Edit: ok community, with the article and video from gameinformer i am becoming even more hyped and hopefuk for the taken king.
Cutscenes, more interactions with characters, dinklebot being replaced by nolan north (we need a new name, nolanbot?)
And, hopefully according to the article, a much more story driven way to play the game.
Firstly, day 1 beta ghost edition player and shield of heroes bearer. I love this game and want it to succeed (fanboy status out of the way)
The main problem with Destiny isn't necessarily the story; it's there, clear as day.
The problem is we don't [i]care[/i] about the story and it's told far too vaguely and grimoire doesn't really supplement it properly.
We have 0 connection to the Traveler, Stranger, Speaker or even the people of the city we protect. The most character involvement we get is the Ghost and the Queen and there isn't much there (except the Queen's booty).
My point is, with TTK, we need more than 'Oryx is coming for vengeance and he's being a dick to the Cabal- that annoying race u hate'
We need to have actual story driven cinematics that communicate to us that Oryx is a huge douche and we need to get emotionally driven to kill this guy rather than: 'go kill him cuz game, pew pew'.
Thoughts, Guardians?
Please keep it civil, respectful and thoughtful.
Edit: some great hate here from users:
Hes behind 2.0 nerf
Hes behind TTK bundles and UK pricing
He took all the redbull and got wings
Edit: ok so there will be cutscenes, but the content needs to bring out the feels and not just be 'oryx brooding, glowy hand'
Edit: ok so theres a good amount of guardians that feel self-defense is enough and thats fine, but some of us need more. We went to kill the Vex in self defense, but did we rly care while we did it? Or was it just 'lol! Pew pew, o... game over?'
Edit: 8/4/15 new gameinformer TTK article and video. GO GO GO!
Edit: ok, a lot of guardians r saying "we killed his son/ hes a bad guy / hes coming for us - isnt that enough??"
The answer is NO guardians. I understand full well the premise of the story in TTK , but is there a reason to rly care about whats going on?
If theres no emotion behind what we're doing then TTK will just be the same vague, stale mission based fighting that we've been doing for a year now. Its time for the game to take a step up and be more than "go here, pew pew, loot" and actually get us involved in this universe.

1 AntwortenI mean what if you just told the speaker that you didn't care to be revived as a guardian?
-
2 AntwortenWell said. There is no real driving force behind our characters besides the whole "you might get cool loot" by doing things. I hope that the game becomes more narrative and story focused, a game like this deserves more than just, "hey let's shoot things".

He is coming to kill us. That's a good reason to hate him.

1 AntwortenSeeing as how there's very few characters worth caring about in Destiny, it'll be really hard to dislike Oryx. I'm not expecting much.

1 AntwortenImagine if he killed the sweeper bot in the tower... I'd be blown.

7 AntwortenHe needs to kill someone like the stranger (if we actually had enough info to know anything about her) or like commander zahalla or setting or the speaker
-
3 AntwortenHow about because I want his ship for myself? No better reason than that.
