What a joke - READ

There is so much buzz going around for this game it's spinning everyone's heads. Negative, positive everyone's got their opinion. I bought this game with a white PS4 console for $549 AUD. With a standard console costing $500, this means I paid a total of $49.00 If I sit and think about the amount of times I've wasted money on games, soft drinks, movies I hated or girls that I never saw again, $49 is not a huge expendature (unless you're a 14 year old boy who has their mum only buy them a few games a year). So what has such a small expenditure bought me? A great many hours of entertainment. I was pretty much the engine of the hype train leading up to destinies release and as soon as I clocked the main story missions and began feeling as if the game had less to offer than I thought. I shaved my head, tattooed an anti-bungie symbol of hatred on my forehead and marched towards bungie.net's forums to express my disappointment in the game. So if that was my opinion, why am I writing this? Because you and I sir, are a bunch of whining little self-entitled bitches that take everything (that people have worked their asses off and put passion into) we're given, rip it apart and ridicule it until it's no longer recognizable and then tell it's our opinion and it's all justified. Video gamers are amongst the worst community to try and please in the world. The developers stay too close to the safety of repetition and we slay them under the mighty banner of comparison and if they try and do something radical and it's not perfect for every single persons set of expectations - all of a sudden they're the devils big hairy cock and need to be vanquished. The fact of the matter is, Destiny is a great game in the sense that it provides entertainment for the money we pay for it. I spent $49 and have spent 20 or so hours on it already, and could easily spend hundreds more with the updates, improved events and added content in the future. If I feel really enthused I might even spend the $40 on the expansions and even then I've still spend less than the $99 price tag in Australia's EB Games. Step back, look at what you take for granted and enjoy it for what it is, not what you want it to be. If not, go spend your $100 on COD or Battlefield and ask them what they're trying to do to path the future for gaming. And have a good think about how much value those games provide too. EDIT: I realize now that this last paragraph was a pretty poiniont but at the same time not entirely constructive. It's never enough to shed light on a fault and walk away, as a critic we should always include constructive feedback along side any negative opinions. It works as a double pronged dildo; on one end it penetrates your dick like appearance by giving your words meaning and hanging on the othet end is something for the artist to contemplate and possibility utilize

    Destiny didn't deliver and it is just your average recycled FPS but I guess I better respect the developer anyways. [b]Seriously, what's with all you Bungie fanboys throwing the word entitled around? Do you even know what it means? I spent $70 on this game so I am entitled to my opinion you moron. The game is a terrible cliche-filled train wreck with nothing new to bring to the table. It's dreadfully boring and it has no good story development at all. The multiplayer is still filled with bugs that people pointed out in the beta, but of course Bungie only had a beta to get more pre-orders.[/b] The game is nothing special and it's justa generic FPS Bungie made to get easy cash. They advertised the DLC [i]before[/i] the game came out dammit. I feel like I could watch my feces float in my toilet and find more enjoyment there. On top of it all there's also server issues even though the beta was supposed to ensure there wouldn't be any.
