So my dad took my Destiny CD.

It really bummed me. He says I'm addicted- I don't think so. Check my characters- am I even good enough to be addicted? I mean, it's summer vacation. If I was actually addicted I would have had max grim and al exotics and what not. Edit- for the record I bought it with my own money, and I'm 17 years old Edit 2: people saying to buy digital: it would have been smart if it wasn't that stupid. He would have taken the whole PS4... Edit 3: starting to feel old about CD. And I'm just 17. Edit 4: being maxed is super easy. You have to be a real scrub to [u]not succeed[/u] getting 3 34's. If you never tried, ok, but if you failed? Leave Edit 5: [quote]Good player does not equal addicted, now does it?[/quote] -Zoop [u][i]important note[/i][/u] I heard about my brother roaming the forums talking shit. First of all, it really wasn't me, second of all, I'd be glad if someone could send me some screenies of the conversation since he hid the posts. Thanks.

      • Anything we say is irrelevant and u wont care. Soon enough u will find out about the real world and find out for yourself what ur dad is all about.

        • I took a look at your playtime and it's honestly not that bad... A lot of people on these forums are anywhere between 500-1000 hours into this game by now, even more in many cases. You've probably just been playing it a little too much for his liking, but you're a man who paid for this product; so he shouldn't be taking it away from you. My recommendation: Ask for it back, and tell him that if he thinks you're addicted to Destiny then he should take you out more. Spend some time with the dude, take a break with some friends, but don't let him think it's because he took your disk away, because I really don't think you're an addict! (Unless you got the game like two months ago or something...) I just don't think it's right that he can take something you paid cold hard cash for; I get that you're living in his house, but still. It sounds like he's fallen victim to the media constantly spouting off about more and more teenagers getting addicted to video games. Try telling the dude to have more faith in his son! As long as you have hobbies and a job, or are going to school and you're not doing stuff like ignoring your friends and family constantly just to play, then I can't see how you could ever be considered an addict. (Again, this is based off your playtime alone, I don't know the conditions of how you play, when you play, or what you do or don't do while playing; so I could possibly be wrong. I just feel like this is a case of an overprotective parent fearing the worst and not trusting their kid.) Bonus: You also need to understand that things were very different when he was your age. Most (if not all) of the things that were readily available as entertainment/fun weren't contained in a tiny box hooked to your television, but he's probably already told you some variation of this fact!

          • Hey man, I know it sucks when this shit happens when your young. my parents were pretty douchey about video games when I was your age, always complaining I don't do enough it sucked, but they got me out of the house I got a job even then they would still complain. but it put me on the right track. I'm 34 now work full time, got my own place, 2 cars and a wonderful girlfriend (soon to be wife) who doesn't mind me playing video games as long as we spend few quality days together. Basically once you get a job and your own place you can do whatever you want, but right now you depend on your parents to pay for everything and look after you so your kinda stuck, this should give you an incentive to get out there and get a good job etc so you can be your own person and do your own things. Also dont fall out with your folks over it, I had a furious row with my mom when I left home and we never truly made up, 2 years later she was gone, It was cancer nothing they could do. and it was to late to fix our relationship all over stupid pointless things, I regret that.

          • Take some time just to hang out with your dad. He probably misses when you were 10 and wanted to go to work with him everyday and you looked up to him like he was a god. Ask him if you two can hang out. And then just talk to him. Tell him games are your hobby and hopefully he'll give your game back. Don't forget to hang out with him even if you get the game back.

          • Most people still buy physical games, so no worries there. But the fact remains that your father has the right, and in fact the duty, to teach you habits that will benefit you over the course of your life. If he sees you doing something he thinks is causing you to not live up to your potential, he should act on it. It is his way of being a GOOD FATHER. As long as you are not paying for your own living space, that's life. Be grateful your dad cares enough about your well being to take action. Games aren't going anywhere, but your youth and your summer vacation will be shorter lived than you think.
