As a Veteran that's been playing this game since the Beta this is my honest opinion how I feel about the future of the game.
Edge of Fate & Renegades will determine me if I stay or go because I want to experience this model to see how it is and so far I don't have much fate in it from what is shown and if I don't like it what I'm seeing it's a goodbye.
I kept buying DLCs because I loved this game but over the years its been doing nothing but going downhill for me because it seems this game hasn't progressed much since beyond light outside giving us new and revamped supers with underwhelming weapons and activities to the point raids and dungeons don't look worth the effort in doing them when their just as good or better weapons somewhere else with less effort especially when you literally grinding the same rolls and perks that are either an improved version or a nerf version of them each season or expansion with the only things making them different is the model and origin trait.
I look forward to the changes to the armor 3.0 but the weapons is a different story all these tiers sounds nice and all and hopefully solve some vault space issues about keeping more then 1 weapon which has been a issue for years but all that's goes down the drain if we keep getting underwhelming weapons with mediocre rolls that we have been getting for the past 5years because the "In to the Light" event actually gave me hope in BUNGIE actually giving us crazy weapon roll but then to walk it back when Final Shape drops was a huge disappointment.
I honestly think after this or the next expansion BUNGIE needs to just stop and do a D3 because this game has been going on for 10years and it's age is catching up to it because theirs way too many issues with this game that's holding it back for current and future players to get into.
That's all for now I have more to say but I rather keep it to myself for now till the expansion drops next month.

I’m not gambling with Destiny or Bungie anymore. EoF looks like very little content and more system upgrades and renegades just looks like they’re out of creativity and are going for a cheap Star Wars cash grab. Been in the same spot you are since D1’s beta. I ain’t pre ordering EoF. I plan on waiting till about mid August and seeing what fanboy and critical reviews say about the direction the franchise is headed and the way the leadership is treating the game. I just don’t trust the current Bungie to produce the Destiny franchise with passion anymore as they’ve really dropped the ball since TWQ.
