I will say, I wish there was a "high level" hub away from the Tower (The Reef maybe?) that had specific high level content. Not a major gripe, as I can adjust the difficulty on existing content; however, the rewards don't usually change. The exceptions being the weekly and daily missions/strikes. I think it would be cool to have another social space out near the edge of the Darkness to allow high level players to partake in more difficult challenges.

You'll get your wish.

9/26?

No knee jerk, 12 hours of playtime here.

Review forthcoming.

I think Ben Kuchera at Polygon actually gave interesting thoughts about the game:

I still don't agree with a lot of his and Polygon's opinions on the "missteps" but he brings up how I feel about the gameplay and my constant itch to get back into the game.

-- Steve does think that game criticism needs to change, but doesn't think that torch-bearing lynch mobs will result in any improvements.

I believe many of today's game media is highly reactionary to Internet opinions and applies prejudice in a manner which culls the greatest open venue acceptance for their reviews.

This. Because Gaming critics are scared to death of their readers. Most critics are, but gmaing especially. Their readers aren't opposed to shredding them on the internet.

I predict that 'official' video game reviewing will undergo an epiphany resulting in a new and improved paradigm.
