Renegades is "drawing inspiration" from Star Wars by Bungies words. Yet it looks like it is just Star Wars with a Destiny skin. This franchise is in my eyes, at least in the current hands, creatively bankrupt. The Ash & Iron "major update" shows clearly Bungie doesn't understand anymore what made Destiny 1 such a success and what makes Destiny Destiny.
This is likely the end. It was fun while it lasted.
Edit: On a further note, I am glad Lance Reddick (Zavalas OG Voice Actor) doesn't have to witness this decline. He would be ashamed what the game has become as a player himself.

If Bungle were smart (and they aren't) they would postpone the launch of Renegades and fix the current state of the game. Continuing along the current path is extremely denialist and tone deaf and - in my opinion - runs the risk of Renegades being the final expansion.
