So I have been playing the trial version of Destiny on PS4 for about 3-4 weeks now. here is what I have noticed so far.

The trail version limits you to level 7. Which is fitting as it gives you a good taste for the basic super ability of the class you chose. I am a hunter and the golden gun is fun, but doesn't seem to do a whole lot of damage at this low level. Maybe with more use I can sqweak a few more hit points out of it.

level 7 also allows you to get some unique armor and weapons, but nothing really of a "set". I have just about maxed out my armor set but on occasion will get a rare level 7 armor that has a boost on it. Weapons are about the same. being lower level does allow me to experiment with alternate weapons like shotguns, fusion rifles, auto rifles, etc and level them up and upgrade them. Again, to a limited extent, but fun none the less.

You do not gain vangaurd rank in Trail. I do see the icon pop up with the +10 Vangaurd and such, but my total never gets off zero. I don't know if they are actually being totalled and I will get them when i go full version.

You can particiapte in public events, but again you don't get a lot of the rank points others do. You get the item rewards, glimmer, and materials though. Got a couple Level 20 items that way.

Lastly you are locked to Earth only, and you are done after you activate the array. After that point you can either replay the story again or just patrol Old Russia. I went into Devil's Lair, but it was empty for me.

I would recommend Trail for those wanting to play but don't have funds for the full game. Its a great way to get started. PSN is dropping the price of Destiny on a bi-weekly basis. I think I saw it for $29.99 a couple weeks ago, which I should have pulled the trigger on.

Oh, you can find the gold chests on Earth, but only the ones that are before Devils Lair. I have three of the five so far. The other two are story related and I cannot get them yet.
