Why FarCry 4 is better than Destiny.

This is not a troll or fanboy thread. I am making this thread for those who are getting extremely bored of playing Destiny. Destiny is very repetitive, and if you are tired of playing Destiny like me then you must be looking for a game to replace Destiny. Well my suggestion is FarCry 4. Please keep in mind that i am not a FarCry fanboy, this is my first ever FarCry game that i have played. And to be honest, FarCry 4 makes Destiny look like complete shit. Here are my personal reasons on why i think FarCry 4 is better than Destiny. [b]1.) Campaign[/b] FarCry 4's campaign is AMAZING. FarCry actually has a story unlike Destiny. FarCry 4's campaign is more immersive, alot less repetitive and more fun overall. You can tackle objectives in many different ways which kills any repetitiveness. The story also makes sense. There is a protagonist and antagonist with character development. Destiny on the other hand has no story at all, i don't care what anyone says. The story of Destiny is almost non-existent in game. The story missions are extremely repetitive, it is always the exact same concept. Destiny's campaign is also very non immersive. I can go on and on of how bad Destiny's campaign is, but you have most likely already played it, so i don't need to go in to much detail on how horrible it is. [b]2.)Open world.[/b] FarCry 4's open world is amazing. It really feels like a living breathing world filled with wild life and AI that you can interact with. Not to mention, FarCry 4's open world is bigger than all of Destiny's world maps COMBINED, yes i said COMBINED. There are also alot more things you can do in FarCry 4's open world. Things are always happening in the world even if you are not in the area. It is literally a living breathing world. Destiny feels like a complete ghost town. The only thing you can interact with in Destiny is enemy AI and closed -blam!-ing doors. [b]3.)Map Editor[/b] Map Editor in FarCry 4 is AMAZING. If you are unfamiliar with FarCry's Map Editor, basically it is a mode where you can CREATE your own maps. Yes, you read it right. You can literally create your own living breathing PVE or PVP maps from scratch. This means that players can generate there own content for the game. There is a huge selection of building and AI models that you can do with as you please. You can create your own Outpost that you could defend from enemies or you can make your own challenging outpost that you can try to liberate. There are no limits on what you can do with this Map creator. But Destiny on the other hand.... Yea... no. [b]4.)Really worth the $60[/b] FarCry 4 is really worth the $60 in my opinion, unlike Destiny. Destiny has really lacked in content at launch. It made me realize that Destiny was definitely not worth the $60 in my opinion. Most of Destiny's content that was suppose to be available to us at launch was locked off then it could be sold to us later in DLC (Developer Locked Content). It obviously wasn't Bungie's primary intention to locked the content seeing as some of the locked content were shown in Destiny trailers before launch. I could go into huge detail about that subject but i rather not for the time being. Unlike Destiny, there is always something new to do or play in FarCry 4. including the player generated content that i mentioned earlier. You will never feel a lack of content while playing FarCry 4. [b]5.)FUN![/b] Overall, FarCry fun is VERY fun. It never fills like a grind unlike Destiny. Destiny's end-game is pretty much just RNG and Grinding for gear while repeating the same strikes and story missions every -blam!-ing time! How could you possibly have fun with that? FarCry is just pure fun and never boring. And it's challenging in a fun way. If you have been looking for a game to replace the bullshit that is Destiny, well i suggest FarCry 4. I can guarantee you will have a great time playing it. And i know there are gonna be some Destiny fanboys attacking me in the comment section. My only question to you guys is why do you still play Destiny? Do you find grinding for materials and gear fun?

      • They are two completely different games, can't really compare them. Why worship FC4, basically a copy and paste of FC3?

        Why this post should be on the far cry forums and not destiny... 1.) people tend to play destiny on the destiny forums. 2.) people that play destiny don't appreciate it when you say other game are way better. 3.) far cry 4 is on the same engine as far cry 3 with next gen tweaks and a different map 4.) go to the far cry forums (if there even is one) Edit- after about 5 rude replies I understand that this is a gaming forum but in my defense I am on the companion app and it is TOTALLY different.

        • Agree with all of the points, but the graphical capacity of Far Cry is FAR greater than Destiny's joke graphics.

            • Destiny's raid is great, but not worth $60. I've already spent more than 400 hours just because i'm addicted to it, not because is good. In fact, I think I'm angry for having spent so much in this game that I want to make it worthwhile. It is the opposite of time is money.

            • I explained it to a friend like this; Imagine that you go to a car dealership in search of aa amazing new ride. The salesman offers you a beautiful looking super car at only the cost of a regular sedan. He promises amazing speed, handling, acceleration, and comfort, the works! You are hugely excited and buy the car in the hopes that it'll be everything that you were promised. You open the door and sit in your amazing new "supercar". It's beautiful. The lines are sexy and agressive the interior is all rich leather and heated seats etc... THen you turn the key and it rumbles to life. Or rather, it putters to life sounding like its anemic. You ask the salesman whats wrong with it, it is a brand new car after all. He responds with a smile and says that in order to get the extra horsepower and make use of the whole engine you were promised, all you have to do is dish out a third of the cost all over again. In order to get the handling you were promised, again, dish out more money. You see where this is going? Obviously the rational thing to do is to immediately give the car back and go down the street to the next dealership and buy their car instead, which of course has all the features you were promised from the get go. Destiny is that "Supercar". Through the advertising for it we were promised so much but yet when we bought the game we discover that only some of it is immediately available to us. The rest is set up so that we have to pay again and again if we want to keep playing the game. Thats something I really don't want to do considering that I just forked over $80 bucks to get half the game. Bungie has over promised and under delivered and in my eyes it really doesn't do much to draw me back. In my eyes they are now only interested in getting their hands on as much of my money as possible. Considering that I would gladly hand over more money to them if I had at least been satisfied with the base game enough to want eve n more, I think Bungie has really missed the point altogether in an attempt to get some fast cash.

                  Destiny has the biggest open world of any game ever. Too bad we can't access it due to invisible walls, disc locked DLC and kill boundaries.

                  • Couldn't agree more. I just picked up FarCry 4 yesterday and I can't see myself going back to Destiny. I'm so happy with my purchase. I love it when everybody says that Destiny was released as a platform for future updates and content releases as though thats just what every game should be doing. I don't know about the rest of the people playing Destiny but I sure as hell don't want to pay extra for content that damn well should have been included at launch in an $80 game! Grinding for crafting materials in FarCry is actually fun and can easily lead to exciting side missions or even discovering completely hidden parts of the map that you've not yet seen despite the fact that you've already logged dozens of hours into the game already! That's what I want in a game at launch. Something good enough to make me come back for more right from launch, not something that is only mediocre at launch and promises to give me more if I dish out even more money over the course of a couple years. FarCry really does destroy all the arguments that it would be too hard to have a content filled game on Launch Day. Sure, Destiny has an open world. Yeah its got shit to shoot at. Of course it has lots to do in that open world. The problem is that it's delivery is so ridiculously, boringly pathetic that it ends up growing old before the game even gets under way. The open world has nothing in it and never changes. There is nothing to do besides shoot things that shoot back with the barest semblance of life. All those events and side "quests" are the same basic thing just worded differently. Heres a good test to see if a game has a satisfying amount of content. Play the campaign start to finish. Then go back and do it again. If its a good game then chances are you'll discover new and interesting things that you missed on the second run through. You can probably try to tackle a mission in a different way than the first time. Heck, FarCry 3 even had alternate endings based on the choices you made during the game. And speaking of choice; Mass Effect is a game that had almost too much choice woven throughout it. From how you tackled a mission to who to save, to the outcome of a galaxy wide war! I've played those games again and again and I still enjoy playing them. Destiny, however, has none of these things.

                      • Map creators add so much to games. Why Bungie scrapped Forge & Anvil and HEK for Forge, and later, nothing, I'll never know. It's amazing what the community can do with a game's engine. CMT have done some [b][i][u]amazing[/u][/i][/b] maps done with the Halo 1 engine.
