Ok, I've tried to kid myself but I've got to be honest now... I'm not happy

After playing the beta, I was very impressed and was very swepped up In the hype. So much so I pre-ordered the overpriced Ghost edition (i've never bought a special edition anything before) started playing the game and after a few hours of trying out the multiplayer, story etc I began to get a feeling at the pit of my stomach, the game felt empty and repetitive, the missions played on random parts of the map which had no real coherent storyline began this feeling and then it continued. I was bemused because the story had no story, it was go here, kill bad guys, have your ghost hack something, rinse and repeat. Your character has no real personality, the only person that has got more than a few lines of dialogue is the ghost. There are very few cut-scenes to explain what is going on or to give some depth to this story, there is no explanation of what the darkness is or why it has wiped everything out, or why the traveller came in the first place or what did it do to wipe everything out, it's very very vague. Furthermore where did the cabal, vex, hive, fallen come from? why are they fighting each other and what are they trying to achieve? Then there's the planets or I should say 4 relatively small maps that don't have many interactive features, this is meant to be a science-fiction epic?? In truth i've never felt so disappointed after playing a game before. It was like bungie have said 'Lets take everything we've learned from the Halo series.. (Deep and immersive story with varied and interesting characters with good chemistry and good humour, varied missions with an actual point) and let's not build on that.. let's take a step back and make it is bland and shallow as possible' I see how they've tried to make a jack of all trades game but it in doing this i don't think anyone can make they're mind up at what it is, something has been lost. I think the only real reason i'm replaying the same boring missions is improve my armour and weapons, something that I did on boarderlands... at least that had a sense of humour. Whats worse is I spent £150 on the ghost edition, I never bought a special edition anything before, i definitely wont be doing again.

  • Everyone is comparing it to a book and that this is chapter one. Lets compare it to a house instead, when I bought my house I wanted an unfinished basement because I wanted to work on that and finish it myself. BUT. I live in Canada and it gets really effing cold here in the winter so I still need to buy a house that has at least one floor finished so I don't freeze to death in the winter. Destiny and its story feel so incomplete it would be like buying a "house" when all you were really getting was a bare lot with a few survey stakes in the ground. The potential is still there for an amazing mansion to be built...but right now I'm still pissed about buying that bare lot.
