10 Times You HATED Yourself For Buying A Video Game

10. Destiny 2

Despite its world-class gunplay, original Destiny launched in an infuriatingly piecemeal state, with only the bare bones of an actual campaign, a totally forgettable story, and an empty end-game with a disappointing focus on soulless loot-grind repetition.

Destiny did improve substantially with the post-launch expansions - which players had to pay for, mind - and when Destiny 2 was eventually revealed, fans were optimistic that Bungie had learned lessons from the first game's reportedly strained development.

And though Destiny 2 was similarly a well-engineered shooter with terrific visuals, the tide quickly turned when it became clear just how lackluster the launch content was once again.

The story was more pronounced but still incredibly underwhelming, the class system was "streamlined" considerably from the first game, and effectively Destiny 2 just felt like less of a game than the original did following the release of its final expansion, Rise of Iron.

To many fans, it was too much of a step back, and though Destiny 2 also improved substantially after its iffy first year, a lot of fans were kicking themselves for giving Bungie and Activision their day-one money for two utterly mediocre launches in a row.
