![]() Occasionally, you’ll be able to invade your opponent’s area and be a right pain in the arse. If you kill yours first, you’ll win that round of Gambit – and it’s best of three. If you bank enough motes and you’ll summon a boss called a primeval. If you bank motes in multiples of 5, 10 or 15, you’ll drop a ‘blocker’ on the opponent’s bank – preventing them from banking motes until they kill it. When you kill an enemy, it drops a mote, which can be banked in a central machine. It pits two teams of four against waves of Hive, Fallen, Cabal, Vex and Scorn in. Gambit, the new game mode run by the mysterious Drifter, is a PvEvP mode. And yes, you do get to chase one of the Barons around in a Drake Tank! Another has created its own throne world. They’re all yellow bar bosses and each of them presents a unique and memorable challenge for you to conquer.įor instance, one baron creates copies of itself, in its boss fight, to confuse you. Perhaps the stars of the show though are the Barons – the eight baddies responsible for killing Cayde-6 in the opening video. The Wraith spins flaming torches (which are its weak point) and the abomination, which is ogre-like, fires long-range lightning bolts at you. They’re a bit of a messed up version of the Fallen, but effectively, behave differently to enemies you’ve faced in the game.Įnemy highlights include the Lurker, carries around a spartan shield to block you from hitting its weak point. This Delightful Fellow Is Called The FanaticĪs well as hunting the bastards that killed Cayde-6, Destiny 2: Forsaken introduces you to some brand-new enemies called The Scorn. Prince Uldren, the awoken general who went missing after the battle with Oryx in The Taken King, resurfaces, instigates a riot in the Prison of Elders and kills Cayde-6.Īfter deliberation with ghost and the remaining members of The Vanguard, you the Guardian, set out on a quest for revenge. Having spent roughly 40 hours with Destiny 2: Forsaken since launch, I can categorically state while the story is brief, it is hands down, the most mature story Bungie have created to date.ĭestiny 2: Forsaken’s story is simple. This is why I was delighted to hear from the developers at Bungie, that they had killed off Cayde-6 and made the tone of the game much darker. Cayde-6, voiced by the ever-popular Nathan Fillion epitomised the narratives shortcomings – effectively their strength had become their biggest weakness. While muting your guardian from The Taken King onwards was an odd decision, Bungie have built a supporting cast of characters you really care about, with the Vanguard being obvious standouts.īut I couldn’t help but feel Destiny has become a franchise that leaned on comic relief a little too much. After a somewhat abstract story in the vanilla version of Destiny, Bungie have done well to deliver engaging stories in their subsequent expansions. ![]()
