Deej: The truth, critical thinking, and final argument.

I have watched this video in its entirety. I realize it is long, but unlike pro Destiny/Activision rhetoric, the truth is a little more complex, and you not taking the time to understand what is going on is what they are counting on. What we have here is the ultimate anti-fanboi argument. Contained in this video is every thing we critical thinkers have been trying to express, only to be freight trained by the deluded masses. The masses: those of us who have successfully been indoctrinated by the [b]Lord of Profiteering[/b]: Activision. Why do people persist in defending what has taken place here? It could simply be lack of intelligence or the ability to critically think, but more likely it is pride: The fanboi ego cannot admit to the truths in this video, it has gone too far for him, in his mind there is no way back. Humility is not a word in his vernacular. In a world where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, we are brainwashed via corporately owned news outlets (see: Fox News, any Murdoch newspaper) to blame each other for the situation instead of looking at those in power, those with the wealth controlling every thing. Profit is increasingly becoming a dirty word. Or at least it should be. To all the nay sayers, i give you this: You have been conditioned to disagree with the rhetoric you see here. They have achieved this because they are smarter than you. Swallow your pride and open your mind. It is time to become a critical thinker, not just a consumer, with 2D personality. For a better understanding of how corporations have become so powerful Government cannot control them, and how they are shafting us in every market we participate in, i recommend a Youtube channel called "The Trews" by a critical thinker called Russel Brand (previously a comedian). Profit has now fully infected the games market, that is why $500 million buys us a gutted husk of a game such as Destiny, Watchdogs, Titanfall and others. To Deej i say (as he is apparently reading all this): please let your bosses know that we [i]know[/i] what occurred here. [b]EDIT 1:[/b] To those saying i jumped on some sort of bandwagon with this video, here i link my previous thread, some weeks old, in which i make a weak effort in tackling this subject: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/71096924/0/0 [b]EDIT 2:[/b] It's a tough challenge, trying to protect people who fight to defend the system hurting them. [b]EDIT 3: [/b]All big business is owned by the 1%. And thusly they don't care where you spend your money, as long as you do. The power of consumer choice is a lie. Pick up your Destiny box and read the back, it literally says "rich cinematic story telling". Can you see the problem there? [b]EDIT 4:[/b] Best insult received: "Also, I find your username hilariously perfect. Do you refer to your house as "The Superiority Complex"?" lel [b]Final Edit:[/b] I have just read the details of The Dark Below, and it will not fix the inherent failures of this game. They are pushing forward with this hacked up iteration of Destiny. They sold us one game, delivered another, and for better or for worse this is it now. It is a game aimed at the 12yr olds, the CoD generation, and I am out. I will boost friends in the raid only until I can trade this in for GTA V. See you Manhattan-side for The Divison, Guardians!

  • This is so far a lot of speculation. All I'm seeing is a lot of guess work really. How do you know "Old Chicago" wasn't cut and renamed into "Old Russia?" Downloading large files is an issue for people and places around the world. If they could insert some of the play area that are already on the planets we know, why not do it to prevent MASSIVE downloads later on? No doubt certain items were unnecessarily cut to be placed into expansion packs is very plausible. But to assume that Bungie could develop an expansion pack within 6 months if likely not possible. "Out here in the wild, this is how we talk." How do you know that was supposed to be in the game. That could have been an internal demonstration/example video made to experiment. Have you never heard of the "Director's Cut" in film. To think this does not happen with videogames in 2014 is a silly notion. Also, after artists, both paper and CG, are completed with their work, of course they are going to continue on what is next, including DLC ideas. Trading was scrapped by Bungie as they have already said they wanted people to get gear from the content, PvE & PvP. I stopped watching 10 mins in as all I saw was a bunch of speculation and conjecture. Simply using the word "fact" does not make everything that follows that word a fact. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That all being said, Destiny was not the game I thought it would be either. I am disappointed in many aspects of the game but as of yet, 2 months into gameplay, I am yet to get bored. I do feel your pain @superiority but I don't accept many of your opinions and "facts". Also, to think Bungie was ignorant to understand that Activision would want proper DLC is just foolish. They are big boys and understand at the end of the day everyone needs to get paid. See you StarSide brother (and The Divison-side). Alpha Threat
