The Taken King was why I kept the game installed on my Xbox 360. I played Destiny 2's Red War and never looked back apart from one time which was a couple deathmatches with friends. Then Bungie deleted Red War after I uninstalled Destiny 1 and I was left to rot but hey at least MCC was getting updated :D
@@mmartinisgreat Halo is an old-feeling fps that still feels great (probably because it invented the modern fps format.) Good story too, I came into the franchise late, played Reach and 4 and loved them only to learn that the core fans hated them. But yeah, I try not to say harsh words on the internet (cause it could bite me in the future), but screw Destiny. Screw this shameless, useless, idiotic embarrassment of a game and story that wondrously showcased almost everything wrong with the modern gaming industry through every facet of it's existence. Such an interesting premise wasted on easily the worst big-budget game I have ever played.

I think my brother made the best possible analogy for this game “Destiny is like an empty tortilla, and you have to pay extra for all the ingredients on the inside that make it a burrito”
There’s a key difference between this and battlefront 2. B2 has a terrible story but it has a story. People say that Destiny’s story is stupid, but that’s not true. It’s actually admirable how well the game refuses to give you a story. Playing Destiny felt like cross examining a murderer. The energy and creativity that it put into avoiding my questions is phenomenal.
@@jamesmoseley5428 Which is especially hilarious considering all of the useless exposition the game dumps on you. It gives you plenty of answers just not the answers you actually want.
Gerald Justice doesn’t make the other characters well written in game though. Lore isn’t enough to make a character or world interesting unless it’s presented in a really engaging and well presented way (I.e. every from software game) and it really isn’t in destiny since you have to leave the game to learn the lore
Y'know, when I was younger, I actually enjoyed the mindless entertainment of Destiny. I know it has mountains of problems, but it holds a special place in my heart.
Yeah, I'm going to say no on that when it came to my experience. Even when I was a young kid and teen, I couldn't stand games where you just do a shitload repetitive gameplay with no reason. It was one of the reasons I actually _liked_ Bungie's Halo games. Because it really had a neat concept, and different, unique sequels. Destiny was so hyped and was one of the worst letdowns I've ever experienced.

I think the issue with Destiny is that they tried to be TOO vague and mysterious about what the darkness is. I remember how lots of fans were trying to figure out exactly what the darkness was for a while with a bunch of theories being presented but in end nothing was final until Bungie decided to start over with a second game.
@⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ Yes it would. She didn't have time to explain, presumably, and that's the end. It adds nothing to say "I don't have time to explain why I don't have time to explain why I don't ..."
That's what Bungie said about why they couldn't give the players any God damn information about the game. They have time to charge ass loads of money for weak ass "expansions" in Destiny 2 though, greedy scumbags. Although, I wouldn't really call something an "expansion" if they remove 10 times the content they add.

Yeah now from what I heard NetEase games which is the company that they’re working with now. Someone mentioned that they are way worse than Activision. So basically they left a big mistake for an even bigger mistake.
Dan 1031 Well the reason why they left Microsoft is because Microsoft drove them away, because they wanted to make other games other than halo but Microsoft wouldn’t let them. Microsoft just wanted them to only make halo and that’s what caused them to leave.
Brandon's EliteTV Yeah I mean maybe Microsoft were miss treating Bungie I don’t know? But in Microsoft ever scrap Joe staten’s story and caused him to quit? No. Did they ever fire Marty O’Donnell? No. So it seems to me and everyone else that Microsoft treated them way better than Activision.
I feel you on this, took almost 7 hours on mine and the game lags and breaks for me damn near every time i play it. rather sad how far the gaming industry has fallen
Floyd May I dont understand how. There is only 2 or 3 maps for each game type. Most are just variants of the same map. And the campaign is not that big. Its fucking ridiculous.
Xander French I don't recall The Last Of Us being attached to a lot of hype. But yeah, Breath of The Wild did live up to it. Other recent games that in my opinion, also lived up to the hype are: The Witcher 3 Titanfall 2 Mario Odyssey Horizon Zero Dawn
Bungie always had a good plan for this game, this plan was compromised by Activision. All of the content was meant to be in the base game but no, Activision made everything behind a pay wall which fucked the game over
Stop blaming Activision and forgiving Bungie, they made the game, they agreed and also got paid they are to blame. Many companies work like that and still provide something good.
23:45 Marty O'Donnel had exactly this to say about Destiny when he was playing through The Library in Halo CE again on RUclips. Marty, The Composer of the score for both Halo and Destiny - compared Destiny to the Library, arguably the most hated level in Halo. Let that sink in for a minute.
@@hsmileyface8308 your insinuating that since they split destiny is good now. but destiny launched and came to the end of its life span with activision still in business with them with the rise of Iron Dlc
I know, year old comment. But he actually had personality, not really interesting in game (not mentioning lore) problem with D1 is all the characters are vending machines just giving you loot. D2 year 1 campaign actually was a huge step up in the story aspect compared to D1 showing us more from the Vanguard, and other side characters and banter during strikes and adventures. Year 1 was just shit because of double primary, lack of post content and very different raid.
Yeah Cayde 6 was actually interesting and much akin to what I'd expect Nathan Fillion's lifestyle to be like, and because he voiced Buck and random Marines in the Halo series.
15:50 A prologue is actually a pretty good idea. Gears of war kinda does. Instead of telling you everything about everything that lead up to the 4th game, they instead let you take part in those past wars. They SHOW you and let you experience the gears universe instead of just TELLING you.
Yeah, that's my general sentiment. Definitely not bad, but it was just...serviceable. It never felt as dire as the previous games, I can't really put my finger on it...well, except for the Deebees. I really don't like them. They're too silly as an enemy, should've been Onyx Guards or something.
I sunk a hefty amount of hours into playing Destiny 1 and 2, and I could not tell you a single thing about any of the characters/ story/ lore that is associated with either game. I just think the combat and gameplay feel real good, and I like the feeling of constantly earning more powerful weapons/gear.
I mean it’s not that hard to figure out. Zavala is the lead titan commander,Ikora is the lead warlock and cayde was the lead hunter and now the dude that runs gambit is the lead hunter. Zavala,cayde and Ikora were the three leaders of the guardians until cayde got killed in the forsaken dlc of destiny 2. We get our powers from the traveller which gives us the light and the main enemy “the darkness” wishes to snuff out and kill the light ie the traveller. There’s whole RUclips videos out on the destiny lore of you actually care about it
I blame the executives for rejecting Joe Staten's masterpiece of a story that was 90x more interesting than what they ended up throwing together in a less than a year before launch. Every time I think of what Destiny could have been, I am filled with regrets.
@@arollingkinoall dlc has.been. it's been making pvp.unbalenced for anyone who doesn't have dlc and it's so little content for the price their asking. Theirs a reason no one complains about skyrims or doom eternal dlc and thats because it's sufficient content
Omg I forgot about that line. That line deserves its own docu-series on how truly bad it was and how it was the absolute low point in human story telling. I cringed so hard I thought I was going to turn into a raisin the first time I heard it.
@@Gojin91 lets take a look at halo CE level design for an example. In destiny every mission is open to you. You reach at certain place and the enemies are placed in certain points (after the horde trigger) which you need to defeat them. The place is structured with multiple paths and they support multiple different playstyles i can literaly snipe with a invisible ranger, explode everything with an arcane or use my physical brute force to destroy everything. Theres not just the skill setup but also the LOTS of weapons to weapon's sandbox and the enemies react differently for each weapon you use. So you said halo have variety right? Of course that im CE you have the multiple path thing. But stealth? How you even do that? The analog stick button is the button to sneak. You dont have the control of its sensibility and when you would stand again because of that, the paths in most of the areas have soldiers helping you and them just sucks because you cant sneak with them right there. And the weapons? Theres no silenced weapon in any halo game aside of ODST.How da fuck you stealth in there? And halo 2 and 4 are so fucking linear that you just shoot your way throught. Do you want to talk about the level design? Because i remember the Ce's library and most of its levels after the flood reveal. People just loves to praise CE for weapon's sandbox too, they just kinda forget you have just 10 weapons and you have to switch between 2 of them everytime In destiny we have more than 200 weapons and we can carry them in inventory. Im sorry but i cant even find a way where halo is more intuitive than destiny
@@Jrdotan Truth and Reconciliation was a stealth mission, incentivizing the use of Melee and well placed sniper shots, reach had a similar mission. In destiny you cant compare number of weapons, because of the looter aspect which in terms of the discussion doesnt matter, you have effectively the same guns with slight differences. Fundamental gameplay in destiny boils down to go to this area protect Ghost and shoot baddies. There is no way to pacifist run Destiny. Theres no equivalent to LASO or SLASO which might I add the "Story" in destiny doesnt exist in it's own game it exists in material you have to unlock in game and go to outside source to read. Halo CE also delivered on its promises on advertising.
The strongest feeling Destiny made me feel was frustration after my ghost told me to protect him while he hacked into something for the 300th time. I played this game for like 2 hours a few days after it first came out and I'm still mildly annoyed at how repetitive and empty it was.
After all of the DLC’s, I gotta day the game came full circle. I had an absolute blast, possibly the best times with my buddies going through raids and grinding.
I played destiny well after release, the Taken King had already released, and I actually didn't understand that the Taken King plotline wasn't the main plotline. When you opened the game it said "Destiny: the Taken King" so I figured it was the main plot. When I realized that random shit with the Black Garden was the original plot I was stunned
Every time the pitch of a Hollywood movie claims someone is being pursued by 'dark forces' they usually turn out to be some PMCs driving in black SUVs, so in my head whenever someone mentions 'dark forces' or 'darkness' I just assume that's what it is.
No it’s shoot monsters in a linear path get somewhere shoot more monsters get ghost to scan some shit they don’t explain he just says “Ok got the data” *Mission Completed*
Considering these weapons look and feel so boring, I wouldn't be surprised if they take it a step further by introducing a glass of water. You drink it, and all your enemies die.

Yea I was on the hype train for the first one but I never got into the game like that I completed the story and completed to dlcs like barebones didn’t even buy the second one, I’m just watching this video cause I like act man vids and cause of the fallout 76 shit
@Nagato is better than Punk Naruto I wasn't claiming it was... none the less, there are arguments on this platform that say tenet is a "modern masterpiece".
I bet those people who said it was a masterpiece only bcs they hyped the movie before it released, and won’t admit how the movie isn’t actually that good to be called a masterpiece
Dark Souls actually makes a great comparison. What's the first thing in Dark Souls? An exposition dump. And it's handled _really well_ because it's a narration told with the texture of an ancient legend or some such, and it quickly and succinctly establishes the major backstory of the world without going into intricate detail. And then all the _actual plot_ of the game itself is full of layers upon layers. There's a really basic, simple, straightforward story that gets handed to you, but underneath that are suggestions and implications and little details here and there that you can use to _infer_ completely new information. Destiny is just the cliffnotes version of every single Bungie game ever made.
@@jhonnoilcringeincarnato8593 as much as people shit on the more objective-oriented Zombies modes, they do a really good job of telling the larger narrative, and the maps themselves blend into the storytelling extremely well. CoD Zombies should be a standalone title. It deserves it. Except the Sledgehammer and Infinity Ward zombies. They just suck. Really hard. So, really, just the Treyarch zombies.
Seeing the act man absolutely flame D1’s campaign (very much deserved) and comparing that to how good the seasonal stories are now just makes me feel so happy for some reason. Knowing the series has grown so much from a storytelling standpoint feels so good
It really has. My whole clan loves looking for new lore pages so they can learn more scraps of info they can put together to make guesses about where the story is going. Thats unique to destiny 2 and seeing this video shows me just how far they have come.
i actually find it to be worse thaan the original tbh. the story is better but the community as a whole got worse. its such a strange thing to see that happen. peak destiny was rise of iron and then d2 dropped and every just kinda rolled with it for a bit but somehow the fucked it worse than d1. all that time fixing the main campaign and they forgot to make the endgame experience worth a damn. id take lauch d1 over launch d2 any day of the week
@@DaToby98 i remember starting with Destiny 2 so i didnt have a clue how bad it really was. Then i saw how Destiny 1 had much more than we did in 2017 with d2 i got mad. Glad the game is on the right path now
The only effect Destiny had on me was it was my first FPS. I thought it was cool at the time, but when I tried CoD (MW3 to be exact) I realized how boring Destiny actually was.

See this is why i cant be positive about destiny 2. Its too similar to this heaping pile of garbage and the only improvements are just common sense. Like that shit shoulda been there from day one of the first game. So yea, as a person who has invested time into this game, i can say that it has so mich potential but is just not there. The new game is better when it comes to chores and loot drops and story but still lacks in level design, weaponry (reskins), and depth of upgrading ur character. It doesnt help that it looks and feels the same and still has 30 fps. Basically what we got now should have been what was released years ago and today we should be playing something mind blowing
9 hour downloads…damn I remember downloading Battlefield 4 on my PS3, a 24 hour download, had to get out of bed every 2 hours to make sure the system hadn’t shut off because rest mode and automatic downloads didn’t exist yet Those were the days I don’t miss
Until just recently in my rural area all we had was DSL (for 90$ a month). 1GB took 2 hours to download. MW took like 2 weeks, partially because they released an update and my download restarted at like 80% or so. Luckily rest mode downloading was a thing.
Great video. I was never confused about the story until now. I could accept easily that it was light vs dark, but my problem was with how these were represented in the game... The Traveller, the Speaker, the Stranger all seemed to exist as engines of intrigue. I loved it then. It was only week into D2 when I started wondering things like 'Where did the Stagger go?' 'The Speaker is dead, do we need him for anything? What does he even do?'
it's PAINFULLY obvious "10 year plan" means for the franchise, not a single installment. in that regard, YES halo did have 10 year plan with just bungie alone. the rumors i followed which make more sense as to what went wrong talked of how the story was gutted months before release and key talent began leaving the studio. they hobbled together a shell of a game that was empty on the inside.
I can understand Bungie for wanting to get away from Microsoft. I really do. Creative Freedom is a good thing to its core, and it was a bold and brave move on their part. But what MADNESS, persuaded them to go and sell their souls, to one of the most strong armed oppressors in the history of gaming? Fucking Activision!? They'd have been better with EA, and that's really saying something! Why did they even bother with leaving Microsoft if they were going to do that? Microsoft aren't great but they aren't nearly on the same cancerous level as Activision. They actually have some credibility and occasionally release good games.
I loved destiny and destiny 2 and everything about them...... but I do have to agree with what he is saying about the single player campaign and how it was awful... love your videos man and even if I don't 100% agree with them, I still enjoy watching and hearing other people's opinions on games I love to play. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
When I play Destiny 1 the biggest feelings of emotion I had four it would have to be in the beginning, after the prologue. When your Ghost is looking for you, when it finds you and you go through the building the first time and then you find your fist ship. It's the feeling of mystery, excitment, intimidation, and thrill. After that its just Bullshit, and random people you see online like in an MmoRpg. Rpg's aren't bad but this game wants to be one so bad. But the game still has potential to grow
I have to disagree with a single point: Game design actually is easy. Knowing what systems you're using, why they're used, how to balance them, all that stuff is easy peasy lemon squeasy. It's so easy a website full of unpublished amateur game devs have figured it all out. The "hard part" of game design is just implementation. Implementation means making minor tweaks to ensure balance, to ensure fun, and to ensure a quality game. The other "hard part" of game design is keeping passion for a project high enough that you actually CARE about the finished product and don't say, "eh, good enough". Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 suffer from these "hard parts". They made no tweaks to ensure balance. No tweaks to ensure fun. To tweaks to ensure a quality game. Their passion for the project was very low or non-existent. But actual game design itself? Hell, I went to their forums a month after Destiny 1 released. I'd run all the content except the Raid and the Nightfall (because I didn't have a group to run it with) and decided to critique the game someplace they could find it. I outlined every system in their game that was screwed up and why it was designed wrong. I outlined how they could fix it. Their "marks" currency capped at 200? No reason to do that except to keep people from dismantling the gear for the upgrade materials or to keep them from getting the DLC gear immediately upon launch. Except, there's a better way to fix that. Namely, OFFER MORE THAN A SINGLE SET OF GEAR FOR EACH CLASS. PROVIDE 10 DIFFERENT GEAR OPTIONS SO THAT THE MARKS ARE USED MORE OFTEN. Simple. Easy. Requires very little work within any Game Engine they use. Their glimmer cap of 25K also made no sense when the stuff was so easy to earn and was unspendable on anything. I mean, the whole game was full of "bad design", and it existed as "bad design" in order to get stupid players to buy the DLC or to spend a lot of time grinding for nearly no content. Hell, I can program three different gaming engines to have an "infinite inventory" and "infinite bank", but Bungie couldn't do that at all? They cited "memory problems"? Seriously? What kind of fucked up backward coding were they DOING? In most engines an "infinite inventory" is literally like 50 lines of code. An "infinite bank inventory" is literally like 25 more lines of code. Near as I can tell (and they never elaborated on it), their "memory issue" with the inventory was on SERVER SIDE. Namely, they had this amount of memory they wanted to store on their own servers and were unwilling to budge on making it larger for fear it would cost more or create a larger "lag time" to loading into the game. At which point, you have to ask, "so... why aren't you using compression?". Or, even better, "why the arbitrary limit at all? Especially when the only time you'd need to access the data in your bank is when you access the bank". Basically, they don't know shit about even programming. And I mean, it's not like even I know anything about programming, 'cause I seriously don't know jack about it. What little I can code is so basic and roundabout and inefficient... But, when I could do the job better? We've got some serious fucking problems. It isn't that "game design is hard". Because it's not. Everyone uses an engine with pre-built features or easily modifiable features. The only "hard part" about game design is CARING ENOUGH ABOUT PRODUCING A QUALITY PRODUCT. That's it.
I thought destiny was going to be a bit of a borderlands / mass effect 2 hybrid , multiple worlds to explore,interesting weapons , less cartoony and a bit more story and depth to the world than the borderlands games, I was really looking forward to it. I wasn't a happy lad when I got it ... Could have been so good
I regret the time and money I spent on this game and DLCs. I don't even understand why I kept playing it and spent over 1000h and keep doinf THE SAME levels and boring exotic quests
Mateusz Jaskolski Same reason my grandma is addicted to playing slot machines and my niece addicted to candy crush. It's gambling like Skinner box design. Designed to get you high from the roll of the dice and that one time you got something cool. You keep rolling and rolling and playing and playing. Act Man has a wonderful video about it and how this tactic has wormed it's way to almost every game these days, no longer the speciality of scummy mobile games preying on the young and ignorant, now preying on the complacent but dumb.
Ziggaton Meh I think there's a difference - I regret paying for shitty cut content and what are you talking about is this case, packs random gambling. Both are bad.
I mean to say Destiny and Diablo like games are all about that gambling like design. Beating bosses and rolling dice to get better weapons which let you keep rolling dice to get ever better weapons.
Nice video as always Act Man, I've been playing Destiny since the beta days way back in 2014 and I remember when the story of vanilla Destiny ended I remember sitting there somewhat confused and not knowing what to feel. It was such a shame because this universe is so fascinating but they never explore it in game, they've got the lore, which I've read much of, but again the lore for some reason, never appeared in game. Also the original Destiny story makes Halo 5's story look like the pinnacle of video game storytelling.
The only thing Destiny has going on for its a lot of eye candy and the lore (the raids are cool too, but after a while they become stale). Overall, its boring. The story is a chore, the characters are as flat as iCarly and their is no DLC, you just pay $40 dollars for a "key" to access already ingame content.
If I had three wishes, one of them would be for these game devs and writers you have to watch your review a thousand times in it's entirety. Gaming is my passion and I'm glad I didn't spend money on this.
If you are a single player lover you wouldn’t have liked destiny. But if you liked doing raids, Collecting armory, Destroying in extremely competitive pvp. playing the game with endless stuff to do was great. That being said I put in 1000+ hours into destiny.
If I had three wishes the first would be to stop Activision from tampering with Destiny 1 as I imagine the entire world would have been different if Destiny 1 was what it was originally meant to be before Activision butchered it. Second wish would be for Bungie to still own Halo and the last wish would to never run out of money

But yeah, I try not to say harsh words on the internet (cause it could bite me in the future), but screw Destiny. Screw this shameless, useless, idiotic embarrassment of a game and story that wondrously showcased almost everything wrong with the modern gaming industry through every facet of it's existence. Such an interesting premise wasted on easily the worst big-budget game I have ever played.

There’s a key difference between this and battlefront 2. B2 has a terrible story but it has a story. People say that Destiny’s story is stupid, but that’s not true. It’s actually admirable how well the game refuses to give you a story. Playing Destiny felt like cross examining a murderer. The energy and creativity that it put into avoiding my questions is phenomenal.

Since when?
Cade was good but there is so much lore in the cards that everybody can be like cade
Gerald Justice doesn’t make the other characters well written in game though. Lore isn’t enough to make a character or world interesting unless it’s presented in a really engaging and well presented way (I.e. every from software game) and it really isn’t in destiny since you have to leave the game to learn the lore

Y'know, when I was younger, I actually enjoyed the mindless entertainment of Destiny. I know it has mountains of problems, but it holds a special place in my heart.
Y same
sometimes is good to let the feelings take over the logic
Yeah, I'm going to say no on that when it came to my experience. Even when I was a young kid and teen, I couldn't stand games where you just do a shitload repetitive gameplay with no reason. It was one of the reasons I actually _liked_ Bungie's Halo games. Because it really had a neat concept, and different, unique sequels. Destiny was so hyped and was one of the worst letdowns I've ever experienced.
Destiny has amazing gunplay. That’s about all that’s good about it.
You're still a kid.
Destiny, a game so unbelievably terrible it makes Halo 5 look good
It's time for one final dump on Destiny, and I'll be the last to spread my cheeks. ENJOY!

Spartan ops: Still a better story than Destiny's main campaign
This is the saddest and truest thing I have read in a long time
Let me correct you destinys original campaign
What was so bad about Spartan Ops? I can't know even though I played it because it didn't have cutscenes in the MCC version.
At least it had a great villain(julmdama) too bad he was killed in level one of halo 5.
Wasn't the Spartan Ops Story good but the gameplay was too repetitive?
When your game has less character than Halo 5.
Ford Fan01 Halo 5 was a game? I thought it was a walk over there and talk to that guy simulator.
And, destiny 2 was a farming simulator.
Halo 5? Oh that game in my trashcan
Dayum
I think the issue with Destiny is that they tried to be TOO vague and mysterious about what the darkness is. I remember how lots of fans were trying to figure out exactly what the darkness was for a while with a bunch of theories being presented but in end nothing was final until Bungie decided to start over with a second game.
I don't even have time to explain, why I don't have time to explain.

I was so bored playing I didn't even realize she said this
@⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ Yes it would. She didn't have time to explain, presumably, and that's the end. It adds nothing to say "I don't have time to explain why I don't have time to explain why I don't ..."
i hope our guardian in the dlc says " you have time to explain now?" that would be epic
That's what Bungie said about why they couldn't give the players any God damn information about the game.
They have time to charge ass loads of money for weak ass "expansions" in Destiny 2 though, greedy scumbags. Although, I wouldn't really call something an "expansion" if they remove 10 times the content they add.

Poor Jason, Marty and Joe, they could’ve created an other Halo but Activision had to intervene
Yeah now from what I heard NetEase games which is the company that they’re working with now. Someone mentioned that they are way worse than Activision. So basically they left a big mistake for an even bigger mistake.
Jacob Levesque they shouldn’t have left Microsoft
Dan 1031 Well the reason why they left Microsoft is because Microsoft drove them away, because they wanted to make other games other than halo but Microsoft wouldn’t let them. Microsoft just wanted them to only make halo and that’s what caused them to leave.
@@wizardgaming3313 funny cause Post Bungie Halo are more enjoyable than Destiny 1&2

The Witcher 3
Titanfall 2
Mario Odyssey
Horizon Zero Dawn
not many games actually lived up to the hype, people got stop overhyping games so much
Cristóbal Duchén- Agreed
I know it's overused, but Warframe offers more than you expected from a F2P game. Im gameplay, content, rewards, how fair it is and lore.
Bungie always had a good plan for this game, this plan was compromised by Activision. All of the content was meant to be in the base game but no, Activision made everything behind a pay wall which fucked the game over
Still wouldn't have helped the bad writing.
Stop blaming Activision and forgiving Bungie, they made the game, they agreed and also got paid they are to blame. Many companies work like that and still provide something good.
@@sidneysmith6698 Joe Staten was fired that's why

monotone speeches. literally why everyone loves cayde. he's the ONLY interesting character in D2
I know, year old comment.
But he actually had personality, not really interesting in game (not mentioning lore) problem with D1 is all the characters are vending machines just giving you loot.
D2 year 1 campaign actually was a huge step up in the story aspect compared to D1 showing us more from the Vanguard, and other side characters and banter during strikes and adventures. Year 1 was just shit because of double primary, lack of post content and very different raid.
Yeah Cayde 6 was actually interesting and much akin to what I'd expect Nathan Fillion's lifestyle to be like, and because he voiced Buck and random Marines in the Halo series.
15:50
A prologue is actually a pretty good idea. Gears of war kinda does. Instead of telling you everything about everything that lead up to the 4th game, they instead let you take part in those past wars. They SHOW you and let you experience the gears universe instead of just TELLING you.
Best part of that game
slvrcobra1337 Did you like the rest of the game? I liked it but i thought the atmosphere wasnt as good as it was in the old games.
Yeah, that's my general sentiment. Definitely not bad, but it was just...serviceable. It never felt as dire as the previous games, I can't really put my finger on it...well, except for the Deebees. I really don't like them. They're too silly as an enemy, should've been Onyx Guards or something.
I sunk a hefty amount of hours into playing Destiny 1 and 2, and I could not tell you a single thing about any of the characters/ story/ lore that is associated with either game. I just think the combat and gameplay feel real good, and I like the feeling of constantly earning more powerful weapons/gear.
This pretty much sums it, it ain't much but it kept me playing it for 3 years straight
I mean it’s not that hard to figure out. Zavala is the lead titan commander,Ikora is the lead warlock and cayde was the lead hunter and now the dude that runs gambit is the lead hunter. Zavala,cayde and Ikora were the three leaders of the guardians until cayde got killed in the forsaken dlc of destiny 2. We get our powers from the traveller which gives us the light and the main enemy “the darkness” wishes to snuff out and kill the light ie the traveller. There’s whole RUclips videos out on the destiny lore of you actually care about it
But, why get better gear? Why, when you're just going to put the game down at some point? Endings are just as necessary as beginnings
I blame the executives for rejecting Joe Staten's masterpiece of a story that was 90x more interesting than what they ended up throwing together in a less than a year before launch.

70% of the game is horde mode... with cloaks
Dont forget skirts
I mean. Like halo? But no one hates halo hahaha
@@Jrdotan halo has vehicle sections, stealth missions and proper variety. They also didn't bait and switch anything with the advertising.
@@Gojin91 lets take a look at halo CE level design for an example.
In destiny every mission is open to you. You reach at certain place and the enemies are placed in certain points (after the horde trigger) which you need to defeat them. The place is structured with multiple paths and they support multiple different playstyles i can literaly snipe with a invisible ranger, explode everything with an arcane or use my physical brute force to destroy everything. Theres not just the skill setup but also the LOTS of weapons to weapon's sandbox and the enemies react differently for each weapon you use.
So you said halo have variety right? Of course that im CE you have the multiple path thing. But stealth? How you even do that? The analog stick button is the button to sneak. You dont have the control of its sensibility and when you would stand again because of that, the paths in most of the areas have soldiers helping you and them just sucks because you cant sneak with them right there.
And the weapons? Theres no silenced weapon in any halo game aside of ODST.How da fuck you stealth in there?
And halo 2 and 4 are so fucking linear that you just shoot your way throught.
Do you want to talk about the level design? Because i remember the Ce's library and most of its levels after the flood reveal.
People just loves to praise CE for weapon's sandbox too, they just kinda forget you have just 10 weapons and you have to switch between 2 of them everytime
In destiny we have more than 200 weapons and we can carry them in inventory.
Im sorry but i cant even find a way where halo is more intuitive than destiny
@@Jrdotan Truth and Reconciliation was a stealth mission, incentivizing the use of Melee and well placed sniper shots, reach had a similar mission.
In destiny you cant compare number of weapons, because of the looter aspect which in terms of the discussion doesnt matter, you have effectively the same guns with slight differences. Fundamental gameplay in destiny boils down to go to this area protect Ghost and shoot baddies. There is no way to pacifist run Destiny. Theres no equivalent to LASO or SLASO which might I add the "Story" in destiny doesnt exist in it's own game it exists in material you have to unlock in game and go to outside source to read. Halo CE also delivered on its promises on advertising.
I don't even need to watch the video, the story mode was bad because it didn't have a story in the first place
Specter knight that's because u are dumb and u can't get it
Droxer GD ooorrrrrr the game didn't have a story ...
Multiplayer wasn't that bad I love the chaos
What was the story then.
The strongest feeling Destiny made me feel was frustration after my ghost told me to protect him while he hacked into something for the 300th time. I played this game for like 2 hours a few days after it first came out and I'm still mildly annoyed at how repetitive and empty it was.

I played destiny well after release, the Taken King had already released, and I actually didn't understand that the Taken King plotline wasn't the main plotline. When you opened the game it said "Destiny: the Taken King" so I figured it was the main plot. When I realized that random shit with the Black Garden was the original plot I was stunned
😂
Just to add, apparently Bungie had no clue what the Darkness was. xD
Every time the pitch of a Hollywood movie claims someone is being pursued by 'dark forces' they usually turn out to be some PMCs driving in black SUVs, so in my head whenever someone mentions 'dark forces' or 'darkness' I just assume that's what it is.
In game informer, the lead designer admitted they weren't sure entirely what the darkness was when they made the story

And it's handled _really well_ because it's a narration told with the texture of an ancient legend or some such, and it quickly and succinctly establishes the major backstory of the world without going into intricate detail.
And then all the _actual plot_ of the game itself is full of layers upon layers. There's a really basic, simple, straightforward story that gets handed to you, but underneath that are suggestions and implications and little details here and there that you can use to _infer_ completely new information.

@@Quietplague2000 D2 launch was fine for abt a month. Then it went shit real quick
@@DaToby98 i remember starting with Destiny 2 so i didnt have a clue how bad it really was. Then i saw how Destiny 1 had much more than we did in 2017 with d2 i got mad. Glad the game is on the right path now
The only effect Destiny had on me was it was my first FPS. I thought it was cool at the time, but when I tried CoD (MW3 to be exact) I realized how boring Destiny actually was.
I was so happy to get to finally play a Bungie game after I bought a PS3 over 360, only for the game to be boring.
sadly they kept the good and fun content in dlcs that costs almost as much the game costed

When is the "why is halo 2's campaign so hard video with hokiebird coming out?"
Been pushed back on that a bit, had to switch gears and finish these two videos on Destiny. And I got a PAX video I'm obligated to make/finish so after that I'll be working on that with Hokie! Thanks for the patience, my dude!

See this is why i cant be positive about destiny 2. Its too similar to this heaping pile of garbage and the only improvements are just common sense. Like that shit shoulda been there from day one of the first game. So yea, as a person who has invested time into this game, i can say that it has so mich potential but is just not there. The new game is better when it comes to chores and loot drops and story but still lacks in level design, weaponry (reskins), and depth of upgrading ur character. It doesnt help that it looks and feels the same and still has 30 fps. Basically what we got now should have been what was released years ago and today we should be playing something mind blowing
8:58 are you suggesting that The Room was a good movie??
finally, someone agrees with me!

9 hour downloads…damn I remember downloading Battlefield 4 on my PS3, a 24 hour download, had to get out of bed every 2 hours to make sure the system hadn’t shut off because rest mode and automatic downloads didn’t exist yet
Those were the days I don’t miss
Until just recently in my rural area all we had was DSL (for 90$ a month). 1GB took 2 hours to download. MW took like 2 weeks, partially because they released an update and my download restarted at like 80% or so. Luckily rest mode downloading was a thing.
Oh you wanna play with yours friends and progress “BUY OUR DLC”
Fall out wolf 23 thats the fucking point of a dlc is extra content why the hell would they drop a dlc and not make you buy it and add a lot of stuff
@@skinnylmao are you a spokesperson for Bungie or something, you seem offended by the truth?

Great video.
I was never confused about the story until now. I could accept easily that it was light vs dark, but my problem was with how these were represented in the game... The Traveller, the Speaker, the Stranger all seemed to exist as engines of intrigue. I loved it then. It was only week into D2 when I started wondering things like 'Where did the Stagger go?' 'The Speaker is dead, do we need him for anything? What does he even do?'
And that another reason deleting content from your game is bad especially.
Stagger?

Nahuel Arroyo That’s what I did with Destiny, and I’m in America and it was with an Xbox and it still took all night
it's PAINFULLY obvious "10 year plan" means for the franchise, not a single installment. in that regard, YES halo did have 10 year plan with just bungie alone. the rumors i followed which make more sense as to what went wrong talked of how the story was gutted months before release and key talent began leaving the studio. they hobbled together a shell of a game that was empty on the inside.
MrHandss
Same happened with 2,they will never reach 10 years.
Your use of Rush's "Show Don't Tell" made my day.
got halfway through the video and realized "oh shit, this is destiny 1." it literally looks the exact same to destiny 2. so sad.
Lol
Angry Joe's Speaker: "I could tell you... but I won't, bwahahaha!"
I can understand Bungie for wanting to get away from Microsoft. I really do. Creative Freedom is a good thing to its core, and it was a bold and brave move on their part. But what MADNESS, persuaded them to go and sell their souls, to one of the most strong armed oppressors in the history of gaming?
Fucking Activision!? They'd have been better with EA, and that's really saying something!
Why did they even bother with leaving Microsoft if they were going to do that? Microsoft aren't great but they aren't nearly on the same cancerous level as Activision. They actually have some credibility and occasionally release good games.
HisHolyMajesty Sometimes restraint can be a helpful good thing.
I remember playing this and thinking “I thought this was supposed to be the next halo”
I loved destiny and destiny 2 and everything about them...... but I do have to agree with what he is saying about the single player campaign and how it was awful... love your videos man and even if I don't 100% agree with them, I still enjoy watching and hearing other people's opinions on games I love to play. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
I got completely triggered when I saw the thumbnail but then when I thought about it I was like,
“Shit dude, he’s right!”
Yeah... yeah same tbh... It is ALL exposition... all grimour cards. That's where the lore is...
When I play Destiny 1 the biggest feelings of emotion I had four it would have to be in the beginning, after the prologue. When your Ghost is looking for you, when it finds you and you go through the building the first time and then you find your fist ship.
It's the feeling of mystery, excitment, intimidation, and thrill. After that its just Bullshit, and random people you see online like in an MmoRpg. Rpg's aren't bad but this game wants to be one so bad.
But the game still has potential to grow
Even though I’m a fanboy, I can definitely say this is right. Story’s absolutely pathetic weaselshit and there’s no way around it
How do i washed the taste of shit out of my mouth?
Sold my ghost edition for more money than it cost me!
I have to disagree with a single point:
Game design actually is easy. Knowing what systems you're using, why they're used, how to balance them, all that stuff is easy peasy lemon squeasy. It's so easy a website full of unpublished amateur game devs have figured it all out.
The "hard part" of game design is just implementation. Implementation means making minor tweaks to ensure balance, to ensure fun, and to ensure a quality game.
The other "hard part" of game design is keeping passion for a project high enough that you actually CARE about the finished product and don't say, "eh, good enough".
Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 suffer from these "hard parts". They made no tweaks to ensure balance. No tweaks to ensure fun. To tweaks to ensure a quality game. Their passion for the project was very low or non-existent.
But actual game design itself?
Hell, I went to their forums a month after Destiny 1 released. I'd run all the content except the Raid and the Nightfall (because I didn't have a group to run it with) and decided to critique the game someplace they could find it. I outlined every system in their game that was screwed up and why it was designed wrong. I outlined how they could fix it.
Their "marks" currency capped at 200? No reason to do that except to keep people from dismantling the gear for the upgrade materials or to keep them from getting the DLC gear immediately upon launch. Except, there's a better way to fix that. Namely, OFFER MORE THAN A SINGLE SET OF GEAR FOR EACH CLASS. PROVIDE 10 DIFFERENT GEAR OPTIONS SO THAT THE MARKS ARE USED MORE OFTEN. Simple. Easy. Requires very little work within any Game Engine they use.
Their glimmer cap of 25K also made no sense when the stuff was so easy to earn and was unspendable on anything.
I mean, the whole game was full of "bad design", and it existed as "bad design" in order to get stupid players to buy the DLC or to spend a lot of time grinding for nearly no content.
Hell, I can program three different gaming engines to have an "infinite inventory" and "infinite bank", but Bungie couldn't do that at all? They cited "memory problems"? Seriously? What kind of fucked up backward coding were they DOING? In most engines an "infinite inventory" is literally like 50 lines of code. An "infinite bank inventory" is literally like 25 more lines of code.
Near as I can tell (and they never elaborated on it), their "memory issue" with the inventory was on SERVER SIDE. Namely, they had this amount of memory they wanted to store on their own servers and were unwilling to budge on making it larger for fear it would cost more or create a larger "lag time" to loading into the game. At which point, you have to ask, "so... why aren't you using compression?". Or, even better, "why the arbitrary limit at all? Especially when the only time you'd need to access the data in your bank is when you access the bank".
Basically, they don't know shit about even programming. And I mean, it's not like even I know anything about programming, 'cause I seriously don't know jack about it. What little I can code is so basic and roundabout and inefficient... But, when I could do the job better? We've got some serious fucking problems.
It isn't that "game design is hard". Because it's not. Everyone uses an engine with pre-built features or easily modifiable features. The only "hard part" about game design is CARING ENOUGH ABOUT PRODUCING A QUALITY PRODUCT. That's it.
Good comparison to borderlands. I always call Destiny just borderlands with better graphics and zero charm.
And zero fun
graphics is more of a subjective thing though.. boarderlands has an art style
I thought destiny was going to be a bit of a borderlands / mass effect 2 hybrid , multiple worlds to explore,interesting weapons , less cartoony and a bit more story and depth to the world than the borderlands games, I was really looking forward to it. I wasn't a happy lad when I got it ... Could have been so good
But Borderlands is better than Destiny, MUCH better.
Out of every game I have ever played, this is the one I regret the most.
Huge fan of Bungie. I even have a Master Chief helmet
Imagine if the darkness was as cool as the borg from startrek
I regret the time and money I spent on this game and DLCs. I don't even understand why I kept playing it and spent over 1000h and keep doinf THE SAME levels and boring exotic quests
Mateusz Jaskolski Same reason my grandma is addicted to playing slot machines and my niece addicted to candy crush. It's gambling like Skinner box design. Designed to get you high from the roll of the dice and that one time you got something cool. You keep rolling and rolling and playing and playing. Act Man has a wonderful video about it and how this tactic has wormed it's way to almost every game these days, no longer the speciality of scummy mobile games preying on the young and ignorant, now preying on the complacent but dumb.
Ziggaton Meh I think there's a difference - I regret paying for shitty cut content and what are you talking about is this case, packs random gambling. Both are bad.
I mean to say Destiny and Diablo like games are all about that gambling like design. Beating bosses and rolling dice to get better weapons which let you keep rolling dice to get ever better weapons.
Nice video as always Act Man, I've been playing Destiny since the beta days way back in 2014 and I remember when the story of vanilla Destiny ended I remember sitting there somewhat confused and not knowing what to feel.
It was such a shame because this universe is so fascinating but they never explore it in game, they've got the lore, which I've read much of, but again the lore for some reason, never appeared in game.
Also the original Destiny story makes Halo 5's story look like the pinnacle of video game storytelling.
“You say all ends are beginnings but I don’t feel like anything began” I LOST IT😂
What campaign
Caz wym what campaign the fucking campaign in destiny
DEGOBEATS he was making a joke dipshit
The only thing Destiny has going on for its a lot of eye candy and the lore (the raids are cool too, but after a while they become stale). Overall, its boring. The story is a chore, the characters are as flat as iCarly and their is no DLC, you just pay $40 dollars for a "key" to access already ingame content.
Thats what dlc is?
I played this game with my TV audio off so I didn't have to hear the boring characters.
RandomProductions82 it wouldn't be any different if the volume was on blast
If I had three wishes, one of them would be for these game devs and writers you have to watch your review a thousand times in it's entirety. Gaming is my passion and I'm glad I didn't spend money on this.
If you are a single player lover you wouldn’t have liked destiny. But if you liked doing raids, Collecting armory, Destroying in extremely competitive pvp. playing the game with endless stuff to do was great. That being said I put in 1000+ hours into destiny.
If I had three wishes the first would be to stop Activision from tampering with Destiny 1 as I imagine the entire world would have been different if Destiny 1 was what it was originally meant to be before Activision butchered it. Second wish would be for Bungie to still own Halo and the last wish would to never run out of money
@@l2sky3 I normally hate single player games 😂 I love being able to play and fuck shit up with the boys so this game was my shit for a long time too. The raids in destiny one were fucking legendary
@@l2sky3 destiny pvp is unbalanced garbage lol
