    destiny's a great game, the campaign just feels way too linear for me to give this an 8
    the pvp is really good with friends and it's just plain awesome. really fluid and smooth. so that's making me give it an 8

    Man i remember this game so much, it was such a good game. The story, the gameplay, the crucible, the strikes, the missions, everything was perfect. It never became boring even after finishing the story, D2 is a good game still but it cant compare to this masterpiece

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Multiple reviews I read here are very crazy mixed/negative reviews. About the game, I loved playing the game. I hated the unbalanced PvP but I do not think any supers or gears should be removed. I hated the feeling I got while thinking someone else said the supers and some gears should be removed. I disagree with what many people say about this but I am just not going to type more words about their thoughts about the game and the features of the game. Too bad the Destiny 2 PvP is very unbalanced. I feel like everything else or almost everything else about the game is very good. The activities are repetitive but very fun. I started playing Destiny about five years ago and I still love playing the game.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game has incredibly been one of my favorite games. It is nice how it is based on different planets. The game is good for ages 11-15 (Recommended). What is great about this game is that it has a story mode that can be played with six people online. It takes 50 minutes to do one raid but it's worth it. What is kind of sad is that Xbox Live must be bought to enjoy multiplayer missions. Once you are done with all levels, it is very boring and some people may not have the dark below, the taken king, or the house of wolves so you just do levels again. The people without Xbox Live look at the levels and feel very jealous that everyone else has it and they don't. On level 34, I did patrols and I couldn't gain any experience, something was wrong. One suggestion is to make expansion levels unlocked so it doesn't get so boring. Xbox is ridiculously stupid for having to pay online.… Expand

    When Bungie unveiled its new space opera and announced Destiny, I was ecstatic. What shooter fan wouldn’t want a Halo meets Borderlands game? The music and level scripting from Halo and the shooting and looting of Borderlands, 2 great tastes that taste great together. Perfect! Since then the game has launched and the reaction, both personally and professionally, is lukewarm. The reviewsWhen Bungie unveiled its new space opera and announced Destiny, I was ecstatic. What shooter fan wouldn’t want a Halo meets Borderlands game? The music and level scripting from Halo and the shooting and looting of Borderlands, 2 great tastes that taste great together. Perfect! Since then the game has launched and the reaction, both personally and professionally, is lukewarm. The reviews have been less than expected from what Bungie’s pedigree would have predicted and the internet has been ablaze with hilarious Twitter parody accounts. But I digress. Despite the lack of story and the busted loot system, I have been enjoying my jaunt around the universe. Maybe a little too much…
    I am a recovering WoW addict, always will be. Farming, raiding, grinding, you name it, I did it. So going on to my second full year of being Blizzard free has been a learning experience. Needless to say, I can spot a MMO when I see it. I really don’t care how Bungie tries to spin it, Destiny is a MMO.
    If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it’s not a raccoon. We have the easy comparisons. Raids, colored items and weapons, rep farming for rewards, collectable mounts. All real easy to spot as a MMO trope and Bungie can’t deny it. But what is harder to spot and not as easy to identify as a characteristic of an MMO are the social features and implications.
    Arguably the best thing to come from Destiny is the loot cave. An endless spawning black hole of green, blue and purple shinnies that have players huddled around a dirt mound shooting in a straight line. It was a fruitful process and netted me many new items and materials. And now it’s gone, hot fixed in a Thursday morning patch. But the social experience continues. Years down the road we can say “remember the loot cave?” While it does live on in a web based game, those that missed out will never know what it’s like to mindlessly shoot into a hole. Well, at least the way we did. A similar comparison is the war effort in WoW. Do you remember where you were when the Gates of Ahn’Qiraj were opened on your server? I don’t, because I wasn’t playing when that happened. That killed me as a WoW player, and continues to kill me as a Destiny player. I don’t want to miss out.
    These kind of social experiences and events are what keep me going back to Destiny. I don’t want to miss anything that the world will be talking about tomorrow. So much so that I used the Destiny LFG to join a raid group full of people I don’t know. I was in the Vault of Glass, shouting out terms like “burn the adds” and “I can rez in 5”, all for what? To say I completed raid content when it was relevant? We all know it’s not for the gear that drops, or lack thereof.
    Social gaming is a powerful tool. It keeps players interest and motivated, a blessing and a curse. But for me, it triggers too many old feelings of having to log just so that I don’t miss out on that all important pair of pants or new accessory for my digital doll.    … Expand

    However after a long time of playing it, it does get a little repetitive, especially the story mode. Once you have completed the story it gets a lot better, when you reach level 16 you can play Strikes with people online, for example with friends or randoms.

    If you buy the DLC you can get loads of brilliant, good looking armour and weapons. Making your guardian your own is one of the best things, you can make them whatever colour you want by getting different shaders etc.

    Overall I think it is definitely worth buying, especially if you're into First Person Shooters and that kind of thing.    … Expand

    This game by yourself is not going to be nearly as fun compared to when you are doing anything with your friends or even random online players. The game has small flaws, mostly PvP balance and lack of end game content. Not to an extreme (End Game wise) but there could be more to offer post 20 like Sparrow races, gambling, etc. I mostly would just like to see side activities as the 2 just listed to do with friends that isn't combat scenario's. Mini games, parkour challenges, really anything. Just something more to the game other than Raids, PoE, Strikes and PvP.

    I really do give this game a 10. Why? Not because it's perfect but this game has turned into one of the best Co-Op experiences I have ever had in the past several years. Probably the best since the 1st Borderlands. I have put so much time and had so much fun with my friends that I can't not give it a 10. The game itself may not be perfect but all the wonderful experiences I have had is rare with games now a days. No other game this year has made me and my friends do nothing but enjoy our time. Wether it was the first VoG run, bouncing the ball at the Tower or just being idiots in general. I have had an amazing time.

    I simply love the game because it has been a super fun experience, with loads of hours and craziness. Many challenging moments, many epic PvP kills and tons of those "moments" you won't forget. That is what to me, defines an MMO. Something unforgettable with friends and random people online that turn into an awesome night of gaming.

    I still play today and probably will for a long time. Thanks for reading.

    It takes a long time before this game starts feeling stale. Great graphics, mechanics and variety between characters, weapons etc. The raids (particularly VoG) make it really stand out. The things that could be improved are better matching system, less grind and dependency on randomness is rewards and a better story line.

    Extremely shallow gameplay. The story missions are nice but you are only on each planet for a very short time period before you are shuffled off onto the next planet. Once you hit 20 then the game becomes a very BORING grindfest in a poorly made MMO design.

Once you're done the story, you are faced with crushing repetition, and only the collection of stuff to keep playing for. Again, no story to drive you to keep playing, just endless loot collecting (98% of which you simply throw away because it's inferior). The soundtrack is fairly weak and the visuals are good, but not blow your mind next gen great.
    The multiplayer seems to be unable to consistently pair you with players of similar skill. Have one match even, next match you get creamed, creamed again, destroy everyone, destroy everyone, balanced, creamed, creamed, destroy. There seams to be no logic to how PvP stacks players and no logic to weapon balance either.
    Then I see that I have logged over 300 hours and realize that something about this game keeps you there. Something about being a Guardian patrolling an unstable buffer zone between Earth and it's enemies keeps you coming back. The action and enemies are so well crafted that you just enjoy shooting the same thing over and over. You enjoy running around the same maps over and over, kicking ass. Even writing this it looks insane to think that I just kept playing. I believe I have finally broken free from this madness, but for my dollars to hours ratio on this one, I have to give it at least an 8.

    A great, smooth shooter with endless storyless hours of gameplay. Addictive personalities beware, this game will own you.    … Expand

    Destiny ISN'T Halo 2.0 or like the majority of FPS games available. People that approach this with that kind of expectation are likely to be disappointed in certain aspects.

There is a distinct    Destiny ISN'T Halo 2.0 or like the majority of FPS games available. People that approach this with that kind of expectation are likely to be disappointed in certain aspects.

    First off the campaign. This is certainly an area that is lacking in depth and quality of story we expect from the majority of FPS games and after Bungie gave us Halo we expected so much more. There is a distinct lack of story and the missions tend to be the same - either ending in a boss fight or waves of enemies. This really has a negative impact on the campaign part of the game but its not until you reach the end-game that the reason the mission structure and lack of cut-scenes are designed this way becomes apparent. They are like mini 'Strikes' and are used for 'Daily' missions for end game activity and extra rewards - this wouldn't be possible or at least work as well if the missions were more traditional. I feel as though Bungie sacrificed 'Story' to provide more end game content.

    The campaign begins on Earth and as you progress through you unlock each new area until all 4 are opened up. On each area you can access the available activities whether that be individual campaign missions - something you have to do when playing through the campaign as it doesn't play through automatically, Strikes - 3 player co-op missions, Raid - 6 player co-op mission or Patrol - free roam mode. Each activity begins in a 'public' area that can be occupied by other players and you are free to go pretty much anywhere in the area - even on a mission or strike - so you can get involved in Public Events, go hunting for resources/loot or just go straight to the objective.

    Strikes are the co-op part of the game and require a fireteam of 3 so if you don't have 2 others, the game will matchmake for you. These follow the same sort of pattern as the campaign mission with an end boss to beat. Raids are the pinnacle of this and by far the best content in the PvE area of the game. They are a 6 player co-op mode that requires communication and co-ordination. As such there is no matchmaking so require you to find people - either friends or people you meet playing Destiny (there are websites available too to find players) so you can find people that will compliment your fireteam and speak the same language.

    Things like the Raid are part of the end-game content and for me the best part of Destiny.

    Destiny also has a PvP mode with the usual team deathmatch mode but also a few other modes. Its not as varied as something like CoD but it's certainly fun. Other games have very separate areas - Campaign is very separate to co-op which is also separate from MP, but Destiny tries to tie all these together. Your 'Gaurdian' does everything and earns XP in all areas. Weapons and Armour acquired in PvP can be used in PvE and vice versa. In other FPS games, once you beat the campaign, there is little reason to return unless achievement hunting but in Destiny you can and probably will end up playing the missions a lot for bounties or Daily mission rewards.

    In terms of the game mechanics, everything feels solid I can't fault it on this. It does everything you expect from a FPS and does it well. Some enemies are a bit of a bullet sponge - namely the bosses - but the array of weaponry and supers feel great to use. Visually this game is stunning too. Venus in particular looks incredible. There are similarities in enemy behaviour to those seen in Halo which isn't a bad thing as they used cover, jumped out of the way of grenades or swarmed at you.

    There is so much to do daily - with bounties - both PvP and PvE, missions etc as well as weekly too. Lots of weapons and armour to collect and upgrade that it can keep you playing for many many hours. In terms of value (cost per hour) it could be one of the best buys you make and for that reason alone it earns extra marks. Like I said if you are expecting Halo 2.0 and a traditional Campaign and story then you will be disappointed but Destiny has tried to be 'different'. Its certainly much better with friends but there is still fun to be had Solo.    … Expand

    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]
