Longevity, popularity, liver. The work of "Destiny 2" is absolutely inseparable from these three words. An FPS with a plot-driven nature, or an MMORPG in the skin of an FPS, is absolutely amazing to reach its fifth year. After a slightly disappointing Year 4, Year 5 with the "Phantom of the Evil Ji" may be the top big DLC in the entire series, including the first work. (Since there will be a disciple oath Raid online on March 6, this experience report mainly focuses on the campaign and talent system parts, and thanks to the immortals who accompanied me through the battle plot at the first time, your help enriched the content of this report)
An epic campaign experience that never drags the mud and water
Today, when PvP mode is gradually becoming a major part of an FPS, you still can't ignore the huge proportion of excellent campaign modes. A big part of the reason why "The Phantom of the Evil Ji" is considered one of the best expansions in the series is that the campaign part gives players the ultimate experience. Respecting the theme of the game with PvE as the core, this is also the most important point for the author since the "black history" of "forcing players to use weapons that may not be good at PvP" represented by year 3. This excellent experience can be mainly attributed to two points, one is the compelling and leeway script setting, and the other is to guide the player to promote the mission design of the script. Let's start with two. In many previous versions of the main storyline, "get xx bounty" or "kill xx specific enemies" became necessary to advance the main storyline, while in "Evil Ghost", such tasks were classified as side quests that you can stay at any time to complete. And the main plot route in front of you is a "hard dish" after another, just imagine a soul game with no various "corner kill" creeps, only bosses, all you have to do is to walk from one boss to the next boss until you come to the final mission.
(Absolutely oppressive boss design)
(A bit of a sweet blue tip)
The "Phantom of evil Ji" gives people this feeling, without delay, without reservation, the most grand part is directly presented to your eyes. Even if you don't play the Legendary Campaign (which of course should be impossible for many liver guys), you'll definitely be partially fascinated by this campaign. The content of the campaign is not simply stacked difficulty, but has both depth. Some very superficial mission modes, such as "hold your stronghold under attack from several waves of enemies," may exist, but not too many. Instead, there are puzzles that require you to think about, and sometimes even make you wonder if you're not playing FPS, but the "Professor Layton Series."
(Let's find a different "I have another language")
(Difficult tasks are not uncommon)
And when we talk about the plot and compare it with the story that appeared in the 8-year history of the Destiny series, it is not inferior. It's a little bit more difficult to tell the story without spoilers. Savatuen, the absolute central character of the plot of this campaign, completed an impressive performance. Bungie has done a lot of preparation for this character in the past few seasons, but because of the way it is arranged, such as burying the relevant information deeply, Savathurn is a mysterious existence for some players. In the story of "The Phantom of the Evil Ji", Savatuen appeared very bluntly for the first time, leaving players with a shocking and endless ending. In terms of narrative technique, the stick chicken also did everything they could. Twists and turns not only keep the player on top of the story, but also realizes at the end that "maybe there will be something bigger than ever." The central mystery of the whole story lies in how Savathune came to light and through the narrative to create a complex, still enigmatic, scheming, and even tragic Savathun. And the performance of some old characters such as Ikora also takes the plot experience of the entire campaign to a higher level.
(Silence is better than sound here)
In short, the excellent plot and narrative style, with a compact demeanor, and the mission design that never drags the mud and water, has created an excellent campaign mode. This level of excellence is close to the Scarlet War, leaving the empty main line of Year 4 far behind, making people have the urge to play repeatedly.
Void 3.0, carrying the moon to kill the enemy invisibly
Void 3.0 and the new weapon Moon do have an impact on the game's talent system and PvP environment. The new Void 3.0 gives three classes different boosts, especially Hunter. The Void Hunter can achieve infinite stealth; the Void Warlock's Void Skill Kill will be swallowed directly, and the grenade will even be weakened; and the Void Titan will change the shoulder bump to pieces. Overall, the Void Titan is undoubtedly the one with the weaker experience and less amazing experience of the three positions. Although titans can return blood in melee when they have a shield, and can mark opponents with the Void Mark during normal melee combat, which in turn explodes after killing (this is a fragment effect). The blood return efficiency is high and will have a good effect with Jin Yanyue, but compared with the other two, it seems to be a bit of a witch.
(The Titans' set of schemes is dwarfed by the other two.)
The Void Warlock carries the Devouring Vortex Meteor, a vortex thunder that can deal a wide range of damage, as well as a monster sucker and tyrannical shadow suppression effect. The Void Warlock is paired with the Bull's Head, and the Glass Peak turns into a powerful choice, ending the kill for 9 seconds of stealth and 6 seconds of stealth in melee combat, allowing the Warlock to obtain the means to effectively avoid damage. The Hunter, on the other hand, highlights a "stealth" and the best fit with the version of the weapon Moon. To discuss year 5, it is absolutely impossible to avoid the void, let alone the moon. Yan Yue, a weapon with a translated name that pokes directly at Chinese players, has a low damage problem in PvE, which may be slightly chicken (if you can't use it). When dealing with such a small enemy as the Void Shield, it was necessary to break the shield with bullets and then cut the enemy three times in a row, which was indeed far from the Green Dragon Crescent Moon Knife in Chinese's heart. Coupled with the battle situation of the campaign mode's final battle, the low damage of Yan Yue will only become more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. However, as the main weapon of the opening season of the fifth year, Yan Yue is not useless, on the contrary, it is actually an extremely useful weapon. First, YanYue is a weapon with a large gain range as the level increases; second, Yanyue performs well in functionality, the Titan's Golden Moon performs more strongly, and the Initial Stage of Yanyue is unyielding, which is helpful for the PvE monster experience; third, Yanyue will become an interesting existence in the PvP environment, in PvP mode, Yanyue can vibrate the knife, which will become a big killing move; most importantly, the Yanyue that matches the void is almost close to the version of the answer.
(Suffocating PvP intensity at the beginning of the season)
The Void Hunter brings a crescent moon and can achieve infinite stealth. Yan Yue's shield was also incomparably strong, almost completely injury-free. The magic skill is "unstoppable", turning the defensive action into a projectile Buff, not only to defend the attack, but also not to aim. In addition, Yan Yue is a knife, but not exactly a knife. Because the Green Dragon Crescent Moon Knife is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, when seeing a Moon Blade, players can't help but use it as a large machete. In fact, the moon is a framework, in which the weapons can be knife or gun. It can be said that Yan Yueyi embodies the aesthetics of translation, but at the same time, the accuracy of translation is not achieved, that is, "Xindaya" realizes "Daya", but does not realize "faith". If translated as a rugged "long-handled weapon", it may be easier to understand. Each character's Moon is different, and there are three categories in total, which is a proof of the breadth of the Moon. The difference in functionality of the Golden Purple Moon is also a highlight of the weapon. The Golden Moon has no shield, but there will be a special move bonus that gives the Titan Bubble and the Warlock can master the healing turret, which is also the fun of the game. However, if you want to find a best partner for Yan Yue, it is undoubtedly the Void Hunter. As mentioned earlier, the Void Hunter + Moon = Infinite Stealth is already an extremely strong presence in this version, and if you match the mod and master the use of the shield, the almost only drawback of "low damage" can be overcome. This is also why almost half of the players in the PvP environment are now using the moon, because with a good collocation, the moon will be very imba in the PvP.
(This big long knife can also suppress light energy, and I don't tell him about the average person!) ）
(Bottom right: This knife is not for cutting, it is for poking!) ）
Another popular weapon is the Dry Bone Scale. The author's encounter with dry bones in PvP mode is basically a detour, because this weapon comes with its own lock, as well as precision damage, which is very distinct at present and is destined to be weakened in future updates.
(Dead bones in his hand, Guan Yunchang shook his head when he saw it)
A wonderful year 5 has just begun
If the year 4 of "Destiny 2" is a long, empty, and irritating homework; then the beginning of year 5 is undoubtedly a wonderful film and television blockbuster. With excellent campaign mode and an excellent experience of Void 3.0 and Moon, coupled with excellent details, this year is destined to be a lively and extraordinary year.
(There is no shortage of eye-catching scenery under the overall eerie style)
("The ball gets stuck in the building", "locked in jail", such a funny scene will never be absent)
In order to make the good start continue, I believe that some changes will inevitably be made next. The author personally believes that under the framework of more three series and changing skills, how to make Yan Yue and Void Hunter appear too strong under the premise of retaining their characteristics will be an important issue. And the raid, which will debut on March 6, will also set off another wave.
In addition, in the future plot development. Because the ending of the "Evil Ji Phantom" did not "put the words to death", although it was only a clue, there was still a possibility of reversal. Whether the narrative that turns a thousand times and attracts people's attention can be carried forward is also the focus of attention.
"The Phantom of the Evil Ji", a rare large-scale expansion, we expect it to be the beginning of the next wave of climax.
