Destiny changed how i see game reviews

i just wanted to say that because of destiny i am officially ignoring game reviews from now on. Yes many of the bad things pointed out by reviewers and players alike are very true(story,repetitive,voice acting,etc). But for me none of those things take away from the fact that attempting alien genocide with a handful of buddies is just so blamin fun! I love the cycle of kill,loot,back to town,reapeat. Iv never played a dungeon crawler(yep,thats what im calling it) that was such a joy gameplay wise(looking at u diablo 3!). So b4 i just keep rambling about why im so hooked on this game,ill just say that iv concluded that formerly trusted review houses dont have my interests and game sensibilities in mind when writing their reviews. Iv never held reviews as the primary factor when deciding to buy a game,but it was a consideration. But now after seeing the almost fervently angry reviews(gamespot,polygon,and escapist in particular) these people clearly are not in line with my interest and their opinions will get 0 consideration in my decision making process in the future.

  • When it comes to Destiny, I think the game is suffering from overhype more than anything. People are complaining that it is like an MMO but not as big, or like a FPS but not a good of a story. That is a glass half empty look. It is like an MMO, but better story and gameplay. It is like an FPS, but much larger and with more to do. The most important thing about Destiny is whether it is fun. Destiny has that going for it in spades.
