Appreciate your positivity and optimism but this game is more and more becoming a full time job or a chore as opposed to fun! They really need to work on the fun factor and less grind / frustration.
With this new "Seasonal Journey" system it sounds alot like you won't be able to gain battle pass tiers by gaining SHD levels anymore. You will be FORCED to do these challenges. That is NOT a upgrade, but a downgrade. Please correct me, if wrong, because that is how it sounds to me (watching around YT) and in this case I don't want to be right.
This is how it was on the PTS yes but we don't know if that was the only way. Basically the season pass now has season xp and this can be earned through journey and priority objectives. I would imagine all areas of the game will allow for season xp to be earned once released. They may push higher XP through these and to be fair you will want to do them for the mods anyway but nobody knows yet. I could be wrong and the journey and priority objectives might be the only way to earn season XP but I can't see that lasting for long if it was the case.
@GCROCK Season XP has always existed it was just always interlinked with SHD levels. All they've done now is separate them and gave Season XP it's own icon. It is my concern that this new system will keep them separate in the name of "new."" As for the Global Modifiers (GMs)... I already run 3-4 directives at all times because I'm rewarded with more XP for doing so. These GMs give us a small buff, but mainly buff the enemy and grant no extra rewards or XP for doing so, as of now. So, with that being said, there's no reason for me to keep these GMs on over the directives I already run. (If nothing changes, I'll probably just keep it off.) Judging by your final paragraph, it seems we agree that if they do away with being able to earn Season XP by gaining SHD levels, then we've got to raise hell. This was and still is my main concern because as you said we don't know since this is just a PTS, but, for both of our sakes and the rest of the player base, I hope you're right, brother.
Those modifiers look interesting. However, if there are no rewards for running them.....they will be off

Journey layout and concept nearly mimic the Specialization Field Research tasks/objectives.
Enjoyed the 24h! Aligning with the PTS was perfection as you got to show us a in depth look at what awaits. Looking forward to next season.
I need one more wony arcana card 21/22 is it bugged or is it a rare spawn cause I looked everywhere for it
Is it true we will no longer have global events - like Golden Bullet?
Gloval events will still happen. No more leagues though
I haven’t been this excited about upcoming updates in The Division 2 in a very long time. Can’t wait!
Link in bio 😏
This is not going to work. Is annoying as hell and is the only way to get seasonal XP. The ONLY WAY
Reminds me a lot of destiny 2s seasonal modifiers and their artifacts
