I'm level 23 so far and honestly even with a decent amount of time played and some considerable fun obtained I agree with the 6 completely.
The gun play itself is pretty solid in my opinion. Thankfully it is b/c everything else aside from the graphics just feels badly done.
This so called loot based game gives you at most two pieces of loot every hour of play. Hell I'll even double it and say it gives you 4 pieces every hour. That is still absolutely horrible. I mean the loot has been compared to Diablo and Borderlands and it's no where near the same as those loot busting pinata games. Forget the #'s though and let's say it did you a comparable amount of loot. It absolutely wouldn't matter at all b/c there is barely any variance at all. Overall attack damage and over all defense is the only major change. Sure you can increase strength and discipline but it doesn't really make a whole hell of a difference.
Socially the game is just flat poor. For the life of me I have no clue what the hell Bungie has been smoking. Why make fire teams ALWAYS default to private every single time you enter a game? Why can I not talk to people on my crucible team or strike team once we get paired together through the group finder? Why can there not at least be a simple chat box? Why can I only dance, and point at other players if they are not in my fire team anyway?
Do I even need to talk about the story? Hell everyone including the biggest Destiny fanboy agrees the story sucks. There is literally nothing that explains anything at all. Your Ghost is about the only form of information you have to set up anything that is going on.
Sure you can load up their website and read all of these Grimoire cards for back ground but who in the right mind thought that was a good idea? It's just a very piss poor way to get your story and world lore across, especially when you consider the money that got poured into this game.
Think about this. In order for you to really experience everything this so called "story" has to offer you would have to play a few minutes, then load up your web page every single time you see a new card unlock. You would then need to read that card online before jumping back into the game to continue on. Oh wait, another card unlock. I better go back to the webpage. Shit I can't pause this constantly online game so if I want to read about what the hell it was I Just saw I'll die. Better to just keep on then and simply not understand what the hell that was. Seriously it's just completely counter intuitive, my 5 year old son could have thought up a better way to deliver this content.
In the end every single system Bungie tried to include in their new baby aside from actual gun play itself just blows hard chunks of fail. It seriously feels like to me Bungie has just been enamored with themselves, full of arrogance and felt like anything they touched with turn to gold. Hell I guess they were right, at least monetarily as it's sold a shit ton.
