Listen, I love Halo. Master Chief is probably my favorite video game character. I love Halo's story. But it really annoys me when people compare Destiny to Halo. Yes, Destiny is a futuristic FPS, but destiny is an open world online game. My friends still say it'll be just like halo, but personally I think it will be a futuristic open world, MMO type game. I have faith Destiny will be a new, original, fun experience, with nostalgia as well. Destiny will be a new and innovative game but with a somewhat familiar feel. Tell me in the comments if you've had similar experiences with friends saying Destiny is like Halo, or if you disagree with me. Thanks Guardians!

Destiny is it's own game. I don't really think it can be compared to anything else. It's just Destiny
-
I'd say if I had to compare it with another game it would be borderlands. I think that destiny just feels like DESTINY nothing else
-
I feel you bro I hate I when people compare it to cod or halo or border lands it's just plain stupid
-
It feels like Titanfall in my opinion.
-
It's not going to be EXACTLY like Halo, but there will be similarities.
-
How you described playing it is exactly how the beta feels
-
I totally agree with you.

It's annoying when they do that to any game. Just appreciate a game individually. It should go without saying that every other artist copies other artists. With that said, its not shocking that the company that made Halo would carry some things over to Destiny and improve upon that experience. Folks who say that are selling themselves and the game, short.

2 RepliesEdited by KINGOFTHEJUICE-: 7/8/2014 7:35:49 AMI played all halo games last gen while primarily gaming on 360. Halo is still one of my favorite series of all. I played the ps4 alpha, I'll give my 2 cent. Halo 4 was missing something from the gameplay, story, environments and execution. It wasn't bad but it wasn't bungie. That said it still had those core building blocks that bungie built, literally. To put it very simply, destiny took everything that made halo great and added 1000x more to it. Story, gameplay, environments and no doubt countless things that still await. The safest comparison would be to say halo was a demo and destiny is the full trilogy. Is it like halo? Well, yes but it's more accurate to say it's like bungie. The things that are similar are elements that work. Natural progressions in what bungie has been building for decades. Call halo the black of outer space with destiny being everything in it making up our universe.

Wow, that is so true....

Hello gamers of the world I would just like say to all the kids out there that say that its like halo I have some news: I have played the Destiny Alpha and only the driving really reminded me about halo series and and its by the wonderful team that created Halo also the $500 Million budget is being spread across the 10 year franshise.

1 ReplyIt will be original, fun, and new. But I don't think it's going to be able to escape that Halo feel. It's probly NOTHING like halo, but I bet the crucible plays like Halo a little bit at least.

4 RepliesIt's more annoying when people come on this forum and stress me out claiming Destiny is going to be a flop that sucks.
-
This is nothing like halo there is more stuff to do in destiny
-
If its not broken don't fix it just polish it up nice and shiny and add some awesomeness to it. I just hope its not another defiance yeeeshhhh. Good idea on paper just poor execution. But from my experience with bungies Halo games i doubt that will happen. cant wait for 9.9.14

The thing that pisses me off the most is how people compare this to halo then end up hating the game.. Then go pre order mcc .. I'm like wtf?
-
I've heard quite a few people compare Destiny to Halo, but what I and a couple friends have said, (like many others in this forum), is that Destiny is made by Bungie so it will have a sense of familiarity to it. The controls may feel the same, hell, even the movement may feel the same, but that doesn't mean its going to be exactly like Halo.
-
Played my fair share of Halo with my mates before, and from all of MoreConsole's videos I've seen, I can say with all certainty that it is NOT anything like Halo. Maybe a bit of resemblance in the PvP styles...

4 RepliesOne of my friends says its going to be halo combined with borderlands. But I would say otherwise.

1 ReplyEdited by salvucci91: 7/9/2014 2:26:21 PMYeah, I usually hear people say stuff like "yeah, but the movements and gun motions, and reload animations; they look a lot like Halo." And maybe that's just kind of Bungie's style and touch shining through? But that's such a shallow way of looking at it to me. Destiny's universe (of it that we know so far), and concept as a whole is incredible. The single player aspect so thoroughly infused with the co-op aspect is incredible.

U hear this too and I see it's different
-
I see people compare it to Borderlands and Halo a lot. I try to comment to tell them that it is sooooo much more, but they won't listen :c All my friends know how awesome Destiny is, I have been spamming MoreConsoles videos down there throats for a long time.

Played the alpha and it has a somewhat familiar feel, but it is completely different
