MCC vs Destiny (psst, Malagate) (Criticism)

First I’ll jist say to keep in mind that you play at a higher level than a lot of people here. That probably naturally makes your games more sweaty.

That said, yeah, Halo matchmaking was just as sweaty, in my experience. High level Halo play is probably more sweaty, to be honest. The flip side is that I spent huge amounts of my time in Halo (Halo 2, especially, which was my peak engagement with Halo PvP) in custom games playing Zombies or Fist Ass Extreme or Warthog Joust or just generally screwing around.

Destiny’s sandbox perhaps doesn’t support those custom options as well as Halo did, but they’re still sorely missed. Custom matches hold no appeal for me. I’d honestly rather 6 of us group up and hit Quickplay and make progress towards something than 12 of us group up and face off. It’s just not that compelling with the ridiculous options that Halo had.
