    I thought I would like this game because my friends loved it, but wow. This game is crap. The most repetitive, un-engaging thing I've ever played. The movement is stiffer than arthritis, the quests are the same every time, and the characters look like men in makeup who had their balls cut off. "Glimmer", "Taken", "Chosen"? All the words in this game sound like they were TAKEN out ofI thought I would like this game because my friends loved it, but wow. This game is crap.

All the words in this game sound like they were TAKEN out of Cinderella. The Crucible isn't even playable until at least level 25 because of the leveling advantage. I'm sad I wasted my life on this game.… Expand

    By far the worst game I've ever played. the grinding, terrible RNG loot, the unbalanced pvp, the lag, amateur wave based level design, lack of content, classes that don't actually change the gameplay, few weapon types, constant loading screen, lying by the devs, micro transactions, they even have a character level boost to 25 for $30, are you **** kidding me?? .... bungie should be ashamedBy far the worst game I've ever played. the grinding, terrible RNG loot, the unbalanced pvp, the lag, amateur wave based level design, lack of content, classes that don't actually change the gameplay, few weapon types, constant loading screen, lying by the devs, micro transactions, they even have a character level boost to 25 for $30, are you **** kidding me?? .... bungie should be ashamed of what they've created. activision should pull the plug on the game.… Expand

    The main story line is so generic and boring, it's too short, and has no substantial content to the game. I beat the full thing in 7-8 hours and just felt unfulfilled. The full story has to be unlocked through the DLC, which is just a disgusting way to make a game. Everything in missions just feels the same, and quite plain. The overall controls of the game are fine, and the actual weaponThe main story line is so generic and boring, it's too short, and has no substantial content to the game.

The overall controls of the game are fine, and the actual weapon mechanics work fine, but its just over too quick, and unless you want to shell out $50+ 6 years after launch for the DLC, its not worth getting.… Expand

    The game isn't often the problem. Destiny is a huge pile of trash but other people are hell. If its not PVP sweats its raid groups. The 4/10 isn't for destiny its for the human race.

    Este juego le ha hecho mucho daño a la industria del videojuego por querer hacerlo como servicio, algo que ahora muchas empresas hacen y terminan muy mal. Gracias, maldito Destiny

    So say there is [almost] no story whatsoever… those people are correct… there’s actually a story behind what happened and explains you you need to know about why to stay away from it… Boo forced multiplayer & macrotransactions galore

    Considered a 4/10 (was 3/10) but the insult of going from Halo to letting it rot while dropping this p.o.s. on us then dEsTiNy poo is just a slap in the face    So say there is [almost] no story whatsoever… those people are correct… there’s actually a story behind what happened and explains you you need to know about why to stay away from it… Boo forced multiplayer & macrotransactions galore

    It's a slick, mechanically sound, and lavishly produced shooter that uses beauty to try and mask the potentially great but uninspired gameplay inside. [Issue#117, p.62]

    Destiny feels like the key elements of an FPS and an MMO gently resting shoulder to shoulder, instead of being fused together in a truly creative way. It plays and looks great, and offers many, many hours of entertainment to anyone okay with repeating the same tasks, but it isn’t exactly the game-changing science fiction epic we felt it was aspiring to.

    An ambitious if repetitive combination of shooter and loot based ARPG. A boost in loot drop frequency could definitely boost the fun/score. [Issue#254, p.47]
