I'm on the fence. On one hand it sounds like they fixed a lot of thing, but it also sounds like they made it much more of a grind again and I don't have time for that.
It sounds like the grind is much more of a choice now. If you want the really impressive stuff, you grind.
I've got Forsaken pre-ordered. Destiny is just such an impressive game. I expect learning the hard lessons they learned with Destiny 2, Forsaken and beyond is going to bring some fabulous content which will bring a lot of players back into the game.
