Destiny could really have a pet or a useful character.

OR the diablo gold goblin. That would be good too.

I am concerned about all the things they are removing from Destiny 2, because they have not announced yet what they are adding. I don't want to play a experiment on minimalism.

Would be cool if they had a pet or something that followed you around. Something you could even dress up or apply items to.

I'm sure the PC base will mod that in if Bungie doesn't want to.

Hell with that, give us ship combat and another thing to chase gear/parts for.

Yes that's what I want in my FPS game, a bad aerial combat simulation.

From the guys that released a game thinking the Interceptor and Sparrow driving mechanics were "okay."

The space fight sequence in Halo: Reach was great fun. I wouldn't mind seeing an entire playmode dedicated to something similar.

The "dogfighting" was pretty dumbed down and could only be fun against AI, basically a good deal once or twice but if you had to do it any more it would be a pretty crappy chore.

Wasn't there only like 2 times in Reach where you actually had to fly somewhere?

There was only one time, although it's a fairly long multipart sequence.



e: There are plenty of terrestrial/airborne vehicle sequences but only one controllable spaceship sequence.

I'm not really sure what kind of standard you are holding it against but it was a fun romp that held some promise. I'd rather see this kind of gameplay rather than the dull Sparrow racing.

I like Sparrow racing, but also the Reach ship section; even if it's something as minor as getting the cursor replaced on loading screens or w/e with a cute, pixelated, sprite-tabled, orthographic version of my Octavian v2 that I could play Asteroids with I'd be pig-in-poo poo happy.

Plus, Space segments would give the player a better sense of ground/sky, and contribute more to Level Bigness™

The ghost is less than a character in game, don't show much, except has latern in caves and to open doors. Maybe it would be too distracting to have it flyiing around.

It could be doing something useful, like getting ammo for us, or finding hidden chests or scanning enemies for even more loot or experience or lore or something.

Also, I don't see a problem with having more than one pet. A man can have two dogs.

Everyone knows that guardians in destiny are actually VR gamer avatars from an alternate dimension that believe they're enjoying a leisure activity, but in the destiny universe it's a literal fight for survival.

The traveler and ghosts are just the gamer's portal to their home universe.

Are you insinuating that Bungie cribbed the plot of Destiny from the hit movie Gamer, starring esteemed actor Gerard Butler?

Why not, Halo was basically Aliens.

So I guess the lesson is that Bungie is cribbing plots from shittier movies as time goes on.

Finally got a regen on orb helm, need to level it. Changed out Monte Carlo for red death and the gimmick is more fun.

All the armor and guns look cool though, which is all that matters. The search for a new vigil continues.

There's always the possibility that theres a fat dude called Tuff inside the Traveler, and that the Traveler is just a old terraformation and bioenginerring ark.

There are 3 classes of sparrows, basically- most basic legendaries go 150, special reward sparrows (faction drops etc) go 160, and the two Y1 raid sparrows have a special overdrive mode that you can feather to go much faster at the risk of exploding if you screw up.
