What needs to happen with Destiny 2 (Destiny)

I agree 100 percent on the story elements and loot. You can see the basic threads there. The missions need to play more like a real campaign. I agree have us fight our way out of places, have us go and disable something. Bungie was great with how missions should play with the Halo games. Take that and give us missions like that but with a Destiny spin on it. I'd like to see more missions that take elements from the strikes and raids. Ultimately though I think what hurt the games story missions the most was the same thing that hurt Halo: Reach. They had to design spaces that had to be reused multiple times. In the case of Reach it was Multiplayer and Singleplayer. As a result you constantly had to come back to the same play space time and time again. The moon was the worst I think at this. It was like oh we're going back down in but this time we're taking a right and still ending up the same place.

I don't pretend to know a ton about development of games. I think another thing that kind of hurt the narrative was that we were constantly going back to the same places too. I don't know how they could do it but I really would have loved different locations on the planets to visit. Prime example is earth. I'd have loved more then just Old Russia. Also I wish the planets had been made to feel different. I would have loved to see the moon play like the outdoor section of Cairo Station in halo 2 for example. Even if they had to tone down the floatiness I'd have loved for it to have had some. Instead it feels like playing a grey earth when we're on the surface. I liked Venus Jungle environment and think it was a decent way to make it different.

All this said though I do love the game. Hell I play it on 2 damn consoles. I just know though that the world they created could be so much more. I hope they do listen and make some changes for Destiny 2 without a doubt though.
