is it easy to play solo?

[Mr. Pink]

im thinking about trying destiny, ive never played it before.. is it solo friendly or is it better to try and find friends to play with?

[UmaMusume Enjoyer]

It´s always better with friends. Some activities are matchmade, some need pre-made teams.
Problem is new player experience is considered to be really bad. And not having someone to show you the ropes often repel a good amount of new players from the enjoyable chunks of the game.

ive always played solo sometimes with friends but mainly solo with like 600+ hours on steam and 1000 on stadia before that shutdown

Started playing last year, been playing solo from start, had no problems so far, for dungeons, etc, I use lfg discord groups, pretty easy to find a team.

[DerpPig]

everything other then raids can be solo'd, friends are highly recommended

nah, Im completely new, never touched 1 or 2 until recently. It is a very good game for newbies. Lot of guides out there that help you along the way

There used to be alot of more fun content before they removed it and replaced it with the seasonal content, i miss the narrative of the stories, now its like a few hours if that of subpar story with 20+ hours of mindless grinding.

Alot of the earlier stuff is very solo friendly, but the more recent content has been needlessly challenging with the rewards being the same.......very crap, it just isn't worth doing, unless you relish dying multiple times just got some glimmer and an item you will most likely just dismantle.

But it is true what they say, you will enjoy it better if you have a fire team of IRL friends.

no-exotic missions are 3x difficulty, challenges can involve anything not soloable upto pvp content.

[senrign]

i mean if you mean solo as in by yourself in the activity, that's gonna take some time for you to get used to because some content can be really challenging solo. but if you mean without friends while lfg'ing then sure. That's how i've been playing this game for so long.

[Unstable WiFI/No Mic/English]

I am a mainly solo player except when it comes to "desperate measures" of farming the loot before it disappears. Or watching the explosions in patrol.

[Bdestiny]

I have almost 1500 hours in D2. A least 1000 hours is played solo. You can do all exotic missions/dungeons solo. Only thing you cant do solo is raids. Even hardest nightfalls (grandmaster) can be done solo.

just get a strand titan, u can solo everything :3

There is content that suggests a group in every campaign. The game will find you a PUG however. Even those generally except for raids you can attempt solo.

I can´t say for you, but my all my five friends who got the game in 2022 say otherwise. They quit before even getting to even try dungeons or even strikes because how boring the experience was.

I joined in 2019 where the new player experience was actually still quite engaging, and yes I love it. But one could only like the game if they are trying to actually like the game. Without certain tolerance to the game´s flaw, it´s just really expensive shooter to get into.
