In other words: It's a good start, but we're definitely not at a “ Destiny 2 is saved!” point yet. The new campaign is a decent excuse to dip back in, but it's short and as I said a bit underwhelming. The Infinite Forest holds promise, and is definitely a...
Abstract: Even if the the PC version of Destiny 2 boasts more-or-less the same content as the console version, it comes with a bevy of bells and whistles that will likely see it gain prominence as the de-facto version of the game for many. When the sci-fi sequel la...
There's a lot left to discover. An hour or two in, I've just unlocked my first new piece of gear—a cloak that's really more of a scarf, I'd say. We'll be back with a full Destiny 2 review soon, once I've made it through the story, reached the MMO-grinding...
"It's Bungie's stellar storytelling makes all the difference, though. Destiny 2 is every bit the superior sequel, with something to offer every Guardian."...
Between its affective imagery, crunchy combat, breakneck pacing, and compelling story beats, Destiny 2's campaign is off to a promising start. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Bungie's gunplay feels as spot-on as ever. Immediate, reactive, and ear-rattling...

Great new finishers, Raid and activities, Clever season progression structure, Nicely reworked armour system
Perhaps a bit pricey, At least at launch, Campaign storyline not the most coherent
If you own Destiny 2, Shadowkeep is pretty much a must-buy. It has a far-reaching effect as far as refreshing the whole of the game is concerned, and thanks to the season progression, offers more incentive than ever before to keep playing Destiny 2 on a r...
Rewarding endgame grinds, Another fantastic raid, A short but gripping campaign
Confounding balance issues, Occasionally awkward upgrade systems
It's not quite on the level of The Taken King or Forsaken, but Shadowkeep feels like a major step forward for Destiny 2. It's a promising starting point for the game's third year, and for post-Activision Bungie. I've thoroughly enjoyed the 100-odd hours I...
Much needed revision of content delivery, Great atmosphere throughout in environment design and score, Armor 2.0 encourages equipment investment, Seasonal Artifact is a unique idea,
Repeated content loses its shine faster as it feels overly familiar, No true conclusion to Scarlet Keep and the Nightmare enemies,
If you were ever curious about Destiny 2, Shadowkeep is the perfect entry point. If you are a reneged player that struggled with content doubts, there's no better time to come back. And if you are neither of the aforementioned, you probably should be. Sha...
PvP still needs work, and the story is once again more style than substance. However, abundant content elsewhere - including new PvE challenges and a build system with actual depth - means Shadowkeep does what it needs to...
