[@connornugen3959]

Destiny 2 is better in my opinion because while endgame content was mostly grander in d1 the experience for the average player was one of a ok game in d2 they really tried to make it to where everybody could enjoy it while not having to have a group of friends to do raids and challenges with so while d1 endgame is more fun, challenging, and rewarding d2 is way more inclusive to all players
