  • Yes, and every time I play another MMO I'm reminded that destiny is definitely [b]not[/b] a MMO.

  • Destiny has all the aspects of an MMO; gear grinding, currency grinding, online multiplayer. Just because the open world isn't full people dismiss it.

  • True, it does have some MMO aspects, even if they are poorly implemented. Yet, in my opinion it's missing the biggest parts that make an MMO an MMO. For example... -Tons of end game content. -Hundreds of other players on screen at any given time. -Almost infinite options available for diverse character builds. -A coherent story. -They make gear irrelevant after years, not every few months. -LFG systems built into the game. -Player trading/player auction houses/player influenced economies. There's more, but I'm tired of typing for the moment.

  • WoW is currently the biggest MMO. It has 1 relevant raid, you'll only see 100 people in a capital, there was no LFG for a long time, the character customization isn't great, and they release 1 expansion a year, making the old gear irrelevant. And the story sucks recently. Destiny isn't that far off.

  • Destiny is a shared world shooter with some rpg lite elements and a messed up loot system. It's definitely missing the first M from MMO.
