Rise of Iron era destiny 1 is probably one of the best multiplayer experiences in any video game. They had it so, so right. Wrath of the Machine was just so amazing.
Yeah this is a god tier game. Absolutely untouchable gun play, incredibly well-designed raids, and legitimately like 12 great and distinct activities to do at any time (when the game was peaking in years 2-3). The story was w/e but i was never very concerned about it anyways.
My dislike for Destiny not only comes from how I didn’t enjoy the game when I first played it in 2014, but how it also spawned the “live service” genre and told other studios to copy this bad game to make boat loads of cash off of their bad games. Ew
Insanely mixed feelings for this game and franchise that I've invested thousands of hours into. I have a lot of thoughts about this game but looking back, I can't overstate how impeccable the tone and atmosphere of the vanilla game was. I so badly wish that the original vision for Destiny, its world, and its story was fully realized.
the art design, music, lore, and worldbuilding in d1 is just incredible. I d2 would've kept the more grungy space-bandit feel. such a missed opportunity.
