Is this true? Did you bot scam views
7000 comments but 18 million views? 🤔 Seems kind of sketchy 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1 ReplyEdited by Milk: 6/19/2023 8:53:19 PMSo when a streamer trashes Bungie we listen, but when a streamer doesn't trash Bungie "we hate streamers"? I don't really care about any of this, I just want consistent behavior from people.

3 RepliesOh wow. No, Bungie wouldn’t do thaaaat. They definitely wouldn’t throttle xp, rig rng, copy and paste content, and absolutely would not lie to us. Nooo guys…come oooon.

Edited by Lumis: 6/20/2023 11:53:23 PMTo put that into perspective: [url=https://youtu.be/ZJLAJVmggt0]Destiny 2 "Rally the Troops" Worldwide Reveal trailer[/url] 14m views in 6 years. (The most viewed video on the official Destiny 2 YouTube channel.) 183k likes. 26k comments.

There are some explanation like this video is used as an add or it plays on Bungie's site, but some D2 videos are like this as well and they don't have the same views, quite sketchy
-
20 RepliesPve guys are so upset bungie is moving on from Destiny 🤣 I’m glad they focusing on what they did best which is multiplayer
-
Bungie throttling something to promote exposure??! Surely not?!
-
I mean report it if you think it is. Youtube generally cares more about view botting than almost anything else and will delete the video if they do find it is view botting. And we've seen that Youtube isn't exactly friends with Bungie or Sony.
-
15 RepliesI’m pretty sure they all do it 🤷♂️ I’d bet money on it anyways. I rarely believe anything in the internet, it’s always good to research things…everything.
-
3 RepliesI mean what would they really gain from doing it? Botted views don’t really equate to sales or pre sales or even interest in the game. Also wasn’t that video used as an ad? Or am I mis remembering
-
Edited by Merx: 6/19/2023 10:04:26 PMIt's because it's been an ad, and the ad views also add views the original video.
-
It’s an ad. So whenever you boot up a YT vid and see the marathon ad it counts towards the views. I might also be wrong and if I am that’s pretty cruddy of bungo.
-
Wouldn't be surprised at this point if it was true. Bungie already crossed the greedy line.
-
That's what those bot accounts that message everyone for paid carries are being used for.
-
Bungie is banking on Marathon hard… in usual fashion their new developers lack originality… so like destiny they will take over an existing IP, absolutely destroy it and then call you a bigot or say you don’t get it when you trash it…. The highschool mentality the company has adapted to is hilarious. Constructive criticism, get on board with it you hacks.

Is that Stern? Riiiight.

1 ReplyDo you know how YouTube monetization works? Please don’t believe everything you see on the internet.

Edited by max: 6/20/2023 8:17:58 AMI'm guessing they desperately deployed the trailer in serval hundreds of -blam!- websites which obviously can't receive comments Even then this ratio makes no sense, and I don't believe it's just the views they bot scammed, if you look at the comment section under official trailer, they are all generic positive sentences with zero indication any of the commenters ever played a Bungie game
-
It could be even worse than paying for bot views, it could actually simply be 18mln people who just don’t give a poop about commenting over a guardian running with music. Like what the heck is this video? Utter trash. The ego level of Bungie and their teams to think that they can hype multi cellular organisms with a video of a guardian running.
-
8 RepliesSo for some reason the video won't play for me, but I'm guessing that it's the Marathon trailer that you're talking about? I'm guessing that it's because the YT video is being embedded as an ad on some websites and so most of the viewers aren't interacting with the video. The discrepancy between views and comments isn't that strange. Especially for trailers which are being embedded as ads. The only example I can think of is actually really similar in numbers, the new Hunger Games movie, the trailer was released 3 weeks ago, has 18 million views and only 9k comments. The Starfield teaser is [i]much [/i]more anticipated, has 17 million views and has 15k comments, but the video came out two years ago... So nah, Bungie might be sketchy, but these numbers aren't that odd.
-
Definitely not buying marathon lol
-
Not really they probably advertise it lot in YouTube in some countries
-
Kind of? 😂
-
That's just because the majority of people watching Destiny videos on YT are kids watching on Restricted Mode from a monitored iPad.

Edited by DragonKnight901: 6/19/2023 10:21:54 PMNothing surprises me anymore when things like this show up. Edit: god I can’t even get my words right today XD
