I recently made a video about Destiny 2 controversy regarding the hidden level scaling Bungie had implemented in their game. I tried ranking for 'Destiny 2 xp limiting', 'Destiny 2 xp controversy' and 'Destiny 2 xp scaling.

Now If I would want to have those keywords in my title, I'd need to have a title like this:
Destiny 2 xp limiting // Destiny 2 xp controversy // Destiny 2 xp scaling.

That's an awful lot of repeating the same words and just, a bad looking title in general. Do you think I should focus on simply 1 tag in the title? Combining these is either impossible or just creates an overly cluttered, not very attractive title ...

Any advice on the matter? How would you guys handle this type of situation?

Each word once is fine. Then use complimentary words afterwards like ps4 Xbox one pc gaming etc to ride other big video and topics

Use the title that you think most people will be looking for, or you can do something like this "XP Scaling | Destiny 2 Controversy." Fill everything else in the description and tags.
