More concerning than Bethesda's decision to withhold early review codes from certain outlets is how heavily some sites are relying on the game to drive their business.

I actually enjoyed the hell out of Destiny, then Destiny 2 fucked everything up, got patched, got better, and then Bungie turned around and went "LOL - story missions? What's that?" and cut 1/2 the content out of the game. Content I paid for.

No more money for Bungie after that, I'm surprised it's somehow still going.

I was damn near 1k hours in D1. I think I'm still under 100 in 2, because somehow they managed to make every single map in the entire game a heaping pile of dogshit.

Then they also took them away constantly.
