Honest question, Is Destiny a good game?

Ego, emotion, religion, sexuality, blind-hate aside, is Destiny a good game ? Is it a game that will go down in the history books like GTA, Halo, Dark Souls, Need for Speed, (Some) CoDs, FIFA, and any other popular good game? Personally, I believe it will. I have 1500+ spent on this game alone, the last time I reached even 1000 hours in a game was GTA IV (and that was only because I had Mods lol) but yeah, I loved what Destiny has become and hope for it to prosper in the future.

In D1, what kept me coming back was the way the guns felt, and space magic. THAT was fun. But I'm not sure if that is why it will go down in the history books. I think if it does, it'll be because of all the controversy surrounding it.

    • No, it is terrible. In fact, it is so bad people are still playing it 3 years after it was released. Man it's so bad that Destiny 2 is going to be one of the biggest game releases of the year. And let me tell you, it is so bad, that I think I will put in over 1000 hours into Destiny 2, just like I did in Destiny 1, all just so I can continue to experience how bad Destiny really is.

      • I think Bungie made the biggest possible blunder of all time for hyping a game and releasing it the way they did. It's my honest belief that if they didn't hype this game and published it as a quirky experience that you've just got to try, then they wouldn't have had the flack they got for years on end. If it had released in its current state, with all the patches implemented, it would have been a widely different experience. But to answer the question, yes, it is a good game. I am really looking forward to D2 now, as it seems that they have figured a lot of stuff out and it's all thanks to user feedback. Not everyone is going to get everything they want, but it will be a great game.

        • Is Destiny good? Yes Does it have issues? Yes Can it be better? You bet! Is it so game breaking that I'm not going to have fun? Absolutely not! Its still a lot fun and I believe eventually the game will be improved upon. We'll see after Destiny 2 drops if there Are improvements.

        • It's a good game, but will go down in history for the wrong reasons. It has been a clusterfukk since the beginning, and shows no signs of stopping. But will go down in history regardless.

        • It is a good game. Whether it goes down as one of the GOAT, it's hard to say. But for me personally, it is one of my favorite games and holds a special place. The social aspect is huge. It's like a game of basketball to me. It's not wildly different every time. But something about doing it with friends just doesn't get old. Raiding with my cousins, dad, and uncle is easily one of my fondest gaming experiences of all time.

            Here's a hint, the longer the answer the worse the game is. When you have to justify short comings, define terms, throw in examples, cherry pick fragments that are good, and tie it all together to try and convince someone it's a good game- it's probably not that good.

            • Yes. Lots to hate but more to love. Alot of mistakes on bungies side but it was a great ride. One of a kind kind of ride.

              • I've always described Destiny, to those who haven't played it, as having fantastic gunplay and movement, as well as a fun Crucible. It's extremely lacking in story and endgame content, though. I think it will go down right alongside Black Ops: II. A massive franchise that did really well but could have been so much better than it was.

                • No Destiny is not a good game, it is an excellent game. It's in a different league than all those games you listed, combined. Quite frankly, it is one of the GOATs.

                    • I feel like it will go down in gaming history. Definitely not number one, but it will be remembered.

                        Destiny is a good game, but it will definitely go down in history for the wrong reasons. Being a "good" game is just fine, but I think people were expecting a "great" game. As for Bungie being remembered, their work with Halo will be remembered more fondly than Destiny.

                      • Destiny is one of the best games I have ever played. It has many flaws mainly PVP which has become complete garbage and I worry that with D2 focusing on PVP that the game will be garbage but I don't know we shall see when it is launched. Like I said PVP is complete garbage and bungie instead of telling the whine asses to deal with what they got, they went the route of catering to them and making most guns worthless except palindrome lol. Really it's a good game though, the graphics are amazing and controls are smooth as can be. Its a top 5 game of all time for me.

                        • I believe so too. I've clocked 1400 hours on the game and enjoyed every minute. As I wait for D2 I've realized how good Destiny was. All the other games I'm getting from Gamefly just ain't capturing my interest like Destiny did.

                          • I personally love destiny as a game I just hate how much b.s bungee has done to the game over the past 3 years. I'm looking forward to destiny and hope and pray they learned from their mistakes when dealing with destiny.

                          • Don't think I would of put in hours I have into this game if it wasn't good. Yes it's had/has it flaws, yes bungie can seem like a bunch of dimwits with the decisions they make. Still it's a good game to play and especially to play with others. See ya in destiny 2

                                    Undeniably below average but with a great marketing team behind it and the Bungie name helps even though most of the original talent left.

                                    • No. Objectively, Call of Duty is better and that is a shit game. However, I have gained experiences and friendships that are unforgettable.
