ITT: Underrated gems
Destiny is at the lowest low they've been at since launch
Severe drought of content, what the fuck is bungie doing. By this time last year, we had Dark Below and HoW was a month away. We haven't gotten shit since TTK
>>333007494
b-but the spring update!
>Endgame PvE revolves around doing the same monotonous strikes and raids for a chance at better gear
>Literally the worst and most unbalanced PvP out of any FPS across 7th and 8th gen
Nah, Destiny is fucking trash.
>>333007556
Is gonna bring back content that shouldn't have been phased out in the first place. Other MMOs are able to phase out content because they actually have other shit to offer. Bungie phased out 2 raids and PoE in exchange for 1 fucking raid. TTK was a fucking mistake
You know, I bought TTK edition and the whole time I was playing, I didn't understand the hate the game got. Sure it grinding up the light level was a little annoying but thankfully I had the DLC for free pretty much so I didnt mind that. Even had some fun with /dg/ being my guides through Vault of Glass and Crota's End.
Then it was on my third week of Kingsfall that I realized "wait, this is it. This is all there is to Destiny"
And I shut it off and never touched it again.
>>333007772
I'd say try some Crucible but as it is right now it's irredeemable dogshit
>>333007679
indeed.
It's amazing to see how 90% of the people who defend it are dudebro trash who pay $120 for the same COD every year.
>>333007785
>1997
>From Software
Wait what the fuck? I thought they started with Demon Souls?
>>333007920
7th gen baby please go and stay go
>>333007920
Nope they made games wayyy before the souls games. Not many people know that and the games are amazing.
>>333007901
Funnily enough the people who bought me the game and wanted me to play it with them all abandoned it because of how bad it is. I seriously do not understand how Bungie can be so incompetent as a developer and allow the game to fall into such a state.
>>333007772
>this is all there is
So? You play it for fun like any game, and you grind for gear like any MMO/shoot n loot
>>333008094
Yeah but Kingsfall was terrible. People still fail the vanilla version from what I hear
>>333008230
Blame Bungie for not allowing people to easily attempt raids with no matchmaking, don't have 5 other friends who play this trash? Well guess what time to use a 3rd party site to try and scrounge up a party to try and play.
>>333008230
Not surprising, most people are total shitters who crumble when the simplest of mechanics and teamwork is required
I sold mine. Waiting for the Destiny 2 announcement. There is just nothing left for THIS game, they need the new one for me to come back. I literally own all the exotics one can own and I have nothing left to do.
>>333008230
I used to run vault and crota every week but I ran kings fall once and never wanted to do it again
>>333007083
>le gem
One of the most depressing games I've ever played.
>>333008365
>Expected to finish raid with randoms
Lets me tell you, the only chance you can finish the raid with good party is when they actual put the effort to go out 3rd party website to find raid mate.
>>333008434
Vault was perfect, crota was boring, and kingsfall requires you to spin a ton of plates instead of offering a good challenge.
Warpriest is the best part of the raid, followed by crossing the chasm of ramming dildos, followed by the ship hopping and the rest is total dogshit
I wonder if bungie ashamed of how openly and obviously biased they are towards warlocks
Bungie is dead.
>>333008690
It doesn't matter at all, why not give people the OPTION to try it with matchmaking. I literally affects no one other than the people who want to do matchmaking. AND THERE IS STILL NO MATCHMAKING FOR PRISON OF ELDERS AND NIGHTFALLS ARE THESE PEOPLE FUCKING RETARDED? HOW DO THEY FUCK UP SUCH BASIC FUCKING CO OP MECHANICS? Destiny is literally the most asocial "social" game I've ever experienced.
>>333007772
>"wait, this is it. This is all there is to Destiny"
imagine that but with 1/4th the content
you have vanilla Destiny
>>333009156
but all pre-TTK gear is useless, so it was, in fact, 1/4th of the content
>>333008897
No it would actually be detrimental to even let people try to raid with randoms. It would be frustrating and impossible and would make people give up on raiding entirely.
What the game needs is an in-game LFG system where you can make LFG posts and stuff, with your own requirements and invite people who seem to be suitable for raiding
At least Bungie new how to do Forge and customer games with Halo. Literally the main thing I was looking forward to in Halo 5 and it's broken because of no fucking file browser and lack of fucking game modes.
>>333007494
whoa, I admit I played the first week of taken king but I dropped that shit after it became clear bungie was never going to make a game with content made to last beyond 2 weeks.
And you poor fucks still don't have anything new? Damn.
>>333009467
I've never like Halo all that much but even I know the Bungie who made those games are dead and gone.
Particula is so underrated
>>333007083
>Bland Gear Treadmill, now with added bullet sponges
>good in any way.
>>333007785
Now we're talking.
>>333010831
Didn't even mention the absolute abysmal pvp, it's literally the worst fucking fps game pvp wise I've ever played.
>>333008682
Can confirm.
>>333008682
Not even depressing until the out of left field ending. So I'm not even entirely certain that it counts as a depressing game because the "ending" felt so goddamn out of place and tacked on.
>>333012342
Can you spoil it for me?
Game is fucking shit. Zero content. You get to run the same raid over and over. And that's really all there is to PVE content. You have strikes but they are pointless to do they give you nothing. Hell the nightfall used to be alright but last I remember it was worthless as well. And this whole spring update from what I have heard isn't even all of the old raids getting raised to max light. It's just fucking shitty PoE. And the "new" gear you get from it is just the old ugly PoE gear with a taken skin. Garbage.
>>333016041
Oh and the PvP is pointless as well. Why would I play that when there are tons of other shooters that do the same thing better.
>yfw people try to min-max their Destiny armor
What in the fuck. I recently was talking to people who do this. Why?
>>333007083
Obligatory
>>333007083
Really? Give me some redeeming qualities of this game
>>333016734
You can be palpatine
>>333016304
Because strength is shit for most classes, especially titans
>>333016753
But it's a shit subclass. Literally I don't know many warlocks that like it
>>333016831
>implying any of the content is difficult enough for it to truly matter
>>333008230
How the fuck do people seriously fuck up the raid? Are people this bad at games? Are they really this retarded. Destiny raid "mechanics" are not difficult at all. The raid is easy.
>>333008854
They only have themselves to blame.
And Activition.
>>333007083
There is literally nothing to do in this game after you've beaten the raids and even more nothing if you didn't buy Taken King
I don't mind some grinding but this was the worst offender
>>333017073
Literally the only thing to work for is the same gear with optimal stats. This game is shit and a glorified skinner box, except at least the skinner box is consistent.
>>333016943
lol you dont play the game very much then
>>333017689
When is storm caller ever worthwhile? Like really.
>>333008094
Bro Jewstiny is fucking ass
>having money sitting in PSN collecting dust
>want some new ish to play
>see Jewstiny has the maximum Jew pack for a low price
>play all the lame SP stuff
>my sis starts playing but because she's a grill she makes a bunch of literal who friends to do raids with
>I don't give a fuck about any of that I just want shoot
>get to a point where the grind gets boring and realize the ride won't end till I get off
>SFV's around the corner anyway
>stop playing
Haven't touched that shit stain in over 2 months
>>333017741
It's widely considered to be extremely OP in pvp because you can double the duration with a perk, literally kill the enemy team and then kill them again when they spawn
>>333017865
>destiny pvp
But seriously most of the people I play with run sunsinger. And even if not that they'd use voidwalker before storm caller. Although I guess maybe that's because we mostly did trials
>>333007679
>Endgame PvE revolves around doing the same monotonous strikes and raids for a chance at better gear
So Diablo 2? I thought /v/ loved Diablo 2.
>>333018473
Not really. The strikes are pretty pointless to do, so you just have one single raid. Definitely if you can already complete the raid. And the raid isn't exactly so great that you want to keep doing it over and over.
How did everything go so wrong with Destiny? It was suppose to save the PS4.
>>333007494
>removing the grind from an MMO
>still make it short and easy to level
what the fuck did they think was going to happen?
>>333019185
In all honesty if they had more of a grind it wouldnt help either. The content is not good enough and there isn't enough of it to make you want to do it over and over
>>333008423
This. Great example of a game better than the sum of its parts.
>>333019115
so boring
and absolutely garbage combat
i love how everyone who talks shit about the game actually never played it and just say the things other say
>too grind
>no content
>>333019628
I have played the game though. What fucking content is there?
Serious question. Why does Destiny have ELO? Isn't that a league of legends thing
>>333019115
Activision
The irony is that if Bungie had pitched it to MS, let them take a short break from Halo, it would've been the game it deserved
I just bought the Legendary Edition for 10 euros
The gunplay, setting, aesthetics, graphics and sound design are fucking great, but the actual content is pretty lacking.
>>333019628
>Single-player missions
>Strikes (Single-player missions, but with matchmaking!)
>PvP
>Raids (No incentive to play them more than once aside from maybe a cool shader)
>That completely forgettable arena mode
Am I missing anything
>>333019717
It's a shooter. The content is shooting monster. What content is there in Doom or Quake or Duke3D?
>>333020225
And the real kicker is other than PvP all of that shit is pointless to do if you are able to do the raid. There is literally 0 incentives to do them
>friend buys destiny despite me telling him it's shit
>other friend tells me it's fun
>bite the bullet since it's on sale
>go in with open mind
>after grinding strikes for about 4 hours I realize my preconception about the game was spot on
>it's shit
sure wish used copies of destiny without the dlc had a resale value
>>333007920
FUCKING NORMIES GET OFF MY BOARDREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>333007785
The entire catalog of AC games on ps2 are all fantastic.
>tfw will never get to play them for the first time again
>>333020348
There's crucible bounties that give you nightfall tier rewards
>>333020912
>The entire catalog of AC games on ps2
There is no AC game on PS2.
First was on x360 gen in 2007 you retard.
>>333022291
And last I remember nightfall rewards are pretty shit now right? At least not nearly as good as they used to be.
I like it. I think Bungie seriously misjudged how quickly they could make content and how quickly people would burn through it.
I'll buy Destiny 2 since I think theres a great idea in all of this. That and I think the gunplay is tight.
>>333022891
Wooooow. You're literally retarded.
>>333022891
That abbreviation will always be Armored Core. Ass Creed sucks cock.
>>333023191
Don't do it anon. Destiny 2 won't be any better. Of they haven't learned their lesson yet they never will
>>333022891
>Not seeing that they were referring to Armoured Core
>>333023372
I think the fact that started on Destiny 2 so quickly kinda show they knew the basic framework of D1 was a bust. I think they learned their lesson just fine. Honestly, the game still feels like a Beta in a lot of ways but is still more enjoyable than most of the trash out there to me.
>>333023485
I thought they were working on Destiny 2 already because their contract with Activision had all of this already laid out. So they are basically right on schedule
