On the first mission, when you barely breach the hull by the skin of your teeth and after a brief narration by Cayde, the game goes silent for a few seconds. In that time, there is no objective marker and the game essentially forces you to find out where to go.
This is one of the most artistic and underappreciated moments in a modern game. The endless destruction visible beyond the ship contrasts with the strange biological symmetry of Hive architecture to make you feel overwhelmed and the lack of direction enforced the immensity of the enemy you face, as if you don't really know how to win.
More moments like this please Bungie.
