People need to stop with the vocal minority argument. Loyal Destiny 1 fans are not the vocal minority. We are a large group of people who were sold a bill of goods that was not delivered. Bait and switch no doubt about it. There are many people who feel the same way that don't bother to voice their opinions. On the surface the game added some new elements that made the open world more alive. It got new people involved in the franchise and expanded on design and visuals. With that said if you cant recognize the hollow nature of this game you are the problem. 1. Story was rushed 2. Weapons are dull 3. Nerfed powers 4. Stripped endgame Now I was a "CASUAL" Destiny 1 player. I completed every raid and maxed out every character over time. I learned my roles (what I was good at) for a raid team and preformed them well. This current trash bomb of a game was not created for me. It was created for (mentioned above) the rest of the casual gaming market that Destiny 1 did not capture the minds off. As a casual player, Destiny 1 was constructed in a way that I could leave at any time and come back to a game rich with content. I get it Destiny 1 didn't get that way over night, but during vanilla the game was rich with mystery that kept people engaged in things like lore, exotic collection, and Xur. So from a casual, adult, husband, employed perspective this game was not created with Destiny 1 casuals in mind. This was a terrible attempt at refocusing the franchise to cater to publisher requests. ___________________________________________________________________________________ EDIT: I think the hardest part of modern human nature is to admit when you were wrong. Everyone has a different scale as to what they feel is right, but it takes a person who is truly tough to admit they are wrong. Bungie is no different, I'm sure in their shortsightedness they feel that the game was a success monetarily. What I would like to hear is an omission that they were wrong. This will go a long way for me and many others. Lastly, after the release of information about Activision testing a multiplayer algorithm to force the sale of micro transactions, the current news should not surprise anyone. That was the first red flag. EDIT 2: The fact that they refuse to put an exact time (a few hours, its 2pm in Chicago) on when this will be released tells me that they are in full PR damage control mode. Don't expect anything of substance, I predict a muddy water to tread through. EDIT 3: Does anyone feel the drastic price decrease of the game today is foreshadowing something that might not be what we are hoping for? Seems odd that they would have a black Friday sale then lower the price even more a week later.
