Yeah, destiny was pretty buns. I played the alpha, beta, and then day 1 to the Oryx release. I played through all the new content in less than a day. Beat the raid after some more farming. Then when all of my gear was immediately obsolete, and all that farming and everything else went to waste, I quit.
Good multiplayer though, albeit a bit easy. Overall destiny is a pretty solid shooter but it's an awful MMO/RPG.
I've since gotten back into final fantasy 14: online and I'm not regretting it. I'd rather pay $10/mo and have a truly remarkable online experience, and a constantly evolving world with more and more content. I've logged hundreds of hours in that game and am not even close to finishing everything there is to do. Destiny should take notes from other MMO's.
@gamefreak215jd: yes!!! My buddy was just saying that the reason he loves console gaming is because it's simple, plug and play action... to which I replied, "yeah maybe 10 years ago!"
Lol, $400 = a new video card for me. I have a ps4 and the only games I'm playing on it are Rainbow Six and FF14, and both are far superior on PC (damn my console friends). This ps4 pro seems like a complete wash to me.
I'm having trouble finding good reasons to stick with consoles. If it weren't for a few of my friends that dont have a PC, it would be PC all the way - Steam, full mouse / KB support, no subscription for online play, easily upgradable.. The list goes on.
The ONLY thing that would keep my ps4 from becoming a complete dust collector in the future, would be KB/M support, just so I could trash fools in r6: siege online. But because you'll never want to hurt your precious controller-wielding players, I know this will never happen. And btw the KB/M support for FF14 is a joke on ps4.
@marcusi23: I just don't want to give in to buying IW just to get CoD4. I would happily give them $40+ for CoD4 on its own. But I'm not going to support IW sales just to get the game I want. I still play MW2 on PC, but I haven't really enjoyed any CoD games since then. And it's not that I'm bad at them either - I've had between a 1.4-2.1 K/D ratio over the series. Not saying that I'm very good, but I just haven't enjoyed the games outside of the modern warfare series. Black Ops, ghosts, and advanced warfare were all fun games but I simply liked MW better.
@WhoIsTheDrizzle: hell, I'd pay $60 for a full rerelease of CoD4 with all of the maps and such. Wish they'd done that instead of packaging it with IW: collectors edition. Guess I'll stick to rainbow six siege and gears this season.
Of course this turned into a M/K vs controller debate.. But really all they needed to do was reduce the range and lock-on speed of the turrets.
There have been times where I would play widow to counter torbs, but due to the placement of the turrets and the size of the map, there was no place that I could stand and snipe the turrets from a safe range, and would get lit up instantly as soon as I poked my head out to take a shot.
So I'd go back behind cover, get a heal from Zenyatta or mercy let's say, and then I'd pop out again to find the the turret back at full health because torb was camping right next to it, repairing it anytime he took a hit.
Now multiply that by two, three or four Torbs at a time, and you've got a far worse problem.
Really the only thing they need to patch is only allowing one of each hero per team. they've done it for competitive. Don't understand why they haven't done it for casual yet.
Oh, boo hoo. Just trade / sell your ps4 (you know a friend that will buy it) when this comes out, save $1 a day until then and buy it. Looking at a $200 difference tops after trade-in / sell. I don't think $200 is much to ask for a nice improvement in performance.
I feel like the more they try to do with each Zelda game, the more it loses its identity and appeal. Think of what are generally considered the best entries in the series - LoZ, LTTP, Link's Awakening, and Ocarina, all of which follow the original formula to some extent. Majora's Mask is up there as well, but for different reasons. After recently playing through wind waker and TP again, I confirmed that most of the content in those games is filler material - traveling, backtracking, boring mini-games, etc. I honestly would prefer a brand new zelda game that took only 20 hours to 100% and have fun with it every single second of the way through, than have another WW or TP that can take 40+ hours to complete, but you're bored out of your skull more than half the time.
Also, what's with the tutorials these days? I just want to hear an old man say "it's dangerous to go alone, take this" and be on my way! TP and SS are the worst offenders of this, and it's very frustrating that Nintendo gives gamers so little credit. I beat LoZ and LTTP when I was 5... I don't need an hour long intro during which I run around the village doing silly errands. Shame on you, Nintendo!
