It’s no secret that Destiny 2’s year of existence hasn’t been a joyride. From a disappointing launch that lacked vital features present in Destiny by the end of its lifecycle to several controversies, both Bungie and fans have been put through the ringer. Destiny 2 needs a reset and Bungie hopes to recapture the magic with Destiny 2: Forsaken, a true expansion built to give players exactly what they want. With a new campaign, weapons, locations and quality of life improvements, does Forsaken successfully press the reset button?
In the end, this Solstice of Heroes seems like a net positive for Destiny 2 players . The universal ornaments can be used indefinitely and players are welcome to upgrade their armor as much as they choose. It’s clear that some of the tasks necessary to upgrade the armor are far harder than others. That balance has always been very challenging to strike. But expecting some deep, intricate event to wrap up the year that is to include all players, even those without the expansions, is a simply a miss. The event is supposed to be pretty simple, fun, and with bright, shiny rewards that **Destiny 2 ** players can show off far into the future. Beyond Light draws near. Let’s hope Guardians are re

In addition to these large requirements, Guardians were upset that their hard-earned rewards were rendered obsolete within weeks due to radical changes in the Destiny 2 armor system . This year, the number one concern of players seems to have been addressed, but the monkey’s paw is clinched harder than ever for players looking to acquire it
Halo Infinite can learn much from this shift in content delivery. Having a meaningful progression of events from one season to the next immerses players much more deeply in the world in which they play. It’s a way to reward players for participating in the game throughout the year. One misstep that Bungie has experienced is that of content removal. Unfortunately, many of the headline activities of these new Destiny 2 seasons have had the bulk of their content removed at the start of the following season. Bungie attributes this to technical restraints which are understandable, but it made the game a bit punishing for players looking to take a br

Every year, the event coordinator of Destiny 2 Walkthrough 2 ’s Tower, Eva Levante, returns with a smile on her face and a task at hand. The Solstice and its rewards are generally tied to two main factors: the Magnificent Armor, and the European Aerial Zone (E
Though short at 5-6 hours, the campaign provides enough thrills and excitement thanks to the great barons. Each of the eight barons offers a unique boss fight that keeps players on their toes. The Rider forces you to fight from aboard a Pike, the Trickster rigs ammo to explode and the Rifleman summons decoys to trip you up. Not all were created equal, like the Machinist whose single identifiable trait is firing a few missiles. Then, there are some like the Fanatic who make up for lack of personality by throwing hordes of enemies at you. Still, the boss design is a huge step up from previous Destiny experiences.
It's lucky that the rest of Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is quite good, though familiar. The Moon, a vanilla Destiny location, never got its fair shake back in 2014. Unlike the other areas in the game, it was easy to finish off the Moon sections and then never come back. In Shadowkeep, Bungie has made it a location players will want to keep visiting. Though the design is familiar, the studio has done quite a bit to make it more visually appealing. Giant chasms have torn the landscape asunder, new caves have opened up never-before-seen locations and an enormous Hive citadel looms large over the horizon. Adding to the spookiness of the locale are Nightmares of fallen Guardians, whose silhouettes replace the standard Patrol Beacons. It's clear a lot of compassion went into bringing back the Moon and transforming it into a place players want to visit.

Making Halo Infinite a platform for future content instead of just the "next Halo game" is a major leap into the future for the franchise. It’s promising that players who buy into Halo Infinite on Xbox One can look forward not only just to instant access to the next-gen version of the game through Smart Delivery , but potentially years of continuous content that builds on itself in meaningful ways. Not every move that 343 makes with their platform is going to be a winner, but it’s exciting to think about how the Halo universe will evolve throughout the life of **Halo Infinite
