I can kind of sympathize in terms of the feel. Destiny just has better gun mechanics, as well as character movement. Everything has weight and impact. It's very distracting going back to FPS games where this isn't so, even ones that felt good at the time. Halo included.

The Halo 1 shotgun felt great, but fire it in 2, 3 and beyond and it feels like a feather.

I can say that Halo 5 has made some major improvements in this area. I don't think the weapons feel as good as Destiny's, but the Spartans themselves have much more weight, impact, and power than they used to. When you hit a grunt with a thruster charge, it really feels like you just crush the poor thing :)

Someone is breaking the review embargo.

Nope. We're allowed to talk about our impressions from 3 of the missions.
