Destiny 2’s climactic expansion The Final Shape is now available, bringing to a close 10 years of storytelling – but launch issues have meant many players missed key narrative moments.
A string of issues plagued last night’s The Final Shape launch, which Bungie has now apologised for. These began with the game’s usual traffic issues whenever a big update lands, but continued with further problems that saw players kicked out of the game mid-activity and mid-cutscenes.
“I was wondering why the pacing felt so weird until I realised I had missed two entire cutscenes and had to look them up,” one fan wrote on reddit. “I understand and sympathise with server instability, but it feels so bad for the story experience to be harmed this much. I don’t remember this being that much of an issue with previous expansions.”
