I was a heroin addict for years, something I'm not proud of but it's made me who I am nonetheless. Anyways getting dope is a very shady kind of ordeal, you never know what you're getting even though your dealer advertises the best shit around. Sometimes is way too cut and isn't at all worth the money I just gave up for it, and after complaining and receiving more at no cost, he knows he has you hooked. You wake up cold sweats and nauseous, just hoping you would die. Even though it goes against your better judgement you still pick up the phone and call the same dealer hoping maybe he got better stuff, or he will be nicer and give you a larger amount of the shitty stuff to make up for the quality. You get home, open that bag and realize after 30 mins you are again disappointed and left feeling empty as before. It's a vicious never ending cycle, where you're left hanging on by empty promises and baited to throw more money at a product that isn't worth shit but something that if done right is something that I loved. Bungie is now my dope dealer, I'm left hanging on by promises of a beautiful immersing world that will last for 10+ years, only to wake up in cold sweats because of the money, time, and patience I've lost due to the scam this game has pulled on me. I crave an MMORPG, I lived for runescape, WOW, guild wars, shit even wizards 101, anything I could get my hands on and level up feeling a sense of accomplishment. I love the feeling of slaying monsters, upgrading my character, and then slaying more intense and tougher monsters. I live for the thrill of talking shit to a player on opposing teams and then Ganking them pvp style. Those are the reasons I still play destiny, even though it might be heroin with way too much cut, I still can't get over my cravings for a game that has atkeast some rpg elements (even if very loosely) but Bungie one day a new drug dealer will move into town, they will have good dope, just as advertised, and you'll end up getting your Maserati repoed because you lost you clientele because you're too cheap to stop cutting your dope with baby laxatives.

  • Very eloquent way to describe the possible future for this game if they don't change their actions. On a side note I'm actually a counselor in real life and want to commend you for getting off that crap it takes a person with a shit ton of determination to get off, much less stay off heroin. I'm honestly not sure there is a more addictive drug on the planet, much less a more painful withdraw process. Stay strong and if it helps remember its not how many times you fall down but how many times you get back up that defines who you are.

  • Thanks for that sir, I do appreciate that. I agree with the no more addictive substance on the planet, as for withdrawals, Us Heroin addicts would wish we were dead but would never die from withdrawal, alcohol on the ther hand would kill you if bad enough. But again thanks man, a huge support system is more important in recovery then anything, even if it's through cyber space
