Maybe you guys at bungie are afraid to make a story that isnt safe? but honestly thats why I and many others loved the bungie games back in the day, because bungie made games 'they wanted to play' and more often than not that meant that the game was overly ambitious and somehow it worked, for example halo 2 and halo 3. PLEASE go back to taking risks! I know that the developers at bungie are very smart people with lots of experience. But this isnt right. I want the story that this old trailer promised many years ago. Mystery, Adventure, DANGER, Consequence, Uniqueness, LEGENDS. These are words i would like to use to describe destiny, however for destiny 2 i dont think i could apply a single one of these words to it. The writing for D1 in the grimoire was fantastic, it was cryptic and answered your questions while asking more and also putting together larger pieces of an amazing puzzle. We got memorable events and characters too. The gameplay was miles better as well! Do you guys remember the Alpha Lupi Arg? that was phenominal! reminded me of the I love bees event back during halo 2. We wanted a more complex version of Destiny 1, we wanted everything Destiny 1 was at the end of rise of iron but with a proper meaningful and intricate story with memorable events and characters. Sure the tower getting blown up and losing our light could be meaningful but it means nothing when we get our light back 15 mins later.. like what? Nothing we do in this game actually matters. Im sure you guys at bungie can do better but are extremely limited in someway or form because of trying to play everything so safe after what happened with the production of D1. Im very very close to uninstalling destiny 2 and never buying another bungie game again.. This is coming from someone who grew up on halo from the age of 4 Become legend?... does that tag mean anything to anyone anymore? Become Average is what D2 is.. smh edit- I will like to say though that sound design, art direction, music and gameplay mechanics as in the shooting are ALL on point! I still love the music, just not the direction of the story and lots of the dumbed down gameplay features or even the AI itself as it poses no challenge.
