How are the missions for it? Game does look beautiful.


In terms of main mission it feels good, though there's only 1 real "main quest"

The side quests so far feel like your standard MMO / RPG fair. Collect a certain amount of items, beat a certain amount of enemies. The world is so beautiful though and gameplay so tightly controlled it so far hasn't felt repetitive.

Anyone who has played Halo knows Bungie is rather incredible at world building and it shows here. Every time you arive to a knew area your "Ghost" companion tells you a little bit about where you are. Its a brilliant little touch and gives the world your exploring weight and meaning.

Well guys here's some footage I captured directly from a capture card.

Also this was my first time playing the game, so sorry if I'm not super exciting here.

Thanks for the footage Ben, it looks awesome!


Thanks looks like its running at 1080p now in the vid, does it look ok on your end?



How's the narration sound?



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

At first it sounds jarring and not very good honestly and I'm a huge fan of the actor playing "Ghost". That being said as you get used to hearing him it tends to sound better.

I do love the idea of him informing you of your surrounding though and the lore behind everything. Its a great touch and brings a lot of depth to the universe of Destiny.

The Alpha is only the "Old Russia" area, 1 multiplayer map, and 1 Strike quest.

I'm not gonna lie I was pretty surprised how massive the Old Russia area is. The map's for each zone are going to be massive with a full day / night cycle and tons of side quests and free roaming enemies.
