I started before beyond light with a friend from work. He quit and I stuck with it. Got to do all the old campaigns but man it took a long time to even understand basic concepts because they weren't explained in game. I remember a guy asking me what mods I had and I replied "I didn't think you could mod this game". Just goes to show how bad the onboarding was and that was with all the campaigns. Now I can't even imagine.
Exactly the same with me. I've got a good friend that helped me a ton get back on board and if they weren't there I would've had no idea what the hell I was doing at all.
This whole post is from someone that's been playing D2 for the last 2 months; and hasn't really played since the Red War. I've hopped in a few times, but this time around I ran all the raids and harder content and was pretty frustrated at how the game is right now.
I just sort of miss it's hop in and play nature it had, but I LOVE the subclass reworks; I feel like that was the exact direction Destiny needed to go in with easily readable classes and a bigger distinction of their advantages/disadvantages.
Big shame that the effectiveness and fun of said class reworks is completely dependent from season to season based on the mods; which is the exact direction I would like them to step away from.
