taken from a much longer post. Maps: I think the maps are amazing in destiny but it feels like this is the only section of the game that has had any real attention from bungie ! The story quests, however, are not as good! In an open map game like this I was VERY disappointed to see that each questis simply a corridor. You start at one end and shoot enemies on your way to the other side! The quests here could have been soo much more. In some sections you're running for a minute before the next enemy area, it's just mindless and only exists to extend the time it would otherwise take you to complete the mission. Either by introducing some resident evil type puzzles into it or having multiple routes to completing each mission * the story line and lack of immersion in the game factor in heavily here * would be a major improvement. This would generate real conversations about the game too "I completed quest acbxxx yesterday" "Oh yea? I did it too, I took the left route, sniped everyone from the ledge! You?" "Oh no, I hate sniper rifles. I had to take the direct path in and shoot everyone in the face!" At the moment it feels like every mission is a repeat of the last one, just with different scenary to look at. A lot of the 'mission space' is also accessible whilst running patrols on the map so it seems bungie is only adding some enemy ai and behaviour scripting to the missions, the map content is already there. For the investment and size of this game they should be adding more to missions than just that! Backstory . I think the back story is severally lacking in the this game. There just isn't anything that makes me feel like a guardian or have anything to do with the game universe! who are we protecting? we never even see them! I never felt crota is a threat to me... Think final fantasy type storylines! Not as big budget but they had properly developed characters with their own stories within the general game arc. I think General zavalo? and Eris Moon and Lord Shaxx should be given a proper background - why they took their jobs, how they got there, their individual stories etc these could easily be added as a library to the kiosks/terminals that already exist with the exotic blueprints and emotes.
