Destiny: Game Review.
11 years ago
General
So I picked up Destiny, Bungies latest game. I played it at midnight of its release. I played it for 3 days. With in those 3 days I feel comfortable giving it my review.
From my 3 days of play, I have decided that Destiny is a waste of $60. Here's why.
I beat it in 48 hours. I played the story and it did not play as advertised. It was a very short story with no real expasive campain. There was 5 places to go. 1 of which had absolutly nothing. I honestly feel like I wasted my time. Like there wasn't 40 hours of gameplay. Maybe 10. Not counting BS'ing around.
The level cap is 20. That is a rediculesly low level cap. And the only to go highier is to get armor with a special buff. But whats the point of getting a highier level when theres nothing to do?
The competitiv multiplayer is utter trash. Hunters and warlocks can destroy anyone, and everyone runs around with shotguns. Grenades are almost useless, melee is useless. Its just bad.
The strikes are ok, but they get boring quickly because you do the same one over and over and they offer no significant reward.
Raids are byfar the worst, You can't even do them unless you have 5 other players with you. And they HAVE to be you're friends.
The game is hevily dependent on DLC. The 2 DLC's will increase the story, strikes etc. All stuff that should have been in the game to start with.
The character custmization was mediocre. Choose a face (Out of 6) Choose hair (Again out of 6) Choose colors and a feature (war paint, etc) and then go into the game.
Armour/weapon custimization. There was none. The best you could do is change the color (At level 20) by buying shaders which cost about $4,000 a piece, and weapons? you are lucky if you can put a diffrent sight on it.
In hindsight, Destiny was way over hyped. I actualy plan on returning it with in the week. Its just to short, the MP sucks, and it was not as advertised. It was a real disapointment.
On a 1 to10 scale, Destiny is a 3. Its jsut not that great.
