Some positivity - Art Direction (Destiny)

I will say that Destiny may be one of the best looking games ever. It's gorgeous. The graphics aren't technically cutting edge, but the whole package is wonderful. The art direction this time around is really really good. The art guys certainly did their job of setting up this world.

It's so diverse and awesome.
In 100% agreement- absolutely beautiful art direction

I wish my Titan would stop getting unicorn helmets, but otherwise I like the art style. I initially thought the capes were a bit silly, but now I love the armor design (especially after Halo 4). The Moon looks awesome, as does the Martian wasteland.
Though if I had to criticize one thing, I feel the enemy factions could be more visually distinctive.

Really, you've written books worth of content on the elements of Destiny you think sub-standard or terrible.
Do you lack the vocabulary to write volumes of wondrous praise for the art of Destiny? Or is it simply cooler to be negative?
I do not have that vocabulary but Destiny's artistic world deserves many huge and positive reviews. It's beyond my capability to describe. I am overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of it's scope and grandeur to the point of distraction. I'd rather play in it than talk about it.

There really aren't enough superlatives for the visuals.
Here's one: stunning.
Truly.

Every time I look at my hunter, there's only one word for him: frabjous.

Definitely agree. Bungie nailed it there.

Venus is beautiful. The Moon is dark and scary. Old Russia is old and Russian. My favorite place is Mars. I was the most excited to visit there and I was not disappointed with how it looks. To me it's the most "believable". They nailed how I envisioned it.
And the armor is awesome. After the huge letdown of Halo 4's armor, I'm glad to be playing a game where the characters look so good. Reach has had my favorite armor sets so far, but Destiny may take the lead.

Agreement here. You can almost feel Mars' sand under your beautifully shaded boots.

I absolutely agree—and I don't even own the game due to how big some of my other complaints about it are.
