The main problem with the reviews is that they complained there wasn't much to do.
Well, Bungie explained a lot of times how Destiny was a long-run project. With raids, events, etc...

Its not about amount of content in hours, its about amount of content in new stuff to do. The story missions are really repetitive and badly designed, the Exploration mission (forget what they are called) are even worse, their is a very limited amount of multiplayer modes, after you beat the game, you are just encouraged to grind on strike playlists, which is tedious (partially because the strikes aren't very well designed) and the raids just seem to be long strikes with no matchmaking (and an absurd difficulty (the bad kind)).

Numerically there is a lot to do, but the variety is severely lacking

Sry review doesn't count since you've only played 6 hrs. Wait till your at 20 and have played the same strike for the 20th time.


Exactly. What's weird to me is when they play COD and play the same maps for the 20th time that doesn't seem to affect the score of COD and it's selling millions and being one of the biggest franchises of all time. I don't mind the low scores it's just confusing to me that other games aren't reviewed the same.



Competitive (PVP) is very different than Co-op (Group PVE), because with PVP, what keeps it fresh is how your opponents behave and the strategies needed to combat them. With PVE, the strategies are pretty much always the same, it can be mastered, and there isn't enough variety to keep it fresh. The only real variety would occur when your teammates suck, which is a negative point more than anything.

That's the thing though even if they just said the PVE isn't great. Well there is still PVP in the game and it's just as good (better to me) than COD. More classes and diversity in the way you can setup your character. Plus the rewards after matches make it more rewarding than a normal COD game.

I just don't see how anyone can jusitfy giving COD a higher rating than Destiny. There just isn't a valid argument IMO.
