@blister: I dunno, I've always thought Destiny had really good art/design. I mean, there's a lot of STUFF in Destiny, so it's not all gonna be great, but in general I quite like the aesthetic.
And those Bungie skyboxes always deliver.
Yeah, I still think Destiny is the best looking game I've ever played, in terms of art direction and a style that speaks to me. Everywhere you go in the first game looks like it came straight out of a Chris Foss book cover. Or as I said at the time:
One of my favourite things about Destiny's environments is the way that shit always looks like the coolest painterly concept art.
No Man's Sky captured a lot of that as well, but it felt a bit more sterile and not really a "real" world like Destiny can feel (which stands to reason, considering how their respective environments are created). Destiny has had wonderfully meticulous design hands applied to it, with the imperfections of every nook and cranny considered, and I really appreciate that.
