I'm surprised by the amount of Destiny hate. I'm still loving it. It's still expanding and far from over, I suspect. I think people are already taking for granted what it does that hasn't been done before, which is this seemless, connected world with the typical Bungie Polish. Nope, no hate from this corner. I think it's great! It was more just my mood last night than hate. I'm still spending a few hours every night playing the damn thing - but I do think (some) complaints about the loot system are justified. I don't mean I want a legendary item every time I do a mission. I'd settle for one that'll allow me to get to level 21. I've got two blue items with 6 light between them and the way I understand it, if I don't get more light I won't level. I've been 20 for about a week. I don't pvp but I've spent enough time in the game world to at least level up once in a week, I think. As it is I can solo some of the queen's bounties - did one last night with my hunter - but till I start getting better gear her missions, at level 24, are closed off to both my characters. I think I let Bungie off lightly!

Update, because I know you're all interested. After an hour shooting at a hole I got some blue boots with slightly more light and for the first time actually got a yellow progress bar - so you obviously need a minimum light level before you even get that. Boots levelled a bit but I have now ground to a halt at 20 and a half. But at least I have a yellow bar. I'm having tee shirts made up.

I think it's great! Not hate more like frustration and having a moan with other Victor Meldrew wannabes. There are things that need addressing for sure but I like the gunplay that’s solid, I just feel there should be some extra content for when you hit 20, the special event is nice but still out of my reach as I get slaughtered by any lvl 24 elite that looks at me.

After you left my new best buddy the Crypatarch trader rewarded my regular custom with a helmet that once levelled pushed me to lvl 23 And it also looks like I should be able to purchase something purple off the Warlock Vanguard this weekend so that means I'll be visiting the Queen before she clears off.

I've had reason to be frustrated. At level 24 I had not a single legendary. Picked up a bunch since then, and bought a shiny legendary auto rifle with my hard earned vanguard marks. I've done hardly any PVP, because I find it too tense, and I need to unwind after work! Pigmagnet, you'll struggle with the Queen's wrath stuff on your own at your level (possibly near impossible) as the bounties are there just to earn tokens for the proper missions, which reward you with legendary gear, and are harder.

Thanks to Bora and Retro for letting me hide behind them in a couple of strikes last night/this morning. Got enough coins to buy a smart yellow hat and shot up over a whole level when I bunged it on. It's a start!
Now a moaning 22 instead of a despondent 20. Until I get the same thing with the hunter. Roffle.
