Good to see most of them are playing PvE. Destiny 2 forcing me in to PvP is what made me quit the game.
PvP will stay in Destiny, whether people will like it or not
And the anti-Gambit slander shall not slander

Damn, pretty crazy. I just started playing over the weekend and it's pretty fun. Never played an MMO before so not sure how long I'll stick around for the grind and endgame stuff but so far I'm enjoying learning everything. Gonna try and get my brother playing so we can go through the story together.
And if crossplay eventually makes it's way in the players will be even better off. It has been awesome playing on PC with such a huge population.
It's Destiny 2, not Destiny

Just reminds me that Bungie must be like, thank fucking god we bailed out of Activision Blizzard.
I jumped back into it yesterday. Two things i wasn't happy about. The loading times are atrocious, i don't remember them being that bad. And they removed all the progression and sense of an actual campaign. I decided to start a Warlock and the game just went 'here have everything'. Ok? I don't know how to play this character. I don't know the powers, the synergies, nothing. There's gonna be a lot of confused people. On the plus side, the world is brimming with people, there's a shitton of content and the game is still great despite everything.
It's pretty crazy that the game has held global sales spots 1-3 on Steam globally for more than a week now
It's doing reasonably well on Steam. Certainly doesn't come close to the 1mil+ CCU people were predicting though.
Load times have always been bad in Destiny. It's just that most don't notice because the ability to still navigate through your character menu and inventory while the game loads has always eased that suffering. Were we forced to look at a blank screen watching a bar fill, then yeah, more people would probably complain. But being able to still interact with the game in a meaningful way while it loads is a game changer.
As for playing a Warlock, you fly around a lot, heal yourself a lot in the midst of battle and you have the best grenades in the game. Go nuts.
Somewhere Bobby Kotick is reading this news and thinking "that's it? Knew they weren't worth it"
Yeah the userbase collectively jumped to PC.
Currently all users playing destiny are keeping it consistent and the average play time has been slowly going up from 2 to 10 hours, and to probably continuously grow with the game.
Those numbers used to all be around 450K now PvE and Crucible are way higher then the rest
Sounds good! I've pretty much always played Hunter on both games so a change of pace was in order. And i like healing more than i like tanking so it was an easy choice lol
PC having so many more players than PS4 is extremely interesting. I wonder how many switched as a result of cross-save. Destiny 2 runs really terribly on these consoles at this point, and the tools available to PC players (the LFG Discord and now Steam features) really make it a no-brainer.
With PS4 exclusive content gone, PC is the de facto definitive platform for Destiny as the player experience is significantly superior.
I bought Shadowkeep on PC because of xbox cross-save and 144hz / 60+ fps on my pc.
For a game like this, I don't think I can go back.

I can imagine a huge part of these being f2p players while many veterans still wait how Shadowkeep will pan out.
Very deserved.
Will happily add to to the Steam numbers soon.
Hearing nothing but great things of 60fps Destiny.

Remember when people said Destiny wouldn't thrive on PC because it's RPG elements were too basic
