Player with 6,100 hours writes negative review

The shooter Destiny 2 actually has good reviews on Steam: If you look at all 565,000 user reviews since the Steam release in October 2019, the online shooter is rated “very positive”. But in the last 30 days the worm has appeared: the reviews have gotten significantly worse. Even a player with 6,100 hours in the shooter makes his frustration clear.

How is Destiny 2 doing on Steam right now?

  • Destiny 2 is now back on a positive path in terms of player numbers after a low point in July 2023. In the last 30 days there were a peak of 145,390 players online – this is the highest value since May 2023.
  • Compared to the previous month, Destiny 2 increased by 25% in average player numbers.
  • But recent reviews from the last 30 days are now just balanced, usually being “very positive.”

    • The new season of the witch started in August and made you want to play Destiny again:

    DDOS attacks ruin the fun for players and the reviews on Steam for Destiny 2

    Why is that? Destiny 2 received an excessive number of negative reviews on Steam, especially from September 22nd to 24th.

    A German user wrote on September 24th: “After 2,698 hours in this game, I think I can give myself one opinion: The game is garbage. Wasn’t always like that. But it gets worse with every expansion.”

    A player with 1,600 hours wrote on September 25, “Ignore the game until Bungie gets the DDOS issues under control.”

    A player with 6,100 hours cursed (via steam): “I had 6 wins and 0 losses. Was DDOSTed. Afterwards it was 5-0, DDOS again. Then 5-0 and DDOS again, and I was solo the whole time. Thank you, hacker group. Bungie’s servers suck. I will not pay $100 again for the Destiny 2 expansion. It’s not worth it. I’m uninstalling. The game is full of garbage.”

    This is behind the negative reviews: There are some disappointed players who generally criticize Destiny for its development and “addictive gameplay.”

    The drop in reviews on Steam comes from the DDOS attacks that the servers have suffered from in the last few days.

    A lot of people probably got their frustration off their chest. Anyone who gets kicked out of a PvP match that’s going well probably forgets that they’ve already spent 254 days with the game and that’s just with the relatively new PC version.
