* all they did was have someone re-read Dinklage's lines in a more up-beat way cause their previous attempts to just alter the speed of his original voice apparently didnt do the trick
* horrible mouse user interface that just makes things take for ever since it always idles on screen halfway from where anything you could select is located in relation to and its slow as fuck
* ridiculous action prompts that either require you to hold it down 5 seconds to fill a circle yet other actions require you to merely press it once and it gives you a count down timer to cancel This is variable and not always the same
* still no proper map with custom waypoints so you can know where to go to take your green highlighted items if you just started playing. Not an issue because the game does not rely on it, you don't even think about it after a few hours. This is a game that people have been playing for hundreds of hours a minimap would have been useless here.
* still have to keep pressing and holding the touch pad for 3-4 seconds so the waypoints that do exist stay on screen Again not an issue, the core content do not even use this function
* takes literally 5 minutes real time to just fully boot into the game to where you're controlling your character on land Play with a fireteam it'll be faster as it won't spend time matchmaking you
* takes 5 minutes each time you load back into the hub after missions see above
* shitty radar There is nothing shit about it, it gives you the direction and changes the intensity depending on the level they are on. It can also be manipulated with crouching. You simply are not used to it, it's close to Halo's radar.
* slow as fuck aim down sight animation It's variable, weapons have different ADS speed. There are gun and character perks for quick ADS and equip speed that stack on top of each other. Your starting gear is ofcourse going to be shitty
* no custom speed sliders for vertical and horizontal directions
* no custom audio sliders for music/effects/voice
* the many parts of the game has no audio at all (just like all their Halo games)
* even if you set your party to local other people can kill enemies you're engaged with which negates you being able to level up This is a non issue, you barely make any xp killing random enemies in public space, you will make a decent amount if you do public event and for that you will need help from random people
* cant change the look of your character till level 40 You can, you start getting different armour pieces soon enough.
* every mission is still go here, scan some shit, shoot enemies till scanning stops You're still playing the vanilla game I assume
* the game is only at v1.15 and already tripled its original 17 gig size on your storage Well they did add a ton of stuff since the original release
since I didnt play prior to this 1.15 patch yet literally everything above plagued the original release, I can only assume that if they think getting slightly better rated equipment after each boss fight vs nothing (apparently was the complaint) yet the mission structure and game play is the exact same, nothing about that makes me wanna play more.
especially as I'm en-route to level 4 mission some (??) ranked enemies just suddenly spawn an wreck my shit in 1 shot and I noticed even the enemies they intended me to fight at slightly higher levels than mine just simply take longer to kill cause they sponge more and I just have to hide behind cover as my shields regenerate cause they're hurting me more, they dont have any different strategies or rules of engagement, its just how many times i pull the trigger while my cursor is on them and how long i have to keep strafing.
and this is supposed to then make me wanna give them more money for whatever DLC keeps prompting me to buy
id rather buy the Mass Effect trilogy that will surely come out sometime within the next year and replay that, which will also take up less space on my drive than the initial Destiny size
