Can't claim 5500+ grimoire or even 1000 hours, but I've been playing since the D1 Alpha and loved the journey that was Destiny 1. Given that it's a beta with 2 missions and 2 crucible maps, I think people need to chill the -blam!- out. Buuuut, I can say I that I love the change to PvP. Having to use actual gun skill and teamwork is a nice change from the ability spam of D1 crucible. I don't like the pacing of PvE, however. Abilities don't seem to do much at all, and the hard hitting weapons like snipers, fusions, etc don't have the punch they used to. Every moment feels like a grind to chip down an enemy's health. The mechanics have been stellar, tho.
