Initial impressions on Destiny for Xbox One. Movement, weapon types, gameplay feel very much like Halo. Graphics are nice, crisp 1080p visuals, though feel a tad generic. (Halo was distinctly Halo even though it felt generic, yet iconicly scifi) Destiny looks generic, but not iconicly anything. Peter Dinklage isnt as bad as people were making him out to be, but he isnt anything special either. Gun bikes are way OP if you maintain distance and let shields recharge. Enemy types mostly recycled from Halo, but this is not a bad thing. Mission structure seems cool, if not predictable. No real surprises. Its a well made game. Working with a team is fun, stumbling upon random people who cross your path is interesting(Weird when those same people phase out of existance once you cross a dungeon threshold). If I had to sum up Destiny so far, its basically the Halo take on Borderlands with an optional Arena component.
