Destiny 2 Gameplay Reveal Event.
2017-05-24.
The other day saw one of the biggest MMORPG* events on the Internet that I can recall in recent memory: Bungie’s Destiny 2 Gameplay Reveal Event. Since some of us have to work, I didn’t actually see it, but almost everyone in my timeline was watching it and commenting on it. It had the feel of an Apple event.
I never played Destiny, since I don’t have any of the new generation of consoles.

Destiny 2 Anti-Hype.
2017-08-31.
I tried out the Destiny 2 PC Open Beta Tuesday night. I’ve never played Destiny before or even seen it or read much about it.
It was incredibly easy to install and play through the Battle.net launcher. I just clicked on the “Install” button and less than an hour later it was ready to go.
It was not quite as easy to configure though. It gave me exactly one opportunity to adjust my video settings and then I got a class selection screen.

Passing on PC Destiny 2.
2017-10-25.
The-guy-that-Nathan-Fillion-voices from the open beta. Soon you will probably see a lot of talk about the launch of Destiny 2 on the PC.
I’m trying to be more discerning with my game purchases these days, so I have no plans to pay full price for an over-hyped, mediocre shooter whose main attraction seems to be a large cult following. Maybe if it goes on sale I’ll take a look at it, but who are we kidding, this is Activision/Blizzard and it’s never going to go on sale, so I’m probably never going to buy it.

Destiny 2: A Picture Book In Two Parts.
2019-10-06.
Sorry folks, this page will probably take a year to load.
Up front I should say that I’m well aware that I could have turned to Google to clear up any confusion described below. I’m simply relaying how I interpreted the game screens presented to me in the absence of any other context, from the perspective of a person who has never seen or played Destiny 1 or Destiny 2 or even any Halo games before.
