Tyger's apology to DeeJ and #Destiny

I'm sorry DeeJ, that you're the one faced with dealing with the backlash and anger about the husk of the game that was released. I know you and most of your colleagues didn't contribute to the awful design decisions and butchering of the game that your fanbase had fallen in love with. And I'm sorry #Destiny, that you see me as a troll or "whiner" but I'm a fan just like you. I've been a bungie fan since Halo CE. Now this video explains why the game is what it is, and why so many immature people on the website blindly defend it and worship it. Please take some time to watch it with an open mind. Then maybe you'll understand why I've tried to open all of your eyes to the atrocities that have occurred involving this games development. Just a disclaimer, it's not my video I just agree with most of it

  • I don't see how anyone can genuinely argue with the OP and the points raised in the video. I just watched it, after having previously seen links and dismissed the video as one of the many "hate on this game for x reasons" videos that are popular nowadays. But having watched, I completely agree with most of the arguments and ideas raised. There is a lot of speculation and most of it is likely very accurate, but we obviously won't know unless eventually there is some sort of official and frank statement on the matter. Which we all know is unlikely. But anyway, my main point for posting is to say that Destiny got terrible reviews and ratings for a good few reasons, and those reasons are all covered in this video and then some. It's Activision at its finest, sucking the industry dry of creative and innovative developers and games to maximise its profit margins. For the good of Bungie, they need to cut and run from this contract with Activision and get away from Destiny. That or massively overhaul things for the next game and assert themselves. There's no way that the creative minds that worked for years on Destiny can truly be proud of what the final product is. And quite honestly I think it shows. The weekly news and dev notes etc nowadays are all quite cowardly, attempting always to try and instil hope and make promises to us the gamers and is always in some apologetic tone. They're scrambling to try and grasp for players to stick around because they know they're on the back foot. Bungie has royally screwed up with Destiny. Time is only exposing that fact more and more. One of the reasons players that understand this are still sticking around is because we still want Destiny to be something of what was promised before release. But of those that haven't already moved on, we'll be going shortly. This game just hasn't got the legs as it is. If it wasn't for my clan I'd be gone already. The DLC won't be enough. They dumbed down and simplified the game, cutting and changing and locking out content in the process. It could have been so different and so much better. Activision just wanted another franchise to spread the cod fans and encompass a wider crowd. Destiny will simply be a younger brother to cod, with a bit more imagination. And I can't stand cod. So if things don't change I won't be investing in the next games.
