Bungie has emphasized that the universe of Destiny will be "alive". Events may happen in-game that are not necessarily controlled or planned by the developer, which will help to create a dynamic developing experience for Bungie and a dynamic playing experience for gamers. The game's style has been described a first-person shooter that will incorporate massively multiplayer online game (MMO) elements, but Bungie has avoided defining Destiny as a traditional MMO game. Instead, the game has been referred to as a "shared-world shooter," as it lacks many of the characteristics of a traditional MMO game. For instance, rather than players being able to see and interact with all other players in the game or on a particular server—as is the case in many conventional MMO games—Destiny will include on-the-fly matchmaking that will allow players to see and interact only with other players with whom they are "matched" by the game. Destiny will incorporate a new game engine that allows global illuminations and real-time dynamic lighting to occur together. An innovation in Bungie's "hopper" technology, which has been the backbone for Halo's matchmaking system, will allow better player matchmaking in order to create a more natural experience in either cooperative or competitive multiplayer modes.

Having finally hopped on board the Destiny train, I've gotta say I'm a little disappointed. The game is a lot lighter on power use than I was expecting, which I suppose is my own fault for having preconceptions in the first place, but as it stands it feels like a bit of a watered down Borderlands.

I'm still enjoying it a lot though, and I'm glad I picked it up after all these years.

Can I just take a moment to say how much I freakin' love the MIDA Multi-Tool? Seriously, it is one of the best guns in the game and is perfect for players like me who would rather stay back and assess each situation instead of "running and gunning". Makes cutting through enemies a breeze!

Started this game last October after Destiny: The Collection came out. Despite putting in hundreds of hours, I still haven't finished all of the DLCs. Decided to come back and try to finish things up. While I likely won't be able to get every last item or milestone, I figure I can at least finish up the story in its entirety. Currently running a Lvl. 40 Hunter, 400 light bladedancer.

I liked a lot, but the story mode is too short and I don't like multiplayer games to much, so it become abandoned very soon.

I started this in late December and cleared most of the content a couple of weeks ago. Let's see if I give up before the next expansion comes out, lol.
