Far too much focus on PVP, we are here for PVE
The reason me and my clan play destiny is for the PVE, the PVE with friends in destiny is the best PVE experience around, but it seems with the press around D2 and especially now the beta that the balance and focus has very much shifted toward PVP, and has certainly taken away from the fun in PVE.
The enemies are bullet sponges, the super recharge is an actual joke, ability recharge isn't much better, power weapons are USELESS, and movement speed and jumping control seems way way slower than D1.
I appreciate this is a beta and things may change but it certainly seems as though the balance and focus is toward PVP in a big way, and there is nothing to show or suggest about loot drops/engrams (which be honest is why we keep coming back and back, like a borderline crack addition) that looks like any improvement on D1 if anything its worse.
Amazing representation of graphics and base gameplay, terrible representation of the game's direction and content.

1 ReplyI posted this elsewhere but whatever, because I'll say it as many times as it needs to be said. This pvp oriented beta has been thoroughly disappointing. So much hype for nearly nothing. Goddamit Bungie, yes, once upon a time, you made this competitive multiplayer game that made you something. You let go of that something to make something else. But time and time again you insist on making this new thing Halo when it can't and shouldn't ever be Halo. It's a LOOTER SHOOTER. But the loot and the power it should give you is made irrelevant time and time again because the balance of competitive pvp you want to shove down other people's throats is MORE IMPORTANT. To quote this other space-magic warlock fella, THAT IS WHY YOU FAIL. And you'll keep on failing if you insist on making Destiny your new version of Halo. PVP is fun, yes. But it should not dictate overall enjoyment of the game.
