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.

  • Destiny is my all time favorite game! Forget all the negative cry babies that infest our community. Whem the cry babies design a better one instead of complaining, I'll lend them my ear.

        • No, but it sure is an addictive one.

        • 7/10 Good enough to be slightly above average Too many big glaring issues to be great. What's kept this game alive is not the game itself or the developers, but rather the people that play it, if that makes any sense.

          • The things I hate about destiny have nothing to do with the actual game, but the powers that run/ran it. Destiny imo is one of the best games ever. It's the first FPS I actually invested time in. My top 3 Everquest( still going strong after 18 years Final fantasy 7- best of the series Destiny

            • Absolutely. It's the first of its kind on consoles and has tremendous replayability. No different than gta, it was the first of its kind on consoles as well and clearly dominates the game type that it is.

              • No it's not, but the RNG system and the good gameplay make it replayable which is all it is, the same thing over and over then the same thing backwards, followed by lies from bungie

                "Good" is subjective. Some players believe that a good game just provides enough play hours to justify the cost. Some players believe that a good game is something that is well-designed in how it is balanced and maintained. Looking at Destiny 1, it looks like it will be remembered for its flaws as a grindfest that started strong but then was slaughtered with nerfs and bad choices from Bungie. It had some bright spots if you got past all the grinding and other problems, but it will ultimately be remembered for its growing pains.

              • You'll get out of it what you put into it. I've had a ton of fun over the last three years, so yeah, I'd say it's a pretty good game.

              • Time spent ≠ good game. I could spend hours on a casino slot machine, and those aren't quality games. Destiny is designed to addict you, it is a glorified slot machine

              • The simple answer is yes - it is a good game! The more pointed question is how much better it could have been.... One of my favorite commentaries is by BatmanDobbins on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ5BpeHVTWY for myself, I pretty much agree with him. I have put way too many hours in Destiny, and continue to do so. But they shredded so much intriguing content, that I am a bit saddened. And with D2, they are abandoning soooooo many potential storylines. They say the Stranger is done... WHY? She apparently has a lot to say, and could have been developed much, much more. My bet is that the community may agree with that. The awoken.... Sure - it looks like they had their asses handed to them, but there seems to be some wiggle room with the fate of the queen.... consciousness transference maybe... Hey she appeared to have SOME sort of mental abilities.... Too much PVP balancing is another thing, BTW.... I'm sure everyone has their own personal regrets at what they did - or didn't elect to do - with the game and story. I still play it - but mostly for the social aspect of playing with faithful friends... D2 abandons pretty much the whole idea Destiny was built on... the Guardians and the light.... I am a bit saddened by the story.

                • No. Destiny will not go down in history. Bungie will go down in history for releasing weak content at a premium price.

                  • I believe it is a good game. But it was turned into garbage over the years after each attempt to fix what wasnt broken. I dont think it will go down in history tho. Nothing is really special about destiny its just fun.

                  • HONEST ANSWER: It was phenomenal up til TTK then bungie put a sandbox team in charge of nerfs and buffs who admittedly never played crucible and boom it was ruined. So yes Destiny is a good game BUNGIE IS -blam!-ING HORRIBLE THOUGH. They lack leadership, vision and ingenuity the problems we see coming with d2 are things they should know how to fix already.

                    • At times, it was the most played game in the world. It created a new genre. It has an active and passionate community 3 years on. YES, it's unquestionable a great game.

                        It's a good but very flawed game I don't think it can be considered with those other titles right now. Outside of the destiny community the opinion of the game is very poor Also, destiny played heavily on people's addictions and obsessions, so some of the community are just addicts that continue to play even though they don't actually enjoy the experience
