... great expectations, lead to great sorrow ... -yoda

I never seen you write this I'm not sure how I missed it but good on you for writing up how lot of people feel. Amateurish, is how I would describe Bungies decisions with this game. They are stalling what little content they have and it's not helping How can a game studio that created a series as organised as Halo, become one of the most directionless messes of 2014? So many things wrong with the game. Feels like a different company under the Bungie banner I hope they can add more but not at the expense of the consumer. They still owe us the game they sold us on. I know they will charge people out the arse for content to be honest because they care little about what a few hundred people think

Why did you post this? Are you trying to get people to stop playing this game? I dont understand. If you dont like it, dont play it. Its pretty simple -_-

With as much as Bungie is denying the accusations and questions by us the community, Destiny will fail. We're only getting 3 story missions, 2 strikes, and 1 raid from the December DLC, and 3 story missions, 1 strike, and 1 raid from the 2nd DLC. Unless there's a lot of free story missions, added lore and cut scenes, or an entire new mode (going to use Halo 4's spartan ops as an example) that gives us a new and continued story mission AND cut scene weekly, then Destiny will never last. Destiny's DLC past the House of Wolfs will only sell if the first 2; which most people already bought before they knew what they were buying, are just amazing. I doubt this will be the case though, and after people who unfortunately already paid for the DLC expansion pass see how it's nothing new just the same lazy point defense missions in the SAME exact areas they'll never buy the 3rd DLC. The only thing Bungie can do that can save this game is tell us the truth. There is literally one 2 plausible scenarios. 1) Bungie comes out and reveals that yes the story was something completely different and had to be cut/changed/rewritten because of problems. (either Activision, the terminations and firings, both, or something else... Doesn't really need to be in detail.) Followed by an apology as to the sorry state Destiny was released in and it's being worked on. 2) Bungie comes out and says "No, we honestly thought Destiny was an amazing game at launch and didn't think it was as terrible as it was". Followed by either "We're sorry and trying to fix the mistakes we've made" or "We're sorry, but we're abandoning the project."

You people are still replying to this guy? Who cares about what he thinks of the game, and if he's going to stop playing or not. No one honestly should care except for him.

I wanted to like the game... there is just nothing to do apart from shooting guys in the face... Why are we even shooting these guys in the face again? Because some random people told us to? DLC wont save this game I'm afraid, god, I hope I'm wrong, but something tells me that this is as good as it gets.

why do people keep saying how amazing halo was? halo was like the average looking girl you settled for when you couldn't nail the perfect woman, great body; but had that kind of chubby face that makes you say to yourself "please don't look at me when we have sex"

Im not too sure about the rest of the community, but the reason i bought this game is because no other games have arrived this year. Many games have been delayed to the coming year, and it leaves many gamers hungry for new game, Destiny was one of them and i was quite disappointed from the lack of content. This game's budget was over $500 million, and not to bash on Bungie, but GTA 5 had more content, longer story, and bigger worlds-- and the thing that bothers me is it took bungie like 8 (maybe 10) years to develop this while GTA 5 took 5, i believe. In addition GTA 5 budget was nearly half the amount it took destiny, 265 million. My opinions.

S'up Longface, big fan, we've talked before, but I'm going to hit you with a hard truth that I think many people with similar complaints should hear. This isn't the game for you. This game wasn't designed for you, this game isn't, and will probably never make you happy. .... .... Dust settled? K. This is, straightfoward, an MMO. It always has been. Granted it is a new type of MMO, but it is one none the less. Now yes, it is unfair Bungie repeatedly said "this isn't an mmo" but, anyone who played the alpha, beta, or followed development at all, knew, this was an mmo. Which means : - people who play in groups will have tons of fun, for a very long time, despite the lack of content. Because the raids/multiplayer/pve to pvp systems were set up brilliantly. - People who love grinding (most mmo players) will love this game for a very long time, because repetitive content doesn't bother them - A majority of the people still playing this game don't feel like you do. They were not expecting a start/middle/end story, they weren't expecting a plethora of content on launch. So I'm sorry, but this game probably just isn't for you. Now you are still playing it, thats just a sign of how great the mechanics and fundementals of this game are. But you're also a minor celebrity on the forums...and that's probably contributing to why you're still here. Maybe you are the type of player who actually likes MMOs and jsut wasn't expecting this to be one, and will come around to it. But based on your posts...i don't think so. I also see you haven't completed the Raid, which is far and away the best part of this game. Now i have much love for you, and your posts, but if you are HONESTLY asking yourself, "why do i play this game?" then you should be equally honest when you answer...."because this game wasn't made for me..." And you cannot blame Bungie for that. They set out to make a game that they would expand over 10 years (coughcough MMO coughcough) and they joined up with a company that has Massive experience doing this (activision owns blizzard). Just like I do not blame EA for making Madden games and me not enjoying them, and I wouldn't expect a Madden player to enjoy World of Warcraft (not saying they can't just saying they're two massively different styles of games).

Hmmmm... Release a game with plans of a ten year shelf life. Give the players the entire story right off the bat. (The game is projected to be ten years long through multiple releases) Give players access to every single planet, strike and raid the first day, or couple months, of release. (The game is planned out through ten years of development) Your argument, sir, is invalid. If you are getting bored then put the game down, your opinion is your own after all, but they cannot release a ten year game in 4 weeks and expect people to come back for more. Almost, almost, every great series of books I have ever had the pleasure of reading started off with a gigantic "wtf...how in the....who is that....what the hell...". It was not until later books in the series came out that the story finally flushed out, characters and situations developed and things started clicking. People need to start looking at this game from the miniseries concept, things will begin to connect after years, not days. I understood certain parts of Mass Effect the first few times I played it, and after playing the entire series, then re-playing it all after a year or so is when the beauty finally hit home. There is no point for a majority of players to sit here and grind spinmetal, replay the same strikes whatever else you are doing for 4-9 hours a day. These activities exist for people coming in to the game, the people who just bought it. This is a high concept, billion dollar investment that has just begun, it is not going to be for everybody. Maybe they want you to put the game down and go outside, who knows. I don't go into a book store, grab a book that says either "part 1 of 13" or "first in the series!" then write pissed off letters to the author saying I have been ripped off because the other 12 books wont be included with the 4.95 cover price. You are reserved to your opinion, everyone has that right. When you lay it down on the table in a public forum, get ready for some rebuttal. Bungie has not ripped anybody off, they have not cheated anyone. If YOU are finding yourself bored playing through the SAME shit over and over again put the controller down and walk away, as simple as that. Wait for the next part in the series to come out and take part in the opportunity to get immersed yet again. The less people on the map going through my farm runs the better. The playerbase seems to be improving a bit after the unsatisfied people have moved on, the no matchmaking is brilliant, pugs in that raid, especially on hard, would remove any desire for future raiding plans. The game is fantastic, from the cracked and bubbling streets of Venus, the way a Vex seems to breakdance when you engage it (I swear sometimes the bastards point at you then pop and lock about 40 feet away), that sense of awe the first time you get a scenery change in the Raid. This game was more than I was hoping for, and maybe that is just due to the fact that I didn't follow it around for 38 years before it hit the shelves. All in all I couldn't have been happier with the game the day, and first couple of weeks it came out. The loot changes to the Cryptarch were completely uncalled for. The people complaining about the lack of materials and weapons had no sense to do so the first couple of weeks of a public release. I farmed patrols, a lot, still do, in the first few weeks. It is a personal choice of mine not to engage in PvP and all of my gear comes from the PvE side of things. The loot has chagned for the worse because Bungie decided to give in to impatient folks that couldn't wait it out, that is my only complaint so far. 9/10, Fantastic game, will continue to play it for as long as it runs.
