This game is the whole reason I bought a PS4, but I can't blame Destiny for my dissapointment. It did a few things right, but a lot of things wrong such as the leveling system and Kylo Ren kills Han Solo. He is also Han Solo's child

I played it day one. It was shitty in every regard except the gunplay (and that wasn't even as good as my favourite Halo moments). I played after TTK and it was still shitty in every regard, though not as much.
I'm likely the wrong audience for a game like this. I've already experienced games that do everything Destiney does, but better, so I can see what Bungie was trying to do, but they failed to learn from the past successes of the industry and shit out a terribly mediocre blockbuster.
Destiny is the Avatar of video games.
>>
>>320445943
Yes, after 40+ dollars worth of DLC content. I don't even want to compare it to Warframe because Warframe has a lot of problems, but at least new content is free And the combat is much varied and fun.

Yeah, its great how you can pay thirty dollars to skip playing any of the actual game.
>>
>>320447493
30$ to skip to level 30 a thing that takes about 5 hours

In a game with only 3 character slots that's been out for about a year

It's pretty good, it simply focuses too much on the metagame and not enough on the raw fun of the gameplay.

Sometimes I load up the game just do a few strikes, then log off. I just want Bungie to give me a good reason to go and shoot dudes, but I struggle to find one.

Also who /hunter/ here?

Day one player here that has spent hundreds of hours on it. You're full of shit. If anything it's gotten worse and I'll tell you how, all these DLC's were chances for Bungie to fix the game up and make it better. Maybe the first two, they couldn't do much, I figured. TTK was going to be where they turned it all around, right? Nope. 40$ for about 2 days of actual content (half of this content is reusing old assets and areas and putting LE SUPER ORIGINAL TAKEN in it instead) and the rest is grinding the same 3 strikes over and over. Bungie had many chances to redeem themselves and they keep fucking it up. Instead of bitching about it for another year, I finaqlly jumped ship from the crash wreck back in October and boy am I happy that I did

>>320445943
absolutely no reason to play. Just wait 3 years, buy the ultimate collectors for 30$, includes everything and the weapons then make everything you had and did obsolete. You will be at the EXACT same spot as everyone else.
>>
>>320445943
Gunplay is great, art design is great, and music is good.

Light levels are annoying, and there was practically zero content on release even though they were obviously done or near done the content for the expansions.

Expansions cost way too much, and then for the Taken King there is no way just to upgrade, you have to re-buy the game again. I bought one DLC pack (hoping I may get good amounts of content out of it) and now I'm stuck with buying a full price game for what is essentially two DLC packs. This is probably the worst case of DLC pricing I have ever seen.

I really want to love the game but it's just all put together so poorly. And thats ignoring the fact that all of the lore (ALL of it) is locked away in a separate site because apparently putting those logs you pick up IN GAME readable IN GAME is too fucking hard.

Also I pretty much never play the game with other people so raids/other content is out, which means its pretty much impossible for me to save up to buy legendaries as the only repeatable events were for 3+ players.

Played vanilla and i actually had a lot of fun
but unfortunately, all my friends are "pc mustard race" so im pretty much playing alone on my PS4 and i couldnt find decent groups for dungeons/raids so i didnt even bother buying the expansions.
From what ive heard, the last expansion actually was great and made the game pretty good.Will prolly buy all of them when they are on a sale or smth,
I can see why people hate it tho, it couldve been SO MUCH BETTER(at least vanilla, dunno about now)

I'm sick and fucking tired of people touting this about Destiny. Every sniper has AA out the ass. Every weapon type has been nerfed into the ground until only a few are viable. Gee, I hope you didn't want to shoot anything but the exact same aliens that spawn in the exact same spots and follow the exact same AI patterns every single time. That's fun, right?

They literally just need to put the LFG system in game. Seriously, that's all they need to do. I use LFG sometimes, but the fact that the game is designed in such a way that you NEED to use something not in-game to complete content, then it's the developers fault, not the players.

True, but there are ways to get people to play with and that's what most people do, so you can either have fun with the game by doing what you can, or you can sit there playing alone just to spite the devs. What you're doing is like refusing to mod a PC game because the game shouldn't require you to use mods.

You know how stupid that sounds, right? All they need to do is let you press one button while in orbit, then navigate a menu selecting what you want to do, and with whom you want to do it with. When everyone is okay with the party, then they go into the activity.

Im not saying they need to add matchmaking to raids, but they seriously need to implement a party search function in game.

It's fun for casuals

A) invite random people from tower
B) invite random people from recently played
C) join a group of random people using a website


But no, having a matchmaking system that would just match you with random people quicker would make the raids too difficult!
>>
>>320454438
I would love a raid matchmaking system. Used to run Kings fall every weekend, but my clan members dropped out once Fallout and Halo came out.
>>
>>320453647
>An LFG system would be fucking cancerous. Dumbasses like you that don't understand how shit people are deserve to have it though. If there was ingame LFG I 100% guarantee you casuals would have dropped it IMMEDIATELY by being kicked for being so shit.

I agree. But if it was in-depth enough and allowed you to thoroughly inspect people before they join (even view their number of raid completions, grimoire, hours spent in the game) it could work.

>create invite only lobby
>people can apply to join
>party leader can inspect applicants and invite them if they don't look like shitters, even message them to ask questions if they want

>create open lobby
>anyone can join

>create private lobby
>only friends can join, friends get a notification when you create a lobby

That's all it needs.

The reason you or anyone plays it is because you're addicted to a fucking skinner box. You are literally admitting to 90% of the game being trash and yet, "i-it's fun"
Jesus fuck dude, have pity on yourself.

But I was having a good day until you typed, with what presumably is a straight face, that it's ok to let a game almost entirely dictated by RNG drops to have several weapon types (not just gins, entire weapon types) drop that are not only bad, they're outright unviable. Because, as you said, "maybe I should just learn not to use them!" furthering an increasingly narrowing meta and homogenizing any "fun" gunplay even further.
Seriously, eat a dick. That's the most retarded shit I've ever heard.
>>
>>320454620
No no, according to bungie it would be too difficult to do the raids with random strangers, sorry.

You need to have 5 friends who constantly play destiny as well and are all available when you are playing :)
>>
I don't care what anyone says, the Grimoire of this game is fantastic.
>>
>>320454242

BO3 co op is literally thevery most fun I have had this gen.

I own Destiny and BO3 shits all over it.

Don't ask me about pvp because I don't play pvp on either game.
>>
>>320455052
Just be sure to go ahead and look it up on a website first! :^)
I, Deej, am here to announce our new addition, 5 new grimoire cards for the low price of $20.00!
>>
>>320454438
Just bought a PS4 so I have like zero friends. Having to use a 3rd party site is a big PITA especially when you have to be 300+ for every fucking little thing. I really enjoy the game otherwise.
>>
>>320455052
You know what would be even better?

If the game had more than a shred of that lore included within the ACTUAL game


I mean halo always had expanded universe and lore in novels, but a large portion could actually be learned by playing the fucking game

I hate when people bitch and complain about not having access to the Grimoire, you can read the shit right here

>>320454438
An ingame LFG system would kill their core audience if done wrong, which they very likely will. Something like >>320454718 is the best you'll get, but even that's a risk because now instead of leddit and co bitching about 3rd party websites having 'ridiculous' requirements for LFG, they'll be blaming Bungie and people won't want to even play the game.

>>320454904
You're assuming I think it's fun. I'm telling you why it's fun for most people. Not you fucking sweaty neckbeards here.
>>
>>320445943
it has no content
and now its getting micro transactions
its crap
>>
>>320455414
>just be sure to follow this handy website and peruse at your leisure, it's so stupid to have games tell their own story
You couldn't have missed the point harder if you tried.
>>
>>320455414
The problem is that you can't read it in-game, and have to resort to third-party sites just to read the whole thing, AND none of that lore is referenced in the game.
Bit of an over statement, but still.
>>
>>320455629
Everyone knows

>>320445943
I haven't played an FPS before this since '06, but I'm having fun with this thing.

You literally said "it's a fun game" in the post that was replied to.
Most people are retards. Candy crush is extremely popular.

Destiny: the MMO with 99% of what makes MMO's fun removed

No trading
No socializing with other players
No group finding
Linear questing with no choice at all in how you level
Bare minimum RPG elements that boil down to "use this perk to have a little more defense, use this one to have a little more attack"

And what's left? The grinding for weapons and gear, and microtransactions of course
>>
>>320455760
>shit games can't be fun.
Let me fix my previous statement. It was fun. Not so much anymore.
>>
>>320455864
its also not massive and has almost no content
>>
>>320447216
You cheeky mother fucker
>>
>>320455864
Forgot to mention
No story
Absurdly over priced and lazily made DLC (They didn't even bother to record new Ghost dialougue, he is mute in HoW and TDB)
Very small areas you will continually return to and kill the same enemies

I guess it has nice graphics and music, that's it

Sure?

Not having matchmaking is one of its two major crimes.

Not having an in game story is the other.

The gunplay feels pretty good but everything is a bit too smooth and refined and lacks any sort of true edge. Because of that it can get a bit boring.

Some of the best music and definitely the best presentation of any game ever though.

I wish I could enjoy it more but I can't.
>>
>>320455979
According to bungie, grinding and redoing raids and wasting your life in crucible qualifies as content
>>
>>320456292
yeah but they made all the raids pointless and removed levels from crucible
whats even the point
>>
>>320445943
Games should be good on day one not after 3 expansions.
>>
>>320456341
There isn't one

Thank GOD there will be no more DLC for Destiny

I really really really want the sequel to be good. They have amazing lore, and opportunities to create almost anything they want.

If it turns out to be another shallow, empty, boring, lifeless grindfest I will officially lose faith in bungie

I basically already have after how shit destiny was and is, and how they fired Marty O'Donnell
>>
>>320456570
its just gonna be the same thing
probably with microtransactions
>>
>>320455360
I still see people say Hunter needs buffs
>>
>>320456652
>by existing, microtransactions ruin a game!
They ruin it when they become P2W or even a bit more than cosmetic. As is, they're fine.
>>
If you don't get rock fucking solid using MIDA then you are missing out.
>>
>>320456220
Officially off /v/ now
>>
>>320456668
It does. It still pales in comparison to Stormcaller and Sunbreaker.
>>
>>320456776
do you honestly think they won't?
they are just easing you in so when you gain the ability to buy super exotics you'll go OH ITS NOT THAT BAD
>>
>>320457072
Funbreaker just got nerfed, it's reasonable now. Stormcaller is still fucking dumb with Transcendence though. Bladedancer is still good, Nightstalker is good, Gunslinger is good not to mention Hunters have other good abilities other than Supers.

I think Warlocks in general are still fucking overpowered though, holy fuck.

>Sunsinger gets overshield on hit with a Warlock's 5 mile melee range
>Defenders get overshield on kill with T-Rex arms
>>
>>320457617
>Golden gun gets 3 shots with a 12 second duration
>Sunbreaker gets 5-7 shots, each with the potential to kill multiple people, with a 27 second duration

Yeah, Sunsingers aren't the only ones.
>>
>>320445943
>have to literally pay 90 US dollars so the game isn't fucking bad

I got the Legendary edition of TTK for like $15 but, goddamn, this thing is a mess without the expansions. You can hardly play matchmaking after it.
>>
>>320456776
>as is, they're fine
>but there's literally P2W shit there now
????
>>
>>320456776
That's exactly what micro transactions do, Shillary.
>>
>>320458521
>Being scared of Sunbreaker after the nerf

Hammers don't track as well, dodging them is pathetically easy now. Not to mention when Hammer of Sol is activated literally everyone on the map knows it.

I don't even think Sunbreakers are the best Titan class now, I think Strikers are the best now.
>>
>>320459038
Not scared, it's just that there's a huge dissonance between two functionally similar supers. All the old subclasses need a buff not just the Titan ones that Bungie did in the last patch.

you wouldn't need matchmaking if your friend didn't kick your ass to lfg for being so shit at the game

Or maybe if Bungie implemented a concept that they themselves pioneered in games Destiny was heavily inspired by.

But yeah, blame the playerbase some more.

My friends dont play shitty games like destiny anon

Unfortunately that means I have to play with autistic rando's

You mean has gotten all the content they stripped before releasing it thus conning everyone to buy it thinking they improved it. Nah bruh. It's shit
>>
I know a lot of casuals who are or were addicted to it. Still looks generic to me.
>>
>>320450521
That people already paid 150 euro to play this game.

That people who dont buy taken king cant even play old content or crucible anymore?
>>
>>320445943
>progressively better since day one.
Except that with the taken king the stuff from day one is rendered obsolete, from the weapons to the gear -- hell, even the previous DLC's aren't worth doing. TK introduced more farming and microtransactions. Also you get an instant lv. 25 token to further skip Vanilla destiny and go directly to TK. The story of TK has a handful of story missions.

I did like the unlimited power Ult from the warlock and the waifu that "died".

I didn't pay $120 for it so I'm completely happy with it. I'll probably leapfrog the next XPAC or two and pick em all up for cheap in a bundle like I did the first time.
>>
I just want to say that this game relies heavily on addiction habbits. Instead of gambling real money, you're gambling your time at the slim hope RNGesus smiles upon you.

Don't get hooked, and if you do, quit it cold turkey.
>>
>>320463772
lol
>>
>>320463772
Eh, I've been playing since vanilla launched and have only ever played for fun, really. At the end of the day that's the reason you play video games.
>>
>>320445943
4/10 game at best, and I was cautiously optimistic

Honestly confused as to why anybody is still playing it, it's not like it ever changes or evolves in any way after you learn to double jump

yeah a game where your given literal fucking instant kill moves because your too garbage to aim. literal retards that play gayblow 5 : just fuck my lore up edition have more skill than you.
