Well. Have you seen the blood in the general forums lately? And rightly so...
I don't think many Destiny fans are happy nowadays (destiny forums, Google+, Facebook, game sites, blogs, etc...) concerning the new TTK and emotes. I, reluctantly, agree with the mob. Destiny is like a sexy yet hateful girlfriend. You love her, cater to her, and you provide her with excuses for her cray behavior. You want to be with her because she is so pretty, but you soon realize, that she isn't someone you will be able to love forever. It was fun but it might be time to break up... I don't know yet, but it might be time. I don't like the hefty price tags for minimal content. And there really isn't any better way to communicate with bungie other than our collective wallets. Maybe my expectations were sky high, but I blame the bungie hype machine. I waited 4 years to play this game. SO FAR, EVERY RELEASE HAS BEEN A LETDOWN. Don't get twisted, I enjoyed the game and expansions, I just felt disappointed each time for the seeming lack of content (especially compared to what I had seen in the past four years). I'm just gonna leave this here.
Edit:
Well, I feel like we have all been let down by this game at one point or another. Maybe some more than others. Prior to release, I think the destiny hype train had hit astronomical heights and I suppose the only option would be disappointment when many of the things we heard about and read about were not included in the initial release. Then the expansions came and many players felt that they were a bit light in content and story. Lastly, we get a glimpse into the mind of a bungie higher-up and realize our worst assumptions are quite possibly true. I really enjoy this game and will most likely continue to play. I will opt out of the $20 vanity kit and most likely wait for the reviewers opinion of TTK to make sure that I avoid being underwhelmed once again. I respect everyone's choices. Make yourself, I will do the same.

1 ReplyDude. Thank you. I have been struggling with whether or not to share my concerns with the clan. I wanted to keep it positive. But I just can't anymore. I agree with you whole heartedly. I can't justify the price tag for any of it. I wanted to love this game. I really did. Now all i can do is like it for what it is and loathe it for what it could have been. This is why you haven't been seeing me star side, Guardians. I can't support the developers. That being said. I have enjoyed my time with all of you. And i hope to see you all on Halo 5.

1 Replythat is a shame. i really appreciate what you guys have done here. i went from someone who never played social, to someone who plays it almost exclusively....because of how welcoming and non-critical you guys are! i have even been able to offer advice to others while doing raids now! thank you

1 ReplyEdited by meatjesus: 6/25/2015 4:49:12 PMCan't say l disagree with what you've said. I'm particularly disappointed with all the better weapons in HoW being tied to ToO, rather than PoE. PoE weapons are garbage compared to the old raid weapons and the ToO weapons. I think the PVP rewards being better in general is great but they didn't have to make the new PVE gear so bad in comparison. However, I was preparing to stop playing this game altogether after slogging through PoE several times with shitty randoms from LFG. Then one day l posted on these very forums that l was seeking a clan, to just have fun playing the game together. You, Mizzim, responded and l finally found exactly what I've been looking for since September of last year. This clan is full of great players who look out for each other and are willing to help anyone. It's completely changed my experience with this game, and all of you guys are why I'm still here and why I'm not going anywhere else. I'm honored to have the opportunity to run missions, raids, Crucible, Nightfalls, and PoE with each and every one of you every time l load up this game.

Edited by Mizzim: 6/26/2015 9:54:35 PMWhat you are reading on the interwebs is more than people being pissed about dlc and emotes that cost way too much (because we know we will be disappointed - we have been for each major release), what you are seeing is the "straw that broke the camel's back."

It's pretty disappointing really that these announcements are driving people away. I only played Destiny for the first time a couple of months ago, buying the bundle with the 2 expansions included for a reasonable price. At the time I imagined those who purchased them individually would be pretty annoyed with the price I got it all for, but TTK takes it to the next level.
