Step right up as we take a magical mystery tour through the collective mind of Bungie as I break down my 10 biggest WTF moments of Destiny 2, in no particular order. Please add your own list in the comments below. 1. Those CoO Strikes Back in the day, Bungie used to a least turn the map around when giving us recycled missions as strikes. Not any more it seems. 2. The Infinite Forest A limitless array of alternate realities sounded good on paper, but the execution was all kinds of stupid. What's worse is it gave them a plot device to recycle content. Not content from D1 or even vanilla D2, mind you. Nope recycled missions you just finished and now have the opportunity to replay with dialogue changes that half-heartedly sell this to you as... repetition. Plus I love that I can't go in there unless in a mission or strike. Makes sense. 3. Saint 14 Bungie had two great characters to play with for the Curse of Osiris expansion whose complicated past made for one of the most interesting storylines from the Grimoire. Obviously the sensible thing to do was to kill one of them off behind the scenes. After all, why introduce a conflict promised to tease out depth in your characters. Doing the character justice would have been too difficult. Better to avoid it altogether and just throw us a shotgun, an emblem, and a throwaway scene tucked away in a mission that most didn't even bother with. At least we have the helmet that literally has no purpose anymore. 4. Turning Brother Vance into Blind Daryl The badass ToO guy tucked away in the reef? Let's make him comic relief! What better way to cheapen our attempt to impress him every week in D1. Turns out we were all fooled! What a great gag! Plus giving Osiris a fan club just made him that much more edgy! SMH 5. Embarking on a 10 year journey, only to find out you nearly made us start from scratch After considerable player feedback, you agreed to let us keep our guardians. Funny we got all upset about that, considering you sold us on a 10 year journey to become legend. The whole notion that you thought this wouldn't bother us makes me shudder in disbelief. Oh yeah, and those places you made so many memories in? They're all gone now. But you created all new ones? But they're going to disappear in September 2020? I've got a new slogan for you. DESTINY: Become Legend Again and Again and Again and Again. Wait, even better. DESTINY: Trust Us. 6. Crucible It's pretty clear to me that people like different types of crucible. Some people like primary weapons focus. Others prefer abundant heavy ammo. Some people want more supers and abilities, others want less. So rather than creating different modes that cater to these ideas, you make sweeping changes to the entire game. Why not use modifiers to make players adapt to different weapons and situations? Why not let players choose what game mode they want to play. No. Much better to force someone that hates supremacy to continue playing supremacy. After all, you know best. 7. Amanda What the glorious feck does Amanda do in this game? I mean, we don't even get a sparrow until we finish the campaign, at which point we find Amanda selling green ships and sparrows in a game that constantly dumps legendary and exotic sparrows on us. I'd like to see how many sparrows Amanda has sold. I am guessing it is less than 10. Did you just forget about her? Or worse yet, was this a conscious decision? 8. Tokens I get it. You need to slow down the pace with which we earn gear. But tokens? And why not just call weapon parts tokens, because that's what they are. And what do we get with said tokens? Shit we don't want. I mean, who thought of this. Off the top of my head...literally this instant...I have come up with a better idea. I am sure you did too just reading this. 9. Weapon and Armor Mods Random rolls are gone. I can handle that, especially if they are replaced with something to fill that void. Weapon mods! Oh wow! So I could effectively create my perfect gun or armor using materials I attained through quest-based activities? No? What do you mean they drop at random? Only one mod per piece of gear? And only 3 of them are any good? Seriously!? We have an effing gun smith my interactions with him involve giving him a buttload of weapon parts for mods I don't need? And what is the point of the blue mods? 10. Power Level WTF is the point of having a power level of 335 when 99% of the game doesn't recognize said power level. I'm not sure how many people are aware of the level cap in game activities. In a 270 level game activity it makes no difference if I am 300 or 335. So my level goes up, but I don't benefit from it. What a genius idea!
