No matter what you say, there’s something about the snappy gunplay and exotic environment, unequalled imo. I’m 48, been gaming since the first Nintendo, and Destiny is by far the game I’ve enjoyed the most overall: meaning actual gameplay combined with relationships I’ve had, played with my son, made great friends. Carried new friends to their first gm, hear them yell YA they are so happy. It gets repetitive, yeah, but even if I stop playing for X amount of time, eventually the itch will come back.
If by snappy gunplay you mean how you easy to aim, this game has two hidden attributes holding player's hands called aim assist and aim correction.
Aim assist moves your aim to enemies for easier aim while aim correction makes slight miss into hits, making you able to hit enemies when it's supposed to be a miss
