Bungie it's not your fault

Ok Bungie, Everyone wants to bitch and bitch and bitch about Destiny which is fine because that's peoples opinions. I honestly think Destiny is an amazing game with a lot of different features that haven't been done before and the game play is fun and addictive. That being said, there are some things that I think happened that led to the faults in the game. 1.) If your a true gamer, and know Bungie, you better believe this lame ass story they put out was NOT their idea. I mean c'mon we are talking about the creators of Halo. A game that revolutionized gaming forever, especially online. The story of halo was more complex than Destiny that's for sure. 2.) In my opinion, something happened in 2013 to the game and development to cause the lame story. Let's look at this for a second. The lead writer for Destiny left, coincidence? Not a chance. Look at who's paired with Bungie on this game? Activision. The kings of half assed games that will eventually sell DLC content to try and revive the game. I think Activision went to the writer and said the previous story, (which was amazing and WAY MORE engaging With crow and how the traveler is bringing the darkness), they didn't like it because why you may be thinking..... what game has Activision been so hell bent on every year? COD! What's probably the average age of COD players? Teens maybe below that? So if the story was to complex for kids the game won't sell. It won't apply to their market of buyers which is younger kids. So this why the release got pushed back from June to September because they scrambled to get together a story for the release and couldn't push the release any longer. Does the game not feel rushed? "He's in a tank", "it's the vex", "I don't have time to explain what I don't have time to explain" really? Real edge of your seat stuff right there let me tell you. NOT! 3.) I played alpha and beta, and in those people found hidden areas that were not accessible yet which many thought "oh it's beta no big deal". Which in reality what I think what happened was, the game was finished before alpha or beta, but when Activision cancelled the original story, they had to change story missions to accommodate the 'new' story, which made these areas still accessible and lead to DLC. 4.) DLC, in my opinion, was stuff already in the game but since things switched because, guess what Activision stepped in, they held off and kept the areas to DLC when it was in the "original" game. For example, in the new DLC, they have already been quoted saying that"the story missions are very different from what the game holds now". So in myn opinion, yes DLC was in the game but Activision stepped in and said otherwise with changing the story and changing the game. 5.) There were cut scenes that we have never seen in the game yet. The scene of crow with a handgun to your characters face, and him kidnapping you (crow in the original story is the queens brother). So there was definitely a BETTER story and more ENGAGING story the the one that we have now. I know I'm probably missing some things here but that's the basics. So everyone, lay off Bungie a little. They are trying to fix someone elses call. IMO Destiny is one of if not the best game I have played in a year or so, and that's as it is now. Along ask is please release the "original" game that you had. It sounds amazing after stuff read. If you haven't read it or seen it google it. The story is so much more compelling. Again Bungie I don't blame you, I think Activision is hurting more than helping your cause at this point though. You need the lead writer back, this game can be an amazing franchise if you stick to the "original" story again. Bungie your game is awesome and I'm not a Bungie fanboy either, I never owned an Xbox nor halo. These are my thoughts and opinions on what I have read and seen. Nothing is certain. Take care Bungie and fellow Guardians
