I hope Destiny 2 is a little more "open world"

I took this screenshot, and it has me thinking. Zelda has the "If you see it, you can go there." motto, I don't want D2 to be like that, I just want patrols to be more fulfilling than just doing bounties and public events. Bungie did an amazing job with the landscape and draw distances, it's a shame we don't get to fully explore them. Destiny is a shared world shooter/MMO hybrid, whatever, but it's so limited. They dropped last gen, so there's more power to do more in the game, I just hope they put it to good use. The way D1 is ending is how I think D2 should begin, with more openness. I can't express that enough. Even with all the nerfs, complaints, exclusive content, etc. Destiny at its core is a great game. Bungie is a talented developer and they nailed the mechanics and gunplay to a T. I hope they don't scrap what they've built and ruined the formula. I don't care what platform people play on, we're all part of the Destiny community and as a community need to push Bungie to make D2 the best it can be. Destiny, as it is now, is because we as a community asked for it, and Bungie listened. They delivered albeit bad timing. I honestly think Age of Triumph is a great send off to Destiny 1. I hope Bungie takes that and makes it the heart of Destiny 2, with an actual story of course. Some people won't agree with me and that's fine, we're all entitled to our own opinions. EDIT: Surprisingly everybody agrees with this thread. I know Destiny 2 is practically finished, but a game like this would be so much more immersive. Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone. EDIT: Almost 300 upvotes and 200 comments. I don't care about trending, but it's nice to see a positive thread be on top for a change. Thank you to everyone who kept console wars out of the discussion. Thank you for being civil and proving that the community isn't full of salt.

  • I hope so too. Sometimes I literally get lost in the backdrops in PvE and even PvP wishing "Man I wish I could go to that skyscraper/mountain/volcano/crevasse/forest and explore it. There's gotta be stuff to be found or evil stuff to kill down/up/over there." Not to say that I expect the patrol maps to be 100x the size they are now but I'd like to see the size multiply at least 3-5 times if that's possible without making my One blow up trying to load it all. Just big enough that I don't have to look in the distance and almost everything there is impossible to get to. Although I love that sense of mystery and it's one of the things that keeps me playing, sometimes it just makes me sad that I can't venture out to some of those places.
