Why does everybody seem to think content never changes from a 2 year old gameplay vid to release? I swear I have never heard so much nerd-rage in one video. Now let's stop for a minute and think about this: Say the worst case scenario is true. Bungie really did cut final content from the game to sell it back to us for $35 more. You would be making a huge deal, spending all of this time and energy of being angry, about... $35. Seriously guys. It's $35. You can't even buy a new full game for that much. And if everything is on the DLC like the leaks show, this game will have pretty much doubled in size. Meaning you would have paid $95 for what is now one of the largest AAA console FPS games of all time. No other micro transactions, no subscription fee. Just close to 20 PvP maps, 32 story missions, 3 raids, and around 10 strikes. Why is this so upsetting to people? And that's the WORST CASE SCENARIO!!! Realistically, this stuff probably just wasn't done, or didn't work in the game, and y'all are making a huge fuss for nothing. People need to calm down and realize it's only a game, and things change. If you want to be angry about corporate greed, look at the energy corporations or the military industrial complex, not a video game company. In the meantime, all y'all are doing is making this one YouTube guy a boatload of money.

  • I'm guessing it's because the amount of content they changed in Destiny was overwhelmingly drastic. Couple that with the rumours about conflicts within the development group that may, or may not have affected the quality of the released product, and you have a justified reason to be sceptical.

  • He doesn't even have 100k views. Not only that I'm sure every sane person with a heartbeat and half a brain has Ad Blocker. This guy is making chump change.

  • If the worst is true, the point isn't $35. It's the disrespect. I can swallow that and move on to another game. Some folks can't deal with it and want to punch the disc in its face

    Give me one good example of another block buster game that showed important features and content that did not make it to the final game. Come on, just one

  • Its not that we have to spend 35$ its that they will make millions off what was supposed to not be sold as extra.

  • How do you know it was supposed to come with the game? Provide me with one, single, shred of evidence that isn't pure speculation.

  • Because it's already on the disc and people have already gotten to the areas that are going to be DLC?

  • But the areas are not even finished. There is nothing there. The only area I can think of that has enemies is the one in the rocket yard, and the enemies their aren't even named!

  • I bought Bioshock infinity for $60, finished it in about a week, and loved it. I bought the dlc pack for 35 and it took me a matter of a few days to finish that. Paid 60 for destiny and have played almost every day since launch. I had no complaints about the Bioshock experience, therfore my experience with destiny has been fantastic. I will definitely buy the dlc.

  • They are making us pay for what they've already finished and put on the disc. DLC is something created for the game after it's come out, new content, not locked off. I paid for the game, now let me have everything that comes with the game.

  • You have absolutely no proof of that. Pure speculation.

  • Oh bull crap. Have you not seen the videos of people accessing the Terminus? The glitch that showed all the DLC planned out and it's content? What about people accessing locations in the Beta?

  • Just because a location is in the game doesn't mean the content is finished. It's completely reasonable that the maps were done first, and level design such as enemy locations and and encounters were not finished. Did you not see the placeholders that didn't even have names for the missions? And no descriptions? You really think the final raid is called Reef Raid? What about the fact that it's a plan? DeeJ straight up denied that it was finished. You need to stop speculating, do some independent research on other games and the process of building them, and stick with the facts.

  • And why should I have to pay for them again to have the privilege of playing something that should have been there in the first place? And explain King's Watch, an area that is well near completion and already has enemies? I have indeed done "independent research" nor am I "speculating" if it's already in the game I should have what came with the game. This isn't "planning ahead" this is having unfinished areas you've already put in the game and plan to charge me for later.

  • How do you know, with 100% certainty, that just because the map of the area is done, the entire story mission is done? Games leave stuff on the disc that isn't finished all the time, because it makes it easier to update later. The area has a few enemies in it, with placeholder names, and no coherent layout. Go ahead and play through that "mission" and tell me how done it is. Maps can be finished without the level itself being done. This has been stated a million times. Y'all are so eager to find something to shout and scream about that you disregard facts in favor of pure speculation.

  • No, how could I be I'm not a part of the development team? However, there are for more logical explanations that are less inflammatory than that they cut it to make money. People just like to have something to complain about. Are you 100% positive they did?

  • Absolutely not. Most of us live in the grey, not black or white. Since I am not 100% on this, I understand speculation

  • Then why are you acting on the speculation like it is fact? I am acting on what logically makes sense, which is that the content was by completely finished.

  • What makes you think I'm acting on speculation like its fact? And as far as making sense, it makes a lot of sense that they couldn't make their deadline for whatever reason and cut content and gutted the story to make their deadline. Like a whole dollar worth i cents
