Absolutely hated the gun play in anthem. Destiny has me so spoiled it's hard to play any other shooter.

Yes the guns in Anthem seem way underpowered, not sure if they'll change that up or not.

Guns are really secondary in anthem. It's more about gear. There's also the whole first person versus third person thing. Anthem's gonna feel different regardless. For me, mixing the flight in with the combat is more fun than anything I did in Destiny 1 or 2.
It's all going to come down to the story for me. The lore is really interesting, as is exploring the world in Freeplay. The challenge system and unlocking blueprints is the kind of grinding I like. I just need enough content to keep me invested over the long haul. That's where both Destiny games really failed for me. Destiny 2 had much better storytelling than 1, there just wasn't nearly enough. I hope Anthem delivers. No way to know yet. Looking at the achievements it could be ten missions. Or it could be twenty or thirty. |

Story is setting up quite nicely, seems like a lot to do at least early game.

And the fact that there are so many challenges gives you a reason to use different weapons instead of just sticking with two. Ditto for gear. It's a completionists wet dream.

I was glad to see the worries about the cosmetics shop after the pic leak a couple weeks back ended up being baseless.
6 days to go. Unfortunately I only work on two of them (never thought I'd say that...) so there'll be some long days waiting. |

I have Premier and started playing this last night. I'm only a few hours in (level 4).
Initial impressions: Love the way the guns feel. Flying around is pretty cool. This is by far the most gorgeous game I have ever played. BioWare KILLED with the graphics. I'm running it on everything Ultra at 1440p at a steady 80+ FPS and it is jaw-dropping. Holy ****, there sure seems a shit ton of things to do.
