It seems I'm having a very different experience with the game than most...

I'm a software developer in my 30s. I work all day, come home, hit the gym or go for a bike ride, make dinner, and take care of the dog. After dinner, I boot up the PS4, create a party with 4 to 6 of my friends... work friends, childhood friends, friends I've just met... We hop in a PS4 party, then we all load up the game. We battle through all of the game's missions together. We take on the strikes. We take on the queens wrath missions. We're working on building up our light levels. We do patrols and bounties, and we all enter the Crucible together. I am having an absolute blast playing Destiny with my friends. Maybe the difference is that I have a dedicated set of friends whom I can play the game with that make it so much fun, but reading through this board is very interesting to me. It seems that many of the people writing here are having a very different experience than I am having. Is it simply because I'm playing with my friends that I find what the developers at Bungie have given us so entertaining?

  • Probably, in part. I wouldn't be playing still without friends online. It's a fun game the mechanics are great. My feeling is you probably haven't burned through as much of the game as some, where it's gotten to the point where you know exactly what's coming all the time. Nothing outside the raid and crucible has the least bit of challenge at this point. This is partially that some players have put in too many hours too quickly too. It's a good game, the replay value is limited, and it's almost all replay in PvE after a point. It's when people get to that point that varies. Part of this is the map list is so small as well, it's very noticeable on the strike playlist where the same strike may come up 5-6 times in a row as the RNG only has 6 to choose from. It doesn't matter that you can back out and get a new one, that one's been done more than a few times as well.
