It's honestly the best casual shooter going, it's so silky smooth with fantastic clarity. Bungie just struggled with content and constantly changing up the systems.
There was more FOMO at the end than the beginning, the seasonal content loop with "passes" was horrible for it. Forcing certain build metas with their shitty artifact system etc.
I think it's on a bit of a backburner at the moment. The recent episodes were pretty rushed and not very exciting. Who knows what they will do with it. I think Bungie are more focused on Marathon atm.
You're right- when it works Destiny 2 absolutely works. Plus there's very little that fits the niche it's in, honestly. PvE shooters with that kind of replayability aren't incredibly common.
Yeah and you can still see the impressive art team at play with marathon (in impressed they still managed to keep talented people, seeing how they fired people left and right).
However, is there really a market for extraction shooter these days? The choice of making this kind of game really feel like trend chasing and generaly this doesn't end well...
