[quote]I'm just curious as to why you think so. I personally don't care about story. I'm more about gameplay and A.I. (Artificial Intellegence) {how smart the computer enemies adapt and counter you} I lost a lot of good friends to borderlands and they tell me it's better.[/quote] Borderlands is a heap of comical crazy fun if you have a couple of buddies to run around wit. Borderlands is about finding the next good weapon/gear drop where as Destiny is about farming for materials to buy and upgrade your weapon/gear. Borderlands is an RPG at heart with FPS mechanics added in and Destiny has the soul of a solid FPS with MMO features sprinkled in. Borderlands is chalk full of memorable characters that offer up witty dialog and/or exposition. Destiny is chalk full of cool, slick alien species to annihilate without so much as a second thought as to who or why. It's all a matter of opinion.... I got a buddy who down right loaths FPS's, still calls 'em corridor shooters. But he was completely taken in by Borderland's humor, loot and rpg elements. It is the only FPS he has ever beaten. FYI he played and completely passed on Destiny.
