Destiny 2 on PC Will Have Restrictions for Specific Applications
In a recent blog post, the developer explained how they would regulate third-party applications. Clarifying that for them to make the game as fair as possible for everyone, they will try to blacklist third-party applications from inputting code into the game client.
Overlays that display frame rates, as well as other performance statistics from programs such as EVGA Precision XOC, MSI Afterburner, and Fraps, will not be compatible at all.
Bungie confirmed that third-party applications that are dependent on overlays would not support Destiny 2 on PC. Although this won’t be an issue for the actual aps, the blog post does state that both Discord and Mumble’s “who’s talking” and visual notification features won’t work.
In regards to gameplay capture software, methods such as Elgato, AVerMedia, and dedicated streaming PCs will be supported in full screen mode, in addition to NVIDIA Shadowplay and AMD ReLive. Unfortunately, OBS and XSplit will not work in full screen. but they will work in windowed mode (and borderless windowed) in both Screen Capture and Window Capture modes; while similar applications like Dxtory and Razer Cortex will have similar limitations.
If you would like more information about the game, be sure to time out of your day to check out our hands-on preview, our impressions on the crucible from the beta, as well as some new gameplay footage. Destiny 2 will launch on September 6th, 2017 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One while the PC version will launch on October 24th.

K, that's all I gotta say to them. There's no advantage in having overlays. I think that Bungie has been playing on console's all their life and haven't been brought up to speed on what overlays on PC really do. It's not that I care that I can't see my friends ugly face everytime he opens his mouth though, tbh this might be an upgrade.

Supervisor Good thing i will be getting it for Xbox one
Good thing I got a PS4 but to the point I can't use OBS or should I say people can't use OBS which sucks.

-Silky going to be annoying for people like me that stream and make videos but Ill have to find another way.
What are you talking about? It mentions full support for people who stream. Your overlays in streaming don't go into the game itself, but on another program.
Personally, I don't see why they did this. My only thought could be potential cheating, but they even got rid of supporting large name companies. I don't see what they mean by "Making the game as fair as possible." When anyone can legally, and for free, download such programs. Oh well. I hope this one is better than the first.
