Overall impressions? (Destiny)

I sat down to type something and realized that I hadn't seen any gameplay trailers Be right back.

OK, done. I guess that's a side-effect of growing up on dial-up internet. I just don't watch stuff on the computer.

So far, I guess I'm underwhelmed. Bungie is going to make a nice shooter and the universe they craft is going to be fun to explore, but I'm not sure that I'm looking for a shooter.

Powers look great, but I'm bored to tears by the weapons. They all look like archetypes we've seen before, and the lack of alien weapons doesn't bode well for a diverse sandbox.

I mean, if you're going to give us a pump-action shotgun, at least make it a Moe Special.

Another bonus for me is going to be vehicles. I want there to be a Warthog, something that accommodates the whole fireteam. And maps to use them in, something on the scale of Mass Effect's planet missions.

Bungie keeps saying "Wait and see", so I guess I shall.
