Alex Thomas of COGconnected - Having never played the first Destiny, I look at the opinion of a newcomer to the series as I try out Destiny 2 with no previous experience.
While the good arguably outweighs the bad, there are still some valid concerns about Destiny 2’s approach to reversing weapon sunsetting.
Destiny 2's meta is ever-shifting, and a recent Exotic went from overlooked to must-have very fast.
Among the various things revealed in Destiny 2: Into the Light, I don't think any of them beat the speculation Pantheon received. The unexpected raid boss - IS
"everyone falls into place for the greater good" Well, more like everyone meets up to score some legendary and exotic engrams, its crickets otherwise. Beautiful art direction, excellent music score, but now that I'm at 270 and the weapon improvements have dried up there isn't much else to do. The grind does get repetitive after real gains are lost. Still I played around 35+ hours coop and definitely got my money's worth. Wise move not to buy the expansion until the DLC is proven to add to the game. The vanilla story is well, vanilla but better than the first in that there is actually a story. Just remember you'll beat it in about 6-8 hours which is not so epic. I'd rate this game an 8.2 with room for improvement and will check back for future DLC. As for now, tons of great games coming out this season; until then back to Warframe.
Art direction, visuals (ps4pro), music ans story are SO much better than D1. Story missions are some of the best fps campaign missions I have ever played. World is huge, planets are beautiful, intrrface is much more streamlined. This game is a classic!
Boring and repetitive. Why oh why do gamers get dragged in to buy this crap is beyond me. It's your money , so I'm glad that some people seem to enjoy it, but me I rather spend my money on good games ( nier automata, yakuza, witcher 3)
