An interesting observation about D2 Beta Reviews

So I've read all the reviews and opinions on the D2 Beta so far; I've spotted an interesting trend in the opinions from the ones that are saying it's great and are loving it. All of these Bungie defenders have sub 5000 Grimoire, No "From the beginning" node unlocked on Y3 MoT and have 1000 Hours or less gameplay time. You will say Grimoire doesn't mean shit, but it's an uncanny trend that I've spotted. Any D1 Alpha/Beta Vets with 5500+ Grimoire and 3000 Hours logged have anything good to say about this D2 Beta? I'm curious...

    Waiting on my clan mates to play the strike and dip into the crucible. But that story mission... HOLY SHIT, IT'S GOOD!!! It's bombastic, intense, epic. You can clearly see how they've built it with the new players in mind with progressively more challenging encounters. By the time you reach the courtyard, you get to repeatedly kick all sorts of ass with your super (I stuck around long enough to unleash my Arcstrider wrath 3 times) and learn the ropes of your subclass. Then, you're off on your own for the final act. It's Destiny cranked up to 11!!! The objectives make much more sense than the pseudo sci-fi mumbo jumbo of vanilla (you know, "let's scan that matrix that allows me to release the beam that triggers the sequence to unlock the thingy that does... flashy lights?" WTF?!?). It's go there, meet him, help him out, find her, meet up with her, get a map, find the place, blow that shit up. And graphically, it might not be 60fps, but it looks damn sweet on the 50" 4k Vizio hooked to my PS4 Pro. Like, much, MUCH, [b]MUCH[/b] more crisp than vanilla. So... yeah. My two cents so far.
