So, I have a question for the people that are playing the beta and have played Destiny, are any of you guys getting any Destiny vibes from the beta? And what I mean is, does it feel like you're seeing a good chunk of the game already? I remember playing the Destiny beta and thought it was neat (like Jeff did) but then the full game came out and it was pretty much the beta with more planets to go to. I'm worried that if I do end up getting it -probably going to get it on PC if I do- that it won't have much content except for constantly doing whatever their version of strikes are and the Dark zone thingy.
This has kind of been my thought the entire time I've been playing it, haha. I really hope I'm wrong! I really hope there's plenty of stuff to do, especially in the Dark Zone. The DZ is a cool-ass concept -- it's the Destiny "dudes just wander into your game" multiplayer, but then at the drop of a hat, they can become Dark Souls invaders that want to kill you, as if you were in a Kane & Lynch multiplayer game. Awesome! ...But there isn't much to do in the DZ when you're not having the occasional awesome PvP shootout. 90% of my time has been just wandering the streets, finding an item to loot or some NPCs to shoot every 8 minutes or so (I think)? It's been mostly boring as shit, punctuated with moments of awesome fun fighting hostile players at the loot dropoff zones.
I LOVE the cover-to-cover movement, though! Holy shit! It doesn't feel 100% perfect -- but then again, I'm playing at a pretty variable framerate on my laptop at the moment. But man! It's like you're playing Gears of War, but then you can optionally play Hybrid instead, if you want!
I'm hoping it turns out as great of an overall game as it has the potential to. If it doesn't -- I wonder if I can get a refund on Steam, since these hours have been going into the separate beta client, and not the actual game? :v
