How do you review a game that never ends? The latest expansion in the Destiny 2 cycle – The Witch Queen – arrives amidst typical controversy as the excellent Forsaken campaign is removed – excuse me, vaulted – to supposedly make room for it. We’ve got mixed feelings about the whole situation. On the one hand, nobody could feasibly accuse Destiny 2 of lacking content – the Destinations screen is a borderline-overwhelming mass of varied activities, and the Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, and now The Witch Queen campaigns remain available. However, it remains an anti-consumer decision to remove what was once paid content in the Red War, Curse of Osiris, Warmind, and now Forsaken campaigns. The latter in particular, as mentioned, was tremendous, and it’s a genuine crying shame to see it go. Some will argue that gamers have had plenty of time to download and enjoy Forsaken; we say that’s beside the point. Bungie have previously claimed that vaulted content will return; it remains to be seen whether or not that’s true. Who knows if we'll even be able to play this expansion in a few years' time? But we digress – is The Witch Queen worth the loss of Forsaken?
Well, yes. Forsaken was great, but The Witch Queen is the best Destiny expansion in the series' history. It has the most interesting and enjoyable story, surprisingly diverse gameplay in the main missions, and the same marvellous shooting and evocative landscapes that we've all come to expect from Bungie. It's the first time since The Taken King that we've felt truly satisfied with paid Destiny content.

It’s not uncommon for a drug to enjoy its time in the sun before being put on a back shelf for something else. But the complete removal of a drug is harder to do, since black markets find ways of continuing on. Such is the case with quaaludes, however, which all but disappeared, leaving only […]
