To me, Faction Rallies could have been a great improvement over the Destiny 1 system. Because it [i]sounds[/i] like Bungie were going to make the choice really matter. Instead, it's another Destiny 2 couldhavebeen. Imagine this: You go to the Tower and it loads a cutscene. An unknown guardian kidnaps you, and takes you down to a cell. Here, there are FWC flags hanging everywhere. He demands that you join the faction, and you can either hold the interact button to comply, or turn to the right, pick up a weapon, shoot him and join the faction you actually want to join. Then, you walk out of the cell. You do whatever you were going to do in the Tower, and you load up an EDZ patrol. When you enter a new area, a siren goes off. The game loads up exclusively FWC guardians, and they're all alerted to your presence. Now you have a pvp event in an open world. And your faction choice matters both to your gameplay, and everyone else's. Hell, you could even make it pve and have AI enemy guardians piloting giant mechs and tanks. But instead you're doing the same thing you were doing before the event, to get tokens, that reward you with weapons almost exactly the same as every other weapon.
