Destiny 2 Reviews: 11 Critical Reactions You Need To Know

9. It's Surprisingly Rich In Content

"When you touch down, you have many more options for what to do, and it's surprising how far that goes toward breaking up the repetition... Both Adventures and Lost Sectors take you to far-flung areas of the map and often include a healthy bit of backstory. Because of that, it feels like you're doing something of substance, rather than a series of menial tasks." - Gamespot
"With so much going on it’s hard not to get sucked into doing another public event, as you’ll often stumble upon one that’s just beginning even as you’re in the middle of a different task...I actually found myself having to resist distraction and skip some of those exciting opportunities in order to complete the initial Adventure mode side-quest I embarked upon. It’s a good problem to have, in that I never felt bored." - IGN
"Consider...the Public Events, the Lost Sectors complete with mini bosses, the scannables, the return of Patrols, the addition of challenges, and the general chaos of each planet, and these open worlds feel limitless and rich." - Gamesradar

After the first Destiny under-delivered so horrendously on its launch content, players are sensible to be a little skeptical of Destiny 2's ability or inclination to serve up a greater abundance of diverse content.

Thankfully, the game features an almost bewildering amount of things to do, and while it may not all be to your tastes, the speed with which you can fleet from one activity to the next makes it hard to get bored.

Simply, if you're looking for a game to eat up hundreds of hours of your life, this could be it. Considering how much time many got out of the fairly bare original game, it's safe to say that the content-stacked D2 is going to be an even bigger time sink.
