I've played Destiny 2 on/off for a long time, definitely thousands of hours at this point. In my opinion (which I think is common amongst the community) is that the current state of the game is the best it's been in a long time. Removing paid content is always going to sting, and I wish I had a way to optionally enjoy the old content at the cost of all the extra disk space it requires, but the direction the game is going is great and I'm very excited for the future.

I also have played thousands of hours of Destiny 2 and I have heard a lot of "this is the best it has ever been" from my friends who still play. But I just can't get past the content treadmill anymore. Life got busy enough that I can't keep up anymore, and losing access to old stuff sucks because it means going back to the game is that much higher of an overhead for me to re-learn. It also would be very challenging for me to be excited for the future knowing it might become worse, and the current golden age will be completely removed and inaccessible.

  I actually totally agree, it's hard to become re-invested if I take too long of a break. The lore gaps between missed seasons are somewhat frustrating.

Just want to extend on this point. I have about 700 hours across playstation and now just started to play on pc. I played heavily during Forsaken through to the mid-Beyond Light DLC where I dropped off. Having just returned, I find the game to feel really fresh if not a little confusing at times with the subtle UI layout changes and things that are now deprecated in my inventory which I now must discard. Overall my friends and I are happy with the current state of the game especially when you compare it to Halo (though I acknowledge this isn't a straight apples to apples comparison). In terms of old content being lost, the only part I'm actually quite annoyed at is the sunsetting of old weapons. The Forsaken campaign and all that stuff, I don't care about as much. To me the part that stings is that if I worked hard to get The Recluse, it should still be useable to this day.
