Look how many people deny their addiction and defend the game, knowing damn well the game is designed to play off of the reward system we all have in our brains, even with the simple probability of being rewarded is enough to keep people attached.
If anything destiny is an incredible social experiment. Not a good game, not even close. Once you step away for a bit, examine the fundamentals behind the game you'll see its deliberately and psychologically manipulative, designed to keep you playing just to see what's in the next engram. It's Las Vegas in a video game. Except instead of money it's your time. Throw in hundreds of hours, with maybe 20 minutes of those that are actually efficient in getting leveled up. The rest is spent navigating around the time limits that serve no real purpose, the random drops where once in awhile you get something decent only to find out every other player has the same damn item.
Bungie has made it clear that this will [b][i]never[/i][/b] be the game they described to us. There will [b][i]never[/i][/b] be an intricate galaxy wide story. There will [b][i]never[/i][/b] be additional areas, as seen from the house of Wolves leaked content. You [b][i]cannot[/i][/b] go where ever your eyes can reach, as purposed by Bungie spokespeople repeatedly. There [b][i]will[/i][/b] be and endless grind resulting in [b][i]nothing of actual relevance, since every other gaurdian in the galaxy has the same damn outfit,cloak, mark etc[/i][/b]
Their first dlc was twenty to thirty minutes long, that was the [b][i]same god damn locations just in the opposite direction[/i][/b] the second dlc is more of the same.
Tl;Dr,....game blows, destiny can't make an rpg, if you defend the game remember addicts always defend and hate the substance their addicted too. The hamster wheel was the main inspiration behind this game.[/quote]

1 ReplyLife is what you make it. One can have a drink without being addicted to alcohol. One can have intimate relationships without being an addict. Call of Duty, league of legends, WoW, Halo, solitaire, poker, etc. They're all games. They've all played by millions. They all have many repetitive features. This game is no different in that way, I agree. Often in trying to guess the intent of or diagnose others we diagnose ourselves. You may yourself being addicted to videogames. We all have our vice and really what you mean to say is that Destiny was yours, but you're bored of it. This is a common behavior in addicts of all types. You will find a new addiction. Your post is an homage to the old saying "misery loves company". Bungie made a game with intent to entertain for many, many hours. A lovely candle to burn with your friends time and again. Its your own fault that you've already burnt out the metaphorical wick. Please refrain from bringing other people into your pessimistic world view. Thanks, B

14 RepliesOP don't listen to these dick heads telling you your opinion is wrong. They must be -blam!-ing stupid not to agree with what's been said and that's unlucky for them I personally could not care less what anyone has to say but I do agree all this game is, is a gambling experience. Some people on here should have stayed in the nutsack.

1 ReplySeriously, when will you and people like you realize that we don't give any -blam!-s about the fact that you don't like the game and you're quitting. If you like the game and are trying to make it better by reaching out to the developers then ok, but you're not. You're pretty much writing your goodbye letter, and the only reason anyone is seeing this piece of trash is because for some reason it's trending, or almost there! IF YOURE QUITTING THE GAME THEN STOP POSTING TO FORUMS ABOUT THE GAME!

3 RepliesSee the game does hit the addiction button quite well for me having ADHD a obsessive personality and a lil dose of OCD i can't help myself I like to collect my exotics... The addiction is real I know it's a shallow game yet that hasn't stopped me from creating and levelling two more characters to 20 despite having only one character since launch

1 ReplyEdited by Wake: 1/26/2015 5:46:29 PMLittle story for you: I went 'round my girlfriends house the other day, as she told me she had some news for me. When I went there, I was shocked. She and her ex were embracing each other within earshot of me. Oh, how embarrassing! She told me, "Sorry, but you just don't satisfy me anymore." Vexed and heart-broken. I pulled out my revolver out of spite and fire two shots. As they lay on the floor, dying, crying for mercy, I become even more irate and inexorable. So bloodthirsty. I popped two more caps up they ass. I then ran home, tears streaming down my eyes. Later that day, knowing I couldn't go home, I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I can say that this cab was rare. But after I thought "nah forget it"-"yo homes to Bel-air." I pulled up at the house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabbie "Yo homes smell ya later." I looked at my kingdom I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-air."

4 RepliesWhat type of nonsense are you on about? I don't play for the virtual rewards, but the real sense of achievement when you try and fail but persevere and eventually succeed in the games toughest challenges, you might say I play for the challenge. I enjoy developing and executing strategy with my gamer buds. I enjoy teaching and helping people with different aspects of the game. I enjoy testing my acquired skills and weapons against other guardians in the crucible. I have always loved shooter games. Halo 3 introduced me to online gaming and the series introduced me to the shooter co-op genre. Destiny is definitely the game for me. If you can eventually stop focusing on what the game is not maybe you can see what the game actually is. If you still are not satisfied then I guess it isn't the game for you. So head off and try to spend your time enjoying yourself instead of sulking like a child that lost his soother!!!

1 ReplyIt's just a game dude. Bet you sit on Facebook everyday too. You could say the same about sonic on the sega, you could say the same about any game. Stop being a spoonhead and either quit, or just keep playing. I'm addicted to my family and the gym more than this game, it's just a decent distraction until nextgen sort itself out and some better games come out. You damn hippys protesting all the damn time, I can tell your one of the microtransaction generation.

Edited by Unyielding: 1/26/2015 3:46:14 PMIt's mediocre at best. People enjoying it are willingly letting their pockets get picked for content that should have been there at release.

Destiny is a good game, but could be better.

2 RepliesThen just quit already. Youre posts arent helpful. You fall in the same category of people who were upset over facebook taking their pics and using them yet those people still log in every day. So if u dislike destiny GTFO, or youre just feeding the fire you're trying to put out. Plus it makes room for more constructive posts.
