I understand there is some animosity to this topic. Entitlement, fanaticism for ones home platform, and flaming on the issues of stuck up gamers. All things I see when when this topic is 8rought up.
I ask that you set aside those things for a second and answer honestly, why or why not should this game come to PC. I am willing to read and accept any opinion on the matter. Here is mine to start us off
I am of the opinion that I like games, and I like to play them conforta8ly. I don't care where that might, either PC, X8ox, or PS. I am primarily a PC gamer for many reasons. I have a decent rig, not the 8est 8y any standards, 8ut sufficient for the purpose. PC is also the largest platform for the indies I so dearly enjoy. I also enjoy a couple MMO titles that are not availia8le to the consoles.
,8ut the one and most defining factor of why I prefer PC is that I prefer the key8oard and mouse as a control setup. I play a lot of FPS and the mouse is o8jectively 8etter for aiming a weapon in one of these games. Not to say the controller is impossi8le to use, 8ut the mouse is 8etter for the purpose and is incredi8ly conforta8le for me, which is the important part. I have played FPS long enough on PC that useing a controller with one is so unwieldy that I cannot play. I have avoided purchasing FPS titles 8ecause of this. I just cannot do it, and I know of people who can whoop my 8utt with that controller even with my mouse. It is my preferred control scheme and is most conforta8le to me to the point of making it incredi8ly unconforta8le to play with a controller.
I will pro8a8ly hold 8ack on my money until this game is confirmed for PC for this fact. I am incredi8ly hyped for this game and that is a painful thought that me and many others would not 8e a8le to enjoy this game for a simple thing such as this.
Thank you for your time and I hope to read some interesting opinions on the matter. Please keep it as flame free as possi8le.

Edited by Scienta: 6/15/2013 5:06:29 AMFour consoles to port to is a lot, not mentioning the added difficultly of the things mentioned 8y Birdman. I am leaning toward later, 8ut why should PC get shafted though? Last gen consoles could wait a little 8it, 8ut why should they get shafted too. It is a difficult situation.

Bungie and activision want to make money. games are too easily pirated, and they aren't designed for pc, so it cost a lot of money to make a pc version. If they don't think they're going to make more money than they'll invest they won't do it. So no to destiny on pc.
-
I'm not getting a next gen and I don't want to play Destiny on a 9 year old console
-
I actually wanted Destiny is on PC, but, usually, even less people can buy a PC good enough/ purposed for gaming only, for example, is me.. and those people can only buy consoles, if you ask why you buy console instead upgrading PC, well, the PC will full of my little sis's stupid game....
-
I will not be playing Destiny on PC, but rather probably the PS4. However I vote yes on Destiny being for PC so more people can enjoy it and Bungie has more customers. I see no reason for voting no.
-
For me it's all about visuals and updates. PC games look better and normally get more updates.
-
I hope they do one, I probably won't be playing on PC, atleast probably not for the 1st Destiny game, but I want the people who only have a PC to play games with to enjoy the game.

I hope it doesn't come to PC so people like you can suffer
-
I am a PC gamer personally and this is the system my friends and I game on. To have this game, which looks amazing, to release on everything but the PC is truly heartbreaking. Though It's probably never going to happen I would just like to be able to get this game. I would also like console gamers to sympathize with the PC community and understand we are upset not to be able to get an incredible game.

Is your [b]B[/b] key broken or something? And OT: At release Destiny will not be on PC. It might come out on PC one year later though. And Destiny 2 will probably get a PC release.
-
I'd like it to be released on PC because I probably won't play it much otherwise.
-
I don't see why they wouldn't port it to PC. If they didn't it would seem like a wasted opportunity
-
Nah, they have TF2 and the [i]real[/i] Skyrim.
-
umm destiny on PC, hell no, its about time we got an awesome mmo JUST for consoles.

I remember somebody on yet another discussion topic mentioned a few questions I'd like to see you answer: 1) Hacking/mod prevention 2) Servers set-up and availability (who's fronting the money for that?) There were others, but because there are so many of these topics, I forgot.

You know if I could plug up my key8oard and mouse to my PS4 I would 8uy it there. Its more of a control scheme pro8lem than anything. I hate exclusives as I think wonderful games such as this should reach everyone, 8ut for me that is all that matters.

Edited by Scienta: 6/15/2013 4:37:53 AMIt would 8e nice to get some word from those who are voting they should wait. I have not thought of it much 8eyond the point that they are already deving for four consoles.

I wish for a good discussion. Please deliver or do not speak

You seem to be missing your "B" button. I'd get that fixed.
