A Destiny Impression from a relative gaming outsider

Not quite sure who this game is supposed to appeal to at the moment. Personally the beta failed to satiate my original hype, all its genre inspirations seem undercooked.

A minor example was all that time to hit level 2 to simply be able to use a grenade that runs on an rpg cooldown system. Boy did that throw me off. Not the best of first impressions, it didn't get much better as I progressed.

It is gorgeous though and the netcode is solid so I'll give it that at least.

what did you expect.... bam beat the intro mission YOUR LVL 2 now you have the ultimate ATTACK!

Might be why this game blew me away, because I was sortof in "keeping tabs on it" mode as opposed to hyped for it. Also, did anyone catch the fact that what they let us play in the beta was the games intro mission.... I mean when you beat all of them your lvl 6 or 7 can now do bounties and crucidle and you have all the basic skills on the ability tree. Literally where they cut us off was the situations to apply those abilities.
