*SPOILER ALERT* What is with the story lately??
How did you go from Final Shape, to basically a soap opera rated for mature audiences? I mean seriously an entire Epilogue quest to do the same mission again, but this time we get to hear cringy, lovey dovey conversations between Maya and Chioma. Did you just let the fanfic writers go all out in this one? Is this the kind of writing we are to expect with the coming Episodes? Or are you going to finally set this game toward a darker tone like it was always meant to be. Ffs you have such an amazing collection of lore entries that have never been touched upon and this is what you pick? You even failed to capture how dark the things Maya was doing to Chioma were, because you kept on talking about love. I don’t want the next Episode to be all about how much Crow misses Amanda Holiday, and how much he loved her. Get. Good. Writers.

The great pandering, where actual stories have died out and have been replaced by an agenda.

Lately? This is ancient at this point. If it is new to you I get it. But most people need to grow up already about it. Not in liking it if they don’t, but in either play the game or move on. Destiny the game has been bad for a long time. The story even longer.

4 RisposteThey were doing so well - the dark, twisted turn they'd taken with Maya murdering Chioma over and over and over in search of 'perfection' was getting really interesting, and mapping out a potentially great 'Predestination Paradox' storyline and then... nothing. I'm pretty sure if you look up 'anticlimactic' in the dictionary, it has a link to that cutscene. To hell with spoilers - you're doing people a favour saving them from that. Maya has a sneering villain victory moment (infused with zero peril), then 'when all seems' lost, Saint-14 discovers 'the power of love' (like a Scott Pilgrim rip-off) and takes her out with a shield throw (clearly having never used one in the game because he'd be more likely to accidentally smack Ikora in the mouth with it). Maya then melts into the radiolaria she's been comfortably standing in this whole time and we cut to a 'she's gone, but she'll be back' panoramic shot Fade to black, thanks for coming to our school play, now go run the exotic mission YET AGAIN... FFS What makes this worse is that this entire design was in place BEFORE the layoffs, so God alone knows what they'll do next...

Nah in the next episode variks comes back and he’s married taniks and they having a baby fallen and it’s gonna be kidnapped by Eramis and we have to sit through the we are in love cutscene again only with different characters superimposed over saint and Osiris.
-
Yeah I haven’t bothered to progress the seasonal story much because I’m just not interested in hearing yet again about how much Saint and Osiris are in love. I didn’t care for it when it first happened and I didn’t care any other time it appeared afterward.
-
Yea but did you know Osiris and Saint gay-love each other? Bet you didn’t.
-
9 RisposteI mean… some people did want some type of romance in this game, myself included. I feel like it’s more realistic than just being dark all the time.
-
7 RisposteApparently, you have to love this seasons storyline, or you're a bigot.
-
2 RisposteThere's a story?
-
DEI SCORE. Bungie is in Seattle they need to hit their market score. Or else the company gets less score less investments. That’s you’re story right there
-
11 RisposteMeanwhile anyone who calls out the poor excuse for a story is labeled a biggot.

iBlackCanvas"I'm good at all positions, thank you" - vecchio
*floats away Maya style* lmao -
5 RisposteThere’s nothing left to do. We killed the biggest evil and saved the universe. We have shifted into our Hallmark phase, where all stories are about the NPCs’ love lives and we just do chores to get to the next cringey bit of dialogue. “But I loved Amanda. I can’t talk about it more right now I’m too sad. Go kill 45 Vex with solar ignitions and come back. I’ll tell you about the time her hand touched mine and you can watch a cutscene of our drawings looking at each other longingly.”

1 RispondiModificato da UltraRage101: 9/12/2024 4:20:59 AMThe original action story is what people liked, love stories drive players away, this game was to be about us the guardian not side characters that we can read in a comic or characteristic card, d1 had problems with the story yes but that is what made it good there was no love stories just action stories.

If yes, can Osiris handle it safely? What about female exo? Do exo have gender fluids? Bungo, answer us!

Tbh the whole drama stuff going on is giving me the South Park episode W.T.F. - Wrestling drama type of acting lol [spoiler]That's not Wraaastling![/spoiler]
-
I have to admit I did wonder to myself, what did we do actually do here?? If we did absolutely nothing, would we have achieved the same result?? Aside from unlocking failsafe and building a little collection for her. Is there no panic that the echo of command is in the vex network? That's just one echo, where are the other 'echoes'? Maybe the other echoes are less impactful... echo of loving cheese, or echo of surreal artistry??

The funiest part about this season is nobody even knows who tf these people are because not did the vail thing on neomuna during lightfall 🤭
-
Let games be fun again
-
just let it die! if you follow what's happening with games that have a lot of 🏳️🌈 people are tired and don't buy it... have you seen Ubisoft's situation? Have you heard about Concord? I can go on for a very long time! now let's start with the positive examples of The First Descendant, Wukong that rejected sweetbaby, Stellarblade!! They all criticized these games so much that they sold out in incredible numbers and received high marks from the community who are tired of all this propaganda!! Games have always been made for entertainment and for what you can't do in real life!! just wait and make the right choice!! 🙅🏻♂️🏳️🌈

Pandering, for a '[i]modern audience[/i]'.
-
1 RispondiI’m still uninstalled and waiting for something exciting. Gay space opera and mid-armor ain’t cutting it.
-
2 RisposteI feel so bad for the Vex. This is the first time in years they've been relevant and they're stuck in a five year old's fanfic of how they think lovers interact.
-
7 RisposteAnd the exotic mission? Over and over, and over again. Now even the epilogue "Go do it again!" Enough is enough!
-
Modificato da pcln3806: 9/11/2024 2:58:10 PMI wouldn’t really call one person calling the other a monster before having their brain turned off lovey dovey but the story was pretty -blam!- Like the ending is just “oopsie daisy she got away :3” while our character just kinda sat there after magically teleporting to the start of the mission area for no reason
-
Yeah the one sided love stories are getting old, but at least this one was a little more darker and the final cutscene was pretty cool, unlike that cry baby wishy washy Osiris and Saint story
