However, players feel that this system is terrible and ruins the experience for both newcomers and veterans. Destiny 2 being a massive game, it can be complicated for new players to grasp unless they get some guidance from veterans. Players feel that New Light\u2019s current state is so poor that even veterans will have trouble explaining the ins and outs to newcomers. Apart from that, they feel that the game does very little to explain the fundamentals of Destiny 2 including weapons, armor, and end game. Lastly, they also feel that the economy is sub-par as Glimmer cost to unlock a full sub-class is not possible for a New Light player to cover. Destiny 2 players feel that the game is hard to recommend to friends A user on Reddit brought up the topic of New Light\u2019s state. He claimed it felt frustrating when he was helping his friend go through the New Light missions. As such the player claimed that \u201cThe New Light Experience is not only terrible and not well thought out, it actively ruins the experience for Veteran players\u201d. To this, one player commented, \u201cStill bothers me how out of place the current cosmodrome is\u201d as they went on discussing the New Light experience. Another player chimed in, \u201cThis is why I can\u2019t recommend Destiny to some of my friends\u201d as they feel this game is not at all new player friendly. Another also recalled the experience of Shroud as they claimed that \u201cHe could not use any of his subclasses properly cause the literal incompetency of Bungie with 25k glimmer\u201d as they brought out the issue with unlocking sub-classes. Lastly, a player commented that \u201cDoing new light is abysmally boring\u201d as they recalled their New Light experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 players slam \u201cterrible\u201d New Light that \u201cruins the experience\u201d for veterans BungieDestiny 2 has a free-to-play system in place for New Light players which is meant for those who have never played the game.
