More gameplay, more confirmation it's pretty much Borderlands without the humor. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing I guess, but it doesn't look like anything particularly new or fresh.
Coming into this thread blind... I haven't followed Destiny at all. But, it definitely looks like a game with guns. I mean, what else can you say? I've played this, as have you. as have most of us.. As far as the boost from last gen open world, to this, considering infamous, its underwhelming visually. And I think we are going to get a good picture of the difference in PS4 titles, and multiplatforms from Destiny.
The scale argument, thank god, is dead with Infamous. That excuse is over, and really GTA5 was the precursor. You can have scale, and have some pretty buttery visuals/processing/particles/etc. This doesn't look much more interesting than what we've seen of games in the past decade.
I am really not impressed by anything in this trailer. Esp for a PS4/PC title.
Why does everything need to be new or fresh, what's wrong with a game just being "ripe"?
Because you're asking someone to buy it. That is why things are new, and fresh. Moderation is fine. No, everything literally does not need to be new, or fresh. A game being ripe, is fine as well. But none of that is what I'm seeing in destiny. I see more of the same gameplay in a 7 minute video. The dynamics, the animations, the pacing, its all the same old shit.
Destiny seems to have a lot of hype, and even on the outside of the hype bubble, it just looks like a sci-fi shooter that wouldn't even be a thing if it wasn't for the pedigree of the developer.
Sort of reminds me of insomiac with Resistance 2/3(whiehver one they lost their minds with on scale) The problem is that the gameplay is monotonous. Newer and fresh gameplay experiences can be expected with new hardware and walls being broken that were in the way before.
Its an excuse to keep the current state of bullshit gaming going. Just texture map updates for the same gameplay and $400 dollars to buy the system. meh.
