In fairness, they did stop deleting content... but at the same time they stubbornly refuse to restore the content already deleted...

I'll never forget that sheer confounded rage I felt when I installed the game after a few years and suddenly didnt have any of the content I had paid for anymore. ~$120 at least was just fucking gone. They never even responded to my emails about it either. Garbage

Except seasonal content. I wouldn't care about the activities, but there is story stuff that directly continues story of one expansion and also leads into the next. Sometimes it is standalone, but also may or may not end up relevant later.

I was really into Destiny but once I got off that train it felt like I just can't jump back on.

I hate that they deleted stuff but I can understand arguments against the size. It’s at 130GB without all of that missing content.

I can't. There are games that are even bigger than that. Red Dead 2, for instance.

Jedi Survivor.

Master Chief Collection.

Any other actually big game that's come out in the last ten years.

Edit: I actually found 25 of the Biggest Games By File Size

Then make it optional 🤷‍♂️

I'm seeing reports of Black Ops 6 being 300?

But seriously, 130GB isn't awful considering at the time most people had ALREADY downloaded it in smaller pieces.

Apparently it's not that big
