So we've heard rumours...

...that Destiny's story was changed late last year, but what if there was plenty more changed? This video a friend shows me goes back through all of Bungie's Destiny videos and shows us what has been cut or drastically changed from the current retail version we have. -Armor and Weapons didn't have level reqs, just Weapon/Armor level that scaled the weapon/Armor effectiveness to that player's level. -Legendaries and Exotics dropped at ANY POINT IN THE GAME, scaling with player level. -Weapon upgrade trees were much different and there wasn't any need for farming for resources or ascendant materials, and they had better upgrades. -Factions seemed to play a bigger role in the game overall. -The Reef was a fully rendered play area in-game as a possible safe haven space like the Tower. -Both Saturn and Mercury were also fully rendered in-game. (There wasn't any footage of actually being on-planet.) So what the hell happened? Destiny got a major reworking prior to us getting the game, so it is essentially NOT the game they were selling us from the beginning... What happened to the REAL DESTINY?

  • You're seeing a bunch of different game/cinematic files that hadn't been put together into an actual game yet. You have a bunch of individual mechanics and some of them were chosen to display to the public. Others were put together into a demo version that you saw being shown & narrated. There were likely hundreds and hundreds of even more, different versions of game mechanics and cinematics and location renderings that we never even saw that were scrapped long before this or even after. Have you not seen a preview to a movie a year, or sometimes even months before its release and you spot a clip or scene... then wonder where that was in the actual movie? Have you never accessed the Deleted Scenes/Director's Cut on a blu ray/dvd? Have you heard the term Theaterical Version or Uncut Version? Why do you think those terms exist? [b]I'm guessing the people who keep reposting this same old video by this [i]really annoying accented guy who seriously deserves a punch in the face for that accent alone[/i]... Not to mention the sheer amount of speculation he is doing but presenting it as fact... have never actually been involved in software development at any stage.[/b]
