Is this page really needed? From a gameplay standpoint, info pertaining to Destiny itself should be in the "Destiny" article. From a genre standpoint, FPS is hardly needing an article on this wiki since it's a real-world genre. From a categorization standpoint, it seems redundant in that it's the only one in the game genres category - if Destiny is enough to warrant an FPS article, then by the same logic it's enough to warrant MMORPG, ARPG, "sandbox game," and every other genre label under the sun that could apply to it. I could see a "shared world shooter" article existing which would cover the genre that the game is said to represent (admittedly I don't se it as a genre per se - if it is, it's in its equivalent "Doom clone" era), but as is, this article seems pointless.--Hawki (talk) 22:44, 15 May 2014 (EDT)
