I used to play religiously, knowing it's not a very good game. Sunk somewhere around 1,200 hrs into it. What kept me going was the hope that the game could eventually, over time, reach the amazing potential it had.
I've given up completely on that at this point. As others have said, it will never reach its whole potential. It has to do with the developer's motive and goal. They are NOT motivated to make the most badass game ever, they are just motivated to make a ton of cash off of the addicts they have created. It is a fact that they hired psychologists to help them understand how video game addiction works, and they've done that. They've gotten a ton of people addicted to the carrot on the stick that you can never get, and successfully added micro transactions to milk it even further. They have proven time and time and time again that they are content with milking it, doing as little as possible, and favoring $$$ over making a quality product.
Destiny will always be "ok" because of the gameplay, but after I broke my addiction (thank you FO4!!!) I can see it for what it is. I just play very casually now, and I will never again invest crazy amounts of time into it again.

You absolutely nailed it. I enjoy playing, but won't be investing any more money into this game as it just doesn't cut the mustard

Yea i doubt some of us will sway them into doing things differently. Especially since they are under contract with Activision. Eventually people will gradually come to their senses, but not before they continue to buy into this. I had about 10 - 15 friends who bought this game because of me, I'll be convincing them to do the exact opposite for any future installments.

Honestly this was a well thought out reply, I appreciate you sharing today; it's probably for the best that we don't sink to much time into the game anymore. If what you are saying is true, we might have to give Bungie that motivation. There is a way. There is always a way. Fall Out is one hell of a game by the way, I just wish it was multiplayer sometimes.

Edited by puppyk1sses: 12/29/2015 11:24:19 PMEveryone is already giving Bungie plenty of "motivation" by showering them with money and investing ridiculous amounts of time into their lazy game. I think that cycle has already been set in motion. They know they are allowed to re-skin, recycle, barely update the game at all, and do the bare minimum and people will still be all over this game. Addictions have already set in at this point, tons of people are on the hook. Cash is flowing.
