That's because those franchises were all 9/10 series from the start. Destiny started out as a 7/10 game. More of the same is only a bad thing if "the same" wasn't that great to begin with. 

They're not saying what "the same" is though. Because the worlds are different, skill trees are different, sub classes are different, factions are different, side quests are different, loot is different, story is different, travel is different, pvp is different. free roam activites are different. Almost everything that sucked arse about the first one has been recajiggered into something better.

If by "same" they mean, it's on always online multiplayer shooter then sure. But of course it's core game will remain the same it's a sequel, and every sequel is like that.

Well I can't really comment on that until more final reviews come in. If everything truly has been improved then the final meta should reflect that. 



Around the Network

Well it looks like Bungie did it. They took their early gen stinker and made a good sequel for it. I'm pretty impressed. Having read ten or so reviews, everybody agrees that everything has been improved upon. The only downside is that there is a slight pay to win element. Instead of waiting to level up after level 20 to get your weapon mods, you can just pay cold hard cash. But that's just Activision being greedy. Bungie has clearly returned to form from it's Halo days.
