I'll figure out how to join later.

why did they have to get so loving safe with exotics? are the only fun exotics going to be those first few in destiny year 1 that slipped under the radar and were actually good and that's it for the rest of the series? the standout in D2 is mida which was always just "generic good scout rifle" and it gets substantially duller from there. there isn't a single interesting perk on any of these loving things, this is retarded, why even bother playing if there's nothing to aim for?

oh boy handcannon readies slightly faster, HOW loving EXOTIC MY GAMEPLAY IS CHANGING SO MUCH THIS IS SO FUN. arc ability kills charge arc abilities slightly faster woah hold the loving phone I've never seen anything like that on dozens of generic purples no one ever gave a poo poo about. this is safe and boring as gently caress and just another wrong direction they're taking with the series. anything that can make their jobs easier they do, and most of it makes the game worse but who cares. there's no balance problem if everything is lovely and boring, smart work guys!

oh wait this isnt a dark souls style loot game anymore it's some whacky CoD bro poo poo where everything has the same stats so you dont need to do no complicated figurin' the only thing we like more than cayde is walls of lovely gifs from the human being krew.

it's round, like always


because its hard to balance Interesting and Fun with avoiding a situation where certain guns become mandatory. you know in your heart that if a gun is demonstrably better than others in a situation or gives some kind of advantage you cant get from elsewhere (touch & spindle for example) then moon wizard autists start drawing up excel spreadsheets and using words like 'throughput' to justify why lazer gun X is a must-have and dont even try to get into my raid without it you goddamn nerd

hey so nothing you have or do in D1 will matter for D2 unless you like 100% all content or whatever, right?

Partial completion and full completion of three Record Books will give you some emblems in D2.

Year 1, year 2, and Age of Triumph. (6 emblems possible)

Also if you got grimoire over 5,000 you get an emblem that says you're probably bad at PvP

all desire - the thirst for oil, war, religious salvation - needs to be understood according to what he calls 'the demonogrammatical decoding of the Earth's body'
Straight from reddit guy who translate for french canadian guy (lots of spoilers on amount of content):

There are 51 exotic items total, this excludes possibly hidden exotics. For example, ones from the raid and those like the Black Spindle etc.
18 exotic weapons, including 16 new and 2 old ones (modified)
11 exotic armors per class for a total of 33, so 7-8 new and 3-4 old ones per class
and of course no "3 of coins" (not sure what he means there?)
6 strikes. One is exclusive to PS4 so 5+1, each of the strike contains exclusive strike loot + normal loot
Armor mods are obtained in "bright" engrams and through trading with Banshee-44
There are over a hundred legendary weapons to loot, not including the armors, of course
And he also adds in another comment:
In the guide it says 6 available (note: he's still talking about strikes) on the 6th of September but more to come, so I imagine that they're gonna add more with updates. If I'm not mistaken, Deej had already talked about ten-ish.
Regarding the missions/quests:
17 main missions with a lot of plot and many cutscenes. It's way better than D1 with its 7-8 main missions and 2-3 lovely cutscenes.
Skipping some of his rambling, the post continues with:
30-ish secondary missions + world quest. Seriously it's way more than D1
Regarding World Quests:
There are 4 world quests, each split into 4 missions for a total of 16 missions (this is not including the main PvE missions btw)
More stuff here, regarding "hidden missions":
you should know that hidden/secret missions are not listed. What I do know is there is something hidden and players must find 2 keys. It doesn't say where or what it unlocks.

Smith said there would be "something else" for returning players on top of the emblems but hasn't spoken any more as to what that is

Filled out all the BONE KREW stuff, because I want to meet hot dudes in swimsuits and play SPAHSS BARBEEES (which is like SPAHSS MAHREEENS but less nerdy and way more gay) with them. Can't wait to get down. I was in GoTC last time, but it didn't do me any good, as no one ever wanted to play. Or at least weren't hot dudes.
