This jumped out at me (Destiny)

The enemies shoot so often that PoE feels more like an FPS bullet hell game than like a strategic wave survival FPS mode.

I've tried to play PoE like it was probably intended. Find cover, kill stuff, mount a defence, move when overwhelmed. Sounds fun.

Except it actually worked like this: Find cover, shoot some stuff, "Oh no I've been flanked, better move to more cover... Except I can't because the air between here and there is virtually made of bullets."

That said... I rather like PoE regardless. It's fun trying to run through that hail of bullets, it's fun leaping around the multi-tiered cover on the Vex, Fallen and Cabal levels and it's fun hiding in a corner and turtling your way to victory when nevessary. I suspect PoE will be my go-to over Dragon Strikes, even with the more limited rewards (I find most Strikes painfully boring at this point).
