Yes, The Division. Now, while this game could still use a few things (Like a Clan System...), it seriously details the kind of experience we all were hoping for with your game. And while I'm in no way a fan of Ubisoft? I must still give them props for what they have managed to accomplish with it. (I get the feeling they're gonna do like they did with Assassin's Creed with those damn micro-transactions, but that's a whole other kettle of fish) [b]1: An "ACTUAL" Open World experience.[/b] The locations in Destiny are crazy small, guys. That includes the Dreadnought, I mean they all give this illusion of great size but seriously? Not much to them. I mean look at how friggen huge that map is for crying out loud. And that's not even the entire city, dude. There is plenty of potential for them to expand and open things up later on. (If they want to. If the game turns out to go over well enough with the community odds are they may just look to put out a legit expansion) [b]2: ENCOURAGED EXPLORATION.[/b] The game naturally draws your attention and constantly has you thinking "I wonder what is over there?" Your curiosity is often times rewarded and presents its own individual experience for you. [b]3: Open World PvP done right.[/b] I mean fact is, Destiny has zero PvP. It really doesn't. The Crucible is your typical FPS Multiplayer experience that is just a literal carbon copy of previous Bungie games with less innovation. I mean you guys really made your mark with your vehicle gameplay in Halo but then Destiny comes along and nothing? Really? Come on man... Meanwhile, this whole "Dark Zone" thing in The Division is amazing. It is a breath of fresh air for the genre and allows for all manner of scenarios and strategic combat, offering REAL challenge. [b]4: HOLY CRAP A STORY!!![/b] Yeah, no joke. Unlike Destiny, we're seeing even from this short video that there is far more meat to the game's plot than Destiny, even The Taken King. (Which TTK didn't actually do much for this anyway, outside of creating more plot holes for the game =P ) I'm not left wondering "why am I here?" or "why in the hell am I doing all of this in the first place?" You know, can we all get some damn motivation? I expected to get MORE for the why and the how with everything, but my Guardian never got that. And yet, The Division is offered THREE different storylines that you can apparently play through? That sounds surprisingly what Joseph Staten wanted to do with Destiny. Hmm... Me thinks you should have listened to him more. =P [b]5: Dynamic, Interactive World.[/b] The Division gives Day/Night cycles and weather. Locations are rife with tactical factors to play upon, like fuel on the ground that you can ignite to just waste any enemies. The enemies themselves are not predictable, unlike the mobs in Destiny. You could pass through an area twice and encounter different hostiles, some of which will present unique situations such as holding an innocent civilian as a hostage. Not to mention the presence of friendly NPCs in the world that you can kill or help, etc. All of these things establish a breathing, living Open World. [b]6: A Crafting System.[/b] Need I say more? [b]7: Weapon Mods.[/b] Again, do I really need to say anything else here? [b]8: Meaningful Class Variation.[/b] Honestly, if you exclude the Super and Melee Ability, there really isn't much diversity for the Warlock, Hunter and Titan in Destiny. These classes seriously don't play all that different from one another. They all end up blending, you always play the same like anyone else. The Division actually offers real variation, though. You wanna play a Tank? You get a damn shield. A SHIELD. (Something I've been wanting to see in Destiny for a year now) There's just more character here. Its core elements that your game is missing, Bungie. All they need for that game is a dedicated Clan System and they'll be sitting pretty. You could have done so much more with Destiny. Do you see why its so depressing for us to see what the game has turned into? There's a difference between a "Good Grind" and a "Bad Grind." A Good Grind is one where you don't feel as if you're grinding. But that isn't Destiny, though. Its torture. And its ultimately made pointless because you insist on following your planned obsolescence model of rendering previous content inferior or worthless. We invest hours upon hours of our lives into hunting down various weapons and armor, most of which held hostage by your crippling RNG, only to get slapped in the face by you. How is that fun? How is that a rewarding experience? The Division is a testament to what your game COULD have been... [b]EDIT: I seldom edit my own posts, but I feel the need to clarify for those commenting. (I thought I was clear enough the first time but I guess not) Its not a matter of whether or not you should play The Division, the point being made is that the game has all the things that Destiny lacks, things that it desperately needs/has needed since the very beginning. The Division has those gameplay elements and we can now see them in actual practice. The context of their game really doesn't matter in this regard. Destiny has always had the potential to have all of these things that I listed, as well as the ability to go much further than that because of its setting. But it just never did and the studio has been serving to further hinder and hold the game back from realizing said potential. Despite its context and "realistic" setting, the fact remains that The Division is similar in concept to Destiny and acts as direct competition, a much needed rival that can take Bungie to task and show them and Activision how to actually make a game like this.[/b]
