"Personally, I am a rather hardcore Destiny player. But in the public at large, despite the pre-release hype, reaction to Bungie's MMOFPSRPG has been mixed at best. The excellent gameplay elements and shooting mechanics are held back by repetitive game design and marred by lackluster story and writing. When you have Peter Dinklage and Nathan Fillion in your voice cast, it doesn't take much creative savvy to realize that any fault in the storytelling does not lie with the actors. However, even with these flaws, Destiny has maintained a respectable momentum, and Bungie seems to be hoping to continue their modest success with expansions to extend the game's lifespan. The first of their expansions, The Dark Below, promises extra story missions, strikes, and raids for a rather audacious asking price."
Here, Twinfinite is writing that Destiny, despite being a T rated franchise, is full of dark and brooding moments that showcase the best of the team's narrative potential. They further write that, while Destiny 2 has not delivered as much as it should have on this front, Forsaken appears to be the big step that it needs to return to its greatest moments.
Destiny has amassed a small collection of Strikes. Check out how they stack up against one another.
I miss the Summoning Pits, bring it back!
Omnigul is still the hardest Strike even with the new ones added.
I never found Omnigul too hard, I welcomed the change of pace from everything that came before it.
As part of the My Games Lounge look back on the first year of Destiny, David game has had a look individually at the expansion packs to the core game.
