I was looking at Desitiny as well. But with some research I just find it that the team at DE is working with the community and adding then working against your bank account for updates and DLC. If you can pay, great, pay and get awesome stuff but the buy now items gets moved over to "get now" after new things are added. I hear great things about the open world area for the game that added and allot of customization for each player.
Had a convo with a good friend about Destiny 2 and Warframe and Anthem, in the end, we ended up with a basic idea of:
Play Warframe, wait for Anthem to fix it's problems, and if you can Destiny 2 (without DLC) for the in between. (DLC on special allot) and if you want to sink money into a game to "skip" grind, might as well a game with a good track record of listening to its players and full help! AKA Warframe.
I liked the 1st destiny with all the DLC but as I wanted to get into D2, it kinda felt like redoing destiny 1's grind all over (well my opinion)
