Why DESTINY 2 Will Be Good

Here's a "little" thread on why Destiny 2 is going to be better than its predecessor. 1. The Standard for Sequels [spoiler]The standard for sequels is ideally to improve on the game made prior to it. Generally, this means an increase in graphical quality, storyline, mechanics, and to shed more light on the subject the game is based around. [/spoiler] 2. Halo is the Standard [spoiler]As you know, Bungie not only made Destiny, but Halo as well. That was the reason I purchased Destiny (bump if you did too). In reference to reason one, Halo definitely achieved the Standard for Sequels (and by sequels, I mean in order of the date they were created, not in chronological order of the plot). Halo: Combat Evolved was a great game when it came out. Me and all my friends bought it as soon as we could. Halo 2, in my opinion, met the Standard for Sequels. Halo 3 not so much, but Halo: Reach topped them all. Looking at this, Bungie has the ability to go far beyond the Standard for Sequels and can definitely improve on Destiny 2.[/spoiler] 3. RPG Noobs [spoiler]Destiny is Bungie's first RPG, so they didn't know exactly what the ideal for it was or how to make it perfect. Now, Bungie's learned from Destiny and can use the knowledge they've gained to make a better Destiny 2.[/spoiler] 4. The Community [spoiler]YOU are what is going to make Destiny 2 a better game. In fact, me writing this right now will help improve Destiny 2. Every single post that is made goes into making Destiny a good sequel. Take the Ben Obiwan post for example. Though it was not mentioned, much of the things talked about in that post may be incorporated into Destiny 2, though hardly anything, if anything at all, was added to the first. [/spoiler] 5. Money [spoiler]This is the reason sequels are made. If Bungie and Activision want more money from the community, they can't just grab all the mechanics from Destiny, change the story a bit, slap a big "2" on the front and call it a sequel. They've got to introduce some new things in order to keep people playing and buying new games. They've got to have a compelling story like Halo's. They've got to fix broken elements. They've got to listen to the community, hear what they want, and give it to them in a balanced way that won't break the game.[/spoiler] I didn't think this was good enough to go on the list, but here's one more reason: 6. Test Run [spoiler]Destiny could very easily be a test run for what they need to do in the next game. If the community likes certain elements, they'll keep them. If the community hates them, they'll get rid of and replace them with something they think the community will like. [/spoiler] Well, there's my top five (plus an extra) reasons why Destiny 2 will be a good game. Like, comment, and/or bump if you agree. Take note that any offensive comments will result in a deletion of your comment and a report. Edit: 50 comments! Woop woop! Edit: 100 comments! (it's actually the highest I've ever gotten on a single post, so thanks for that, dudes!)
