Destiny 2 vs Half Life 2: Episode Two
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.
Half Life 2: Episode Two
Half Life 2: Episode Two continues the storyline of Half Life 2: Episode One (obviously). Playing once again as Dr Gordon Freeman, you set off from City 17 with Alyx Vance in hopes of delivering crucial information to that's left of your fellow resistance scientists. However, to do so, you'll need to cross the dangerous White Forest while having Combine forces hot on your tail.Featuring new weapons, vehicles, and monstrous creatures, Half Life 2: Episode 2 is definitely able to satisfy the masses of fans who are hooked on one of the world's most popular classic game franchise. However, the game apparently ends with a cliffhanger and that Valve, much to the dismay of their fans, has no intentions of finishing the trilogy. This has sparked a rather huge outroar especially when it was leaked that the storyline for Episode 3 has already been written.
Regardless, this game is still a worthwhile purchase despite its years and the incomplete storyline.
