The following months also weren’t kind to Destiny 2 and its fans. First, fans starved for meaningful content wound up being sorely disappointed with Curse of Osiris thanks to lackluster rewards and the reality of what the “Infinite Forest” actually was: a technologically-impressive loading zone. It sounded cool on paper and was a technological achievement on the part of Bungie, but it unfortunately didn’t amount to much in terms of gameplay.

If it isn’t hard enough taking on one faction of enemies in a strike, taking on multiple different types of enemies just feels like overkill at this point but that is exactly what players have to do in the Warden of Nothing strike. While players will mostly have to work their way through legions of Cabal to finish this strike, that doesn’t mean the occasional Vex doesn’t show up to ruin the mood. Add that with constantly having to avoid bullet trains at the most random of times, thus leaving players with their money’s worth with this str

This enables Midnight Coup to get the reload and add-clear bonus in one column, and then even more damage in the next column. Desperate Measures pushes the weapon to 30% increased damage when getting three ability kills, and Kinetic Tremors deals Area of Effect damage when getting multiple headsh

When Destiny 2 launched, it was arguably a shell of the original. Sure the story was a little more cinematic, but much of what had made Destiny fun and compelling was now strangely absent. Customizable class builds were gone, replaced by ones pre-made by Bungie. Randomly-rolled loot was gone too; now all one had to do was get a gun once and that was it. No more chasing godrolls. Supers were toned-down and put on an excessively long timer; the other abilities were too. There was “more” to do in the hub-worlds too, but it all somehow came-off as even more shallow than the activities available in the original. Throw an over-emphasized Eververse and a merely “okay” raid (with disappointing loot) on top of that and the recipe for a disastrous launch period is complete.

That mentality extends to the way Bungie is handling post-launch content. Season of the Undying sees waves of Vex arriving via a storm to take over the Moon. Watching them arrive is breathtaking, and the firefights that ensue are hectic and enjoyable. Then there’s the new Vex Offensive activity, which allows players to travel back to the Black Garden to take on the Vex. It’s a surprisingly robust seasonal activity and it’ll be interesting to see what lasting impact the Vex have on the Moon once the Season is over.

Not all video game missions are made equally. Some are just naturally harder than others for a multitude of different reasons. Destiny 2 personifies this belief in that some strikes are mind-numbingly easy while others will leave fans pulling their hair

Every title is prestigious in its own right, but not every title is created equal. Some titles are much harder to earn than others, whether that’s due to time-gated triumphs or the activity itself being hard to excel in. Here are all of Destiny 2 News 2′s titles ranked based on how hard they are to e

Clocking in at four-to-five hours, Shadowkeep’s campaign generally overstays its welcome despite such a short completion time. The campaign doesn’t offer anything interesting in the way of revelations or mission design. Instead, it spends most of its length tasking players with mindless busywork. After that, it ends on an interesting yet unsatisfying cliffhanger that likely won’t be addressed until the inevitable Destiny 3. The campaign never approaches the awful Dark Below or Curse of Osiris , but it’s a severe drop in quality from Forsaken.

Bungie’s history with Destiny has been something akin to whiplash. First they release a lackluster base game (Destiny, Destiny 2) and then they release two awful expansions. Finally, when players are at their lowest, Bungie releases an enormous expansion ( The Taken King , Forsaken ) that fundamentally changes the game. It’s a high Bungie achieved last year with Forsaken, which ushered in the best mission design, sandbox activities and post-launch content since The Taken King. But can that streak continue? Destiny 2: Shadowkeep aims to build on Forsaken’s success with a new campaign, a restructured Armor system and more ways to earn loot. Does Destiny 2: Shadowkeep scare up enough quality content, or should it have remain buried on the Moon?
