re: Anyone still playing Destiny on the Xbone?

I think people who followed the game in development and bought it at release have a distorted view of the game. As mentioned above, it was marketed as an open world MMO but in the style of Halo. It's definitely not an MMO, it's an FPS with RPG elements and people felt like they got burned because of that. I was lucky in that I didn't follow the game at all and I just got it for free bundled with my PS4 and I played it with literally no expectations and wow I was blown away. Just the mechanics, weapons, and level designs alone are enough to make this game great, but the RPG elements like the central hub and the social aspects were just icing on the cake. You can complain about how much you have to grind for gear, but if the gear was easy to come by then it wouldn't be rewarding to get it and most people would be done with the game in 25 hours. I hear people say that the things you have to do are repetitive...No shite! It's an FPS. No matter what, you're always just going to be shooting droves of enemies or shooting other players. Destiny actually has a more vast amount of game options than any other shooter I've ever played. If you take it for what it actually is, I don't see how anyone could be disappointed in this game

Agreed with absolutely everything you've said.

I, like you, didn't follow development. I tried the beta because of the hype, had a decent time, and decided to get the game. I had no expectations so I took it for what it was.

that's a pretty damn good assessment. I followed it for a year before release. My friends and I were so fricking excited for the game release and all I got was a stinking pile of shite haha. Like I said i'm sure the game is good now but it was shite back in February.

kige what you said.
I bought it not long after release knowing very little about it. knew it had received some hate but bought it anyway because the concept appealed to me. loved it, put many hours into it, grew old, sold it. bought it again on the xbone with both expansions after hearing it had improved. I agree it's definitely improved.
