Destiny 2 critiques round-up – all of the scores

Destiny 2 has been out within the wild for lengthy sufficient now that we’ve got many scored critiques.

What initially began as Destiny 2 impressions, rapidly shaped into full-blown critiques. We’re engaged on our personal assessment (you may learn our impressions within the meantime).

It took this lengthy as a result of Destiny 2 is large sport. You’ve most likely seen the numerous layers of this via our Destiny 2 guide. Then there’s the matter of the Leviathan raid, which some reviewers wish to play earlier than issuing remaining scores.

If you’re simply stepping into the sport your self or have come up towards a plateau after reaching Power degree 265, you should definitely test our levelling up guide for the most effective and best manner of reaching excessive Power. Some of it will require a little bit of a grind of public events, particularly the Heroic tiers.

Destiny 2 critiques round-up – all of the scores

Anyway, listed below are all of the scores thus far –

And right here’s the websites that haven’t gotten round to including a quantity a the top of their impressions… but.

  • Gamespot: no rating – “Of course, all of this still feels like Destiny. The new social space, the Farm, is functionally the same as the Tower in the original. Finding loot and switching out your old gear still takes up a significant portion of your time. Enemies have been tweaked, but they’re not wildly different, either. That’s not necessarily bad, but it also makes me wonder if I’ll see Destiny 2 as a sequel, rather than a half-step forward, the longer I play and the more I grind and repeat.”
  • Polygon: no rating – “At the very least, what I’ve played of Destiny 2 is an incredibly promising start. In plain English, it feels like Destiny without all the bull****.”
  • USgamer: no rating – “Destiny 2 doesn’t necessarily feel like full sequel to Destiny, but it doesn’t need to. So far, what’s here is fun and engaging.”
  • IGN: no rating – “My initial impressions leave me with more questions than answers. Is the story going to stay engaging through the end? Are the great drops going to get stingier at higher levels? Am I going to get bored exploring the new destinations? We’ll have to answer those hanging questions later, but based on what I’ve experience so far, Destiny 2 hasn’t disappointed my high expectations as a fan of the original.”
  • Destructoid: no rating – “Destiny 2 doesn’t necessarily feel like a full sequel as much as an improved expansion, but that’s not a bad thing if you just wanted more Destiny. So far I’m enjoying myself despite its shallowness at times, just keep in mind that it remains to be seen just how grindy the endame is. That’s something I’ll be taking a look at closely as I prepare for my full review, but only after I’ve maxed out (level 20) my Warlock!”
  • Ars Technica: Approved – “Destiny 2 knows exactly what it is and isn’t. D2 is bigger and better than its predecessor, and it keeps me coming back with mixed expectations of better loot—and clearer expectations of a good shooting time with friends. The former is fine, but the latter is what makes me recommend Destiny 2 right now for anybody eager for the next great chat-and-shoot gaming franchise.”
  • Rolling Stone: no rating – “I haven’t had a chance to finish the campaign yet. To my delight, the story’s at least as long as the classic Halo games I fell in love with so many years ago, and there’s a whole world – four of them, in fact – to investigate with my fellow Guardians. In the depths of Nessus, Ghost has even heard tell of a planet-eating worldship and a pissed-off emperor named Calus, who might have an axe to grind with Ghaul. Sounds like we’re in for a long wild ride.”

Destiny 2 is out now on PS4 and Xbox One. The PC model releases October 24.
