Destiny Reveal Thread
- Thread starter Tashi
- Start date
A 2 minute action trailer would have worked, or anything longer than 4 seconds of a chracter walking with his gun out then 3 minutes of Bungie jerking themselves off.
Graphics and art direction look great for current gen. Lore and universe looks a bit more interesting than Halo's but hard to say for sure.
The hype killer is the online DRM. Will not be getting this for that reason unless it's godlike. I am sure the press will be all over this like white on rice.

I hope it's not cross-gen-compatible.

haha these vidocs always sound so pretentious.
I agree.....slow moving trailer reveal with barely any gameplay? Come on Bungie....Graphics underwhelming as well.

Definitely current gen, looks a little worse than Halo 4 visually. Not surprising, Bungie had nice skyboxes in Reach but that's about it, they don't do visuals well most of the time.

So the in-game footage was fake?
yeah. i'm sure Bungie will carve out a nice little corner of the market for this game, but it's not something that does anything for me
I mean I don't get why you people are saying it's "ugly." Of course it's not going to look like Uncharted 4 if it's a large-scale FPS based on having many people playing at once. Not to mention if it looks like it does in the trailer, it almost certainly will run very smoothly on the Nextbox and PS4. Maybe 60 FPS and some nice bells and whistles.
I'm sure once the 360 and PS3 are gone, Bungie won't be handcuffed to those consoles and the next game will look "good enough." Like I said though I'm really excited with what we got. A more open Borderlands sounds amazing to me.

yea that made me cringe.. ugh. have some humility please. i as a gamer don't even know ANYONE who plays Halo, doesn't seem to be that big to me. might be because i'm Euro though.
game seems to be ambitious, and i think the premise is cool. the characters and enemies seem a bit lame though.. but we'll see. if there's tons of amazing environments, great online play, great music, good AI etc, i'll definitely check it out.
If they cover every platform around, you wonder why Nintendo didn't put in effort to get it on their platform too. Oh well.

These textures looks horrible, PS2/Wii level. What a underwhelming reveal.
Halo 4 looks way better, Destiny is not even close. I don't care if ít is a open world game, this is shocking.

I thought there would at least be some offline single-player component though.

It wouldn't surprise me. Expecting charts on charts on charts with maybe one game trailer.

No release date. No mention of next gen consoles. Game looks like Halo from the footage.
Was their goal to make the Sony reveal on Wednesday appear all the more great? This was for me about as underwhelming as it can get.

It was never confirmed, mostly hinted at.
At worst I was hoping for something like Dark Souls/Demons souls where online gives you more/different features but the game is still amazing and completely playable offline as a SP game.
Permanent online is simply deal breaker to me. I like Co op/multi but I am a solo first guy. I am sure others will be on board but I am probably gonna pass on it.

We've been thinking about it for a long time. Now we want to see it.
I think it looked okay but falled short of the concept art. There's so little we know about the game and the social part they liked to talk about does nothing to me. The game also looked like it was scaled for more powerful (=next-gen) systems. I would like to see the game running on them.

Pretty underwhelmed. The actual first person shots (there were only 2?) looked pretty mediocre. I really hope that there is a next-gen version released simultaneously and it looks much, much better.
Also, I still have no idea what the game will play like other than that it is a sc-fi FPS with some new social features that aren't explained.
I didn't think it looked much like Halo other than it being a sc-fi fps. Looks like it might have ADS which would immediately make it a lot different from Halo.

Yeah, that is all I really wanted to know. Will play it on PS3 (or PS4, if it's there) since I don't have to buy Gold in order to be able to play it.
