I'm seeing mostly average scores in this thread so far. How many of you played the beta? I sunk several hours into the game, even though the beta capped out at level 8.
I bought the game based on my experience with that, not hype. After playing the beta missions and playing the strike mission with friends, I viewed the game as 9/10 potential, since the full game was gonna be beta + more. Now, I'm playing the game and some of the story missions have been expanded a little and there's even more patrol missions....on the first patrol map. And I have access to the moon and will soon have other planets. And I haven't even touched the Crucible.
All they've done is make Earth/Crucible better, and based on just those, I thought Destiny was a really great game from the beta (which was the overwhelming opinion on VGC back in July). Now there's more stuff? And people are saying the game is just "ok" now? Ok.
