Skillup my life is uncomplete without full review
SkillUp, I was looking forward to your review; what happened?
Where is the review?
When are you actually going to review this?
So what happened to the full review?
Bungie needs to bring back Red War through Forsaken and all the other story, dungeon, and raid content that they removed.
Destiny is my favorite game, i hate it.
This game fascinates me. It's the first time I feel an intense desire to play a game and simultaneously realize it's just not tenable at this point. IDK why Bungie's model is so actively hostile towards newcomers (in terms of content vaulting and such). It sucks because the more I learn about the game the more I wish I could get behind it. 'Sigh' Oh well. I ain't missing the boat whenever Destiny 3 comes along I'll tell you that much.
Was there a full Final Shape review coming or is this it? Would love to hear your opinions on the expansion and raid since everything's out now
There’s no point in investing money into a game where what you pay for gets patched to be irrelevant, taken out and reskinned to be resold back to you later.
But hey… the morons are gonna moron. LOL
sad. i wanted to leave the tower and wander the shattered earth like the cosmodrome but way way more
En el momento en que vi el bolso kislux , supe que tenía que tenerlo.
Here after the release of Final Shape and I am BEYOND antsy for the full review. Psyched for Bungie and the devs that created this masterpiece.
Whenever I see Ralph doing a Destiny video I get supremely jealous of his ability to be positive and optimistic.
The only thing I don't like about the Pathfinder system, is that the Vanguard Path requires you to play PVP, which I really don't like. At least the Bounty system gave you the option to choose bounties for PVP, when you want to do them or not. Pathfinder doesn't do that, and I really don't like it, which limits me to do Pathfinder for the Paleheart area, which I don't always want to do solo, but with Clan Mates, but they're not always available when I'm on.
I can’t believe it has been 10 years since the release of D1.
I stopped buying expansions in 2019.
Of COURSE they are going to have more DLCs, they are going to have more copy and paste content with reskinned enemies and all the sheep will come buy it.
Were you planning on reviewing the campaign soon?
Now that there's a new enemy type, we should save the hive and return them cute fluffy concept art moth form.
Congrats to the people that log into Destiny every day. Those guys should get free therapy from Bungie. For everyone else, (who don't have Datto and Aztecross on their friends list) stay the hell away from this game.
I dont think destiny can do anything to bring me back, its just too much of the same
The biggest downfall for me playing all these years was being unable to play the raids cuz i dont have friends to play with…, and there hasnt really been a matchmaking system to make up for it
After a 3 1/2 break I'm back. And I have no idea wtf I'm doing 🙂 I forgot how complicated this game is for a newbie (that's how I feel right now), and I'm amazed how much of the systems I forgot. But, it's an incredible experience so far and its good to be back playing with my bois.
Why destiny 2 lasting so long I thought every new console we get a new destiny so we should be playing destiny 3 by now
i really hated prismatic. it breaks my brain
Glad you enjoyed it bro but it's still not enough for me to come back by the looks of it. Same old Same old under a new skin. New faction is cool though ngl but I just cant do it. Finally dropped this game at the end of lightfall having been with it since D1 alpha test. Hopefully it works out for them but its my Destiny to no longer play Destiny 2. I've broke free of the fomo
After having officially played and beaten TFS's campaign, this is a massive undersell of how good it actually is. This perhaps the best campaign since Taken King, beating out Forsaken in my opinion. I'll reserve my full judgement for the raid, but holy shit the way everything played out, the voice acting, the set pieces, and the action IN those set pieces, utterly beautiful. Bungie truly cooked here
“I smoked Aztecross” 😂
I'm gonna preface this comment with the fact that I no longer enjoy or play Destiny 2. That being said I still want to watch the story unfold as its been a major part of my life since I was 12 or 13.
Personally, I think Final Shape can be good and might be up there with TTK and Forsaken but I doubt it, seeing prismatic in action for the first time left me in awe up until it showed enemies who could only be really damaged after hitting them with "transcendent abilities" which only serves to enforce a playstyle and shows me they haven't really learned anything from previous outcries about champions and artifact mods.
I think they're doing what they've always done when in a bad spot and using nostalgia as a way to bait people back in, keep it good/decent for a while and then fall back into the faults of lazy time-gated game design and more Season of the Plunder type activities. I sincerely hope I'm proven wrong but, again, I doubt it. Hopefully this is where Bungie finally turns it around but its just as likely to be a mid DLC with mid seasons and even midder "Chapters" or whatever they're calling what comes next.
happy to report that final shape came out and it indeed slaps hard
Dang, if only they came out with the Dredge at launch of Destiny 2…
Imma have to get it to max out power level to end game content . But imo bungie should just release everything free before final shape and lower the price to 20 bucks . It wil go on sale , but alot of people dont even have shadowkeep .
Spoiler alert: even when playing solo legendary, the entire campaign is an absolute fucking joke in terms of difficulty. The only thing that's even remotely difficult is the fact that you're forced to play prismatic with incomplete build crafting options making it absolute and utter dogshit (atleast on titan) compared to your normal build. And even then, it was a pushover.
The opening events and cut scenes remind me of the red war when the reset d1 to d2.
i love prismatic. strand giant even come close in comparison imo
Coming back to this game after a couple of years away makes me feel like being a kid in the 90s reading X-Men comics again, trying to make sense of a bunch of story events that I missed, and have no way of accessing to experience them for context.
Last I saw, Uldren Sov was a (dead) villain who had murdered Cayde, but I guess he’s alive again, and a good guy working for the Vanguard
There’s factions of Cabal and Fallen hanging out in the Last City now. Those sure would have been some neat moments to experience, and maybe big events like those should have been in actual expansion storylines, instead of tucked away in missable seasonal content.
Oh, and Cayde’s alive again, I guess.
I'm not paying £80 for another dlc. I stopped playing when they started removing dlc content i had paid for
Oh, nice….. Played this mission and my campaign bugged? Didn't get ths subclass? Lmfao
Only noticed because I asked my friends "When exactly do we get this subclass" to their amazement/amusement I did not already have the subclass….
Oh, Bungo…
honestly, I think the game was on life support a long time ago. I quit after the witch queen, best decicion of my life. I hope people who still playing will at least have a good conclusion for the game story at least.
The non stop CCs from enemies is where I checked out. No thanks. That's the opposite of fun.
Fine.. I’ll redownload destiny 2 for the 3rd year in a row
For me the Destiny narrative has gone so far off the reservation that I lost interest long ago. They had to pack so much junk in there to continue selling quarterly DLC that the whole thing has just become convoluted. Plus, I never forgave them for killing Cayde-6 and reinventing his killer. I guess I'll just skip this DLC too and close my Destiny gameplay chapter for good.
the problem with this review is, you cant trust a review to be honest when someone is close enough to the company to get invited to the studio, bungie is well known to ghost creators who are truthfully heavily critical of the game; this creators connection to bungie implies that he hasnt called them out for the very serious issues related to destiny in its current form and as a franchise in regards to current and past gameplay, story, monetary issues as well as the future of the game being bleak with the admitting after final shape the Dev team will drastically decrease.
Wat is that gun at 11:00 with 3 blue shards next to the sight
Yup, that's destiny
It looks disappointing. Like others have said already, new players cannot even play the old content and get caught up in the story. Content we paid for, I'm done with Destiny and have been since light fall season 1. But I love your review Skill Up, one of the few unbiased opinions you can find.
