Destiny 2 is going to be poorly received because fans have the unrealistic expectation that they will actually be able to transfer their Destiny 1 progress over to the sequel, and there is just no way that is going to happen.

Wait why wouldn't that happen? I'd think that would be like, the most important feature for anyone that already owns and put a bunch of time into the first game.

I have only just started Destiny, so by the time I get the sequel the third will probably come out!

There's probably less people they would tick off with a reset than people who wouldn't buy it because you needed to play 200 hours of Destiny 1 to play 2.

I was looking at that cancelled brothers in arms game and man, I knew that stuff from it was repurposed for battleborn but looking at this character art makes it kinda obvious haha

The third option is to give people a strong enough character to start Destiny 2 if they don't import characters from Destiny, sort of like the "get right to the level to start the expansion" boost you get with recent WoW expansions. That way Destiny 1 players can carry over their progress while new Destiny 2 players can jump right in.

That said, I don't think they set up their system for much more character growth, so even if things do carry over, I think they need to change things. The subclasses, especially, feel like they'd just get bloated if they tried to add more abilities to each one, so they're probably going to need to do an overhaul of the class and progression systems.

Sometimes I think about how people unironically believed Battleborn would be better then Overwatch and I laugh.

The raids were basically your usual World of Warcraft-ish dance recital stuff but translated to a shooter. I did a couple back in the day but I didn't much care for it. Still I guess you should try one, you might like it better, I just can't be bothered to perfect the choreography needed for them.

Also that could have changed because I didn't even play the first expansion lol

On this topic, when are chalice dungeons intended to be done? Are they near end-game content? I just started NG+ but wondering if I go in now if I'll get destroyed, versus going in around the time I'd be ready to go NG++, if that makes any sense?

Later!
They scale from early game difficulty into post-game difficulty by the end. I also don't think they scale with NG+ so you are gonna destroy the first like 75% of them at your level.

They don't scale to NG+ so you will destroy the first 90% of them. They're designed to be played parallel to the progression

Okay, cool, thanks. I think I only have access to one at the moment anyway. I skipped so much on my first playthrough without realizing.

It would perhaps be more accurate to say I don't like the single player content in most fighting games because that doesn't sound terribly interesting either.

Like the last time I cared about a fighting game was MK9's story mode, and before that like.. Soul Calibur III (which instantly got on my poo poo list when it corrupted my save file after hours of playtime).

Injustice had a lot of great single player content and Injustice 2 will probably have even more
