Destiny 2 Renegades review-in-progress: A New Hope?

Destiny 2 Renegades arrives with the long-running MMO-lite in something of a nadir. The game’s last expansion, Edge of Fate, was intended to kick off a new story arc, but flopped. Player numbers are down, and while Renegades’ Star Wars roots would have been put down years ago, a cynical eye could see it as a desperate attempt to grab back attention.

It's Destiny 2 : Star Wars Edition. It's funny how much this is a blatant rip-off. That being said, it's enjoyable so far, and getting a praxic blade (lightsaber) is pretty cool to play with. Let's see if this expansion can keep enough interest.

You do realize this is an official cross-over with Star Wars, right? It's not a rip-off if they worked with them to make it.

oh absolutely, they would have had to to given how much of an "inspiration" it is. No way you could get away with this without it being a copyright infringement.

Rip-off was a bad choice of words, I just meant it's literally like playing a Star Wars game now. Music, locations, sound effects, everything just feels like they reskinned Destiny 2 as a Star Wars game. Even the villain is basically Kylo Ren 2.0

Destiny 2: Renegades Review | NoobFeed

It feels like an old game, even though it has some fun parts, especially with the new guns and Renegade abilities. The story is based on Star Wars, but doesn't have an interesting plot, and there aren't any new Strikes, Crucible maps, or Raids.

Destiny 2: Renegades Review - IGN

This Star Wars-flavored expansion is cringey and light on content, but what’s there works surprisingly well.

I'm trying to play this and it's just not doing anything for me. I really miss the classic days of Destiny tbh. The bloat and ever grinding time for something that you won't use other than in that raid just sucks you dry real fast.
