The gunplay has moments of epicness (both PvE and PvP); it also has moments of induced rage (also both PvE and PvP). The story is interesting when you actually find it; Cayde will easily be your favorite character. :P The grind is real and sometimes extensive, but it's not as bad as other games; the time-gating, however, is irritating. It has its challenges that are much better with other players. Beware the saltiness of the forums; people are not as bad as they seem on here. Then again, some exist as manifestations of evil, so beware the trolls.
