Does customization matter to you? What sets you apart?

Bungie's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUxRTCTr7ic#t=36m58s]4th Pillar of Destiny[/url] is about the player - that's you - and your journey throughout their universe to Become Legend. Rather than creating a story and having you simply experience it, Bungie is building Destiny so that [i]you yourself[/i] can create your own story. From what you do in the game, to how you look, to what you wield.
Why does customizing your own experience matter to you? How will you be different? What will set you apart from your brothers and sisters in The Last City?

The only thing that really mattered was your emblem because that was used as your waypoint/callsign (which I actually prefer because I feel like it's easier to recognize an image rather then some letters and numbers so in a way this affects gameplay rather than being customization IMO). I think of Halo 2 as the golden standard for first person shooters and it has relatively zero customization and its still better than most modern shooters. Halo 3 had more customization which is fine because the gameplay is still there. It would still be a good game if everyone had the same armor though. Halo 4 has a ton of customization but the gameplay sucks. I feel like they went out of their way to have players show off their Spartan with the card style menu (the whole menu system in Halo 4 sucks balls IMO) and they even added deferent poses for your Spartan. I feel like the focus went from playing to win/have fun (H2/3) to play to unlock cool armor so you look like a badass (H4). [b]tl;dr [/b]Customization is fine as long as the focus is still on gameplay instead of trying to look like a badass.
