From what I have seen the gun play mechanics are not close to those if Destiny...I have not seen/played any game that comes close to D1 or D2. I actually see Anthem as more of an action MMORPG than a pure loot shooter. This being the case, based on what has been revealed, Anthem looks promising in that it will allow for character development, team role playing and variable complexity in ways that Destiny currently does not. My primary issue with Destiny is that if feels as though the inherent strength of the game - gunplay and loot questing - is consistently usurped by needless gimmicks like incessant platforming, time gates, puzzles,etc. I play a shooter to shoot things. If I wanted puzzles and platforms I’d just play Tomb Raider.
