Anyone care to post a spoiler free review?

It's better than any other expansion, except for the music which is mostly lacking in… personality for lack of a better term.

But is it *twice as good*? You know, 'cause price.

27/16ths as good.

That sounds great.

How are the new weapons, armor, strikes, enemies? Was the gunsmith preview just a small taste of a wide ranging array of new and interesting perks or was it the whole thing disguised as a preview? Too soon to tell? Are the new enemies as predictable as the old ones or have they surprised you with their AI? I've heard the strikes are different each time (if only to a small degree)... true? How did they feel?

I'm so full of curiosity!

The first 5-6 missions make up the main body of the 'single player' story. They're much more like what you would expect from a Halo game than Destiny, with non-linear explorations, actual storytelling, characters, and *gasp* cutscenes!

I am actually excited to play back through the missions on my other characters. on Vanilla destiny and its previous installments, I LOATHED going back through the boring missions. I was telling Petetheduck this morning about how its nice to play actual missions, instead of "ride your sparrow for 80% of the time, then shoot things".

Character personalities are great, Eris is weird, Cayde is hilarious, even Nolan North's Openining Dialogue before the first mission fit. It made me appreciate the switch from dinkelbot.

This. Nolanbot has come into his own with the TTK stuff. It sort of gives him context.

And Cayde is obviously great, as is Eris. They're all awesome, actually. I'm really digging the new stuff, about five missions in, I think.

I just finished the mission where you got back to the moon for a shard of Crota's soul.

Taking a break for some pizza then I'm going back in!

I'm about 30-45 min away from being able to play, so exited (reply)

4 or 5 missions in... It's fantastic. I'm totally loving it (reply)

So far it's what I would have expected Destiny to be on launch. As soon as I finished the story, tons and tons of other quests opened up to me. You know, the whole "game starts at level 20" thing.

The jury is out on the grinding, seeing as how I've only played it a little.

I had a huge smile on my face the entire time, even if I woke up 2 hours early to play this morning!

[spoiler free] Three missions in: I agree. Wow (reply)

Oh man. Still not disappointed.

In the words of Sir Paul, there's hope for the future.
