Along with images of the Tower Portal, the gallery shows off pictures of The Tower’s underneath hidden passages and high away scaffoldings. Some additional work depicts the exotic weaponry that was added thanks to the Leviathan’s Breath pursuit. There is also a Guardian statue in The Tower that during the Solstice of Heroes event was updated; the gallery shows off this work.
While the main images are certainly of the Tower, the gallery shows off many pictures depicting areas that Guardians will be familiar with. Most of the photographs can be depicted as scenic views orDestiny 2’s familiar mazes and corridors.
Bungie has often been considered as one of the benchmark developers in gaming when it comes to art design. Its thumb-print in gaming, from games likeMarathonon the Mac to theHaloseries and of courseDestiny,has always had a distinct artistic look and feel.Destiny 2is certainly no different. On top of its games being aesthetically pleasing, Bungie has almost always had a flair for the theatrics. Its games are filled with mysteries, secrets, and surprises.
However, as strong as a Bungie has been as a developer on all fronts, it seems to struggle tomaintain its player base forDestiny 2from time to time. Managing an audience with a games of service game over a multi-year period is not easy. In some ways, one may wonder if releasing a true sequel would be the best bet, as opposed to relying on small and large updates to rejuvenate the fans. WhileDestiny 3probably won’t be a surprise drop in 2020, it could certainly be something that comes with the new generations of consoles sometime down the road. And that could be something that brings back the hardcore fan base.
It may be hard to believe, but Bungie has been working on games now for 30 years, sinceGnop!in 1990. Bungie is a seasoned game developer that has now proven to have the ability to create unique story, multiplayer, and online experiences all with a beautiful art-style. 2020 willmost likely be a very interesting yearforDestiny 2, and the coming years could have a lot of great things in store for Bungie, and in turn, for gamers alike.
