Review: Destiny 2: Shadowkeep

Not all video game missions are made equally. Some are just naturally harder than others for a multitude of different reasons. Destiny 2 personifies this belief in that some strikes are mind-numbingly easy while others will leave fans pulling their hair


Once the Majestic set has been fully completed, Guardians can again upgrade their armor to the Magnificent versions with the highest stats and ornamentation. This Magnificent set also has one final set of tasks to complete, some of which are extra challenging. It is this final step that applies the fabulous white glow to each pi

What New Light doesn’t provide is mostly story content and endgame activities. To access this, you’ll need to purchase the expansions and Annual/Season Pass content separately. You can nab Forsaken now for $24.99, and Shadowkeep for $34.99.

Destiny campaigns have always been mind-numbing thanks to heavy-handed writing and mission design that overly relies on mundane busywork. The stories nearly always end up being vague, open-ended and unsatisfying. Forsaken changed that by making the story more personal and finding new and engaging ways to push that narrative forward. Shadowkeep, on the other hand, is content with regressing all that hard work. Aside from strong opening and closing missions, Shadowkeep barely delivers any meaningful revelations or character development. You, Eris Morn and the remainder of the Vanguard remain blank slates with surface-level characterizations. With the most emotive member of the cast, Cayde-6, dead, Destiny desperately needs NPCs with some personality. Unfortunately, that isn't found anywhere in Shadowkeep.


Add that with an assortment of enemies that attack from all different directions in multiple different ways and a boss fight like no other in the game makes this a strike that players will not soon forget. Even if in the end they would like


There has been some speculation about the details of Exodus: Evacuation. As it wasn’t available until recently, fans have datamined information to get a general understanding of the quest and what tasks will need to be completed. Now, players have been able to experience the quest first-hand. It focuses on the same four planets. Players will have to complete four quests for each of the leaders on the planets. They won’t visit the planets in the same order they hade before. Players will have to speak to Commander Zavala again to access this qu


Destiny 2 gamers battle Grask in an attempt to liberate Earth from the grasp of the Taken. Virgos may be disappointed by Grask, The Consumed being a relatively middle-of-the-road boss in comparison to the oth

The dreaded Eververse store is back and Bungie really wants you to know about it. Previously, the store was relegated to the Tower and completely skippable. That’s no longer the case as Bungie has slapped the storefront into the Director, a menu players need to frequently bring up.

Over the past two years, Bungie has done good work slowly removing some of the more disturbing aspects from the Eververse store. Gameplay-focused items like armor, sparrows and Ghost shells have been moved out of the store and are, like in Destiny, offered as in-game rewards. At this point in time, the Eververse store purely sells cosmetic items, including weapon ornaments, emotes and finishers.


The Magnificent Armor is where the real work begins. Each player is gifted a Renewed set of armor that has low stats and looks old and dilapidated. Every piece of the set has a subset of tasks associated with it. These might include goals such as Complete Five Strikes, or Get 50 Precision Kills, or other things to that effect. Once players complete all requirements on all five pieces of gear, the armor can be upgraded to the Majestic versions with higher stats and better aesthetics. With this upgrade also comes a new, more challenging set of objectives to complete for each armor piece once again. In 2020, this first upgrade also unlocks the universal ornaments for the set as w

Yes, despite all the worldwide controversy surrounding loot boxes, Destiny 2 still uses them. Called Bright Engrams, these boxes are purchased from the Eververse store. They spill out a random selection of items that players have no control over. There are also Nostalgic Engrams that contain cosmetic items from Year 2. If you really want to spend real-world money on microtransactions, it’s best to directly purchase what you want from Eververse.


Destiny 2 is an online sci-fi multiplayer shooter released by Bungie in 2017. The makers of Halo truly made something special with this video game. The universe players find themselves plunged into in Destiny 2 missions 2 is still expanding, and a considerable amount of gamers continue to play the online shooter three years after its de

The Worm God seems to be the most distressed, angry, and complicated boss in the game. Libras tend to avoid conflict and are generally gentle and diplomatic, but they might be able to relate to Xol's (possible) insecurity due to being the weakest Worm
