Now Loading…One Destination Per Planet in Destiny, Does It Really Matter?

PlayStation LifeStyle: This week’s “Now Loading…” segment will focus on the very recent controversy of Bungie’s upcoming title Destiny having one playable destination per planet. The PSLS staff invested a lot of time into the game’s beta, and decided to weigh in on the issue.

I really don't get why people think Destiny is going to suck.

isarai4314d ago

Maybe because people have different taste in games?

BadgerDeluxe4314d ago

Or maybe people that have different taste in games can admit that the game isn't for them instead of being a child and just saying that it will suck?

Mortal Kombat looks stupid to me. I don't like fighting games, so I wouldn't be the right guy to ask about that, would I? I'm sure people who love fighting games are gonna have a blast with it! etc etc

MysticStrummer4314d ago

Having different taste isn't the same as making a definite statement that a game will suck or be garbage.

I don't think we can know the answer to the title's question until the game is released and we see how it all plays out.

Drithe4314d ago

The only people that complain about this Destiny are sucky nerds that only want to play FF 10 part 2 and would rather play dress up with the dollys than be a real hero and blow stuff the (*@$ up!!

End of line.

Cryptcuzz4314d ago

Thats the dumbest thing I've read all day that literally killed my brain cells. I liked Final Fantasy 10 quite a lot and I also like Destiny. I've put in a considerable amount of time in the beta and backed up the game on a number of times recently. I also have preordered and will be buying the Glacier White PS4 Destiny bundle as well. Can't wait!

Chuk54314d ago

I'm not sure. Old Russia is pretty big, and we haven't seen all of it. given that we know there seems to be earth, moon, mars, venus, the reef, if they are all more or less the same size, I don't think it's that big a deal. But we'll have to see.

Wedge194314d ago

They've said the moon is the smallest area, and I know people that spent 2 hours exploring that and still didn't see everything it had to offer.

HacSawJimThugin4314d ago

I am one of them. The moon was absolutely huge and I went as deep as I could go before being turned around by locked doors.

I blew through the mission dumb quick (about 15 mins give or take) just so I could go back and explore and it was worth every second. Can not wait for this game.

matrixman924314d ago

Reef is just another community hub like the tower

BadgerDeluxe4314d ago

Where are people getting this? I've been trying to stay on top of Destiny news and I haven't found one thing from DestinyDB confirming this.

kneon4314d ago

I'd rather have more planets than more locations per planet. Each planet will likely have fairly unique environments whereas locations on the same planet will likely be more similar.

Wedge194314d ago

I'm personally excited for Destiny. I think the people that aren't just need to realize that it isn't their style of game. Rather than bash little things or try to get them to change it, just accept that it's not for you and play one of the thousands of other games out there.

XtraTrstrL4314d ago

I think it's that with it being an MMO that you're suppose to explore large continents on, they expected it to be Skyrim or GTA size or something. I feel it's kinda small myself, but I may get it still.

As long as Activision doesn't have Bungie holding regions back that are gonna be $$$DLC$$$ and start a whole ridiculous thing with that up.

dcj05244314d ago (Edited 4314d ago )

Well, bungie said them selves that it's not an MMO. It's more of an online RPG shooter.

lameguy4314d ago

Yeah. It's come down to "Destiny is a good, fun game. It's just not the game that I wanted." for me at least.

I'll still get it since I won't bother canceling the pre-order. How long I'll end up playing it is TBD.

They were after that "30seconds of fun" loop and I was personally looking for something a bit slower, deeper, and more tactical.

strickers4314d ago

Did you read about Raids. 2 in the final game with more to be added.
6 player, friend only, tactical, challenging, 2 hour , long form missions

insertcoin4314d ago

I'm pretty sure that Destiny is going to reach a large audience. I'm not worried in the slightest.

Wedge194314d ago

Agreed, and all the controversy is just giving it more coverage. Just like TLOU Remastered. The controversy gave it more attention.

Wedge194314d ago

It may just not be your style of game. I've personally loved every hour I've put into Destiny so far, and as a trophy hunter, that's saying a lot, being that I can't get trophies in Destiny yet.

Its neat especially since not everyone might have two friends playing it. Makes it more personal to go at in duos.

Inverno42d ago

It's 2026 and basic match making features in MP games are still being drip fed to an audience that still gets excited over said basic feature being implemented.

Marathon hands-on preview | Notebookcheck

Darryl Linington from Notebookcheck.net writes: "Early hands-on time with Marathon, spanning roughly 10 hours, points to a distinctive extraction shooter with strong shell-based class design, layered faction progression, surreal presentation, and a dense UI that still needs smoothing out."

Almost 16,000 reviews on Steam currently has the game sitting on a very positive 90% Not sure if it has the player numbers but those who are playing seem to be enjoying themselves.

Putte75d ago

And as of now a 5.1 user score on metacritic. Really bad.

LiViNgLeGaCY75d ago

On Steam, you have to have bought the game, in order to play. On metacritic, ANYONE can review it. I'll leave it for you to decide which one matters more.

MrNinosan75d ago

Trolls on Metacritic, must be a new thing or you were born yesterday

The game is really really bad. So generic boring and lifeless. UI is terrible. Bad and slow gameplay. Not sure who gives the go ahead for these games. Insane all that money companies just throw away for no reason. Nobody a asking for these games

LiViNgLeGaCY75d ago

You haven't played it. That much is apparent from your comment. Gameplay is FAR from slow and boring. I do agree the UI definitely needs to be re-worked. But then again, you're just repeating a complaint you're reading about, not actually experiencing.

MrNinosan75d ago

Can you show any proof you've actually played it, by sharing your PSN ID or Steam profile? Nah, guessed as much.

Outside_ofthe_Box75d ago

Gunplay is the best thing about the game. To call it bad is wrong. Just because it isn't a twitch shooter doesn't mean it's slow, not everything has to play the same. Everything else is generic I agree.

Flenter75d ago

Yes I am. But tell me ,with goty games do you play? Have you even played Marathon? If not ...S T F U!!
So sick and tired of the hate BS 🤮🤮
