Honestly, I like both games LOTS. Style wise I like the setting and fantasy nature and the combat of Destiny but The Division has some great elements to it.
Actually, The Division is actually a really pleasing contrast to Destiny in so many ways. It's grounded, bleak, grim compared to Destiny's over the top, colourful space opera. They compliment each other nicely. It reminds me of when Fallout 3 and Fable 2 game out around the same time.

I agree, and I never understood why people say the division's setting (grim and bleak) is bad or that they take it as a negative...it's supposed to be, society is on the brink of collapse and apocalypse. It can be argued it's already in the early stages. Making it colorful with rainbows and unicorns would be completely jarring and illogical.

That's exactly how I feel about it. I really hope both games stagger DLC releases in the future. A lot of money could be made by both by working together instead of against. I guess against if they are trying to one-up each other.

Ya but ubisoft seems to be trying to 1-up destiny
-
They're kind of at an advantage there seeing as how they released their game 1.5 years after Destiny, don't you think? You don't think Bungie's taking notes while they're working on Destiny 2?
-
Of course bungie is taking notes why do you think the division dosen't have any of destiny's problems. The looked at what was already out. People never think about this but a game that comes out second has less merit for making mistakes because they weren't the first.
-
Do you see how that's exactly what I was implying? lol
-
Ya I know I was backing up your statment
-
Gotcha . I mistook it as saying that only Ubisoft was the one doing any 1-upping.
-
Na I'm sure destiny will do the same with there next release

There'd be some merit in alternating between sweet and savoury flavours of the two franchises to alleviate staleness, but I also hope competition drives both companies to compete for our affection.
