Destiny 2 May Have a Lot Riding on The Final Shape

Destiny 2 has been in a rough spot for a long while now, with the launch of Lightfall being the first of a series of problems with Bungie’s looter-shooter. Lightfall didn’t meet players’ expectations in terms of gameplay and narrative, with the story failing to deliver answers to long-standing questions, which were only tackled starting with Season of the Deep – over three months later. Issues started piling up, with players becoming well aware of the many microtransactions in Destiny 2, with the recent Bungie layoffs and The Final Shape delay exacerbating negative feelings within the community – and apparently within the remaining developer teams, too. Based on all this and a recent report on Bungie’s situation, The Final Shape has a whole lot riding on its shoulders.
