All the NPCs always tell you what a great guy you are and that they never could have done it without you! For **** sake! The rest of the game is the same D1 RNG and mission grind as always. The new Tower is more interesting than the old, but you have to walk endlessly to do what you came for. In Warframe you can do most of your chores on board the ship, without loading into an MMO town. MMOs do it because you walk into a bigger world mostly seamlessly, while in D2 you still go to orbit. No walking out of the gate into the world.
    I guess the raid will be great again and that is the only thing really unique and goid about Destiny. It's all about finding 5 other people playing the raid to get top tier loot. Something they blew in TTK and won't this time. Since loot is RNG, you have to do it over and over again. Pull that lever sucker! PvP was what kept me doing D1 for a long time, because it was a blast with all the super abilities, but now it's a typical primaries only fight that some other titles do better. Bungie also has still not invested in dedicated servers and uses a P2P hybrid that sucks. That's why they kept it to 4vs4 battles this time. You really only need this game, if you are a D1 addict. All in all, D2 is the same slotmachine paired with an FPS D1 was.    … Expand

    The soundtrack (which is by far my favorite aspect of the game) is so stellar it’s jarring. The audio in general (from guns to a planet’s ambient soundscape) is immersive and suiting.

    The various environments are enchanting yet properly exhibit the magnitude of an enormous sci-fi war. Most “skyboxes” look glorious, though extensively littering the playable sandbox with innumerable crates/boxes and foliage still does not successfully hide how barren it can sometimes feel. Regardless, the landscape is a considerable improvement over vanilla Destiny.

    Level design is, overall, an upgrade from the first Destiny; although it still could use some renovations – objective routes could be even clearer, and, in my opinion, arenas could be even more interactive (this includes player controlled hazards/vehicles/turrets/environmental platforms) and further optimized to fully utilize a guardian’s abilities/mobility (more scenic parkour/platforming segments).

    Nearly all instances of voice acting matched the persona of their characters and was delivered quite well (looking at you Nathan Fillion).

    Gunplay, which is nearly completely identical to the first Destiny, is topnotch. Responsive, intuitive, and visually appealing (with respects to controller capabilities); it shines with a AAA polish.

    Negatives:
    The enemy A.I. is appalling. Perhaps the game’s MMO element creates a bit of lag inhibiting their awareness, or maybe they were designed to be extra passive as to make players feel super stealthy, but repetitively dancing a few inches behind them really makes me feel as though they aren’t really the threat that the story tries to convince me of. The pathing is equally horrendous (watching 100+ enemies funneling through a tight corridor to seemingly blind fire worse than bad guys from a Schwarzenegger film made me feel both humored and disappointed). The impression of engagements was anything but engaging.

    Post Taken King, most developments of “core gameplay” in Destiny’s sequel seemed fairly minimal. Really should expect more with a $60 price tag (as opposed to cheaper DLC) – particularly because there was certainly room for notable improvement (even from a creative standpoint, like completely new alternative classes).

    I did not find the “grind” too enjoyable. The monotony of easily slaying abysmal A.I. became a killjoy, especially after completing the story missions. Though the recent raid was fun, it came a bit late, and was not nearly a good enough payoff for the hours it took plowing through the same public events whilst praying to the RNGod’s for something beneficial. The threat of boredom is tenfold to solo players.

    The writing, from the plot to the dialogue, was unoriginal, tacky, and meek. I would assume most are content that there is at least an attempt at a story in Destiny 2 since there was an obvious lack of one in the first, but that doesn’t excuse how meager it is— being relatively better (story wise) does not inherently make it good. I’ve read plenty of free fan stories and theories discussing the Destiny universe that were leagues better than the oversimplified clichéd nothingness we paid for.

    Narrow F.O.V. 30 FPS. (Console capabilities really do hurt the potential experience in this regard).

    Various bugs (i.e. invisible enemies/players)/glitches/crashes.

    Aesthetically, endgame characters never really looked as “cool” as I wanted them to (nor as they probably could be) even with the shaders. I often felt various enemies looked much better than I ever could.

    Microtransactions/Consumable shaders. Greedy, unnecessary, and ultimately makes some consumers feel skeptical of being treated wallet-friendly by Bungie/Activision in the future.

    Story was much too short (took me 4.5/5ish hours casually). I’m expecting expensive DLC to satisfy that shortcoming.

    I would’ve liked to have experienced a newer and wider assortment of enemies/bosses.

    On PVP: some gun balancing issues, p2p is suboptimal, I’m not sure why 6v6 had to be dropped (even as an option) entirely, and arenas could be enhanced artistically (perhaps even redesigned for better combat flow).

    Conclusion: I was absolutely looking forward to purchasing this game on PC (despite my better judgment). Now I could care less, the console copy is enough.    … Expand

    Also just like Destiny 1, the game is STILL locked at 30fps. Why in the world do developers think 30fps is still perfectly okay for a first person shooter? It's not. It's jarring. If I play any number of other FPS games (Battlefield, Overwatch, CoD, RE7, Doom, Rainbow Six: Siege, etc) and then come back to Destiny 2, there shouldn't be a long period where my eyes need to adjust in order to enjoy it.    … Expand

    Secondly, the levelling system is just rubbish. 1 Skill Point acquired per level only to be presented with ONE option to use said still point. Why not just unlock the ability as you level as the skill points are utterly useless.

    The "global" events, whilst more frequent are the same every time. no variation or change. just the same boring crap. Again Bungie getting players to grind it out like a boss to get find anything decent.

    The crafting quality is literally basic as hell. On top of this, the entire Buy/Sell with suppliers is limited to basic generic items and god forbid they offer you more than 5 options at a time, most of which you wouldn't even consider if you were in desperate need.

    On a positive note, the graphics are truly stunning, especially in the cut scenes. some really terrific work here.

    Overall a very rinse and repeat effort here. One for the die hard Destiny fans. For those looking for a little more in both mental stimulus and storyline, this is not the game for you.    … Expand

    The game's story begins with the last city on earth being invaded by the oversized alien species known as the cabal. They take over the city, capture the traveler, and take away your powers (or light as everyone calls it). But by some miraculous chance you find a fragment of the traveler outside the city and get your powers back, so it is now up to you to fight against the cabal and take back the city.

    A good story but very cliche. I never really liked MMO's to be honest because the game never treats itself like one. As you play the story you meet up with Zavala, Ikora, and Cayde-6 and they treat your character like he is the only guardian left when there are thousands wandering the worlds. Nevertheless, I enjoyed playing through it much more than the first game.

    Engrams in this game don't need to be deciphered unless they are legendary (purple) or exotic (yellow). Common (white), uncommon (green), and rare (blue) can all be equipped once picked up. Loot is done better in this game as well.

    The only things I really didn't like were the fact I didn't get my sparrow til after I beat the whole campaign, so if you pick this game up you will be walking from one location to another for a majority of the game unless you find an abandoned enemy vehicle.

    The crucible was also something that was a disappointment. Instead of having game modes to pick from, you pick either quickplay or competitive and it puts you in a random game mode. This works for games like Overwatch but not this game. Players always leave when they get a mode they don't like.

    Ships still serve 0 purpose other than to be eye candy during loading screens. I mean seriously if you are not gonna have space battles then do not bother wasting valuable time on stuff like that when you could be using it to make a better game. I don't know why Bungie didn't think to just use teleporters or even something like a Stargate to move us around from planet to planet with loading screens in between.

    So Destiny 2 is an okay game but needs some work done on it. So get on it Bungie!    … Expand

    The raid is awesome and beautiful and huge , but theirs only one boss, but the puzzles are great , and I like a challenge and I am telling you, the raid is weird , bu ofcourse cool
    Now trials of the nine , well its better then ever , the 4v4 works , the map is awesome and the difficulty got nerved , wich is good in my case , because I only went 1 time flawless in destiny 1 ( year 2 ).
    the only thing i gotta admid is that the new trials weapons look pretty boring , but (the one i have ) are very good and op
    Oh yeah I forgot to mention the microtransactions , bungie made it now even worse with the new 1 time use shaders
    But don't worry the glimmer cap has increased so I can buy shaders on every moment I want to , but it still sucks in my opinion.
    Destiny 2 is after almost 2 weeks still awesome

    The campaign is good but not perfect , the enemy AI is **** and almost the entire campaign is easy as hell, but its still really fun with in my opinion enough variety ( per example , riding in a tank).
    The story is great , only a little bit repeat of ' we can do it so, get your ass up '
    ,infact destiny 2 has more story already in the first mission then destiny 1 combined
    The patrol and open world is amazing , they could have not done that better , there is literally everywhere something to do ( public events , adventures, finding chests,......)
    However , is it just me or does nessus and io look almost the same?
    Now pvp , its very fun but watch out because their are now a lot of teamshots wich is annoying, pvp is also now way more competitive wich means you will have to adapt your playstile a bit
    I wich there was at least 1 mode of 6v6 but missing,I do not

    Overall destiny 2 deserves the 8 for now , I hope the dlc's bring much content and exotics!!

    EDIT 10 october 2017

    Destiny 2 is running out of content if you did your milestones your pretty much done for the week unless you still need raid and trials of the nine gear
    Iron banner just dropped but its nothing special
    After this week i realised a few things that should be added or be different
    - grenade launchers are useless , only a couple are good in pve and mediocre at best in pvp , I ask for an extra blast radius and impact
    - public events are now repetitive as hell more should be added even a more difficult level of public events
    --the strike playlist is very weak ,most of them are fun ( especially the pyramidian strike), but there are way to few
    - we got trials of the nine , nightfall strikes , raids, why are there not extra hardcore stuff?
    I dropped the score to a 6 just because the endgame is very weak
    Because it is focused on these god damn casual players
    Its still fun , but bungie please add good dlc's and not something like the dark below    … Expand

It was very short, boring and doesn't give you any interest in any of the characters whatsoever. This time however, its the other way round. The campaign in this new instalment is definitely an improvement from the first one. The characters are more interesting (and funny), starring Nolan North as the Guardian (big fan of his work), but the gunplay feels smoother, it is less repetitive and it has a much more engaging narrative and amazing graphics. So what is it that really lets this game down for me? The multiplayer. This is a big factor for me because once I complete the story I will be ready to spend the rest of my time with this game on the multiplayer like I did in the first Destiny as I did not give a s**t about the story. Unfortunately for me, that was simply NOT the case. When playing the open beta I was not impressed with the multiplayer. Was it the imbalanced classes, the boring game modes, the short and boring rounds or the broken mechanics such as the class abilities or the stiff turning controls? It was all of them! Though I still went and bought the game mainly for the campaign and because I though that this was just the beta stages of the multiplayer. I knew there would be more maps, classes and game modes which it does offer but all the problems are still there. All of the classes are very imbalanced with some being overpowered and others being underpowered (for example the Hunter is OP while the new Warlock is very underpowered). The entire game itself is a combination of Call of Duty Infinite Warfare and Halo 5. I hated Infinite Warfare and if you did than you will not enjoy this. I did enjoy Halo 5 however. In the first Destiny there was something in the multiplayer that made these two combinations work, with this game however it feels very wrong. Is it because of the futuristic entries into the COD series we've been getting such as Infinite Warfare or was it the disappointment with Halo 5. I could spend an hour of your time saying everything that is wrong or doesn't work in the multiplayer in detail, but to summarise it, it is average at best and boring, frustrating and imbalanced at worst. And for some reason the gunplay in the singleplayer feels really good, even when you team up with other players, but in the multiplayer, the Warlocks guns for example are P-Shooters. Either that or the enemies I fight are bullet sponges. When I say the multiplayer is frustrating its in times such as when I get killed by an enemy I should've killed because I started shooting them first with most of my bullets landing on their body. They obviously had more armour than I did, but with a better gun at the same time that is capable at getting headshots easier, which is probably why they were able to retaliate and kill me, but like I said the classes and weapons are so imbalanced and the abilities are so inconsistent. Overall I would not recommend buying this game just for the multiplayer unless you love the futuristic shooters such as Infinite Warfare, than I would say yes, but wait. If you wanna buy this game for the single player, even then I wouldn't recommend it. As much as I enjoyed this games campaign, it was annoying how you must always be connected to the internet even when you just want to play solo. That was the same problem that the original Destiny had. The campaign is about no more than 10 hours long. If you wanna buy this game for the single player than I suggest wait a couple of months for a couple of price drops, than you should pick it up as it is definitely worth paying attention to unlike the first destiny. It seems that the game got almost everything right with the single player improving from the original in almost every way, but they just ruined the multiplayer for me. The multiplayer in the first Destiny was not perfect but was very fun and enjoyable. I am disappointed how instead of taking everything good about the original Destiny's multiplayer and make it better, they almost completely f**ked it up, but at least flag capture was untouched, which is good because its my favourite in this game but bad because I wished they would've improved on it because I found it only decent in the first Destiny. I just hope that either they make some major changes to the multiplayer throughout the course of next year or that Destiny 3 will do everything they did right with the multiplayer from Destiny 1 and not like Destiny 2 and that the campaign is just as good as it is here, because so far, once I fully finish the campaign, this is a game that I will forget about a couple of weeks later until either I trade it in or until the multiplayer is reworked. If it is, then I may do a re-review and re-evaluate my opinion on the multiplayer because so far I am NOT impressed what so ever. This game is definitely another disappointment just like the original but in the opposite way.… Expand

    This is a MMO masquerading as a single player experience. Every NPC talks about how special you are and how you are the only one that can help, which is hard to believe when there are dozens of other players running around you that were told the same thing. If I had been looking for a multiplayer experience, my score would be higher, but the single player experience is disappointingly lacking.

    The weapon system is also good but compared to d1 more focused on pvp. Bosses in the normal missions are fun, in the strikes just complete damage sponges with the lowered damage output it's annoying.
    I'm gonna trust bungie that the raid is gonna be great (like most of the d1 ones).
    Skill trees are significantly simplified. It's a good in the way of having an optimized build it's bad because of individualisation. It would be better if you could just use whatever you want (like in d1) than having the "optimized" build.
    It's also sad that all classes only got one "new" subclass the rest are basically the same as the old.

    A good game, but needs fixes. The story is good, and so are the graphics and gameplay. The newer areas were all detailed and awesome. The downside are the weapons and armor. They feel either underpowered or overpowered, and are too hard to get. It makes a good game not as good as it could be if it was fixed.

    Macht mir großen Spaß. Der PvE Teil. Der Zwang zu PvP und das mit Abstand schlechteste Matchmaking sorgen regelmäßig für Kotze bei mir im Mund. Meide ich wie die Pest. Im Grunde kann ich das Spiel empfehlenb wegen toller Arbeit die drin steckt. Für PvP gibt's bessere Spiele.

    Destiny 2 is a tough nut to judge. It's one of them games which you really want to like, and that looked very promising at launch, but then went completely south. I consider the predecessor to be one of the best online games out there. We had so much fun in Destiny from a social view. And surely we got promised by Bungie that a lot of things would be improved - and some things did - but inDestiny 2 is a tough nut to judge.

I consider the predecessor to be one of the best online games out there. We had so much fun in Destiny from a social view. And surely we got promised by Bungie that a lot of things would be improved - and some things did - but in the end we got a game that treats their fans badly. And it just keeps getting worse. Paywalls, progression mechanics and feedback sets the example of how a game shouldn't be managed.

    Now there's that. And then there's the fact that it's still a well written game, that trademark feel of a Bungie shooter and the embedded clan support that favours friends playing with friends. But the truth is that Destiny 2 is less of a grind than the first game, you could absolutely go Platinum trophy within a month if that's your thing, and players are leaving at a fast pace. Surely, there's stuff to do still, like wandering around the beautiful hubs shooting random stuff and using spacemagic. But you'll soon realise that this game doesn't let you play it the way you choose to, but it prompts you to play it the way that Bungie see it fit to play. You'll find yourself looking for the weapon of the time that actually works playing against others with, or the stuff that actually lets you slip by the timer of a Nightfall (which is ridiculous and simply put not fun) or you can find yourself on a loosing streak in PvP due to issues that the developer haven't even adressed yet. And yet it's a solid well developed game in it's core, but in there you'll also find a conflict and flaws and a developer who doesn't seem to give a damn about the player community. If you're a griever or a troll. This is the game for you.

    At this time I haven't picked up on the first expansion. But you should if you want to play the game for the first time, because you see - the developers have locked up basic endgame content behind owning that expansion. It's essentially consumer rape. And of course they did it like that, because like I said. They don't give a damn.    … Expand

    Destiny 2 took some steps forward from Destiny, but took some steps back. The solo story is somehow MUCH weaker than the first game, but the leveling/reputations system is much more streamlined. They give you more reasons to do all the side events on planets, but of course you lose those reasons pretty quickly once you're geared up for endgame content.

And they finally give you access to area maps! But most changes they made were minor and it's really just the same game. I wonder if the budget all went to the incredible voice acting talents they've got in this game. That would explain the lack of real changes.

    A fake mmo shell hiding a surprisingly antisocial shooter. Decent (not great) pvp but without dedicated servers. Counter-intuitive gear grinds that slow to a crawl very quickly. A single player campaign that appears to have it's difficulty set to negative 3 or 4 (Seriously, you could probably just punch your way through it). A plot that makes you the player literally irrelevant by the end. Hours of idling in the worst facsimile of a "social area" that I've ever seen in a video game. If you love any of these things, this is the game for you!

    That being said, I love grinds, and I know I'll be playing the heck out of this game for a long time. I'm just going to hate myself a little for it.    … Expand

    The problem with this game is the 30fps cap for consoles. Outher then that I like it alot. It works to play the PVE content but PVP is a complete mess with 30 fps. Someone made a comparison to Golden Eye on Nintendo 64. Its a good comparison.

    When I first heard of the new Warframe Lite 2.0, I was very excited.
    It's the best AAA cashgrab i've ever played. Sure, it's an improvement on Destiny, but it's an improvement of vanilla Destiny, not the game we played at the end. Shooting, looting, graphics, and soundtracks are the best aspects of this game. The problem isn't Bungie adding nothing, it's them replacing everything.

    The AI is terrible. Enemies have a strange strategy of walking up to you to be a bigger target. The PvP has no direction, trying to be CS, Halo, and COD at the same time. It simply relies on teamshooting, with none of the thrilling speed-demon tactics that pull us in from the first game. All we hope for is that Bungie uses this cashgrab to better fund their next projects, but most likely it'll end up as promotion money for Cayde-6, the unnecessary comedic relief of Destiny. Until there's a discounted version with all the DLCs, you shouldn't buy this game.    … Expand

    it seems like all the big game review site must of been paid off, cause this is simply a DLC to destiny 1. Calling it Destiny 2 is a bit of a head scratcher.

The story mission aren't plentiful enough to even get you to max level, you have to do other missions or public events at certain points in the game as you will not meet the level requirements to proceed with the super limited story. There are the same old patrol missions as Destiny 1, and now they have the adventure missions, which are essentially just patrol missions that involve killing X, collecting X, go to X etc. The strikes aren't any more interesting than the original ones in Destiny 1. The crucible has arguably be lessened by the 4 v 4play type with smaller maps. No new character classes have been made in the 3 years since the original. Some of the new planets are very small and have no real reason to go to once the story missions are completed. Also, why the hell aren't there quick change weapon load outs? What about using one of the D-pad buttons to change to an alternate loadout so you dont have to go into the menu and do it in the middle of a boss fight? I suppose that would take away one of the emote buttons, but what an awesome thing that would be.

    Sure there is quick travel now, but why the hell wasn't there in the first game? It's nothing to celebrate something that has been industry standard for years and years. It's not a plus, it's just not a minus now. Weapon types are essentially the same but now your weapons dont level up with use, again something i dont really like and feels like it detracts from the rpg level up elements. They still don't have proper in game group finding for raids or nightfalls, you can now tag along with a guild group who is looking for another player to fill their ranks.

    Overall calling this game a sequel is a pretty tough pill to swallow. It doesn't bring anything new to the table and feels very half assed. If you haven't played the original Destiny then pick that up on the cheap and enjoy the game.    … Expand

    Bungie really had something special with Destiny 1. The sequel, while built on an apparently new and improved game engine, feels like it has little to offer beyond simple good gunplay (even that doesn't feel quite as good as D1.)

The lack of hardcore endgame content is a huge stain on the entire franchise, and the overall changes to loot progression (token slot system), combined with an overall 'balancing' of power level (power level hardly matters for most activities) has resulted in a game that, while exciting and captivating at first, quickly loses most of it's steam once you finish the campaign.

    Whereas previously in Destiny 1, reaching end-game felt as though you were opened up to a variety of new, rewarding activities, Destiny 2 offers little to nothing.

    If you've never played Destiny 1 before, I may recommend picking up this game. You'll probably enjoy the campaign, playing some patrol, running the strikes, and getting a taste for Crucible. If you're a long-time D1 veteran, it's quite likely you'll find yourself disappointed and lacking in content.

    I no longer find myself excited for Tuesdays anymore ('reset day' for Destiny). I log on and stare at the Director (menu) for a couple minutes before sighing and putting on another game.

    I hope the DLC fixes the glaring endgame issues the game has, but at the same time, I'm really not happy with the idea of having to pay for DLC in order to experience the "complete game." Bungie took us down this road with D1; it's time for them to get things together.    … Expand

    It's Decent, not good, not bad. If you dont have time to go **** and carve your way through a rough learning curve, Destiny 2 is not a terrible choice of game. It doesnt make it quality nevertheless. Raids are extremely nice, but of course the problem comes with finding 5 other who are able to be competent and available during your limited gaming window.. At least for me.

    Whatever your opinion is on Bungie's IP Destiny, the fact is that as a self described FPS looter shooter, Destiny 2 fails.

Supposedly there was only an 18 month period for the rollout of the now sequel. This would explain the complete lack of content and loss of essential features that were available in year 3 Destiny 1, coming into D2. Also an over use of previous assets, reused content, no variation in enemy types, no new subclasses, and all around no justification for a new release. For any veteran Destiny player, this was not as much a surprise knowing the state that D1 was released in. The release of Destiny 2, however, was an even more egregious sin, being that Bungie had 3 years behind their belt in the form of player feedback for D1, and clear improvements made over the games lifespan. This was not a whim of ignorance, but rather a deliberate manipulation of the player base into believing that Bungie had their best interests in mind. Every action taken in making this sequel was to fatten Bungie's wallets and pull back the amount of work that the developer had to roll out, to the detriment of the player base. Coming into yr2 of D2, the game will potentially be back to its former glory after a year of catching up, Bungie being millions of dollars richer in the process. Shame on them.… Expand

    Even if Bungie backtracks on some of these horrendous missteps, there’s evidence that the dev team is either flailing around without a clear idea of the experience they want to present, or even worse, they’re happy to offer the least amount of mediocre content possible until the player base starts pushing back. When free-to-play titles like Warframe and Let it Die seem monumentally more generous and offer vastly more entertainment value than a triple-A sixty dollar release built with a budget large enough to feed whole continents, it’s clear that something has gone horribly wrong.

    It’s this sense of streamlined player experience that really defines Destiny 2. Where the first game had you grinding for hours just to experience increasingly diminishing returns, this is a sequel that trims away its processor’s frustrations, firmly putting fun first.

    Destiny 2 is tough to compare to other shooters or games, but it is evidently a better title than part 1. The campaign is longer, the progression makes more sense, the structure is more satisfying and the sheen and splendor on the various planets entices even more. Destiny is comparable with its predecessor after the add-on The Taken King, and is therefore a more solid foundation for the coming months of content.
