Destiny 2 vs Star Citizen
Destiny 2
Destiny 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the impressive action shooter series that takes you on an epic journey across the solar system, Destiny. The Red Legion, under the leadership of Ghaul, has finally destroyed humanity's last safe city, scattering the remnants of the human race in the wind as they hope to find refuge elsewhere. However, the will of the people has not been broken just yet. You will need to reunite whatever Guardians you can find and pit everything in for a last-ditch effort to take down Ghaul and possibly resecure a home for humans to once again live in.Similar to the original game, Destiny places a lot of emphasis on multiplayer cooperative and competitive gameplay, allowing players to get together and carry out challenging Raids or fight against each other in a 4-vs-4 setting with five different PvP modes to choose from. There are also new adventure missions that will let you discover Lost Sectors as well as public events that you can dive into with other Guardians via the game's new Guided Games (player/group-finding) system. The customization aspect is as in-depth as ever, providing you with a whole new array of weapons, armor and accessories to equip as well.
I'd say the most noticeable difference between Destiny 2 and the original, aside from the new game modes, is the focus on providing players with a rich and cinematic story campaign that will leave players hungering for more. Honestly, if you own a console and is a fan of action-shooters, you'll want to get this game as well as the first. It is as great as they come.
Star Citizen
Star Citizen is an incredibly ambitious and yet highly anticipated (and not to mention, hyped-up especially players who simply adore the genre) project to create the world's very first open world, sandbox game that's set not only in space but also on the many different planets and other locations that you happen to land on/dock to. The game will be pretty massive and it is developed on an as grand a scale as an indie company possibly can. The end product - the game's currently in early access - might end up looking like a Star Wars/Star Trek-like world that's equally in-depth and likely as diverse. Of course, the science-fiction/futuristic feel simply adds to the enormity of the game.However, being the type of game that even triple-A companies have never yet attempted before, the developers have drawn some flak in regard to the chances of actually finishing the game development process and giving their players - the people who had bought and funded the game - a complete game to play. Many critics think that these players will get burned in the end, but for someone who has grown up somewhat obsessed with almost every "space frontier"-type series ever made, I do hope that Star Citizen will be able to reach its true potential even if that means the downloads will take a painfully long time to complete.
