Reviews are grim. Could be years before another FPS gets a 90+, with Titanfall failing to live up to the promise too.

75/100 on Metacritic, not too bad.

I can see why it's getting some negative reviews though, at the start it is pretty forgettable, once I reached the moon I thought it was great though, the missions get a lot better.

Definitely not worthy of the 6 gamespot gave it (not that I give a sh*t what they think anyway).

I'm sitting on about 7.5 to 8 in my personal opinion which seems to sit about right with Metacritic that Locke has posted above.

6 to me implies the game is almost unplayable and flawed in most areas which I don't think it is. Sure, it has glaring issues and a lot of things are pointless but it just seems like all the hype and promotion has caused a bit of this backlash effect it's getting at the moment.

My biggest complaint funnily enough is the customisation. To me it's like I only change clothing and armour items based on the defence boosts and effects they have so that idea of having my own unique warlock with his own colour scheme and gear is taken right out of my hands.

Reached Level 20 and completed story mode. A couple of new features now that I'm level 20 though so there is still some stuff to do.

Kinda thinking about getting the game for PS4 before the Taken King comes out.

Is the game worth it?

Hard to say, a lot of people find it lacking, the story is filled with nonsensical terminology too, making it impossible to understand what the hell is going on.

You can now pay Ł25 to not play Destiny

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/20...acks-priced-25

I don't even object to the level boost itself, not that I understand why anyone would want to pay for it, but that price point is shocking. Especially when it only takes you to lv25 which - assuming nothing has changed since I played this months ago - is totally useless and can be achieved in like 10 hours of gameplay through playing the "story" (I use that word loosely!!) and a bit of pvp. You might as well throw your money in the bin.

I can understand why World of Warcraft did their level boost, it means fans can skip 9 year old content, which by this point is quite dated. But Destiny is new...

Reaching level 25 takes no time at all, Bungie and Activision have no shame anymore they're openly robbing people blind with this. They must be laughing their way to the bank.

Which means Taken King is now only 25 bucks, When I started playing it eariler in the year, there was a consumable available that let me go straight to level 25.

The game itself isn't that bad IMO but I can't find anybody to play it with.

Meh. I don't think it's a big deal. The Taken King story content is so much better than the original content that I could totally understand someone wanting to skip all of that with their second or third character.

They're not "robbing" anybody at all, it's simply there as an option and very easy to ignore.

Has anyone else tried Sparrow racing yet? I like it, controls are easy to handle.

Its pretty much made all vanilla Destiny content irrelevant, there is no reason for anyone to go back to it, which means new players have to skip to Taken King.

So, I reached The Taken King, and finished Vanilla Destiny... the jump in quality with The Taken King is amazing.
