So Is Destiny A bit of good?6235360

Destiny doesn't have doubt been among this years most talked about games. For months rumors happen to be circulating around the web, magazines, social networking systems in regards to the game, asking questions varying from what it will look like, seem like and seem like. Well, by last Tuesday we could finally answer those questions.

Destiny, a game released by Bungie - legendary game developers behind mega-hits Halo and Call of Duty - can be a mamoth MMO/FSI title set in our solar system. The framework of the story is always that, in the distant future, humanity entered a golden age and so attianed the technology and also the ability to travel round the solar system. With all the desire to travel however, also came the desire to obtain knowledge and secrets, thus unlocking hidden dark truths behind our solar system. The end result was utter destruction, leaving humanity in tatters as various varieties of alien lifeforms invaded the planet, leaving us with one pitifully small city to use like a HQ to take back our lost empire - kind of the crux of the game.

So my point is, is it any good?

Everything you usually expect from such highly-anticipated game titles is beautiful, crisp graphics with ridiculously meticulous awareness of detail and Destiny achieves this spectacularly. Every conceivable object looks incredible, varying from your way grass and bushes sway in the wind, to the way your characters hands crease and fold just as if they were real hands. There are no doubts the game looks spectacular - congratulations Bungie on that front.

However, while you play from the single-player - a location that most FSI titles often ignore nowadays, instead emphasizing multi-player - things start to get a little dull. You start to no longer take notice of the beautiful graphics and instead start to groan at the repetitive gameplay of descending from the spaceship about the moon, shooting your way through waves of weak enemies without dying, obtaining an artifact from your cavern while emptying clip after clip of ammunition at a bullet-sponge 'boss' enemy, before completing the mission and then repeat the identical steps in these one.

The single-player mode is certainly not other than boring. It offers almost nothing original, unlike Halo and Cod, and leaves us asking just what did the developers spend their $300 million budget on?

However, the joy of the game is available in its multi-player mode - the hugely rewarding Crucible. Destiny could very well be the largest multi-player game ever created; in reality, you can't even take part in the game without being connecting to the web (a bummer without having it), meaning you're constantly connected to other gamers. In the Crucible, you'll find very familiar gme modes - team deathmatch, checkpoint control and capture the flag - but everything runs so smoothly with highly entertaining gameplay throughout.

Where Destiny excels best though is via its levelling up, 'loot 'n' shoot', Borderlands style gameplay. There's nothing more exciting amongst people than upgrading your weapon and armour and actually noticing that you've become just about invincible to your enemies (online in addition to offline).

Overall, destiny 2 inventory is definitely a good game that's certainly definitely worth the money, nonetheless it just feels a bit disappointing because there is very little there that seems original. We have seen it all before, and that's perhaps whyit was not getting the rave reviews that people were expecting.
