If you support Destiny you support the death of gaming

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzopWRXK_r4 I agree with Angry Joe and let me explain why you supporters will ruin gaming, because you tell developers this is okay. It's like Unreal Tournament III on the PS3 all over again, it had PC mods, yet everyone chose to support Call of Duty 4 and it's map pack, killing off mod support at the beginning of last gen, in that game on the PS3 you could be running around as Masterchief in some newly created community map, nope, gamers would rather pay for four new maps at a time and now it's common place. Gamers are their own worst enemy, it's not feminists, politicians, social justice warriors that ruin gaming but those that tell developers it's okay to release a half arsed game and focus most of the budget into marketing rather than developing. I just hope companies like Rockstar and Bethesda who make Grand Theft Auto and Fallout don't listen to you lot and start giving us games with 20 missions, 4 game modes and probably no story at all. EVEN POKÉMON HAS MORE OF A STORY!

  • The story isn't even close to being done. The game is great, what sucks is all of you who were expecting a different game and are now butthurt about it. I suppose it's part Bungies fault for advertising it as a game for every one. This is not a game for every one. There are parts of the game people will never play or do 'cause they don't understand these parts or aren't good enough to do it. The game is good, but right now a lot of its community sucks.

    • [quote]I agree with Angry Joe and let me explain why you supporters will ruin gaming, because you tell developers this is okay.[/quote] So I shouldn't support a game company that has managed to bring together some of my favorite parts of multiple gaming genres into a single experience, because I'd be telling them that what they have done is okay? This new math stuff is hard . . .

    • People like what they are going to like. I like this game. I like Diablo 3. I like living in South Texas. I pretty sure many people don't like things I like, it's America we're free to do what we like.

    • Guys just ignore these kinds of posts, defending destiny is adding fuel to the fire as another post put it. Continue to help others on the forums and enjoy the game!, leave this post alone.

    • Yeah I don't care about this. Destiny is fun to me. I enjoy playing. If you don't, then go away. If enough people go away, things will change. However, you can't tell me to abandon a game I enjoy simply because you don't think it's good.

    • Pretty sure that Angry Joe's point was that Destiny was essentially a fun game with some very serious flaws (like lack of story/content and such), but still had potential. Not that it was "the death of gaming". Take a step back and try not to be such a drama queen.

    • If more games will come out like Destiny, then I'll proudly support that. And I'll stand on Angy Joe's coffee table and shout it from the top of my lungs. Try not to get too mad about it.

        I think your problem is you watched a review. Now that his opinions are stuck in your head and maybe your too stupid to accumulate your own? I didn't read any reviews or articles on how good destiny is, I played the Alpha and the Beta, I enjoyed them both so I bought it, I am still enjoying destiny and therefore happy with my purchase, I don't need to rely on other's opinions of a game to tell if it's good or not.

        • I'm not even going to bother reading the comments, i'll point it out if no one else has. Do you know what expansions are? Have you not played games like WoW or Diablo? Destiny isn't trying to be the next big Halo. They haven't even finished the series. You can level up now. Seems obvious, but what you don't see is that the level cap can raise. Planets can be added. Hell, even entire solar systems. I get , WoW had a universe full of content from the start compared to Destiny, but how can you complain when no one has scan endgamed yet? Glass of vault is just the beginning. The queen is next, and ofc there's more to come. What's ridiculous is how people think they've ended the game at lv20. Where Bungie and Activision screwed up? Only hardcore gaming vets will recognize all of the mechanics of the game. What's more sad? Only a few of you will even comprehend what I'm saying.

          • To play Devils Advocate to this ridiculous Bandwangon. Let's look at this from the perspective of the Shareholders. You know, The guys that actually PAY these exorbitant costs of development before sales and they recoup the money the spent. They spend money up front looking to make money. They don't want to lose money. So when someone comes forward and says "I would like a loan to help pay for developing this idea I have into a game." They say "Why should we give you money and will we get it back?" The Developer says, "This game will be a hit and you will make money. You make enough money that you will want to invest in more ideas we have." Fast forward after all the deals and intricacies have been worked out and watch the magic. Game sells well and is good. Shareholders will say "Hey we made money off this idea! What else you got?" Game sells well and is crappy. Shareholders will say ""Hey we made off this idea! What else you got?" Game sells poorly and is crappy. Shareholders will say "We didn't make money. Pay us back and never expect us to finance you again." Game sells poorly but is amazing. Shareholders will say "We didn't make money. Pay us back and never expect us to finance you again." Yes, we the consumer vote with our wallets but it's a double edged sword. When we cost shareholders money by not buying them, they turn to marketing who compiles their research and goes "Well clearly this IP is a dud. Recommend you spend money somewhere else." If we did not support Destiny, we kill any chance of new IP's, universes, and stories to be created. While backing "critically acclaimed" games like COD, Battlefield, Sims, and various other franchises that are clearly starting to show their age, we tell marketing "This is the goldmine! Keep pumping until the well is dry and there's nothing left!" And they do to where the games clearly have nothing more to give but people keep showing their true colors anyway. Is Joe right that we shouldn't settle for this "half baked" storytelling? Yes. We shouldn't. We should ALSO keep in mind that our voting with our wallets is a double edged sword. By denying a new IP a chance to grow and experiment... THAT is the TRUE death of gaming.

            • I know. People having fun playing games they enjoy will kill gaming for sure! Cause, like there aren't a bajillion devleopers out there making all sorts of games for all sorts of audiences for all sorts of devices. So people who are enjoying playing destiny, you should stop because somehow, someway - I am not sure how - you are ruining it for all the people that aren't playing Destiny or don't like Destiny. Your having fun is an insult to them. All those millions of people playing all those different games on all those different platforms deserve better from you than to be insulted. So stop having fun and make sure you only play games with stories or whatever it is that people are complaining about this week. Games that will also be banned - Chess - one mode, zero customisation, zero story. Scrabble - one mode, limited customization, and stories is confusing to say the least. Backgammon - because it is wierd and I don't like it. Yahtzee - cause the rng is like way too r.

                  • God, do people actually watch those entire half-hour rants..? These "reviews" are targeting people who either already share his opinion and like hearing someone agree with them loudly or people who hate themselves and like being told their opinion is wrong, loudly. And with stupid impersonations.

                  • Yeah, the story was short and it wasn't very good... but I enjoy the game play, I enjoy the interaction with others for the most part (something I didn't enjoy in other multiplayer games), and I enjoy that this game is set up to run for 10 years (in theory). I also think moding is very much alive on PC, look at the Elder Scrolls series, that franchise is pretty much driven by the moding community. And to touch on the death of gaming... that happended when developers decided they need to crank out titles of the same franchise every year... not when paid dlc came around. [spoiler]P.S. I enjoyed Unreal Tournament 3 more than CoD4!!![/spoiler]
