Is The Division 2 Worth It In 2024? (Review)

With a little bit of downtime over holiday break I was looking at my library of games and remembered that The Division 2 had just announced new DLC as along with the announcement that we are getting The Division 3.
So I decided to hop back into the game for the first time in nearly 4 years and It was quiet the shock. In this video I go over my experience returning to the game and trying to fully understand the games deep and complex endgame systems.

    Great review. Ngl, I was eyeing this game since before it came out. I was excited to play it, but got a cold feet when people started throwing bad reviews after the release. Now, I'm grateful to see at least a good review of it and just bought the game myself and currently downloading it.

    The Div2 is still one of the best coop, looter/shooters ever. Actually, that is a sad thing. Over the past few years, dev studios have been having serious issues creating games that might compete with Div2. Div2 stays "worth it" in 2024 because nobody has been able to create anything as good.

    I can't wait to get back into the game. I had so much fun during the lockdown. Started a clan and made some friends with many long nights killing baddies. The clan component was probably my favorite aspect of D2. Feeling that camaraderie and even though I don't have a mic, listening to the people and typing out responses, was sufficient and fun. It's such a beautiful game too. Thanks for a great video.

    I bought this game during covid alongside with the warlords dlc for 7 bucks. It was pretty cool at the time. Over the few past years ubisoft has added some stuff that was included in the division 1 when it had just come out. With the summit and descent into the game alongside with the shd leveling up and proficiency rank on gear and weapons definitely made me come back to this game last week.. i definitely recommend this game to anyone if its on sale. I dislike online service games but this is one of the 2 guilty pleasures of playing. The menu for the whole recalibration is a little confusing at first but over time you understand what it is and what it shows.

    I’ve been gaming for over 4 decades, so it’d be fair to say I’ve tried (and enjoyed) a lot of what the industry has to offer. The Division 2 is, without question, the best gaming experience I’ve had in all that time. When I got through the story and into the “end game” the significance of the depth in the build system hit me and I was blown away. There’s an embarrassment of riches when it comes to the content : Raids, Countdown, Bounties, Summit, Conflict, Dark Zone and Freeroaming. The attention to detail on the world building is phenomenal. The way rust looks on metal, car number plates all being different, the way light comes through trees to the way explosions cause water ripples. Five years on from release and I can honestly say that I’ve never seen a better looking game to this day. The Snowdrop engine designed by Massive constantly takes my breath away. The sound is amazing too. When you hear the first rumblings of a distant storm approaching always makes my neck hairs stand, because in the next 10 minutes, you’ll be standing in a deluge where you can barely see and lightening will be flashing around you as deep thunder rolls through your speakers. Also of note is how good the voice quips are from the enemy NPC’s, they’re invariably hilarious and also very contextual to what’s happening. The gunplay is deeply satisfying too. The range of weapons is truly impressive and combining those with skills and gear perks makes for the most fun I’ve ever had in a game. And the A.I. is brilliantly scalable and really smart. They’ll rush and flank you constantly and they know how to press the attack when one of your team is down and you’re trying to revive them. On a final note, and this is a big one, particularly in light of the gaming industry’s modern predatory practices, after you’ve paid for the Warlords expansion, every season pass content is FREE. You don’t pay a thing for all the events that keep things fresh. Given the low price of the game now, including it’s expansion, you’ve no good reason to not dip a toe into The Division 2 and see what it’s all about. Oh, and FWIW, it’s predecessor D1 is also superb. You’ll get a LOT of bang for buck here folks.

    The Division 2 is very addictive, if you like to explore and farm. Trying different builds and the expansion Warlords of New York is fantastic. Just walk around the New York DLC, it’s amazing. You can play PVP, or PVE your choice. The only thing that’s missing is a Darkzone for single players. Going into the DZ solo is not a good experience. Groups of two or four love to kill solo players. Thats where changes should happen.

    The 1st Division will always be the BEST. If you can survive Legendarys and clear all the INCURSIONS. Division 2 will be a give away. The only thing that sucks is the constant praying to RNGeezus for specific exotics on specific missions. ETC. Unlike in The Division . You clear a Legendary.. Guaranteed Exotic. Its difficult but fair at the same time.

    Great work! Recently I noticed that several of my regular Destiny gang have been playing TD2 almost constantly, so I'm guessing there must be something there worth their time. Sadly, as I switched from XBox to PC back in 2018, most of my gaming friends are still on that platform and TD2 still doesn't support crossplay, which I think is completely inexcusable at this point. Otherwise, I'd probably jump back in myself. For me - avid Division Agent since the very early TD1 days - the grind just got too repetitive. Might check it out again, but not until they've ironed out the stability issues. I'm pretty sure a hard TD1 crash toasted the 1080 that came with my original gaming PC. Not interested in more of that.

I feel that with most of these live service MMOs that have sequels if you didn't jump into them from the beginning and you decide to play it late in its life cycle and and another sequel is going to be released and none of your gear or progression will carry over, whats the point in grinding for an old game?

    The 3 things I think the game really needs is first, a shared open world, I love seeing other players in the world in a MMO, it makes the game feel more alive. Second, a better queuing system, we should be able to queue for more than one mission/activity at a time. Since the population of players is pretty small, you often can’t find a group so having more than one queue would help. Finally would be cross play so all the remaining players can play together

    I remember getting this and the bad Star Wars battlefront 2 (2017)for 5 bucks when the whole loot box thing finally exploded. I was guilt tripped to play them with friends, but it never happened. From the get go I h@ted live service/looter shooters like destiny 2014 and the first division 2016 for being major icons of greed within the gaming industry. Plus, overwatch (2016)and halo 5(2015) at the time setting bad precedents. To my surprise, I enjoyed myself in the campaign with music turned on in the background, and the green landscapes were pleasing to the eyes. I never touched the multi-player and never finished the campaign. For 5 bucks, it was a smooth brain experience back in 2019, and I might try playing it again in 2024. Can someone run me down the solo single-player experience and how meta affects it? Do I need to farm and bring loads of cans again? Farewell and have a lovely day.

    Left the games years ago. I've just redone The Division 1 campain, and I was wondering if going back to TD2 worth it. Seems it does. On the side I've been playing Helldivers 2 and, even it's plenty of fun, it lack the depth of both Division games. Seems, I'm going back in ;)

    Every time i boot the game up after a break there is new shit to do. Theyre def sinking time into it . What i like about it is that the difficulty is dependant upon your build. If you have a shit build it is going to be a real struggle so it forces you to pay attention to the minutia.

    Seriously comparing that’s me too with division two here’s the one major difference, but destiny two is successful wildly successful there are fact, 67,000 people playing destiny two at two in the morning I think eastern time there are 863 people playing division two. They literally going on five times more people playing destiny two right this minute then have quite the division two in its highest peak and current hour on speed now grant that it’s probably playable via another launcher by splitting the numbers, but let’s be fair. Most people play all their games on steam now for PC, so they can have launcher to start them all the division object failure they fucked up whatever chemistry they had going in the division one they just fucked it up in the division too, and everybody left there weren’t nearly as people in the first place after getting screwed on the division two i.e. it’s coming out incomplete. I mean literally not like incomplete from oh it’s a live service game so it’s going to be incomplete type of concept, but literally the final chapter of the story so we couldn’t finish developing our characters. They literally shipped it without all of the main story included. They would be stupid to try and put out another iteration of this game because it would never sell everybody good to be waiting to see how things turned out, which is what the way destiny do the final shape highly I mean like a clamp leading shooter tell the pain the player being hesitant to re-order that’s why destiny due the final got delayed because it wasn’t ready because they were trying to string along and get more free orders especially consoles where there’s very little chance to get a refund i.e. once you start downloading the game and playing it. You can’t get a refund to get a refund and after the last couple of things they put out the little has but it still has 67,000 people getting ready to play the final millions of players every day the divisions lucky never reached 1 million players in the division two at day ever in history get you all spilled you’re gonna get the division. It will be another DLC if anything that will be required if you wanna advance your character level? They’ll be a level of some kind of increasing score, something that they probably learn from blizzard with the old days true I mean the old days when actor would require you to buy the DLC or get left behind by your friends who did buy it pay that nobody is going to destiny. Weren’t a good game like a class action shooterit would’ve failed as well back then best me too. It almost did at lunch.

    Play almost never in any franchise if I ever seen more gullible people OK the division one was the pinnacle of this game. The division two was a failure. I’m not saying they didn’t make money. I’m saying nobody is playing it. It’s a failure. Nobody wants to play it no longevity they ruined PVP and the dark song the whole allure of the dark zone was for one nonstop PVP so put everybody wants to do it in the same room that’s what he wanted, well I shouldn’t say the you’ll confuse it with that division whatever everybody in the same room and we fought for hours and hours and days and days I mean for some people that was the endgame that was all of it the division two splits the dark zone and three chunks turns it into Candyland makes it all casual player can go in there and get some Kelvin grab an item that doesn’t need to be extractedinto another where you might get attacked by other players then Dear progression system that makes every bit of clear out this moment you get a new bit of gear. Do you have to get all the way to the end? We’re getting in all the Maxwell pieces before you can even really start trying to build. The game is a failure and the concept that they’re going to waste money making more of this game. It’s Ludacris their voice smoke up your ass to keep you next to the cash shop, Rille dropper DLC, but the concept of division three that will never make it to market
