So I have been a part of the Destiny universe for 3-ish years, and have never really gave any feedback on the game, or my experience with it as a whole. Partly due to feeling it would be unwarranted, ignored, or otherwise unhelpful. Regardless, these are some of my thoughts, feedback, and suggestions. I miss Venus. I was always under the impression that we would have the core Destiny universe (D1) and all of the additional content would simply be added to it, (all D1 DLC) and that large scale expansion's(D2) would serve to greatly EXPAND the universe, not replace it. (WoW expansion style) Overcooked Narrative. Personally D1 always felt a bit like a reimagining of old norse mythology with a strong Lovecraftian cosmic horror undertone, set in a post-utopian future. D2 has lost a lot of its "Mythic" feeling and is now just a sci-fi shooter with the cast of Firefly acting as one-line quip-bots. I could be even more long winded about the characters, but I'll just say a certain hunter vanguard feels less like Malcolm Reynolds, and more like a Nathan Fillion blooper reel. The Eververse Thing. Sure we all hate it and blah blah blah, but I get it. No subscription fee on what is essentially a free to play MMO, means micro-transactions are a thing. Personally I would rather see all the stuff eververse is selling dropped throughout the game, (Armor from heroic strikes, ghost shells from Heroic public events, ships and sparrows from competitive PvP, Shaders scattered throughout world chests, etc..) I would be more than willing to spend real money on some of the community created armor I've seen over the years.. QUICKFIRE FEEDBACK. Endgame feels a bit hallow, but is getting better. 'Tokens' for everything is more concise, but takes away from the immersion. (Use world resources instead) Xur's potential as a weekly draw for the player population is wasted on simply peddling exotics (community has created some very cool exotics/shaders over the years.) Exotics feel less like unique niche weapons and are just better versions of what I already had. Mercury is way too f***ing small. I miss the old tower. I need an in-game grimore that logs everything I've scanned/collected with lore. We can handle an over complicated story, URRRG SHOT ALIENS, is boring. And that's all for now. D2 isn't broken, it's full potential is just being overlooked. Be Brave, Bungie, you got this. TL;DR. I've got some great Expo 1 whiteboard thoughts on Eververse, HMU.
