Destiny 2’s Game Awards Nomination Comes at the Worst Time Possible

2023 hasn’t been the best year for Destiny 2. There have been many highs for the game since the year began, but there have also been some heavy lows, from the reception of the Lightfall expansion to the more recent Bungie layoffs that impacted the company in many departments. Morale for Destiny 2 players has been low for a while, even if some of the recent additions to the game proved to be great, such as the Ghosts of the Deep Dungeon or Season of the Witch as a whole, and the recent nomination for the title at The Game Awards feels like an untimely gut punch.
