Halo in Destiny

The editors didn't like
The video memory at 3GB limits the GTX 1060 to 1920×1080 resolution
PrecisionX OC refused to launch for us after activation. We probably left overclocking performance on the table by setting our overclock manually by being unable to use the advanced overclocking features it offers
Inventory management's a chore. Power leveling becomes a grind. Needs some new enemy types
Developer
Limitless grind can be exhausting
Bungie yet again needing a year and a big expansion to get their game where it needs to be
Farming Exotic Engrams is frustrating
New campaign is banal
Heroic Strikes need balancing
Some side activities rendered completely useless early on in the level grind
Campaign starts strong but then doesn't go anywhere
Only character looks carry over from Destiny 1
Excessively strict 3rd party overlay ban
Somewhat limited customization system
Lack-luster story line not true to lore
Graphic engine beginning to show age
Mild control issues
Requires players own the first year's abysmal expansions
Bungie's let players down before. Only time will tell if Destiny 2's truly turned the corner
Anticlimactic final boss
4k/60fps difficult to achieve
Short
Forgettable Campaign
Mercury is a tiny playable space
DLC is mandatory to play base Destiny 2 endgame content
Anticlimatic campaign
Long Power Grind
Story campaign is quick and a little thin
Story being on a high note
Peters off with forced roadblocks
Then ends abruptly with no resolution
Vex completely forgotten about before the launch of the raid and Vex Offensive mode
New Light completely changes campaign structure and hides the story
The grind. The endless grind. I am meat for the grinder
The new Strikes don't stand out from the old ones
Newcomers may have a hard time getting invested in the story
Sharp spikes in level requirements can be restrictive and frustrating
New activities are fun but aren't as substantial as previous additions
It's not new player friendly
There isn't a lot of content to be found in Curse of Osiris
And even less to be enjoyed
Destiny's current release/transactional model doesn't work
Does not address Destiny 2's biggest endgame or PvP concerns
Severely lacking in social options
Weapon balancing doesn't always translate well on PC
Abstract: Destiny 2 feels like an apology. It is the righting of the wrongs committed by the divisive Destiny 1, a game I couldn't help but pump a thousand hours into despite it often feeling like pulling teeth.The developers at Bungie, with Halo-fuelled egos dente...

Abstract: There are three reviews of Destiny 2 that need to be written.The first is Destiny 2: the campaign, the game that you can sit down and play through from start to finish. It's a genuinely good experience, with a plot that makes sense, characters who have ac...
Abstract: 'How do you live in a world without light?'That's a question posed, quite bluntly, by the game's big bad guy, moments into Destiny 2's introductory mission. It puts across the game's intent, coming at the end of an opening level that sets itself to tearin...

Abstract: The greatest strength of Destiny – a game where even its biggest fans often struggle to explain why they continue playing for thousands of hours – is its core compulsion loop. Wandering around the Moon, shooting aliens in the head, picking up glowing engr...

Abstract: BUNGIEA reminder for everyone that many of the reviews underneath are 'reviews in progress' so may have changed overnight as critics plough more hours into Bungie's epic space adventure.Additionally, there's another review worth looking over published las...
Great fun gameplay that feels familiar yet more accessible than Destiny's, Epic story, Tonnes of lovely lovely loot, Plenty of replay value
Missions can feel a little samey, Raids and strikes only unlock late into the game
It seems that Bungie is, based on our play sessions with Destiny 2 at this early stage, affirming its safe pair of hands. It has been making triple-A games for many years now and it shows.We can't tell at this stage how the apocalyptic storyline will play...
Destiny 2: Forsaken returns the story that Bungie began back to its roots: A power fantasy with a more sombre story, that retools the sequel to once again feel like a hobby that's well worth investing in, even if some rough edges do still show in this adv...
Destiny 2 does have an identity once again, a solid bedrock upon which to build its future. But whatever Bungie has planned, it's going to need to be far sturdier than its latest collection of recycled content, uneven new events and a meagre amount of PVP...
Deepening of Destiny lore, Mechanics remain refined
Little in-game rewards, Gameplay repetitive
As far as expansions go, Curse of Osiris is one of the more lacklustre that Bungie has delivered to date. Short on in-game content and repetitive in terms of gameplay, it does not yield the payoff that Destiny 2 gamers may have been hoping for. This expan...
