A Thought About Destiny's Reception (Destiny)

This post feels disingenuous. Reviewers aren't "confused". They just don't like the game. Every negative review details unremarkable enemy design, bullet sponge boss encounters, repetitive missions and unengaging story. All of those are failing as an FPS.

Solid core mechanics can only take a game so far if it doesn't engage the player in interesting encounters or make the player feel invested in the story.
