This is gonna be a long one. So sit tight. Destiny was supposed to an open vast world MMOFPSRPG spanning Earth, The Moon, Venus, Mars, Mercury and Saturn, the playable zones were supposed to be comparable to that of oblivion, or at least close. Your experience was supposed to be solo, or if you found yourself in a jam, you could invite your friends to take some of the weight off you where ever you were, or they could just drop in on you in surprise and enjoy cooperative play for a time, and meet in social areas around the solar system, filled with guardians who show off their gear, like the fate of all fools, or the cludgel of Xanthar. You were humanities last hope to restore the light, reclaim everything human has lost, and become a legend strong enough to take down the gods of darkness... This is what destiny looked like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBNdrJMwrkc&t=610s This is what destiny was going to feel like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_jRQBGKPaA&t=1s And this is what we got in its stead because of activi$ion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHVtZsCZ1TA&t=3s Destiny's Guardians never had subclasses, we held both of our major powers as one supreme character. A warlock able to control the field and burn his foes with the solar grenade, and to take out major foes with the nova grenade, A hunter who's accuracy with the golden gun could down numerous foes, and cut down mobs with the arc blade, and the titan who defended his team with the ward of dawn and knock down crowds with the fist of havoc, along with this, classes were given specific special weapons. The Hunters were given the snipers, the Warlocks, the hand cannons (They were special weapons!) and the titans, shotguns. Swords and sidearms were never in the game because they were made to prolong this beta. Bosses were supposed to drop the most awesome of loot, ranging from standard gear, to exotics if they were hiding one... Public events were the only time when other guardians could jump into your world, and help you complete the event for sweet loot and experience. Destiny never had future war cult, Dead orbit, New monarchy. Destiny had the Concordat (Led by Lysander), The Disciples of Osiris (Led by...well...Osiris), and The Vanguard (Led by the speaker). Each Guardian picked a faction to follow its lead and pursue its goal with faction wars against your foes. The guardians were supposed to pursue the old kingdoms we once had, like chicago, russia, antarctica, the Ishtar Collective, Freehold, The Caloris Basin and fields of glass on mercury and ??? On Saturn. Establish towns and defend them while expelling the source of the darkness, restoring order to our golden age... The crucible was never an aspect in this game until 2 months before the alpha of the beta came out. What we have now, is a sad, very F*CKING SAD, excuse for a 160 dollar 3 year long ignored beta! It has become increasingly clear ever since the festival of the cost 2015, that bungie is laughing at this community and just doing what little they can get away with until they decide to release what I listed above as the sequel... Many other game titles have done this very strategy, look at Overwatch, Titanfall, No mans sky, Ark Survival, and Warframe. Release such a subpar piece of sh*t of an initial title, market off their guilt and hope and release the real content later when they've gotte back what they invested. Looking at the Trailers for... The April Update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTa1QSfymMY Festival Of the Lost 2016: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYW3oMzWQZg The Dawning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFupqkY8Q8w They are laughing at us, expecting us to buy more and more of the pay to win the stuff they show (Which is pay to win, which even luke smith said the silver wouldn't be...) and are showing increasingly by each event that they are caring less and less because the company has given up on the destiny 1: The beta... But the light at the end of the tunnel? They haven't given up on the franchise, they gave up on the beta, yes...they stopped caring. But they know, the sequel is their only chance to make the game we all expected, after hiring vicarious visions and high moon studios with activi$ions business planning, while looking for all new narrative directors, they have infinite potential to create the game we all knew and wanted... Just wait and play Mass Effect: Andromeda until destiny 2 comes... if what I said was true? Then we will finally get destiny... Veneficus, Out.
