Meh. I see the same anti-hype here that I've seen everywhere. Idiots hyped Destiny up so much that everyone expected it to be something it could not possibly be, which is perfect. It's a good game, and I enjoy playing it, but I don't play for hours and hours on end. The story is definitely on the short side - you won't even hit 20, the last story mission is level 18 - yet even so, you have to do patrols (aka repetitive quest grinding) to keep up in level with the story missions. I'm looking forward to more content being released, it's definitely a bit lacking right now. I'd give it 7.5/10. Also, I'm not a hermit with no friends, so that's helpful. It's a lot more fun with friends.

Edit: Also, if you haven't played it (even if at a friend's house or something), not sure why you would feel qualified to review it.
