Love Underground. They just need to roll out the 1.4 patch.

I love gaming and games and I loved The Division, but the endgame and the broken PVP multiplayer was a disgrace. Made me sell the game.

Definitely agree the biggest issue with the game was the end game, 1.0 was entirely based on crafting while the current build is grindy super tanky enemies that melt you. Thankfully massive has been listening by pushing back content in favor or balancing, 1.4 seems like it'll fix all these issues with endgame PVE content with PVP being the focus after they see how the PVE changes affect it.

I agree with you, 1-30 was really fun. For me, end game was kinda fun, too (let me explain) only because I was full skill power ballistic shield tanking the Challenging missions. It made gameplay different positioning, tanking bullets for your team rather than just emptying clips on sponges. Here's the thing though, tanking was also pointless. Not saying that it didn't help, but a group of properly equipped DPSers/damage dealers did the job at a faster pace, & in raids, 1 healer with the rest damage will do it. (not sure about the DLC)

Got really tiring after the release of the 2nd raid. Very grindy, not much to do. Especially because the game was incomplete since the start. Releasing the Challenging versions of some of the missions at a very slow rate...you were stuck doing the same 4-6 missions in the beginning. The way they should of done to freshen up the missions is to have them have different types of enemies every time you do them. The art of surprise could of been properly done in this game, different enemies spawning at random locations... 1 door empty, then the next time you do it, an enemy spawns from there.

The content was predictable, made it boring... One of the reasons playing it for the first time from lvl 1 to 30 was so much fun is cause you didn't know what to expect and the loot drop rate was really good. Greens, then Blues, then Purples becoming more common... The progression before end game was solid and good.

A lot more to talk about, but I'll leave it at that. The Division's end game was terrible, just repetitive and lacked versatility.

Watched the video. It's really good that they're improving the game, but I lack the motivation to go back, especially since I played it on PC, where it's a wasteland...and hackers. (Ubisoft messed up not being strict with that since the start) Do really like the tier system that I'm seeing, it needed that cause progression and balance between players was a mess. Also reduces sponging and fast deaths cause you can adjust the tier.

When I get the PS4 Pro and if the game gets a Pro enhancement, sure, I'll go back to it. Especially be easier to start from scratch with the tier system. One of the more intelligent decisions to Pro enhance it, get more players on board.

"Division got end game right? What the heck?"

The funny thing is that the praise is basically a contradiction and has more to do with the writer wanting the wrong things from The Division or games of the like.

"that’s something I honestly wish more MMO games did, since it seems kind of silly to let players roll solo for so long and then suddenly force them to group up or get lost if they want to keep progressing."

This statement alone basically confirms it. What is the point of playing an MMO if you never actually get/want to interact with people? Would the game really be better if you literally needed a four man squad to do anything?

"Unlike virtually every other MMO game out there (including Destiny), The Division truly does allow players to play their way all the way into the absolute limits of its endgame"

Stuff like this is also pretty funny, since it's fairly untrue. Everything, up to and including nightfalls/PoE/Challenge of Elders, were activities people commonly soloed. Crota's End eventually became another commonly soloed activity, the sword made it possible to solo Skolas and extremely skilled players proved it was possible to solo several sections of Vault of Glass and Oryx. The only things you can't solo are the aspects that make the raids exciting/unique.

"but I honestly have no motivation to play Destiny as it is now since there are no activities which I can just hop into as a purely solo endeavor while also being able to find the game’s best gear."

Killing any ultra with a three of coins, which are obtained through easily obtained strange coins, give exotics.
Every exotic weapon quest, besides Touch of Malice (this technically can be if you obtain specific checkpoints, though it is also a gun that is only really useful in the raid anyway), can be soloed (if you can get an Atheon checkpoint you can solo him).
Nightfalls, even in year one, can be completed solo.
Challenge of Elders is also possible to solo.

The only thing you can't completely solo is King's Fall or Trials, neither of which have the best gear in the game and it's possible to hit 335 light without playing with another person if you don't want to.
