Sonic 295 Posted September 17, 2014 A nice simple and short topic title for this. So Destiny was released last week. I've resisted the massive hype this game. I've heard that can be a somewhat underwhelming experience to actually play, it becomes a major grind when levelling up. Other people say its addicting and hard to stop playing. I'm also unsure if its worth getting on PS3. So anyone here playing it or considering getting it? Share this post Link to post
Nmenth 290 Posted September 17, 2014 Someone I know has it and has been playing it almost non-stop from the moment the servers opened. Despite his obvious obsession, he is constantly complaining about how stupid various things are about it and everything he says about the game makes it sound quite dreadful. Seems paradoxical, but it seems both are true, it is underwhelming and addicting. However, I have not actually played it myself and do not intend to, so what I have to say is essentially bias formed by hearsay. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 17, 2014 Seen way too many negative reviews of it. Hell, from "professional" sites, it's getting mediocre reviews at best. A lot of people are really disappointed by how lackluster is turned out to be. Not that I'm surprised, Bungie is ****ing awful these days. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted September 17, 2014 I really don't like playing an FPS with a controller, way to awkard for me, so I won't be getting it. That and I don't really play MMOs either. Share this post Link to post
Sonic 295 Posted September 18, 2014 I think I'll wait for a price drop before I look at buying it. But this an Activision published game, they seem to stay near full price for a long damn time. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 18, 2014 Used copies, yo. Probably the cheapest you'll get for a while. It doesn't matter though. Destiny looks like **** on those damn potato boxes. Share this post Link to post
PurpleGaga27 39 Posted September 26, 2014 From what I found about it in the TV ads, it looks more like Halo meets Assassin's Creed type of game. Too bad there's no PC version of the game. Console game of the year? Not even close. Share this post Link to post
Sonic 295 Posted October 5, 2014 So I think these videos sum up Destiny for me, probably will not bother this game... First is Angry Joe's review, his videos are great to watch as well. And the Honest Destiny Trailer... Share this post Link to post
AZ-Stalker 88 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) I fully agree with Sonic's opinion, and for the record I've always thought this game would end up exactly as it did - a big repetitive fail setup as a huge cash grab with little to no story value.

Luk3us 63 Posted October 5, 2014 Just goes to show how effective marketing can be, pity they couldn't divert some of that into development. Share this post Link to post
Guest Stevie_K Posted October 6, 2014 Watched Angry Joes review and had a laugh (that guy lives up to his name). Even if I had a console, a tv and enjoyed playing shooters with a controller I think I would steer clear of Destiny based on all the negative reviews. Share this post Link to post
