There's a lot of resentment of this game from Destiny fanboys... not so much from The Division or Warframe guys, But Destiny? Some of their hardcore fan base is VERY threatened.

nublood Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I gave it another chance and tried the demo again last night. Man, I am just not feeling it. I'm really surprised because I thought I would like it. It has everything I like in video games. Loot, 3rd person perspective, RPG elements, freakin flying mechsuits, sci fi setting, and an actual story. I thought it would be everything I wanted Destiny to be. But for whatever reason it's just not clicking with me. But if the full version fixes the bugs and technical issues, I may come back to it one day. Maybe I'm just in a weird place and need to re-visit the game when the dust settles. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On PC, at least, it had numerous technical difficulties -- bad mouse controls (they were applying acceleration to mouse inputs, and had bad bounding boxes for flying -- BioWare has acknowledged both), crappy framerate (which even turning down the graphical settings didn't seem to fix), excessive loading between areas and crashes to desktop. If you didn't experience that, that's OK, but don't try to minimize the experience from other gamers who had a less positive experience from the demo than you did.

Which is why I said "some"... if I meant it as a blanket statement I would have said "all". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I'm wondering if this game should be delayed a month. I'm looking forward to it, but I'd want the best experience possible. I'll probably wait a month or so anyway. I hope it does well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Quote Continuing the series, this gameplay video showcases your first story in Anthem, along with javelin personalization and a look at the expanding world of Anthem and its endgame content. Game Director Jonathan Warner walks you through some of the contracts, Strongholds, and endgame content that will constantly offer new challenges for you to test your skills against.

They didnt mention anything about a "raid"...but it sounds like cataclysm will be made up of multiple public events and missions - maybe its their new take on a raid?

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I just realized that the 15th and 22nd are Fridays. That sucks. I do not have a traditional M-F work schedule right now. My days off are Tuesday through Thursday. I’m barely going to get to play Anthem when it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I do have a traditional M-F schedule, I'm loving that I'll be able to play Crackdown 3 and Far Cry New Dawn all weekend this weekend instead of having to wait until Tuesday. I don't know why Tuesday became the standard release day for everything. I don't have a ton of time to game during the week, so when a game comes out Tuesday I'm lucky if I get like 5 hours of time to play it by the time the weekend rolls around anyway.

Not every move for the Storm in the demo was either a primer or detonator. Now it looks like everything the Storm does either primes or detonates. Fucking NICE!

ShreddieMercury Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I don't love Polygon reviews, but their two recent features about Resident Evil 2 and the 90's Nintendo Power console design contest were excellent, and generally leagues more interesting than other comparable video game journalism.
