The grapple doesn’t really do any damage so I can’t see why it has such a long cooldown, it’s a very silly design. Mistime a jump and start falling off a building, you might think ” I will just grapple my way back!” only for computer to say no as you fall to your death. The grappling hook replaces the grenade function on the Strand super class which means you can activate it, but then have to wait for the cooldown period before you can use it again. However, if you thought you’d be bouncing around like Spider-Man with your new grappling hook then you will be disappointed. Strand is a lot of fun though, and you can now get Strand weapons to compliment to the new super. It’s might sound like a good idea to make things like an 80’s action film but it’s not the 80’s anymore, explosions and grizzled veteran and his surfer protégé just doesn’t really cut it anymore. It’s a nice nod to 80’s action movies such a Rocky, but after all that griping from ol’ feather head and you learn it in a montage? It is such a cop-out. Obviously we’re going to find out more of the course of the next year, but it feels very unsatisfactory.Īnother annoyance is that all through the campaign Osiris is yelling at you to train and learn to use Strand – having lost his Light, he’s now a whining man-child – but then when you do learn, it’s done in a montage cutscene. After eight very similar campaign missions we get to the final battle which is exciting and goes on for a decent length of time and then… well, it just kind of ends – no explanation, nothing. It’s just laying around, because reasons, and you power up with it for a few minutes to take out some enemies before the game does the thing I hate most in video games and completely nerfs your character so all you can do is hobble very slowly to the next section. The campaign missions introduce you to the new Super called Strand. Nobody explains what The Veil is, just that it’s important, and character seem to be talking at you to deliver plot points rather than having conversations. When the last few years of Destiny 2’s writing have been so good, the new missions that take inspiration from 80’s action movies feel like a step back. It’s here that we meet two new characters, Cloud Striders Rohan and Nimbus – Destiny’s first non-binary character – and then race after the latest MacGuffin, which is called The Veil.
