yes there are both dungeons and raids. though, i don't think raids is the right term. from what i understand there are dungeons that can be done with less than a full group (4 people) that scales to how many people are in it to some degree. then there are endgame dungeons that have to be done with 4 people and are pretty difficult. supposedly.
warframe is super twitchy, this seems on par with destiny, pace wise. on top of that flight is a core mechanic to anthem which warframe doesn't have, or at least not anywhere near similarly. i don't really like warframe either, so i'm with you on that. this seems much closer to destiny to me than warframe

When I played that alpha thing, this felt nothing like destiny to me. This is a 3rd person shooter for one, destiny is a first person. Destiny also has a more refined movement and gunplay which this game does not. and to boot the flight thing felt all janky and not intuitive at all.
On a grading scale 1-10 of movement anf gunplay, I would give Destiny a 9.8 while this game would get a solid 7. Of course this was the alpha thing this winter and more shit could be refined, but I doubt it. Besides with the lack of a PvP mode, this game will be dead within months if they dont add that shit in. Why collect loot and better yourself without a PvP mode for all that to culminate in? I mean I guess you will have your die hard PvE folks playing but for longevity these types of games need a PvP mode.

Destiny is a really clean feeling game, it's a shame the content and loot were as shallow as a kiddy pool full of urea. Give me a Diablo 3 style loot system with tons of gear options and encounters. Doing the same limited number of encounters for a loot roll, no thanks.

There's good reason they did the same shit, because their following loved it and just shifted to the new grind. They did absolutely fuck all to introduce or increase their following, however. Which is why it didn't sustain as well. And why Warframe and anything like it doesn't last. Folks blast through the content in a month, spend 6mo farming the same shit... On to the next iteration.
Which is what companies love. Yes, yes, buy, buy, buy!

the combat in anthem didn't feel as good as the destiny combat for the brief beta period, especially flying which felt really off but i guess we'll see. I totally am going into Division 2 and Anthem expecting only 2-3 weeks of fun and then never playing again, that worked awesome for me for division 1 which I still have fond memories of because I stopped playing the second I platinum'd the game.
i think there is another anthem beta period coming up too
I'll probably be playing anthem on PC via origin premium, loaded $60 onto my origin account. in six months the game will be like $20 anyways

He definitely ruined the ending of ME3 when he went outside of writer protocol and hamfisted in his own ending. Mac Walters however was creative director who thought Andromeda was a good game
