10 Reason's I believe Destiny's fanbase will drop 50%. Do you agree?

Yes

774

No

730

You forgot a game!!!

129

-EDIT 3- This list is not in any particular order. Far Cry was just the first thing on my mind when I was typing this, however, I am more excited for Warlords(my number 1) and SSB(my number 2). Take the list as a place holder and not a competition. 1-Far Cry 4 2-Grand Theft Auto 5-Next Gen 3-World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor 4-Assassin's Creed Unity 5-Assassin's Creed Rogue 6-Dragon Age:Inquisition 7-Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare 8-Super Smash Brother's-Wii U release 9-Little Big Planet 3 10-Tom Clany's: The Division Popular demand requires me to list an extra one. 11-Halo: Master Chief Collection. Sorry Bungie. Even if you only lose 5% to each game(and we know that won't be the case for WoW and CoD), that is 45% fanbase gone counting both Assassin's Creed games together. If you bump up the WoW to 15%(My guesstimate) and CoD to 25-30%(another guesstimate) that puts us at an estimated 75-80% playerbase reduction for the next 2 months. My real question is how many people will stay with those games without returning to Destiny? Another question I have is for those that already have the DLC purchased and return in December, will you leave the game if the new content is just rehashed old content as the Queen's bounty was? -EDIT- If I forgot a game, list it below. Keep in mind we are going to December. Nothing for early next year please. -EDIT 2- Do we count the "You forgot a game!!!" choice as a yes,no, or neither? Haha -EDIT 4- Never said people can't enjoy the game or play more than one title at a time. However, less time dedicated to the game will hinder the amount of gameplay which in turn show's a decline in interest. If the trend is starting at earlier than 2 months after release while there are no other game's to fully compete with at the moment, what will it be like in the next month or two? What about between expansions when even more games come out? Please do not get off topic and think I am saying you are limited to one game at a time. Let's show at least one post a bit of maturity. Also, these numbers have been stated to be my predicted estimates. No where did I say these were fact and concrete. Stop digging people, come on. Wow, 413-Yes and 414-No as of 4:25 P.M. Est. If that isn't 50% I don't know what is.

  • Next year destiny's community will plummet with the release of games like planetside 2, Star Wars battlefront, mass effect 4, and no mans sky. Destiny will only have a few thousand people on it by that point

      • My problem was being so excited for release, I played this game to death. The first 2 weeks of Destiny I had a lvl 27 Titan and had done the strikes numerous times each. I'm not the type to play PvP in a FPS for hours on end, so naturally I prefer PvE.. Except there is no diversity

            • You also missed that FF:ARR releases it's 2.4 patch at the end of October and that will entice a lot of PS players back to it.

            • Strongly agree, destiny is such a small game with very little content. By December, who will even think about destiny?

              • I'm already back to playing GTA 5 halo (any) minecraft (360) assassins creed (any) and other games. Destiny is not a 10 year game it's a 10 day game unless serious changes are made and their us free DLC

              • Yeah I agree. A video game's fanbase always drops when a game of similar genre comes out. The only games I saw on your list that I believe actually belong there are FC4, the Division, Halo, and CoD. Each of these games are shooters, and we already have people here that are CoD fanboys or long time Halo vets; and then we have the people who want to try out the Division (I want to try it out too). Do I believe this will break Destiny? Of course not. People spend money on stupid shit. I mean, AC and CoD have been out for forever, so they'll play it because it's new. Destiny will gain a crowd when it gets new content too; it's inevitable. I love Destiny, but it's just a flavor that's popular right now... Because no other flavors are actually available in terms of shooters. But I don't think 45% of the gamers on here will leave for good, that's silly. But a decent amount of people will leave, and hopefully this community sorts itself out and becomes what it was during the Beta.

                • While I'm really looking forward to the Division, it won't be out till early next year: So as far as games coming out very soon I'd have to say these are some contenders I don't see on the list: (keep in mind they could be pushed back, but are so-posed to come out this year) Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age Lords of the Fallen Space Engineers Also some more that I'm not really sure I'll play but come out all the same: Sunset Overdrive The Crew

                    • What a stupid poll. Every game loses it's fanbase. It doesn't go on forever.

                      • That's not 10 reasons, it's a list of 10 games, half of which will be mediocre at best. The only game listed in your post I'm even remotely interested in is your edit.

                        • Unless huge changes are made to classes, PvP, content, and rewards. I will be searching for a new series to empty my cash and time into.

                        • I predict the population will drop a lot more than 50%. Destiny's a melting pot of fans of different genres and franchises. I feel that very few gamers are strictly dedicated to Destiny. Also take into account that many people are looking forward to new games for their new consoles. Plus, there's the undeniable fact that consumer satisfaction is already low. By the end of December, Destiny will still be going but it will be forgotten about and dead in the eyes of the vast majority that purchased it. Just my personal opinion.

                        • I'm waiting till the DLC comes out to decide if I'm leaving Destiny. If they haven't made changes that make the game more fun and if the DLC doesn't bring enough into the game then I'm leaving for sure.

                        • 50% is an extreme. They will see a population drop in November. Most games will because its game season. However I don't see it effecting destiny long term. If anything bungie's nerfs will do that.
