I love bungie, I loved halo, but let's face it. Destiny was a let down. There is no way you can objectively justify the lack of a story, the redundant missions, the horrible dialogue, etc. Yet people try to justify it anyway. I'm putting together the most ridiculous defenses of Destiny's mediocrity I can find:
1. The dialogue is supposed to be short and to the point.
2. Destiny is not an MMO, so don't expect to have more than 3 players or voice chat
3. Destiny is an MMO, you better get used to it. MMOs rarely come with the whole story.
4. The campaign is just a prologue. It will be much better when they release DLC.
5. The missions are supposed to be repetitive.
6. The missions aren't repetitive at all!
7. Go play call of duty you cod fanboy.
8. go play halo you halo fanboy!
9. Yes, halo had interesting campaigns, but this is not Halo! Go play halo if you love it so much.
10. I think bungie did a really really good job
11. The ghost is a ROBOT! He is supposed to sound emotionless.
12. the ghost has a lot of personality, you just don't understand Peter dinklage's deadpan delivery.
13. Destiny is really really good! You are just a troll.
14. bungie has a plan!
15. You haven't even played the game!
16. It's an RPG! RPG'S aren't supposed to be about action.
17. Destiny is not an RPG, it's a shared world shooter.
18. You are just butthurt because you keep dying.
19. The story is in the grimoire! Just open your computer or mobile app during the game!
20. The game starts after you beat it.
Face it guys, I really wanted Destiny to be fantastic. I like it a lot, but it was nowhere near my expectations. Expectations bungie had me believing.
Feel free to add your own.

Don't forget that the PvP has you dying faster than COD. Between the shotgun/sniper and super abilities it seems I'm almost always dying in one hit.

Heres one. "This account has not yet played Destiny" Therefore by that logic, all your arguments are now invalid so says the giant pancake.
-
but mmos have stories?
-
Give it a week or two for the denial to pass. Then the whining comes in in hordes.
-
I agree, with two caveats. One, #14 could still be true. Two, this game is still a hell of a lot of fun.
-
A lot of us are having fun. If you're so let down then go play another game and let those who want to keep having fun do so.
-
#20 is hilarious. Ive seen that so many times
-
I wish they would have talked more, or at least had some dialogue between your character and ghost but oh well, I liked it anyway.
-
So I guess you learned not to have too high of expectations
-
I somewhat agree. I like Destiny a lot but its not what I thought it was going to be.
-
I like destiny and bungie as a company so everything you said is invalid. Why don't you just leave ?
-
Another troll, please move along and don't feed it. Thank you.
-
You must really have nothing to do with your life if all you do is make threads about how the game is a let down.
-
You're genius, bro. I just read a great one: It's not supposed to have a story because you are the story. F'in idiots....

Edited by legionnares: 9/14/2014 11:17:58 PMHmm....how to respond... Well...that's your opinion, which I respect. Mine is that I love the game. Could there be Improvements? Jes, Jes indeed. But there are also good parts. The thing is that Bungie made it, the architects of Halo. So when you hear that Bungie is involved in something, people's expectations kinda go up. Like way up. You expect the a hybrid incarnation of badass and a pinch of guns blazing. And maybe we as the gamers set our bar to high. Or, maybe, Bungie is yet to meet this expectation. We'll see in due time. In my opinion at least. Thanks for reading, reply if you wish.

Edited by Jeronas: 9/14/2014 10:03:47 AMThere is a difference in giving contructive feedback and just trolling and raging, like the most do! Acting like entitled little children that want everything handed over to them on a silver platter. Bungie holding their hand. Most of the complaints here are just ignorant rants out of rage! People that hyped themselves up into the high heavens and developed unrealistc expectations Bungie would never have been able to fullfil anway. No matter what they do. The exact same thing happened with SW:TOR and while the game was incredibly fun to play with tons of content, very good story and unique for each of the many classes. All People did was focussing on the negatives and rage the game into the ground. Whining all day. Destiny is definitely not Perfect. There are issues. There are shortcommings. But at it's core it's an incredibly fun game to play. 5 days later I am still having a blast. All it comes to right now, how fast Bungie will be able to address some of the most Critical issues.

Gather your own opinion instead of getting other peoples and making it your own, you haven't even played the game.. lol.
-
I find it fun, and so do millions of other people. If you don't like it, that's fine, but you don't have to make it your goal to "prove us wrong" about us finding it fun.

This is the best post I've read on this forum.

Edited by bcapers12: 9/14/2014 9:12:29 PMI have yet to see a good defense of this game, and this is coming from somebody who likes it.
