Since the release last week, all I've been playing is Destiny 2 (D2). I've been preparing my character for the raid that's dropping tomorrow and after seeing the power level requirements, I'm excited that I can participate the moment it's gonna drop. Sadly I don't have any time until the weekend..
After playing this game for a week, it really feels like the previous game was a three year long open beta. D2 is packed with a lot of content, A LOT! At first 5 strikes felt really thin (6 strikes on PS4, and some other exclusives only available on Sony's platform), because that was really the only way in Destiny 1 (D1) to get some better gear, besides the weekly raids and nightfalls..
First off the Story in this game is pretty fun. The cut scenes are beautiful, the music is really good, the voice overs can be a little corny at times but overal they are great. The graphics are just phenomenal for how big this game is, there are 4 planets at the moment and they all looks so different from each other. With the European Dead Zone being the biggest followed by Nessus, the other two (Titan and Io) are much smaller but have some really nice effects. The DLC content have been leaked already and we are getting a fifth planet Mercury, I hope this one is pretty big also.
In D2 you can get gear from literally everywhere.. From strikes, public events, a lot of different vendors with tokens, crucible, flashpoints and off course the weekly raids and nightfalls.. In D1 crucible was horrible to me and didn't felt right, this time around they made it 4v4 and the mechanics are just working better now. We have to wait and see though, because Bungie is good at nerfing all the good things and make it less fun..
As I'm writing this I'm Power level 282 (the Destiny fans will know how hard grinding this is hehe..), the raid that is dropping tomorrow will be around 260 - 280. So I'm ready for this, I'll let you know how I've experienced it!
Before I go, let me show you the first exotic emote I got in this game, eating some ramen noodle!
