Hear that Deej, Bungie... That silence is the sound of shrinking market share. I can only assume investors are already jumping ship. If that happens, or is happening, what happens to that $500 mil budget dedicated to the Destiny franchise.
I guess the angry voices do indeed outweigh the fandoys you were hoping could save a sinking ship.
Edit: So I've sat back after posting this to watch the waters churn. I'm impressed with the feedback, but I'm not shocked this thread got a lot of attention, positive or negative. People can bash me, the article, or the game as much as they like...point is, I didn't post it to start an argument! I posted it more or less as PSA...in the hopes the attention this thread MIGHT receive gains the attention of someone we've ALL been longing to hear from. Keep the chatter"white" coming y'all.

"Investors jumping ship"? Watching [i]Wall Street[/i] != business acumen.
-
Why are you still here? Destiny bashing is obviously a thing right now in the games media.
-
IGN are ass kissers. Their game reviews take a giant shit on every game out there besides COD. they can go to hell
-
IGN can burn in hell they give COD a 9/10 every year
-
CoD:AW-9.1(Amazing) Why do you treat it like just because they're are a gaming (company? Doesn't sound but I don't know what word to use) means that what they say is fact. It's like any other whiners here, it's just an opinion.
-
I don't believe anything IGN says. They're a bunch of COD loving gamers. Every COD game has gotten almost perfect ratings. Everything else not so much. IGN sucks.
-
Notice how that writer thinks you have to be level 28 to do Crota End. This means he barely played the dlc if at all(probably not at all). If they give advanced warfare a 9 then honestly their opinion doesn't matter much anymore. Nearly all my hardcore COD friends gave up on that game in less than a month from launch and are right back on destiny and gta.
-
Also, how come people are like... BASH GAME BASH GAME COMPLAIN COMPLAIN BASH GAME NEGATIVENESS COMPLAIN meh, 6/10.
-
Who talks like this? Who are you?
-
There's never any silence in this community with everyone bitching and whining constantly

Edited by Fisch0r: 12/19/2014 6:14:49 AMi think there is not really a Destiny hater base.even IGN dont hate this game.who would ever bring up a PRO like"same great mechanics"in a expansion review.the huge problem with Destiny is that this game has maybe a potential which could make history but it fails in terms which r unnecessary.i guess almost everyone dont want to hate it .they love the mechanics but the content is the huge problem.if Destiny would be a common game it would be great but it calls itself a MMO and thats the reason why a lot of people r freaking out and they r right. if u never played a MMO before u shouldnt critic it cuz u dont have earned enough exp. to talk about it.i dont want to count the fails cuz we all know them or read something about it.at the moment there is only a chance for Bungie if they work or talk with MMO experts and not with ones who r shooter experts.overwork every mission with story sequences,overwork the loot system and make a mix up with loot tables and RNG.make more and different bountys/quests.make not an matchmaking for the raid but a lobby for the players to write in the game(partyfinder).give strike boss fights more patterns. i know that it is very hard to do this but it is necessary.shut down the server for atleast one month to recreate everything what missed out.if u think that something like this wouldnt be good i give u an example.i play Final Fantasy 14 atm and this game was a huge fail in almost every term.the game was shut down and recreated and now its maybe one of the best MMOs every created.that was just the pve part.pvp is something different.i guess there is just a need to implement a ranking system and a prelobby system,some balancing and still a RNG reward system which refers to how good a players is(exotics just for rank 1,2,3 and maybe for players with a single game K/D 1.0 or higher).this game has a vision and we should work all together and stop talking shit.if i were part of Bungie and i would read just hate posts everyday i would be sad and down but thats not how a developer should feel.i dont know if Deej will read my post in lifetime but i would just make a moderated discussion with the fan base and the Bungie destiny team.talk about important points and delete everything what seems to be hate.lets make Destiny an 11 out of 10, Guardians ;)

They also gave a 9.0 to Halo MCC that was half broken when they reviewed it.
-
They already made their money back and then some. So I don't think they give two shits.
-
Lol, IGN is probably the worst place to get reviews from. Calls Destiny a re-hash, while CoD: AW is the same and that gets an amazing review...?
-
Because IGN is something important and relevant? Oh wait!
-
It's a good game but they gotta listen to their fans and not isolate them. Good game that could be amazing. Don't let activision tell you what to do(guess it's too late), there's a reason no one likes them.
-
I love Destiny but IGN hit it dead on I feel bad cause all them peeps who grind VOG only to get poop on that was a hoe move
-
The combat is top notch seems to be consensus for this game...well guess what, this is a game based on two things. Combat and grinding. If you like the grinding or don't mind it, then this is an excellent FPS/MMO/RPG mixture. If you hate grinding then Destiny is not for you. It's really that simple.

Edited by Angel_Soren: 12/19/2014 6:35:54 AMReviews are seriously a plague in society. Somehow people have found it acceptable to buy into the opinions of others without actually giving themselves the experience. Honestly, it's one thing to bash on a game, but if you're gonna bash on a game because someone told you it sucked, then you seriously can't think for yourself because of your lack of ability to form basic opinions. Which is probably the most basic skill anyone could ever learn.
-
IGN... Let me laugh! Destiny will get a good review the day IGN gets a check in the mail. Anyways who still thinks IGN is relevent, most of the people working there don't know much about gaming...
-
Like 3 million people log into Destiny everyday
-
Dude ign is garbage. They put a game that could run on gameboy as a game of the year. They are the hipsters of the gaming community. If it's not retro or and independent they think it's trash.
-
Wow, this is actually kind of scary, being IGN had that month of exclusive coverage and seemed a persuasive part of Destiny's marketing, ouchee
-
For one leave you loser 2 ign is the worst review site
-
Bungie has made a larger amount of money than its 500M buget, they can't care less about ign
-
too much water 7.5/10.
