So this in my opinion is some of the changes I think would make Destiny 2 better I'm no game designer so i cant really say that any of this would actually have been possible. Just so you all know I run a Hunter as a solo player so when comes to talking about other classes and group play I wont have any clue what to talk about so if you guys have stuff you'd like to see feel free to comment about it or heck even disagree with me on stuff. TL;DR Grimoire should come back Titan Was wasted the savathun strike could of added more to the game but it was as hollow as everything else in destiny 2 will expand more if this gets enough attention LORE So to start we can take a look at first I would say lets talk about maps and story. now D2 by a mile is filled with a lot more story in the game especially compared to D1, but as any heavy lore specialist on youtube will tell you we some how lost depth. There is a difference between depth and expansiveness though depth is how much backstory there is to discover in a story perfect example is the Grimoire of Destiny 1 which created this huge library of short stories and any one of those could have been honestly turned into real books or even comics (would love to see Dark Horse run a Destiny line). Destiny 2 does not have the Grimoire making the lore very shallow in the ways of side stories and back story. (would love to see Dark Horse run a Destiny line) Now what do I mean by expansiveness well that is how much of the lore can be explored in the game (maybe Explorability is a better word?) which in Destiny 1 was poorly executed honestly turning Destiny 1 into a pool that's 5'x5' and 25' deep, this is where Destiny 2 shines though it has "a lot" to explore - relatively - but since its lacking the depth of Destiny 1's Grimoire it ends up being a pool that's 25'x25' but only an inch deep in some ways making the world more bland in some areas. MAPS So next I will talk about the maps But mostly Titan what I feel like is the most wasted map in the entire game (I will also be talking about the Savathun strike on Titan). so what is wrong with Titan first off size and Titan is the most atrocious example of tiny map syndrome in the game with only 2 locations that are public areas with only 2 public events 1 in both areas "Destroy the Arsenal Walker". This makes the map unfun to explore and boring to hang out in when your doing the same two public events and it there is a period where there is no public events going on in the map. Okay so what changes would I make to the map obviously I would make it bigger in two ways first making more rigs that would be public spaces instead of the 2 we have now, and then adding something you don't really see in destiny but they had the perfect opportunity to do on Titan which would be add verticallity. Imagine if you will exploring the tops of the rigs exploring the tops of towers or heck maybe even exploring tunnels underneath the ocean they kinda played with this idea in the mission where you take the computer core, but that room was super empty. Imagine though, running through glass tubes and rooms underneath the ocean fighting off Hive in these sometimes very claustrophobic areas that would be awesome. Of course I would make more Public events for these areas as well and spend more story time there So the next thing is the Savathun strike which had the chance for being the most unique strike, but ended up being the most bland for no reason. Think It is the first raid where we have interaction with guardians who are not the vanguard which was super awesome except it was completely pointless and served no purpose if you had removed Taeko from the mission it would have played exsactly the same way "shoot things to eventually shoot bigger thing". now imagine this when the guardian we here the first time imagine if you will we press further and we come to the open area where we see the hive wizard sitting in front of a crystal for the first time now imagine instead of just seeing the Wizard sitting there we see the wizard actually rip the light out of the Guardian, that would be shocking right the first time in destiny we see a guardian actually murdered in front of us compounding how dangerous the Hive is. Next we could talk about Taeko she was wasted and she could have turned the mission into a search and rescue instead of the empty staple of destiny. this post has gotten kinda long so I will end here if it gets enough attention I will expand on it more.
