Concerns About Episode Format:
Players have expressed their concerns about the episode format in Destiny 2. Many feel that episodes are just seasons rearranged, offering little innovation or improvement to the game’s content delivery. The first episode, ‘The Final Shape,’ has not lived up to players’ expectations, with its story quest and seasonal activities being similar to previous seasons.
