Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate reviews open 'Mixed' on Steam, with a player count only a fraction of The Final Shape's — I'm surprised it's this low after a new expansion

The next era of Bungie's long-running live-service looter shooter Destiny 2 kicked off on Tuesday with its The Edge of Fate expansion — the first of two this year, and one that introduces a radically different type of location and campaign for players to journey through and experience. So far, however, the DLC hasn't exactly gotten off to the best start.

At the time of writing, user reviews for Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate and recent reviews for Destiny 2 on the leading PC gaming platform Steam are "Mixed," with 382 of the former and 3,138 of the latter posted (many players left reviews for the expansion on the main Destiny 2 page). Ratings on Xbox and PlayStation are more difficult to measure, though most recent Destiny 2 Xbox reviews are negative and the expansion as a 3.79/5 star score on the PlayStation Store.
