So I'm a casual gamer, I enjoy pretty much any type of game. Any type of game except platformers.
I only bought Destiny a week ago and while there are some hard challenges for an old casual gamer like myself, the game itself is beautiful and fun.
Until, that is, I got to Cayde cache mission. Great, now I need make stupid effing jumps and not fall to my death. Epic fails ensued.
Having eventually finished that mission, I thought that was probably it with the mario bros. throwback that I always hated. But then, I got to Queen's ransom mission and gave up after 50 deaths.
Are they freaking serious with this crap? Is this a shooter/rpg combo or a platformer joke???
Just needed to rant, but seriously, this game should've come with a warning "Requires platformer type gameplay" so I could have avoided buying this crap. This really ruins games for me.

Shooters not only require shooting, but positioning... Destiny has increased aerial mobility when compared to most other shooters, it is quite fitting to that the developers task players with platforming. It is almost a demonstration of the physics engine implemented, having players jump through an obstacle course to reach a goal. All that said, just wait for the reimagined vault of glass, the tears of rage will ensue.
