Official Feedback on The Taken King - The Story
The one about the story.
Better story has been a big request from the community since Destiny first launched last year. Many of you have gotten through the initial story missions. There are still some untold elements in the end game, but what are your thoughts on the story so far. What do you like, what do you dislike? What do you think about the characters, are they more interesting than in the past? Did you enjoy the new cut scenes? Let us know what you think.

Loved it Apart from the Speaker .... Not actually speaking lol And now that the ghost talks again (yaaayy) I think my guardian only had .. 1 line ... I think Other than that I loved it :D Now somebody tell me what the hell happened at the end with Eris ?! thanks
-
pleasantly surprised. originally hated the new ghost. but his own lines aren't too bad. still don't care for the redelivered ones. wish there was a reason in story why his whole personality became different. maybe got bonked by a cabal sheild or something lol love the personalities coming through from the vanguard. more of this please. love how they all recognize eris is a nut. the story itself is fine im glad theres continuity between us killing crota and now his dad is pissed.

Definitely an improvement, but there's always room for more improvement

4 Replies[b]Base Game (Vanilla/Dark Below/House of Wolves):[/b] No changes? Really? I was actually set to delete one of my characters and replay everything just to experience all these story changes I was hearing about. I was expecting new cutscenes at the very least, and apparently Luke Smith or whoever was saying about how there were now random things you could scan out in the world to get background information on things since the lack of story also related to the overwhelming lack of in-game lore. [b]The Taken King Expansion:[/b] Its an improvement. Its what I was expecting to see in the base game. I thought the whole game was going to get an overhaul for the story, not JUST the new content. But 3.5 hours? What the hell yo, its a $40 Expansion. Can we just compare this to the expansions that other games put out? I'd assume that even on a speed run, a bare minimum of 10 hours would be added. 10 hours of experiencing new things. [b]Overall Story Rating = 7.0 (TTK) / 3.0 (Base Game)[/b]

I loved the story of u getting ur third super and u fighting the enemies and doing certain stuff to get it. It was great!! What did u guys think?
-
The queen is pretty hot. Loved the cut scenes. If this was the game I bought day one I wouldn't have a bad thing to say about it.
-
Some good characters, much better writing. Oryx was a weak character, no backstory other then being Crota's pop. Didn't feel sinister either. Felt cheesy. Eris Morn was great and so was Cayde

3 Replieswhat are we gonna do with the sapphire wires, plasteel plating and hardonic essence?
-
still a grind, a full time job and i dont like it.. what are we supposed to do with year 1 legendary gears and guns? cant do the nightfall because it says "better gear"
-
I wish it had been a bit longer. But it was your best effort by far. It far surpasses what you called a story in Destiny.
-
I loved it all. Finally i feel like characters exist in this world. 11 hours straight and im not even close to being done with quests. Although, i dont like the fact that im left to assume that Uldren and Mara are dead. I DONT WANT THEM TO BE DEAD!! They havent really done anything in a game thats supposed to last another 9 yrs
-
I love, love, LOVE all three of the Vanguard characters, and I enjoyed the cutscenes. I still felt that they were too vague however. One year in and we still don't know a lot of basics about the world or its races. Story length and mechanics about fit what I was expecting, but the main draw to me was how the story is told, which I felt was better with the cutscenes and more voiceover.
-
1 ReplyI like how there are actually story cut scenes now. However, the story is very short considering the price you are asking
-
I'm still downloading the update from the 8th. Wtf playstation? I have a 50meg connection hard wired to the damn console. Just 5 more hours before I can start the next one!
-
I love the flow between all the characters in the vanguard and the ghost. The humor between cayde is great and doesn't sound cheesy or something that would get annoying after the 3d or 4th time. The seriousness of the matter at hand though against oryx and his taken fleet is very good. Neither type of story telling seems to be too much. They are both balanced. I can't wait to finish the story tonight or this week. Thank you for this awesome game bungie and for the great employees.

I love the taken King Story my favorite part (Spoiler) is when you get Chased by Oryx's Taken minions in the Temple of Crota after taking a Shard of the Crystal that held Crota's Soul's.... Sad part Queen Mara Sov and the Awoken got Wiped out during the attack on the Dreadnaught
-
The NPC characters were allot better than before. Now I actually like the Hunter Vanguard, before I could care less. The interaction with each other did lead to some laughs which was a nice touch. Caught a small curse too which was actually appropriate at the time and not just for shock value. Everything just felt more fleshed out than before. Even the Ghost cracking jokes about opening doors again.

Edited by PenLax22: 9/16/2015 12:08:42 AMI'm five (four? three?) missions in and loving it! Loved climbing up those towers in the Cosmodrome. So cool. Dreadnaught so far is great. Same giddiness getting green drops when i first played last year. I can't wait to put my other two characters through and looking forward to getting to level 40 and beyond. The story is great, cut scenes too. Would love to Raid with anyone who wants. Never really did raid so looking forward to working through any of them but especially this one. Cozmo, wanna be on a newbie raid team? I know several others who haven't. . .anyone there at Bungie want to help some raid newbies? :)

Absolutely love it! I love Cayde's attitude and how sneaky he is! I love the fact that this time around you're involved in the activities of the vanguard. Yes I've wondered who puts those beacons there. I've only done the stormcaller class quest and I thought it to be very fitting <3. The blight kill patrol bounties are a pleasant surprise. Nice to have some challenge in my patrols again. Love the quest lines. Just love everything about it so far except the fact that I'm already through the main story line. That's always a bummer. The 60$ I dropped on the game is already worth it. very happy with the story involvement in this one and can't wait to see more.

Edited by dicjones: 9/16/2015 12:07:12 AMI quit playing in October. TTK got me interested again. I started a new character and I must say, so far, it has been a much better experience than what I had last year at this time. I like how we have a little more explanation as to why we are doing something through the quest notes. It ties it together much better. The kiosks scattered about the tower are a welcome addition as well. Claiming finished bounties from the character screen? Brilliant, although should have been obvious from the get go that this was needed. Could just be me, but I'm getting a lot of jewels dropping, this is awesome, not just because more loot, but it's actually very rewarding to see those things pop up when you kill something. Speaking of rewarding, thank you! For redoing the level system. No matter what I do now, I'm actually getting something for it, it may just be a few xp but that goes towards advancing my character. It's also nice to be able to equip something based on its perks and how it looks instead of its light level. Looking forward to playing some more. I think I might be sticking around for a while this time. As a side note, I think class specific quests would be a great edition to this game. FFXIV has basically two sets for stories to follow. The main story and then another minor story that revolves around you class. Every five levels you unlock a new quest that continues that story. The rewards are class specific in the case of FFXIV.

Love the the taken king, 2 grumbles tho mayhem clash should be permanent and I hate the idea of being forced into fireteams to do bounties/quests but apart from that everything has been great so far.
-
Edited by DrGR33NThUmb000: 9/15/2015 11:55:38 PMHow Nolanbot argues with the Hunter vangaurd and everyone else lol complaining about hacking the warmind when the ghosts done it before apparently. Really cheesy. Same how when ya land in oryxs house he says "well were somwhere" lol. Change the voice up a bit and the dialogue. Have a female voice as well and a pitch changer for fun lol. Other than that im hopin the DLC's deliver more
-
I don't dislike anything. It's overwhelmingly awesome. New super is great. Quests are fun. More story...queen better not be dead. Taken King far exceeds my expectations. Please tell those guys they did an incredible job. Really, this is great fun. Can't wait to do my next two characters. I'm still amazed I've been playing now 14 hours and there is so much to do. Can't wait to see the Raid!!!
-
I for 1 have enjoyed the quests and story mode ... The new strikes are good. The court of oryx us nuts and the mayhem crucible is awesome I like the fact that the year 1 strikes have been mixed up and revamped However There should be clan wars. I still havent got my suros weapons pack. Alart from that bungie i think you have restored your faith in people Me and my clan all enjoyed it Keep it up
