Am I the only one around here
Am I the only one around here wondering why, with all the other engines that were shown that completely outclass what we've seen of destiny so far, Bungie still insists on going with their own engine and not licensing? Say what you will about Bungie but their engine tech has always been middle of the road compared to other contemporary games.
Maybe because licensing a third-party engine isn't always such a great idea when you're building a multiplayer game. Personally I've never considered Bungie's game engines 'middle of the road'; games like the Call of Duty series have managed a smoother frame rate but usually that comes with a sacrifice to the scope of the environments you're fighting in. But since we're talking about aesthetics here maybe it'd be a good time to remind everyone that this stuff is highly subjective...?
