If HoW blows, is Destiny in epic fail territory?
I think they've already stepped into it personally, when they shipped a game void of an actual story.
Edit: Just because I have 3 32s doesn't make the game badass, it just means I'm thorough and have a lot of free time.

Wether or not people believe it destiny completely succeeded It's not as bad as most people like to think I'm not gonna fall into hating it just because everyone else does Same reason I enjoy the game because I didn't fall into the hype

No I'll still play because this is the first type of game Bungie has had difficulties with. They have never done an RPG before and they are still trying to get the hang of things but one thing they do know is firefight/horde mode which means we could probably experience some awesome fights when HoW drops and if not then I'll still play. Why? Because I love Bungie and believe in them. Frankly I think Bungie wanted this to be an awesome game were you could go anywhere you see. But I think Activision made Bungie spend half the budget on PvP just for it to suck ass. Bungie should have gone with a different company in my opinion but in Destiny 2 I would not doubt that we can explore wherever we want to and if we see it we can go there. This game may be sub par from where we originally thought it would be but again it's Bungies first type of RPG they are still getting the hang of it and at least they listen to the community unlike Activision.

47 RepliesLet's see. Bungie has: -Lied about the game they were delivering, claiming a grand adventure with a story and lore to rival even Star Wars and Lord of The Rings as well as a vast, explorable world with a player driven economy and persistent, 'living' worlds, instead delivering a lifeless, braindead shooter with more time locked content than a mobile game, void of story, exploration and player driven anything. -Restricted player based strategies simply because they felt that it put their 'Hardest challenge' to shame. -Catered to the Vocal community of players who only know shooters and ignored the (Previously constructive) criticism of experienced MMO players. -Forced players to play how they feel they should play, forcing players who want nothing to do with their terrible PVP design and play to participate if they want some of the more powerful items in the game. -Consistently proven that their coders can't solve a simple issue such as introducing more vault space without 'being forced to sacrifice' other features of the game. -Claimed that their game would last 10 years, and dropped their first overpriced bit of disc-locked content within the first 6 months, only to have it flop and fail miserably like the rest of the game. I could keep going, I could. The only positive points of this game are the graphics and the gameplay. They screwed the pooch with this game and have shown no signs of even caring, thanks to the vast and majestic idiocy of those people who throw money at them for this lack-luster piece of polished shit.

They're on thin ice for sure. So many players have had it with Bungie.
-
I think people will still play. As other games approach release date, some guardians will collect dust. I used to be huge into call of duty ghosts last year, now I traded it in because the game is old. Destiny will slowly loose interest. But hey, game developers know this is what happens, that's why DLCs are the new way of gaming. To continue that cash flow and keep the user playing that game. It's actually a really smart business strategy. SleeZy money grabbers that keep draining my wallet :P

Destiny failed day one when 70 percent of its player base got up to a level 27 by the end of the first two days. The first 30's were within a week. Then the DLC comes out and within 3 hours people were max level again.
-
It already was. HOW failing would just be icing on the cake.
-
I don't think so. I think Destiny is such a huge game it'll either be doing "really good" or "not bad"
-
Does epic fail territory imply the new IP of having made millions of dollars, a huge community following, and a 10 year plan with one of the largest video game publishers in the industry? Because if it does than I would very much like to epic fail on life right now.
-
I bought the witcher 3 as a "just in case" option
-
By terms of play time it in no way can be considered a failure. If you are solely speaking of story, repetitiveness, originality, glitches, nerfs etc, then you might have a point.
-
even 100 purple balls couldnt save it anymore now that raid has been cancelled

Edited by arcadecrash: 4/20/2015 2:14:38 PMI mean you played yesterday right? At what point do you feel that you will stop playing this "utter failure" for the next month so you can get back on and get your money's worth from the expansion? If you have played hundreds - thousand of hours they have clearly done a lot right with the game. Saying you paid for the game so you must get your money's worth is bs and no one with a brain actually believes that. If it is so bad why not stop and pick it back up in a month? Maybe because you like something (read a LOT) about it?
-
for a game that has this many played hours for a lot of individuals, i'd hardly see it as a fail. Did it live up to expectations? maybe not, and that is where the problem lies
-
2 RepliesIt already is falling fast. You may deny it, but at least consider the facts. 1. Ask anyone who does not play Destiny, they will tell you it's horrible. 2. Bits of the community are starting to leave, defy Bungie, hate the game. 3. The Dark Below Expansion at the moment is barely holding any players captive with content. I fear if the Arena does not have any replay value, a lot of the community will hibernate until Comet.

It won't blow it will simmer

Lol its been in epic fail territory

IF DESTINY DOES NOT ADD A WHALE DLC, DESTINY WILL BE -blam!-ED -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- FOR NOT ADDING A WHALE DLC!!
-
1 ReplyEpic fail? No way. Not living up to potential? Certainly. But Destiny was never supposed to ship "finished". It's just a slower journey towards "legend" than we all anticipated.
-
No, but if Comet doesn't considerably improve things, then it will be. I still see a lot of potential in the game, a lot of depth to the setting, etc, but it will probably always pale in comparison to what it could have been. I once heard someone refer to this game as "the worst game I have ever loved", and I think that rings true to an extent.
-
No. Many people got their money out of it. I did.

1 ReplyI have over a thousand hours (1000) i enjoy it and will for quite a while, but then again I have over if you add it all together 8 months playing SKYRIM still enjoy doing that... game's take your mind off of your troubles for a while that's all, in the end it makes no difference. Only have fun doing it....................

2 RepliesAll this game desperately needs is MORE! The play mechanics are solid, the weapons(if they ever stop nerfing them and re-buff autos) are great. Just need some cool stuff to do as i've done everything already over and over. Hope they don't keep forgetting us PVE players.
-
Yes and no. It can still be addictive and awesome. More time to master Crota's End Hard Mode until the next update.
-
Yes because of the [b]huge[/b] content gap
