I agree with ] that ] shouldn't be in the genre field of the infobox. Not because it isn't a genre (a genre is anything that describes gameplay really) but because Destiny really is more sudo-open world. If you read what IGN, Eurogamer, etc. says about the game its pretty obvious that it isn't like Skyrim. ] (<font color="#0645AD">/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/</font>)<sup><font color="#0645AD">]]</font></sup> 19:03, 17 February 2013 (UTC) I agree with ] that ] shouldn't be in the genre field of the infobox.

Genre

I agree with User:The1337gamer that Open world shouldn't be in the genre field of the infobox. Not because it isn't a genre (a genre is anything that describes gameplay really) but because Destiny really is more pseudo-open world. If you read what IGN, Eurogamer, etc. says about the game its pretty obvious that it isn't like Skyrim. Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/) 19:03, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Just created a discussion on the open world as a genre at the wikiproject talk page. Hopefully a concensus is reached to remove it from all articles. Link: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games#Is_open_world_a_genre.3F. The1337gamer (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Need some more people in discussion over the platform field of the user box

Discussion going on over here, although we should probably move it to this page. User_talk:The1337gamer#http:.2F.2Fwww.ign.com.2Farticles.2F2013.2F02.2F17.2Fdestiny-quick-faq

The gist of it is that both http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/17/bungies-destiny-a-land-of-hope-and-dreams and http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/17/destiny-quick-faq mention "future generation technology" as a platform, should it be added to the infobox? Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/) 19:10, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Change "from Marathon, Myth, and Halo creator Bungie." to "being developed by Bungie." ?

So the first line would read: Destiny is an upcoming first-person shooter video game being developed by Bungie. This is an encyclopedia, we don't need to "show off" all of Bungie's accolades, no matter how great they may be. Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/) 19:16, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
