Is Anthem a Destiny Killer?

I only have room for one ‘hobby’ game in my life, and right now, it’s Destiny 2. But Destiny’s innumerable missteps have become the stuff of industry legend, and make no mistake: with Anthem, EA wants Destiny’s audience. YouTuber AztecCross says “the vast majority” of other content creators at a recent Anthem event were fellow Destiny specialists. That’s a clear indicator of EA’s intent: Destiny’s YouTube and Twitch community has become essential to its success and its enduring place in the broader gaming conversation, and despite Anthem's many differences from Destiny, EA wants the same ecosystem. But does the game BioWare has built deserve it? During the Anthem demo this weekend I, like many others, consistently suffered a bug where loading screens would hang at 95%. That’s a shame, because I mostly enjoyed what I did manage to play. Anthem has real strength in areas where Destiny, to the growing frustration of many, has been weak since the start.
