Base game became free to play when Shadowkeep dropped. That would be all of the expansion up to Forsaken I believe. Still have to pay for Shadowkeep and the seasons if you want to partake in them.So was on Xbox Marketplace last night searching through free to play games...and Destiny 2 is on their so I downloaded it. When did it become free to play?

So...I saw that Bungie has parted ways with Activision....is this free to play model something they're going to keep doing with future Destiny titles?
You know, they really should re-name the "Free To Play" model to "Free To Start." Sure, the base game is free but all the expansions aren't. Shadowkeep is the price of full freaking game at 59.99! Is it worth that price? I don't know I haven't bought it. I just now bought the previous expansion Forsaken at 24.99.
I don't remember exactly. Probably haven't played regularly since somewhere along the way in Forsaken. Never really did the Black Armory stuff -- around that time I believe is when I kinda lost track of what was going on. I did have one character at 900ish so I've played some since then, I don't recall what exactly, though.What's the last thing you did?
Yeah, I haven't done anything this season yet. Might get into it this weekend.I don't remember exactly. Probably haven't played regularly since somewhere along the way in Forsaken.

While I've had some downtime I managed to get a character to 920 just doing the seasonal stuff and some iron banner. I've read about vex offensive, menagerie, sun dial and stuff like that, along with obelisks, but I haven't done any of those, nor do I fully understand them yet. lol.
