Thank-you Bungie (Deej, Mark Noseworthy, Luke Smith)

Deej I am writing this in the hopes that you will see it. I have been playing video games for a very long time, and that joy from playing was taken when I was injured in 2009, in a work accident which crushed my dominant right hand. The Doctors tried to save my hand but with no luck, my hand was amputated in 2012. Thinking I would never play video games ever again. I stopped playing completely, because I thought I could not play with one hand. I tried with other games and even sold my ps3 at the time, then I saw Destiny and the Ps4 and I just HAD TO HAVE IT! My Doctor told me ( you need to toughen up my stump) use your arm. I started playing Destiny in December the year Destiny came out, and I was hooked I loved the look,feel and the way the game played. Just one problem (one hand), so I started playing and after 8 months of trying different button mapping and in game settings. I was playing never thinking about the online content. But I wanted more so I kept practicing and then one day someone invited me to play a story mission. I had a blast and wanted more, more practicing and then I was invited to play in a RAID and WOW It was very hard but, a lot of fun. After 3 years I play pretty well. To make a long story short, Your game helped me sooo much THANK-YOU and everyone at Bungie! You helped bring me back from a very dark time in my life!

  • Holy hell. Congrats on your recovery - things like that can be very bad mentally, and I'm glad you found something that helps.

  • Congrats on your recovery! Get job. Just one thing..... DeeJ didn't have anything to do with making Destiny. He is just a puppet that says what he's told. Enough about him, though and sorry to sound sour! Congrats to you and your future accomplishments..

  • This bro has one hand. I have two, fully functional hands and my characters are CRAP compared to his. Kudos

    • Did you ever look at getting a custom made controller? My brother has a condition that severely limits the use of his right hand, and we actually managed to get a controller made that was designed for people who only had use of one hand. That was back in the PS2 days though, I don't know if there are companies making stuff like that. Nice post nonetheless. It's a nice change of pace from the constant whining about FPS and Dedicated Servers.

        That's awesome. But this should go in the #Community forum.
