Destiny is a strange creature, one that can be considered a mutation hybrid of games like Halo,Borderlands and any popular MMO and yet can't really be comparable to any of them. It's certainly not a straightforward shoot and loot like Borderlands, its scope isn't as grand as Halo, for now at least, and its MMO mechanics are extremely barebones. And yet, I consistently found myself queuing up for missions, and partying up with my friends to shoot some ugly aliens in the face.
