*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

How much of the game can I play without PS Plus? At the moment it seems like I'm just progessing through a normal story mode, would there be others with me if I was online?

edit: I just did a few missions and now I'm in some city with other players. Why do I need PS Plus?

Meh. I'm only level 4 (several hours play) but this is pretty boring so far. Go to map, select mission, go to objective, kill something, back to map.

Looks fantastic, plays great, but there nothing too it. No engaging storyline, no decent characters to interact with.

Tell me it gets better..!
 
Got the chance to play this for a few hours and it's okay but it didn't grab me as much as Titanfall which genuinely felt like it offered something new (although the shine wore off quite fast). I hope Destiny improves, a bit like Diablo 3 since launch, but I read this comparison somewhere else and it sums up my feelings pretty well:

"Halo had epic levels and firefights. The set pieces were fun and memorable and made you feel like a badass when you were successful.

Borderlands had tons of character and humour. Even if the gameplay had its flaws, the game's personality made up for it.

Mass Effect had a cool story and awesome NPCs. You could make some meaningful or at least interesting choices and the trilogy had some fantastic moments.

Destiny borrows the more mundane or core concepts of these games, but not the ones I just described. It's basically like playing Borderlands, minus the laughs and references, with a shiny Halo/Mass Effect skin on top. It literally feels like a game we've all played half a dozen times, except this time it's on PS4 so it's prettier. I'm not hating on the game, just saying why so many people don't seem too smitten with it."

I reckon if you are fortunate enough to have the time and organised friends then it would be a lot more fun (but that does apply to pretty much any online game).
 
Im enjoying playing the campaign with friends, solo i think would be boring most certainly. I think they need to add new maps, game modes and increase the level cap. It sucks a lot has purposely been held back for DLC purposes though.

This was my fear from the beta, held off on it as it didnt seem promising
 
Turns out I got the Vanguard edition. Can't complaint for £317.

Umm may i ask why you got the game in the first place if you are not a FPS fan?

:D

I wanted a white PS4....yes, really :p

I want The Last of Us really but I wanted a white PS4.

I do like FPS, just can't stand it on the joypad, in fact, I am quite good with a mouse and KB.

Good way to sum it up there, Im still on the fence to get this or not, its the price thats holding me back. My gut says its just not quite my type of game so its not worth release date prices, maybe when its around £25 I may be tempted.
