I know in my case, I was still holding hope. I logged in for a bit and did dalies and logged off. Then I logged in and collected my clan loot and logged off for a couple weeks. Now I don't log in at all in any meaningful way.

There's actually a relatively significant amount of people migrating back to D1 for the PVP alone. I for one like the subtle changes they've made to movement, but that's it and definitely miss the 6v6. Also, the lack of power fantasy in D2 compared to D1 is what I think is really killing it for people, maybe subconsciously. In D1, the exotics and your class felt powerful. Sometimes too powerful, but that's the point. That's exactly what separates Destiny from other shooters. This time around the exotics are extremely 'meh' compared to that of D1. The recharge rate of supers, grenades and melee is so slow, especially in PVP that by the time you get it the match is halfway over. I've only had a handful of matches where I managed two supers, and that was squeezing it in there. I hated the shotgun metas in D1 but still, would much prefer that craziness to the boring Better Devils/Mida meta that is pervasive in D2. It's just so boring right now.

Eh I've gotten my money's worth in both games at least from an hours-played standpoint (unsure about Destiny 2, but 255 hours for PUBG). At least PUBG has steadily gotten better even if the new map is questionable, can't say the same for D2. A game like this just isn't sustainable for a hardcore crowd, I just don't think it's possible to develop enough content quick enough to keep people engaged.
Edit: Oh, apparently this is a thing: Wasted on Destiny 2. 124 hours in D2 (PC). 229 in D1 (PS4) with the VAST majority of that being in the first two months after it came out.

Yeah, I get that, and of course there are many still enjoying them. With Destiny, I just completely lost interest before I had even "finished" a single character, but that's not really the reason I regret the purchase. That sort of thing has happened before, and will likely happen again.
I wish I hadn't supported the studio with my money, for various philosophical reasons that have been kicked to death on these and other forums in recent weeks. Too bad, so sad I guess, moving right along.
With PUBG, well I blame a workmate for talking me into it. Not really!
Early access, shit code, should have known better. My bad.

Pretty much this. Anyone playing this still is a) doing their 2-4 hours of powerful engram grind a week, b) playing the shitty PvP, or c) Gaige-level fanboys

A good read but lot's of this stuff was already in D1. A shame this game didn't have half of this feature day 1.

Thing is even if they make this game great in the next year, they already lost 80% of their people and will definitely not get the majority fo them back. Besides most of the good shit is end of this year probably next year. Hope they learned their lesson in D2 and wont make the same mistake in D3.
Like who releases a PC game with no chat options other than group? Like WTF??? And then 2 yrs to fix it, lulz

Yeah, they blew it because that was the first impression for PC gamers. There are enough PC options that you don't generally go back for a shitty game a year later. Console players might have more leeway because of Destiny 1, but even then, why come back to Destiny 2 if Destiny 1 is what you really wanted to play to begin with?
