This was a rant post I made a few months back calling out the people complaining about Year 1 legendaries not ascending into Year 2 quality. It became quite popular, with many criticizing me for calling Destiny an "MMO". Whatever you think it is, it was never the intended point of the thread, but quickly became it. I shut the post down due to how each side would viciously attack each-other, and how it just got annoying after a while.
It seems I was right about some things, and wrong about others in the end. About a couple weeks after my post, the first livestream for TTK revealed Exotic Blueprints, and how not all Exotics would ascend into Year 2 (Though it still seems to be up in the air if they will ascend eventually, but until then R.I.P MIDA)
I also said it wouldn't really matter, as the legendaries would be replaced with better guns. I think I was right on that one, as I am loving the style and capability of these new guns, although I know some would probably think the opposite.
The new additions in TTK are a mixed bag for me in total, but overall I think the good outweighs the bad.
In the end, I really enjoy TTK, and I'm glad that fan attitude towards no Year 1 legendaries going in didn't destroy the community attitude. The guns are great, the story is great, the soundtrack is great, and the overall experience is great. I'm glad Bungie put all their effort into this and really delivered an experience worth the price of admission.
Hopefully this post dies.
But after the constant necrobumps over the last couple months, I doubt it.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand Bungie adds microtransactions.
In the same day.
Well.

1 AntwortenBearbeitet von csquidy: 8/7/2015 12:37:32 AMIt would be acceptable if I didn't pay to have most year one weapons, but that 35$ is down the drain, a money ball put in a arcade game booth. But anyways, Massive multiplayer online Max players for fireteam: 6 That's pretty massive if you ask a fcking retard "guys it's a MMO it has RNG in et"

4 AntwortenI agree, but: Destiny is not an MMO. It is far too limited and closed off to be an MMO, it also lacks many features of an MMO such as trading, in game recruitment features, in game lore etc.

20 AntwortenLet me say this. MMO is the wrong term to use. Instead use the term RPG as that is more in line of it. Level up, get gear, level up, replace gear, etc.

3 AntwortenIn every other mmo I have played new content = new and better weapons and armour that people can't wait to get to replace their old gear. Thus falls down in destiny, with a few exceptions the original gear is better than the stuff we got with the dark below and I have yet to see anything interesting from the house of wolves, okay so I have not been to the lighthouse but the poe weapons and armour are universally crap.

I agree. If exotics can be ascended then I'm happy.

Of course bungie won't call it an mmo. We would expect to much.

Then they bring about a way to ascend yr 1 weapons at a later date because the experiment backfires but its to late everyone already deleted there fatebringer Nooooo!!!

I like your bullet point structure that addresses everyone's common issues. Well done.

3 AntwortenBearbeitet von wilt: 8/7/2015 3:47:00 AMI understand weapons, don't get me wrong. But I will be sad about not being able to wear old armor once it becomes vintage. With the limited customization options present, it's practically a sin. (Unless TTK has a ton of new armors, which I am doubt of given their "recycled model" track record.)
