I need a replacement game for Destiny 2 with really good and difficult endgame (Does not need to be true MMO)
Destiny 2 has been my MMO of choice for quite a while now, with over 500 hours in the game. What I loved most about Destiny 2 was the endgame activities: raiding, Grandmaster Nightfalls, weekly PvP events, and that constant feeling of having difficult content to work toward.
I’m trying to find another game that can at least scratch that same endgame itch for me, but so far the choices haven’t really clicked.
Final Fantasy XIV feels a little too story-focused for what I’m looking for, Guild Wars 2 feels a bit too aimless, and I’m not even really sure whether The Elder Scrolls Online has a dedicated endgame loop that people actively grind long-term.
I’ve also been looking into Remnant 2 and Remnant 1, but those games feel a little iffy to commit to because they don’t seem to have a true “live-service MMO-style” endgame. It mostly looks like you’re farming cool builds and replaying content through matchmaking rather than participating in an evolving endgame ecosystem.
So I was hoping you guys could recommend me literally any game with a satisfying and genuinely difficult endgame activity. It doesn’t even have to be multiple activities — honestly, even one really good repeatable endgame mode would be enough for me.
Main things I’m looking for:
- mechanically difficult PvE
- coordinated group content
- repeatable progression
- aspirational difficulty
- and ideally a community that still actively engages with the content
Right now I'm enjoying HD2 diff 10 runs and Far Far West, ad well as other small-scale PvE heavy games like Darktide and MH Wilds if that helps you in any way.
Doesn’t necessarily have to be an MMO either. Just something that gives that “high-end Destiny activity” feeling.
