Destiny has more content than all street fighter games combined. WoW starting zone probably have more content than most FPS games.

Pre order figures make the game better?

Beyond grinding rep (faction, crucible, vanguard) it is luck based. The fact that engrams are randomly assigned a tier based on percentage values is....luck.
but the joke doesn't get funny until the tenth time!
ychan, i love you, but it's safe to say you know a thing or two about dumping hours into milquetost games.
Or over 13 work days. Yeah, two and a half weeks of paid work.

Good Lord, destiny gear is ugly
WoW also costs an additional £9 a month on top of the game cost. Not really comparable.

Destiny threads are so fucking toxic around here. And most of you are making a fool of yourself for commenting on the webgl version of his armor.
Wow has been going on for how long now? Ten years. The games also do not compare, at all.

You can deck yourself out in full legendary without hoping for lucky drops. You stated in your post. Rep grinding.
And now, the Queen's Bounty event means you can get full Legendary even easier than that. There is ZERO need to rely on luck to get legendary gear in Destiny. You've done your research as you know you can use faction marks to buy it. So don't claim otherwise.

The ultimate irony of Destiny.For such a high level character, he looks pretty boring and not all that different from how you look at the lower levels. I guess I just expected a bit more... awesomeness.

I dont even want to consider how much time my brother spent becoming High Warlord or whatever in pvp to get the epic gear ( that was then quickly replaced maybe a month later ).
He woke up and played WOW, had me play for him when he couldn't if I could. Was probably 10 hours a day for atleast a month or more. Was nuts. Seeing that I knew I would never touch another MMO ever again except UO.

I doubt it would help. People love to hate on Destiny at this point.
Obviously you do not have to look far if you want an example of what in-game gear/player models look like.

Perhaps, but when we're told that this guy has amazing stuff and there's a link right to his profile, to be presented with that is a bit crap.
Heck, they could drop the 3D model if they can't render their own stuff and just do what FFXIV does and display a static image.
Dude just stop your defendig and fanboyism, sone dislike the game and so far everything you quoted was based on truth or an own opinion.

this picture basically summarizes destiny
There are plenty of people running around with the raid shader on and there is nothing impressive about it in-game, it actually looks really cheap. On titans especially you have to take a pretty close look to even tell it apart from the Beowulf shader.
If they could talk to him, people wouldn't be stopping to ask where he got this awesome gear, they'd be asking why does he look like a hobo at 30.
in your sub-class upgrade screen, there is a bar for agility.

Just so you know, guys, the textures are missing from the Destiny website. I looked at my own character on there and thought there was some weird glitch, but that's just how it is. It will look way different in-game.

To be fair, he's also using the raid rewarded chatterwhite shader, which will make everything look white.

I was trying to point out how silly the WoW vs Destiny comparison was. WoW has to be content rich. It's a PC MMORPG with a sub, and it's very popular and old. It's almost like comparing a console version of Skyrim to the PC version that's fully modded.
Destiny is a MP FPS with loot and PVE features. It's not a full MMORPG, it just have a few zones where people can gather and see other random players, much like GTA5 with it's 16 or so player cap per lobby. From what I read it seems like Sunset Overdrive will have a similar setup with updates to content and settings.

Dude I heard after level 30 it's an entirely different game, I heard there's a new cave that's twice as big.

I really enjoy reading all your drive by posts in every Destiny thread. The game clearly takes up a lot of real estate in your head.
When I dabbled in WoW many years ago.. The Barrens was just lols and Chuck Noris jokes.

How does that armor look like in-game?
Not if you have friends or people to play with...
That is over 7hr 30 min everyday for 14 days straight. These are job type hours here.
Even when I was a teenager on summer vacation with no responsibilities did I ever come close to this.
...but everyone is different so be it.
It's a bit whiter.

It's not though. If you get marks and level up faction reputation you can buy all the legendaries you want. I have FWC, Vanguard, and almost Crucible at level 2 and I don't even play that much. Legendary weapons are a big trickier but it's just more grind, not luck based. The only things that are TRULY random are Exotics, and you can still buy them from Xur on the weekends if you managed to scrape enough strange coins together. If your intention is to rely only on random drops, yeah, you are gonna have a bad time. But you don't have to!

After 107 hours his gear looks the same as 10 hours in, only white. No glow, no effects nothing to make him stand out as the highest level player in the world (of Destiny).

But all my friends hate me now cause I made fun of them buying Destiny.
Did you yourself go out and buy the game?
Atleast, you're on the road to recovery... Step 1, complete.
