P3te Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Enjoyable enough, but the most expensive game of all time? They must have blown the budget on drugs and hookers. It's not the most expensive game of all time, that's been spun to the high heavens. The Destiny "project" costing is $500m, that includes 10 years worth of games, dlc, support, marketing, pr and all other associated costs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rino8 Posted September 13, 2014 Visiting Supporter Share Posted September 13, 2014 Nobody has mentioned the voice acting by Peter Dinklage in this. I know he's literally voicing a robo but it's just awful. The script being uninspiring at its best probably doesn't help but, jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 He's phoning it in. I'm sure they only picked him because he is hot at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Looking past me being crap at console shooters, I just don't enjoy this at all. It's incredibly repetitive and there's nothing really to encourage me to keep playing. The same dull enemies over and over, the levels in each zone look so similar on a couple of occasions I've played through a level I've already finished and it's taken half the level for my to notice. Feels like Borderlands if you took all of the interesting loot out of it, I think I'll be trading this in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risso Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Well, I have to say that actually, this is a load of old turd. Boring, repetitive levels and gameplay, there's just very little to recommend it at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted September 14, 2014 Author VT Supporter Share Posted September 14, 2014 Aye, if I didn't have a digital copy I'd trade it in. Such a disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Wow a 6/10 from Gamespot Looks like another triple A title that has gone down the shitter It sold so many copies as well never believe the hype Edited September 14, 2014 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Bungie were in damage limitation mode even before the release, it should have been obvious. They built up a lot of good will through Halo, but their next releases should be treated with suspicion until after release. Who am I kidding, they'll still sell millions of preorders. Played this again today for a few hours as a lot of friends are playing it so I wanted to enjoy it enough to keep playing, but it's just complete shite. One of the most vapid underwhelming games I've ever played. Hold square, kill a few waves of enemies, ad infinitum.

Going to trade it in ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I seem to have avoided a bullet! Very happy I saved my pennies for the upcoming FIFA/GTA games Feel sorry for the people that got caught up in the hyper though, £50 is a lot of money to spend and be disappointing with, I guess you could trade in? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet all the good stuff will come in updates and DLC. Which I won't be purchasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyjsg Posted September 15, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'm still enjoying it. Its probably a 8 out of 10 at best but not as awful as some are making out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzavfc Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) I think the main legacy of the game will be that it got a lot of people to actually 'upgrade' to a next gen console I'd love to see how many PS4s Sony sold this month, on the back of Destiny bundles Re the game: I like it, i've yet to really play it solo, but in a group of friends it's a solid enough title Edited September 16, 2014 by Mozzavfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted September 16, 2014 Author VT Supporter Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) I seriously have no desire to pick up this game again. I played the Beta for longer than the full release which really says something. I've probably spent 3-4 hours playing the full games and I'm bored to **** of it already. Apparently the new Raid modes which open up today require you to be at level 26? That's ridiculous if true. Also, you need to have 6 friends to play with to play a Raid, there's no matchmaking if you're playing solo.... WTF!

kurtsimonw Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I avoided it as I'm not a fan of Halo and it just seemed very Halo-like to me, I could be terribly wrong, but I think I'll definitely give it a miss with all the posts in here. Activision must be laughing. Last year it was BF coming out first and being awful which helped Ghosts sell, this year it's Destiny. They don't even need to advertise at this point.
