This is a brief review of Destiny 2 Edge of Fate, along with an overview of the Portal system. It has a strong focus on the mechanical nature, covering the flaws, annoyances, and issues that are a big part of the communities discussion at the moment.

For this review I played the PlayStation 5 version, and earned up to level 449. It does cover the grind to 449, along with the various events that took place since release. I also tried to limit spoilers, but did opt to include a few more than usual given how long this review took.

I'm also sorry about the amount of menu video content. I tried to add B Roll where I could, but unfortunately most of this expansion comes down to flaws located in that section.
