Which Should You Buy?
In all honesty, I would easily recommend that you bring both Wolfenstein 2 and Destiny 2 into your life at some point. Both titles have plenty to praise with shortcomings that hardly take away from the overall product. This is a case where choosing which game to buy has nothing to do with picking which game is “better.” Instead it’s a matter of what you are really looking for in your next shooter.
If you are the player who wants to dedicate hours and hours into a shooter and constantly receive rewards for your progress, Destiny 2 is a clear winner. While its story and world building are also impressive, they are accompanied by game modes and multiplayer features that give Destiny 2 a much longer lifespan than a game that has a more linear focus. Destiny 2 is full of customization options and opportunities for you to create a Guardian that stands out in The Farm or The Tower. With gunplay that also feels very technical and delightfully smooth, it will appeal to a wide range of fans of this particular genre.
But if you aren’t in the mood for a long term commitment and couldn’t care less about multiplayer features, you may want to spend your money on Wolfenstein 2 this time around. The narrative will introduce you to a dynamic cast of characters that each bring their own complexities to the gaming experience. While some are sources of comedy, others shine through their moral ambiguity and others serve as necessary guides to just move the story forward. Wolfenstein 2 provides tons of content for your initial playthrough but once you reach the end of the game there won’t be much reason to keep the game in your library unless you just want to challenge yourself with higher difficulties.
