the story is about the same just more of them to do in D1 but shorter then the main ones in D2 if the main story was stopping the Vex in the Black Garden. They turned side story shit in D2 into adventures where in the first game was just side storty shit.To be fair I agree with all 5 of their points...
-the story is better
-Guided Games is a good idea just not well executed
-leveling up is much easier and much less grindy
-the map / fast travel and new UI is much better
-there is absolutely more shit to do than there was in D1.
Watch Mojo pinned a comment at the top explaining they meant to get this video out a long time ago but didn't get around to it. I also think it's likely they were comparing Vanilla D1 to Vanilla D2. While D2 turned out to be a shit show the 5 things listed by Watch Mojo were certainly upgrades over D1.
Guided Games is meh there was lfg websites for that with less BS and without the wait but like you said was a good ideal.
Leveling up wasn't a problem until you was trying to get to max lvl and couldn't get any shards or energies other then raiding or rng rewards. You're still get stuck in D2 trying to get to max LL if you're not running the Nightfall, Raid, or Trials and just doing weekly objectives.
The map is a ton better but them same the planets are bigger is bs the Moon was the smallest one in the base game and it's still bigger then Titan. The EDZ and Nessus are bigger but Mar was a big are just sa bunch of dead space and Venus was big too even Earth was big just a lot of dead space. They just filled the maps better and made the enemies respawn in D2.
As for more shit to do that's debatable there was more PvP game types in the base D1, there is the same amount of strikes but D1 also had the Eagle, Viper, Wolf, and Tiger modifiers, there was daily PvP and PvE bounties in D1 compared to the daily and weekly stuff in D2. They've added more events in D2 which is a plus but took away the ability to buy shit in D2. There's more public event types in D2 and lost sectors the patrols are the same but being locked in one area in D2 is retarded.
