THAB 05/31/18 - Year 2 Reveal Event Details (Destiny)

I can take any variety of gear, I can approach an engagement from any angle I can travel to, and I have various emegent gameplay motivators through exotics and class perks. I guess I just feel like saying that everything in Destiny is somehow less of a sandbox than Halo would be the same as someone playing through the Halo campaigns but never changing weapons from what they spawn with and always walking the same path through each level.

I admit they are structurally different in their approach to sandboxing (comparing curated linear playspaces to modular variable playspaces), but I don’t think that is something Destiny lacks - unless it is self-imposed. The perspective of Destiny as less of a sandbox might just be higher encounter familiarity due to staying in locations for longer spans of time. /shrug
