There’s no beating around the bush that Destiny 2 was a disaster. Bungie has owned up to their mistakes and the result is Destiny 2: Forsaken. While it’s not cool that it’s taken $140 to get here (and more if you splurge on microtransactions), Destiny 2: Forsaken presents Destiny 2 with its much-needed reset. The campaign is compelling enough thanks to its excellent boss design, though Uldren lacks the history to be a strong antagonist. The new locales are a joy to explore and provide a nice change in pace compared to the vanilla worlds. Gambit is an exciting new mode, but, like the Blind Well, is heavily dependent on what kind of teammates you have. Destiny 2 needed something to save it and Forsaken bought it a new lease on life.
The Solstice title for the summer event is Flamekeeper and comes packaged similarly to the last two entries, with an event card, special tasks to do, and engaging with the event’s activity, Bonfire B
Collect Light and Dark Motes to charge your weapon. Each Knight Echo will drop three motes. Five motes of the same type will charge them, and they depend on where you’re standing when you kill the Echo. These motes will only last for 30 seconds after collection until there is a full charge. Use the charge on the matching pillars by pressing the triggers on top of them. When you’re done, climb up into a small ar
It has been nearly a year since Bungie shifted towards their evolving world, and things haven’t been perfect. However, there are absolutely a few things that 343 Industries should pay attention to when thinking about how they make Halo Infinite a platform instead of an iterat
While this approach to franchise expansion is a novel move for Halo and its developers at 343 Industries, it is not new for the industry. In fact, Bungie, the original creators of Halo, have moved towards this platform expansion model for Destiny 2 . In June, Bungie announced that Destiny 2 Walkthrough 2 , already finishing up its third year since launch, still had at least three more years of new expansions on the
While players don’t yet have a clear picture of how deep Halo Infinite is going to go down the Destiny road, it’s obvious that they will need to introduce activities that keep players engaged outside of just PvP and re-runs of the story missions. 343 Industries should absolutely be looking to satisfy their PvE-focused audience with challenging, repeatable, and rewarding endgame activities that respect the player’s time and provide a meaningful loop for players to engage
On top of the Supremacy triumphs, there are other event-related activities, such as the Vanguard strike and Nightfall completion that are required to gild the title. The Nightfall one will be tough for any players who typically enjoy the game solo, even with the new in-game LFG opt
Uldren Sov serves as a passable antagonist but ultimately suffers from a lack of interaction with your Guardian. Outside of a handful of cutscenes from Destiny and a brief interaction at the start of Forsaken, Uldren hasn’t had much impact on your story. Much of the animus you’ll hold for him lies solely on whether you like Cayde-6. It doesn’t help that a random final boss appears out of nowhere to rob Uldren of his spotlight.
Now that you’re back in the wasteland of Destiny 2 , follow the Kell Echo to your next location. It will be shooting at you, so take care not to get too close. Approaching him will also cause him to teleport, so keep a distance. Kell Echo is the final boss, but it’s not time to face him yet. On the way, you may run into the Emissary. Come close to it to learn lore, and every member of the team will receive something different. After following the Kell Echo, You will find another crack to go through, and you will arrive at the Singular
During the latest **Halo Infinite ** reveal stream leading the Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase , a new concept was brought forth to the Halo franchise. It was made clear that Halo Infinite , unlike its predecessors, would not simply be another chapter in the story, but a platform on which all content for the foreseeable future would be bu
If there’s one problem with the Dreaming City, it’s the Blind Well. Working like the Court of Oryx and Archon Forge, players make sacrifices to draw out powerful enemies and, hopefully, earn powerful rewards. As in The Taken King, it’s an excellent idea for a mode that’s unfortunately executed poorly. As Fireteams can only hold three players outside of Crucible and Raids, who else you’ll get, if anyone else, is up to chance. It’s possible six other players with high-level gear will show up. It’s also possible for under-leveled players to hop in or even no extra players at all. The problem started with The Taken King and it’s disappointing Bungie hasn’t addressed all these years later.
Once all of the pillars are cleansed, all teammates should meet in the center of the room. You will be transported to a hallway-shaped arena with platforms. Entropy debuffs will start to build, if they reach ten you will die. Getting close to Kell Echo counteracts t
