    Lack of content. You would think they would of fixed the number one complaint from the 1st game. I have a feeling they will take the same approach with cash grabs on DLCS "expansions"

    Well, where should I begin. This game is really better than it's predecessor, but that's all. It still has good gunplay but many of the flaws of Destiny one. Almost endless corridors where absolut nothing happens. You walk those corridors for minutes and eventually something might happen but most time, nothings happens. Well your "ghost" tells you things on the way, but also very rarely.Well, where should I begin. This game is really better than it's predecessor, but that's all. It still has good gunplay but many of the flaws of Destiny one. Almost endless corridors where absolut nothing happens. You walk those corridors for minutes and eventually something might happen but most time, nothings happens. Well your "ghost" tells you things on the way, but also very rarely. Sometimes you can't even see a thing and you must guess where the way is (thx to HDR not even increasing the gamma level helps in these areas).

    Worst of all, there are campaign missions that send to to the same place you just left and walked minutes to get there. And than you see the same areas again but with more of the same enemies.

    Yes the design of the areas is interesting, but it all means nothing if there is no interaction with anything and nothing to do than just to walk through.

    Another thing is, this game requires a server connection, which is really strange, because the count of players you can meet is really restricted. And if you loose your connection right before the end of a campaign mission (and you walked a lot for that) you must restart the mission as soon as you have your connection back. And that happens far to often for a game that requires those servers. I really don't understand why they need the server-connection, because you are always in an instance hosted by your (or another players) console. The server should just be required for the initial player-connection (lobby) and the "city" (where you can "interact" with some more players but not mmo-like) but nothing more.

    Story-wise it is better than Destiny 1. Now it seems that your actions actually matter, but it is still more of the same. No attachment to any character, no characters you can build on, nothing personal, …
    Yes there is a dull story now but well… there is really nothing that can be spoiled.    … Expand

    Destiny 2 is a slightly better looking but dulled down version of Destiny 1. PvP is slow, tedious and just overall lackluster. Not to mention lacks diversity (game modes? private matches? Iron Banner that actually feels different than quick play?) The story isn't challenging at all, and the raid looks good but isn't as fun or rewarding to play as the old raids.

    What it's gets right.
    The Music is AMAZING, perhaps even better the second time around, but for some reason it reminds me of Halo in many cases, you'll have to listen to it to make the comparison.
    The shooting mechanics are once again satisfying and fun to control, but again it has a very similar feeling to Halo and even feels rather recycled and reused from last time. But not that distracting.
    The story is actually much more improved, containing actual interesting characters and they are actually memorable, hell I bought the game as soon as I could after Cayde-6's ad in which he's tutoring the three other guardians... You know which one it is.

    What it does wrong.
    Like I mentioned before some mechanics and aspects are clearly copy pasted from Destiny 1.
    The graphics look either the same at few points or worse most of the time, even Metro: Last Light, a game from 2013 looks way better. There's even this one texture that acts as a door for NPC's and it looks like absolute garbage. Also some of the planet's color palettes look very displeasing to the eyes.
    GRINDIIIIIIIIING! It sucks too because the grind isn't as invasive as Destiny 1, but also why on earth do you just give away Exotics during the campaign? But you have to earn Legendaries?! Why couldn't they just switch those two? Legendaries are less rare than Exotics anyways. But this way the grind feels pointless if you're going to just whore out these epic weapons and armor.
    What the hell was that ending!? The game ends after a very easy campaign, in which you can exploit the hunter Arcstrider's class (maybe they'll patch it later) to just destroy the last boss or ANY boss for that matter. Not only that but a new threat is revealed that SHOULD'VE been in this game but NOPE PAY another 20-30$ for the our new DLC! GIVE ME MONEY. It wouldn't even be a problem if the game earned it but it didn't! DLC should add on to a game, not fill in the blanks. So you got to pay more for the full experience, I ALREADY PAID 60$!

    But with all that said I'm still putting in hours to this game, looking for ways to find Exotics and Legendaries. I've spent almost 60 hours in the game, I may hate it from some angles or on a bad day but if I could spend that much time in a game... Then it must be doing something right. I also don't want to be too harsh to the game because it has many redeeming qualities so a 7 is what it's gonna get.    … Expand

    Don't trust the critics. Just because it is better than the first doesn't make it a good game. You will get Destiny 2 and love it - for a few hours at least. Once you hit level 20 and begin the grind for better gear you will see just how flawed this game is. The first thing that comes to my mind is how the strikes are 100% USELESS.

You will get Destiny 2 and love it - for a few hours at least. Once you hit level 20 and begin the grind for better gear you will see just how flawed this game is. The first thing that comes to my mind is how the strikes are 100% USELESS. Next to the raid, the best way to get gear in Destiny 1 was doing strikes. In D2, strikes are completely pointless. They will take you about 20 minutes to do and they reward you with one or two rares and a few tokens. Sometimes you can get a legendary or even an exotic from the chest - odds are low. But, get this. There are also public events that you can do. They take 5 minutes and give you a rare or two and a token and have the chance to give you a legendary or an exotic... So, public events take 1/3rd the time of the strike and reward you about the same. WHAT IS THE POINT IN DOING THE STRIKES. Then, the amount of duplicate gear you get is downright disgusting. In D2, they made legendaries and exotics easier to get than in D1. The problem with this is that you will get so. many. duplicates. You put in all this work just to get rewarded with something you got 5 times before. There is no sense of accomplishment.

    Now, the story is there and it is better than D1's. Not hard to accomplish that feat. The story is okay at the most - very repetitive. You will likely be pleased the first time around, but if you're planning on making three characters then doing the story will be a nightmare. There is no re-playablity in it. You're better off running around and doing public events FOR 5 HOURS to get to 20.

    Easily the biggest disappointment in 2017. There really is no good endgame here. I will not touch on the raid because I haven't done it. IMO, save your money or wait until a couple expansions come out before considering to buy. The game could have been a DLC for the first game and no one would be complaining one bit about it.    … Expand

They are heavily pushing microtransactions that walk the line of being pay-to-win. If you for some reason enjoyed the first Destiny then I'm certain you would enjoy this copy/paste supposed sequel that is not much more than a glorified, over-priced, DLC. But even then I would wait until the game goes 50% off before I would buy it. If you did not enjoy Destiny 1 then I highly suggest you not spend the money as you will just end up with buyers remorse when you realise this game is nothing more than an Activision & Bungie microtransaction/DLC money making attempt at a game.… Expand

There's a very short and boring story to play through featuring some characters from the original game, unfortunately they're not enough to save it even for die hard destiny fans as this game falls on the same mistakes as its predecessor, once you've finished the story all you have to look forward to is some linear fps action and grinding for gear similar to what you'd see in Gearboxes's game Borderlands, the endgame leaves you with few options such as Strikes which features 4 different areas on planets and a boss in hopes of getting better loot to increase your light level, The Crucible which puts players against each other in PvP combat and awards loot randomly not based on player performance at least from what i can see. Destiny 2 also has public events which are small events on a set planet taking around 5-15 minutes the events usually consist of killing certain in game mini bosses or destroying supplies. Patrols are objectives like scouting an area or killing enemies to collect drops not really offering much for rewards. Once a certain gear or Light level is a attained one of the only ways to increase it is to complete the games milestones which reset every week on Monday and can be completed in just a few hours with little effort before the player is forced to wait another week to progress any further. All in all Destiny 2 offers some decent visuals but the gameplay is a grind to get through followed by the repetitive grind required to progress any further i found it entertaining for about a day then it just got boring.… Expand

The Taken King inexplicably locked away end game content that was present in the original Destiny since launch. Bungie penalized millions of fans who didn’t immediately purchase the upgrade.

And once again, Bungie/Activision slap fans in their collective faces by releasing an addition that negates prior progression. The Taken King inexplicably locked away end game content that was present in the original Destiny since launch. Bungie penalized millions of fans who didn’t immediately purchase the upgrade. If players didn’t buy Taken King, their disks became paper weights.

    Bungie amps up the screwing over of fans in D2 by literally resetting everything. NOTHING players did in the original matters. They start fresh with puny guardians. Destiny 2 tells us 4 things about Bungie: 1) Its “10 year plan” was rubbish and outright marketing hype. 2) Bungie releases content that's not worth the admission price while penalizing fans. 3) It lacks the creativity and foresight to move beyond the cash grab DLC formula. 4) Bungie submits players to relentless grinding for paltry rewards.

    Die hard Destiny fans think D2 is great. The rest of us are left scratching our heads. Compared to The Elder Scrolls Online, Diablo 3, Neverwinter, and the still free-to-play Warframe, Destiny is the most anemic and potentially most expensive mmorpg game on consoles. So why do fans like it? Because it’s freakin easy. Destiny is accessible, but it lacks the depth and nuance of better mmo’s. Destiny is popular because it’s a decent first person shooter, a genre that excels on consoles. As an mmo, Destiny is pathetic. It has just enough meat to reel players in, but not enough to keep them on the line.

    Combat remains samey. Bungie kept the same 3 classes. Weapons are pretty much the same. And like the original, progression happens too fast. D2’s terrible pacing leads to excessively contrived difficulty spikes (Bungie slapped a timer on nightfall strikes). My character was nearly maxed out after a single session. Most players will achieve everything in under a week. Some in a single day. Many players I’ve encountered have already created second and third guardians. That’s exemplifies the problem: there isn’t enough to do, and activities are basic.

    Guardian customization remains unchanged from the original’s measly offerings. So all guardians look alike, again. The social mechanics are still inadequate. Players must go thru extraordinary lengths to mingle with others. Just two weeks after launch, most locations are fairly empty. Public events are often solitary experiences. Developers at Bungie are the only people on earth who believe the antisocial nature of Destiny helps the franchise.

    What else hasn’t changed in PVE? Well, just about everything. Guardians fight the same baddies they encountered in the original using the same weapons and same abilities. A half-assed campaign is all that distinguishes the two apart. It sucks. Its brevity alludes to rushed development and the final cutscene provides a glimpse of future DLC. The campaign is a peace offering, not a meaningful effort to expand the Destiny universe. And Bungie butchered it for the sake of future cash flow.

    Bungie did dramatically change one thing, the loot/vendor system. It's royally broken. All RNG benefits lie in low-level events. This renders elite activities pointless, which is fine because they're unenjoyable anyway. Even worse, players can't buy gear once they progressed far enough. They must rely on a lottery to pad out their arsenals. It's a mess.

    The game engine needs an overhaul. Load times are annoyingly long. Even the map takes 2-3 seconds to appear, and it’s never centered over the player. The frame rate struggles to stay at the 30fps cap which makes for sluggish combat. D2 has solid mechanics, but it’s missing the fluidity of its competitors. COD, Overwatch, and Battlefield deliver solid performance and crisp visuals on large set pieces. By comparison, D2 graphics look washed out while being prone to frame drops and stuttering. Busy public events slow everything to a crawl.

    A few meaningful changes happened in the Crucible. Bungie made all game modes 4v4 while nerfing some weapons. Matches are less chaotic. Run and gun playstyle won't work here. It’s more balanced than the original but offers nothing worthwhile. Unfortunately, multiplayer still relies on bargain bin peer-to-peer connections. Expect horrendous lag and inconsistent performance. Frames are locked at 30fps in competitive multiplayer. Bungie obviously doesn’t care that 60fps and dedicated servers are the de facto minimums for competitive play. There’s no justification for its decision.

    Destiny 2 is a cash grab. Fans zealously proclaim the “little things” Bungie changed. Yet, it’s the big things that hold Destiny back. With decades of game development experience and billions in revenue, Bungie still can't create the Destiny it promised. Yet, it arrogantly expects fans to fork out their hard-earned cash. If you didn’t like the original, you won't like this one either.    … Expand

Then you'll be standing around town with nothing to do but kill the same **** you've always killed with much better gear then when you completed the raid... it just doesn't make sense why we have to buy the next expansion to get the next raid. Money? More then likely... There should higher end raids that only a handful of people get into but there is not.

    Strikes have borderline no value, the raid was somewhat challenging but with effort and marginal common sense beatable, and the fact that I only had to play once, maybe twice a week for the weekly resets are more annoying than anything else. Once you hit level cap you have a boring grind for tokens to hopefully obtain a marginally decent weapon.

    Crucible (the PvP) will always have balancing issues, and if you can look past the imperfect nature of the game I suppose that is one of the few redeeming qualities.

    Overall I wasted my money on this, and will not be purchasing the DLC nor a Destiny 3. I have a few friends that give the excuse that "its a work in progress," and my answer to them is their being conned if they think Destiny will somehow overhaul with massive changes that gamers actually want.

    the story is only marginally better than the best game of destiny 1, but thats not saying much. they recycled    destiny 2 is takes the cake for what happens when a company that was once cherished in the gaming community turns to greed. this game is not an improvement over destiny 1, in fact, im willing to go out on a limb and say its a downgrade from the taken king expansion in destiny 1.

    the story is only marginally better than the best game of destiny 1, but thats not saying much. they recycled the same subclasses and reskinned new ones from the previous ones, painting a shamefully pathetic image that they did something new when they didnt.

    the loot is garbage and the exotics are sub par in feel and look. all the bosses are reskinned in each missions, and all of the same enemy factions from the previous game are back, yet nothing new is even added to them except a couple new weapons and thats it.

    destiny 2 is a lazy reboot of a cancelled expansion by bungie, they thought they could ride into the sunset with minimal effort put into this game, and they failed miserably. they had three years of feedback from destiny 1, and they threw all of that out the window because they only thought of profits and know they can abuse their fanbase without any sort of hard repercussions.    … Expand

    I will keep it short and sweet.

    It’s Tuesday, let’s play Destiny. 3 hours later: I’ve done all the crap for today, see you guys next Tuesday...... Translation: make a game about grinding for loot but only allow players to get said loot once a week and even then it may not be better than what you have. Nothing to see here folks. Just wait for Destiny 3. Should be dropping soon.    I will keep it short and sweet.

I do recall something about Destiny having a 10 year shelf life only to hear the excuse for 2 was that they couldn’t do what they wanted in the first one. So uh, with all that new equipment, y’all made the same enemies, most of the same guns and same classes? Bummer, guess you shouldn’t have sprung for those new coffee warmers the interns use to count the money y’all are stealing from your dwindling fan base.

    The game has become even worse in my opinion. It feels even more like a tedious looter shooter/ sweat game because dlcs and “season passes” are what keeps the game going. Destiny 1 was flawed but destiny 2 is fundamentally a bad game

    Destiny 2 really could have been great. At first glance, it looks like a glimmering, smooth as butter shooter with some MMORPG mechanics providing longevity. That's what it appears to be for the first couple hours. Then you start noticing how repetitive the enemies are, and how incredibly generic everything about the world is.

Then you start noticing how repetitive the enemies are, and how incredibly generic everything about the world is. Then you visit another planet and it feels like a repainted version of the other planet. You quickly start collecting loot that is almost identical to your existing gear, except with a couple stat numbers increased. PvE is an agonizing mindless grind, like eating stale Cheetos for some meager satisfaction when you have nothing else to eat, but it leaves a nasty taste in your mouth. PvP is a laughably unbalanced joke maybe included to appease Halo fans expecting something much different from the once great developer Bungie. Destiny appears to be many things, but appearances can be deceiving. The planets you explore are very pretty, but so linear. Most locations are like the most simplistic three-lane Call of Duty map design, scaled out by a thousand. Exploration is very linear. The lore, plot, and sense of atmosphere, are extremely thin, and lacking any soul. I would summarize this online-only game by saying that is a solid 6 to 8 hours of free entertainment, until you start gagging on the stale repetitive gameplay, and refuse to be strung along by this barebones game covered in glitter (or glimmer)… Also, the first 30 minutes are so similar to the original Destiny, that I honestly thought I had accidentally loaded up the first Destiny.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok. Here goes. Before I start I would say this - I have spent hundreds of hours playing Destiny 1, I got myself all the DLC for D1 and with the exception of last one (the rise of iron) I enjoyed them equally and consider it worth my money. Stepping into D2 I was excited which later turned into frustration as it would seem that Bungie did not learn anything from D1 and went on its task to reinvent the wheel from the start:
    1.) Shooting mechanics and gameplay - these guys made halo and have already proved themselves in terms of gun play. No issues here at all Bungie. This might be your only saving grace.
    2.) Story – You have at least 4 major plots to cover (one for each race of enemies) and then there is the big question of the big balloon hanging in the sky (the traveler). The pace at which you are telling us the story, you are going to run out of time and sequels to finish them up. Example: Using D2 to introduce new chars – Garry and his cabal dogs (btw they are the only new enemy type in D2) and a completely new story that asks more questions than it answers. Do we know more about the traveler now? No we don’t. Where are the Vex from, what do they want, how are they so powerful? Why have the Fallen’s united , Variks & Crow what are they upto ? and don’t for a second think that you are done with Hive / Taken. The Taken King DLC did explain a lot (thanks to Mylin & Byf) but you have again left the story hanging with lot of questions than answers. You guys need to make your story coherent and give it some depth, char development etc. Of all your mistakes, incoherent story, is the biggest one and it reflects in all your side plots as well –
    DESIGN THE STORY & GAMEPLAY IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT MAKES THE PLAYER ASK MEANINGFUL QUESTIONS LIKE - WHO IS THIS COOL LOOKING EXO? HOW DOES SHE KNOW SO MUCH? WHAT IS SHE GUARDING? WHO IS SHE TALKING TO ON THE COMM. LINK? HOW CAN SHE TELEPORT FROM ANYWHERE? HOW IS SHE CONNECTED TO THE TRAVELER?
    And then your answer: THE EXO STRANGER THANKS THE PLAYER FOR FIGHTING THE BAD GUYS AND GIVES THE PLAYER HER RIFLE. THAN DISAPPEARS , FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I am telling you Bungie you do not have enough time to warp up important story lines let alone the sub plots (I count 15 so far). We are two sequels and five paid DLCs down and you still haven’t told us anything. Every sequel / DLC introduces a new sub plot (yes I am calling the story of D2 a sub plot) that distracts from the main story and does not answer any of important questions we had from D1. We can have major plot related questions and still have fresh content – a DLC where the guardian take a journey inside the Traveler. Osiris DLC could have been used to answer questions about the VEX, it could have told us how they as a species got involved in all this, why worship the darkness. Instead you introduced a new boss and new story for Mercury. Osiris is a most powerful warlock that will go to any lengths to get results (in this case saving humanity), but in the end you made him look like some old hobo who does not care for any of this and in the end goes on a pilgrimage into the VEX gate to explore new world, with no information on VEX shared with the vanguard. He even says to his ghost in the end of DLC that “……..we have all the time in the world”, I get VEX alternate timeline & time travel and all crap, but is that the kind of tempo you want to build up as a narrative telling your player base that there is no urgency and you have all the time in the world. BTW no raid in this DLC, Raid layer does not qualify as new content.    … Expand

    Ive owned the game from the beginning. i am really underwhelmed by this Destiny. Destiny 1 was so much better than this Destiny with multiplayer. We had options to do different games now we are forced to either play quick play or competitive. Even if Destiny 1 was not balanced, it was way more fun and competitive than this game.

    Destiny 1.5, but for the price of a full game. While the core gameplay, which was solid to begin with is back, that's just it: there isn't much that is new in the game. The same enemies with slightly different weak points, a cinematic story (which was nice, but I wouldn't buy this JUST for the story), and 4v4 PvP. The raid was painful to complete, and PvP isn't fun at all, with there beingDestiny 1.5, but for the price of a full game.

It was a good effort, but there's alot that needs to still be done before the Destiny universe and the games that portray are heralded as the pinnacle of FPS-RPG games. * Side note, there's a **** season pass, and DLC that comes with it.

    I was surprised by how much this new incarnation of Destiny appealed to me. New worlds are brilliantly designed, sound and visuals are top notch, combat feels great (those headshots!). This is how the first Destiny should have looked. [12/2017, p.50]

    Destiny 2 is more accessible to the neophytes than the first game was, but still complex enough to get long-time players to invest hundreds of hours in the universe. The story of the campaign is less confused than in the original, but it’s not exactly good either. It went from painstakingly bad to ordinary, which is at least an improvement. Destiny 2 is the gaming equivalent of a Michael Bay movie.

    Destiny 2 is one of the most enjoyable games I’ve played this year, and tackles one of the biggest issues with the first game. Featuring a stellar, albeit easy, single-player campaign, excellent combat and class mechanics, and the most enjoyable cooperative multiplayer I’ve seen in a shooter since Gears of War 4, Destiny 2 is a must-buy.
