Great DLC for Destiny 2!

I'm not going to put any spoilers :) Forsaken is an expansion that came out in 2018. It's about avenging a friend who died. Our Guardian goes and kills all of the character's killers. This is the only DLC where most of the goals is to search and kill the enemies. The violence is still the same as outside of the DLC. I don't know why it says that the A word is in the dialogue. It's not! The worst word is said by a character who is mad at the killer, and she calls him the B word. Other than that there really isn't a lot of language, just some minor words. However, with killing the killers of the character, we do hesitate with killing the last character. Our Ghost states that we are out for justice not for blood and is concerned that our Guardian is on a rampage. Forsaken is a really good DLC. It does cost money but it's not overly expensive. I should say 13+ for this too for some scenes and enemies that would frighten younger viewers (also cause the game is T rated meaning 13+) But I definitely recommend this DLC

Amazing

The game is terrific! I've been playing for almost 3 years now (in September) The first game was amazing also, the controls are just like any other FPS and there's a double jump system. The blood in the game is honestly absent in my idea, the only thing I can think of is when you headshot other types of enemies sometimes their life-force, (Vex milk, Fallen ether) will come out but its nothing that you'll be scarred from for sure. The only language that's really bad is, Hell and I think Damn but that's it. The models are very good because you are the chosen one by the Nine to defend the Last City from different alien races such as the Fallen, Vex, Scorn, Hive, the Taken, and the Cabal. The game mechanics are simple, Everything with infusing, power levels, modding your weapons/armor, and classes and subclasses can be really confusing but once you get it all figured out it can be really easy to understand.

Best Destiny DLC

This is the best DLC and video game in history. But it is the most frightening and mature one in the Destiny saga. plenty of scary aliens and a beloved character is killed by a bullet to the chest and is left dying and bleeding out in agony in your arms. there is also stronger language in this than the other Destiny games, the strongest word in this game is "Son of a Bitch"

CSM sucks

so just going to refute your point about the ethics of revenge in this game. the whole theme is: is revenge right? morally: uldren is being minipulated. is it right to kill him? it isn't because of you are "wasting your time" it's because you run the risk of becoming a hate-twisted monster. the "Thin line" a hand cannon lore entry as evidence: "Thin Line- (legendary Hand cannon) Sometimes you forget which side you're on. Your Ghost makes a list of the things he wishes he could say to you. "Talk to me about how you feel." "I wish we would go home." "You're on a rampage, and I'm not comfortable with it." "I don't think this is why the Traveler chose you." "You know I'll never leave you, right?" "But sometimes… I don't like the look in your eyes." Every day, the list grows longer. "I'm here. I'm still here." "Are you still here?" "I don't want to lose you to this." "I love you." I conclude my case with this statement. why does the ending cutscene end with your ghost begging for uldren's life saying, and I quote: "this isn't the right way" oh wait, I just remembered you don't play the games you review. because your review looks like you read the two sentences in the eververse store and watched the trailers instead of experiencing the story yourselves.

Good Game. Moderate Swearing and Violence.

Its really not that bad. The game obviously has issues, but all games have one or two. Content wise, i would say its good for pre-teens and up, maybe 10+ if your kid is a bit mature. The language includes a few uses of damn and hell scattered throughout, and one use of Son of a B--ch in the cut scene after the first mission. the Violence is frequent, however no blood is shown. when you shoot an specific cabal enemy called the legionary in the head and kill it via said method, black goop shoots out of the helmet. this is later clarified in a mission in the EDZ that it is oil used to power their suit, but this could easily be mistaken for blood. otherwise, its just enemies falling to the ground or flying in the air after going boom. the only thing i would watch out for would be online interactions. as almost anyone who has ever talked with a random stranger online for ore than a few minutes, people can be rather vulgar. I feel that anyone under 13 should probably not be using voice chat, but its ultimately up to the parent to judge weather or not your kid is ready. Positive messages/ role models include the fact you are fighting for a noble cause, as well as role models of multiple ethnicities, genders, and races (human, robotic, and alien). Micro transactions are in the game, however these are all cosmetic and are not essential to progress.

Good game for anyone 11 and up

I think that Destiny is a game for anyone over the age of 11 because apart from slight violence (shooting and combat) there isn't anything bad. Sure there might be some mild swearing but it isn't as bad as the other games. It's a really fun game and me and my friends all play together in the co-op mode.
