It's season 2 of The Walking Dead.

The space seems cool from a functionality point of view, and it certainly fits thematically with where our guardians are in the story of D2 (on the ropes, trying to rebuild, etc).
I do hope, however, that we get other social spaces fairly soon. All of the spaces in D1 had a certain majestic quality that I really enjoy, and I'm not getting that vibe from this new space at all so far. It's practical, but kinda dull (as one might expect from a farm).

Perhaps majestic isn't appropriate anymore. That was the feeling when under the travelers protection, and looking out over this city which we can only imagine what it's like.

Now we are on the run.

Yep. As I said, it fits thematically. Just not a vibe that does anything for me one way or another.

I think the nature of the story and lore is itself going to shift away from 'majestic'. Any other social spaces I feel would lack this quality as well in Des2ny.

On a bad day, I could get a little nauseous going back and forth between vendors.

Meh. I never really liked the view from the Vestian Outpost. Always felt like a bunch of nonsensical jumble of ship and station parts all heavily obscured by a nebula that has only its overwhelming purplenessto recommend it. It’s certainly not interesting. Similarly, the ship hovering endlessly at a frustratingly difficult to judge distance adds little, and the fighters flying by are traveling in fairly unimaginative parallel vectors to each other and to the spaceward opening of the Outpost.

Sure, The Farm may not Tower over the last safe city on earth or Peak above a majestic mountain range, but I think it’ll be pretty cool if we’re essentially looking down into the sections of the EDZ that we’ll be exploring. Plus, it just looks that much more dynamic than any of the spaces we’ve seen so far. And if it really grows and changes like the Bungie guy said, even if it’s just getting faction reps / move civilians wandering around or working / members of the Vanguard, I’ll enjoy it all the more.

Yeah like I said, all the functionality stuff has me really excited. I just mean from a purely visual point of view, it does nothing to make me want to spend time there.

I fully agree about the Reef, by the way.

My thoughts exactly but I didn't want to be negative right out of the gate.

I don't mean to sound negative about what they've shown, because I do like it. It's just missing that sense of awe and wonder that led me to take countless screenshots in the Tower, Lighthouse, and Felwinter's Peak.

That said, if you want to first see the space in game instead of in a video, I don't blame you.

That's exactly what I want. I'd be very surprised if this area isn't in the beta regardless, so it's not like I have long to wait.

is it too early to go dark?

Definitely not. I will say, this is pretty light on spoilers. Mostly what it shows you is just the general layout. It's very quick and doesn't stick around in any area for any extended amount of time. That said, if you want to first see the space in game instead of in a video, I don't blame you.

Also, I think the "tools to call attention to yourself" is a wonderful way to put things, and pretty smart wrt to the social elements of Destiny.

I had to watch on my phone so it was tough to tell, but...

Did they finally give that welder on the roof a welding hood to wear? It really bugged me during the reveal that the welder had zero ocular or facial PPE.
