Is there a media bias against Destiny?

I've noticed there doesn't seem to be much talk of Destiny in the gaming media, despite the BETA being a relatively large success. I've also noticed much of the media seems to downplay Destiny as a highly anticipated game despite the game breaking preorder records as seen here.: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tech/tech-news/Activision-video-game-Destiny-sets-pre-order-record-Executive/articleshow/40277361.cms? Perhaps it's just my imagination, but is there a media bias AGAINST Destiny? Why are so many people in the media and pop culture either ignoring the game's existence or claiming it's "nothing special." What do YOU think, is there an actual media bias against Destiny, yes or no?

  • #1) there isn't much to talk about. Bungie is keeping their cards close to their chest so to speak. #2) gamers in general have been burned a lot lately with over hyped games not meeting expectations. I don't think "bias against" is the proper phrase. More like "highly skeptical".
