Deeper Customization
Destiny is this odd mix of RPG and first-person shooter. It’s definitely much more of a shooter than anything else, but it had more than a healthy dose of RPG elements in the form of skill trees and customization. That customization was never very deep, though, leaving most players looking exactly like a lot of other players. It’s hard to create a unique legend with such limited options.
Of course, that was Bungie’s first RPG outing, and the team has learned quite a bit leading up to Destiny 2, which is due out this fall. This is a chance to really embrace the RPG elements that were present in the first game but never really came into their own. This doesn’t have to be all about a character’s physical appearance either.
Clothing is one of the parts of Destiny that fans really like thanks to so many different pieces of armor and class items. Giving more control on how they look — such as more ornaments and the ability to color individual pieces — would go a long way. More armor slots would be welcome too. Having attachments for weapons would fall in line with gun customization in other games, too, which works really well in titles like Battlefield, The Division, and Ghost Recon.
Having more options that alter your appearance, and abilities, would really help Destiny 2 feel like more than just another shooter.
