Edited by Don Knots: 11/1/2014 7:30:27 PMThis game's pretty cool, it helps with passing time. But that's about all. At times, it kinda feels like an arcade shooter, ya know with like the actual light pistol you fire at the screen while on a rail. Kill stuff to reach a checkpoint...pretty linear but that's ok. My only issue, and it's sort of a big deal, is the false advertising. The official gameplay footage talked about trading and gambling which kinda implies an in-game economy. I know it doesn't sound like much to complain about, and in the scheme of things it MIGHT not be. But people don't realize how much an in-game economy changes a game. It gives the grind purpose, it adds depth and strategy. Not really complaining, just noting that this feels a little like a "bait and switch" thing. And I bought the digital copy so I was like "well this is gonna take all day to download...might as well buy the pass and begin that process too". So now I'm stuck with a game that you(Bungie) said would have things in it that I don't see. Things that truly would have changed my mind about buying the game. I'm an rpg/3rd person action game player, not an fps player... I mean not even boarderlands! Not into the whole "I am a floating gun" thing. So you can see what draws me to a game. I thought this game has enough rpg elements in it for me to get into it....hmmm, what happened? Bungie you're dipping your toes into the pool of consumer rights abuse. Careful, companies that run around that pool tend to slip and fall, some even drown. Good luck tho, I don't wish failure on anyone or thing. I'm not one to sign a petition or anything. The economics will tell the tale and hopefully Bungie and, most of all, Activision will react accordingly.
