Haha, no. but my source was about as credible. Personally I thought they'd do Hammerfell next because of all the reference in Skyrim, although i'd vote for black marsh anyday as it's a tropical landscape which I think could make use of some badass graphics. If only they'd go back to Morrowind gameplay ...

That's the first positive statement I've heard about Destiny since it got released.

I carry one of each type everywhere, plus fusion rifles and shotguns of every damage type for shielded enemies. Yes, I know it's unrealistic because guns are fucking heavy, but if I want realism I'll go play Desert Bus).

Wait, if you didn't like Borderlands, why do you like Destiny? Random loot drops is a Borderlands thing, Destiny has been explained to me as a cross between HALO and BLands. It's the reason I'm not really interested.

Other than shooting things point blank with a shotgun, I couldn't manage to hit anything in Borderlands.

The story in Borderlands was great, but I was tired of not being able to hit anything at any range other than point-blank.
EDIT: for the inevitable "I play borderlands and hit things just fine" comments, your experience doesn't change my experience, and if you want a cookie I suggest you go to the store and buy some.

Which is understandable, I just would like to ask if you played the original Borderlands on a console or a PC? I had similar issues until I did some .ini tweaks in my PC version, and even then the game was only really good because I was able to play with friends. Dreaful port, though at least they were smart enough to take out aim assist (though from the sounds of it BLands never had aim assist to begin with) where Bioshock Infinite did not.

Mmm, yeah that can't have helped... I find it impossible to hit ANYTHING in an FPS game with an xbox controller. PS3 is sliiiightly better.
Anyway, I was just curious what about Destiny you enjoyed if you didn't like Borderlands. It's good that Destiny has a better combat system for sure, I did find Blands (especially 2) get simultaneously really boring and frustrating after a while.

Well said. People who want realism can go play "Train Simulator". Realism had novelty, when games first started using it, but that's all it was... novelty.
Anyway, I guess the hype really did have a huge role in the disappointment so many people had for the game. Also, kudos for them not limiting you to two guns. I was so sick of that trend. I didn't think a game released by Bungie knew any better.

So many good games on that system. I loved Persona, Xenosaga games, Shadow of the Colossus, ICO, God of War. Such an amazing system with too many good games. sadly it was the generation that started to destroy everything i ever loved about final fantasy games
