[Kotaku]I played Destiny and it was kind of boring (Destiny)

by Leviathan , Hotel Zanzibar, Monday, April 28, 2014, 10:43 (3860 days ago) @ Xenos

Someone at Kotaku wasn't completely impressed. Go see why here!

Some of my favorite things are labelled boring by most people. Guess that means I should be more excited for Destiny!

From what I've read so far it's also the dissenting opinion (not to mention it's from Kotaku) so I'm not too worried :)

Heh, even if it isn't, "boring" has truly never turned me off of anything. 2001: A Space Odyssey, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, 30-minute Pink Floyd songs with 10 minutes of dogs barking... I'm quite the fan of a slow pace! Hell, most of my time in video games the last few years were just slowly walking around woods and looking at rocks and plants in Skyrim. I honestly got annoyed when enemies showed up, hah. I also really like video games I can fall asleep to...

As you can tell, I'm usually the life of the party.
