Now before we all start clamoring over one another to shout out our most recent peeves on what Destiny did to us today, let's stop and think about this. If you don't know what I mean, try this: Go to wherever it is you play games and turn off the lights. Turn up the TV, turn off your phone, and cancel out any and all other distractions. Just play Destiny.
It's boring. Why is it boring?
Is it just me that experiences this?
I like the gunplay, of course. The gunplay is really what draws me to the game, that and some kind of tantilizing addiction to the gear dangled just out of reach by the random loot generator.
But that's not what I mean.
When I stop planning out my character and exit the PS party or turn off the movie on my computer and actually focus on what's happening in the game, I get this overwhelming urge to stop and play or watch something more interesting because the game is [i]boring[/i].
Why is that?

I think the repetitiveness has a lot to do with it. The way i work around it is having a goal. Obviously there are the weekly events we all try to finish while our friends still need to complete them. But after that i work on bounties then switch to strike playlist. Now i don't have a lot of play time so I'm never done with all these too quickly. I know it seems more like a check list and maybe it is but it helps. Also I'll switch to working on my exotic bounties from time to time. With iron banner i was able to multitask and finish all 3 exotic bounties. (Ive had these forever, no i didn't get all bounties back to back) Also helps to have multiple characters, working on my warlock's vanguard rank to buy dlc armor and trying to get my hunter to 20 to final equip the armor I've bought/ found for him.
