I got into Destiny entirely by accident. Being Canadian, I went into Walmart to pick up my copy of NHL 15 to feed my hockey obsession. Walking through the department store, I recalled my friend telling me how much fun he'd been having playing Destiny and how much he thought I'd enjoy it. With curiosity and cash to burn, I picked up both games. Needless to say, I've played NHL 15 three times since purchasing it.
I didn't play the Destiny beta, so I went into this game completely blind. I've also never played a FPS online before, and for weeks I was scared to play the Crucible and interact with people online (I'm still not fantastic at PVP but damn, it sure is fun!) I sat in the menu screen, looked at the 3 classes available and immediately picked the Hunter. The cloak was just too badass for me - plus, throwing knives?! I was in!
I worked hard and pushed my Hunter to level 20 and beyond. I tried the Raid at level 26 with him and failed. I tried PVP with him and failed. I just couldn't get a hang of the play style it required and I felt discouraged. I decided to try a different class in the hopes to find something I'd be more comfortable playing as. And thus, my first Titan was created.
From the minute I upgraded lift and Ward of Dawn (I started off as a Defender as I enjoy playing support) I felt much more at home with the Titan class. Tanky, bulkier, slower. To me, it felt so right. I upgraded both subclasses completely and use them both equally depending on my teammates needs. I found myself dying less, helping more, and even improving in PVP which was something I thought I'd never do. Recently, I've started a Warlock just to get a feel of that, but again, I feel most comfortable with my Titan(s). I feel like Bungie succeeded in making classes that feel extremely different and unique to play, and believe there really is a class for everyone. If one doesn't suit you, you can try another until you find where you feel most comfortable.
So my questions to you are: Did you start with the class you currently play? Which class is your favourite? Your least favourite? Which class makes you feel most comfortable?
Thanks for reading and see you star side!

Started with a warlock. Have 3 30 warlocks. Just deleted one last night to make a titan. Wish I had made titan from the start. Look cool, fun to play, man mode
