So Destiny 2 has been nominated for a BAFTA...but not for the Best Game, Multiplayer, Evolving Game, Game Design, Game Innovation, Narrative or even Art categories like you might expect for an MMO 1st person shooter and especially for what Bungie promised us with the sequel to Destiny.
The BAFTA nomination is for [b]Audio Achievement.[/b]
Re-read that... [b]Audio Achievement.[/b]
Firstly, congratulations to the Audio department as they've done an amazing job!
Secondly, WTAF Bungie?!
This clearly shows that the industry knows that Destiny 2 is a rundown, boring shell of a game that was supposed to be a sequel that built on the original, yet has fewer features than the original, and important core mechanics like weapon slots, gear grinding, end game...etc... are just so lacklustre that the industry professionals don't think it's up to scratch.
From what we had in Year 3 of D1 to now is just pitiful.
Rant over.

Edited by EARWAK3R: 3/16/2018 6:00:44 PMHey, you do know that bafta (British academy of film and tv awards) means mainly british academy film awards right? There is no best game category or any of that other nonsense you mention in the first few sentences. Its art and audio only when games get chosen for an award. D2 getting a nomination for game audio, at an awards show that is predominately film, is actually pretty good.
