Bungie, you guys teased us with this game for years - talked off and on after Halo 3 about how you guys had something "big" in the works.
You dangled that proverbial carrot by refusing to call the game an MMO, but insisting it had elements of an ever-changing environment, an in-depth loot system, and activities that would keep us busy over the projected [b]10 year life cycle[/b] (that you insisted it had).
I have played this game since day one. I have dumped over 500 hours into this thing, and honestly, I don't think I can boot up the game again. The absolute monotony of this game has left a bad taste in my mouth, and I seriously doubt there is anything you can do at this point to remedy such a problem. I had hoped your "[b]expansion[/b]" (if you can call unlocking core title sections you guys gutted prior to release an "expansion") would pump some new, actual life into these snoorefest, but instead all you have done is perpetuate the same paradigm of grind, grind, and more grind.
Let's take a look at what your [b]8 years[/b] gave us:
1.) 6 strike missions (7 on the PSN) that we get to play over and over...and over...and over again every week.
2.) Two raids that you insist we replay every week based on [b]your[/b] intended style (i.e. no cheesing guys!).
3.) A loot system that is based around luck - no skill involved whatsoever.
4.) A narrow range of useable weapons, with a broad range of useless crap.
5.) Several different economic systems that you just mashed together and hoped would make some kind of sense.
6.) A Character Creation function that is absolutely useless (oh boy! I can see my face in the tower! <--- SARCASM!)
7.) An armor paradigm that eventually makes everyone like the ninja sprite from Mortal Kombat (Sub Zero is just Scorpion with a blue tint people!)
8.) Ships that serve as loading screens only
9.) Bounties, dailies and weekly events that we have all done ad nauseam
10.) Still waiting on that actual story...
I remember, back in 2001, when I got my copy of Halo: CE. I had never been a big fan of FPS's, but that game changed my opinion overnight - I played the crap out of Halo, and Halo 2 was my first day 1 purchase ever (I have been gaming for awhile). Halo 3 was my first pre-order ever. Your company set the pace for my gaming decisions (specifically consoles) for over a decade, and when I first heard about Destiny, all I could think was "They are going to make lightning strike twice!"
I can not believe I was so very, very wrong.
I got my Flawless Raider, despite your refusal to address [b]Host Connection Issues[/b] with the VoG. And now you guys fix a [b]Host Connection Issue[/b] in the CE? Nice job, wankers.
Oh, whats that? You have the House of Wolves slated for March? Everyone will be able to jump to level 33 overnight? New raid for 32's only? New exotics and legendaries you guys will nerf after a few weeks when too many PvP crybabies come running to you to mend all their butthurt in the crucible?
Yeah, no thanks.
As for that [b]10 year life cycle[/b], I already see you guys discussing Destiny 2. You haven't even finished handing out the bits of this game that you cut up prior to release, and you already want to start promoting a second one? So much for that 10 years, you corporate pigs.
I don't know about anyone else, but I am not opening my wallet for Bungie again - should have known better when I saw that name "Activision" on this title, but I gave you guys the benefit of the doubt. Then you had to crap all over us. Good job.

1 返信Sadly I agree with all of this except for one point... Bungie has a ten year plan for the Destiny [i][u]franchise[/u][/i] not a single game.

Will people stop going on about the repetitive nature of Destiny, every game is repetitive. I played Call of Duty last generation, and the only two game modes I played were Team Deathmatch, and Hardcore Search. Destiny has a lot more to offer than that, A LOT MORE.

1 返信First of all they are piecing out the main game in paid dlc. The plan seems to be small Crota's end size dlc every 3 months to reset grinding for max gear. Comet, the big dlc released around the 1 yr mark of the launch. Probably nothing major after that than the whole thing starts all over again with destiny 2.

Destiny was intended to have (about) 4 games since the very beginning. I believe this information was available for at least a while before the game was released. They did state however that the WORLD would last 10 years. Like the Elder-scrolls, every game was a different game but all took place in the same universe. (I am in no way saying destiny is like skyrim because that is not true but just using it as an example of how sequels work).
-
This is why people should stop preordering and make them work for our money instead of handing them millions for a game we haven't even touched or seen outside the bllshit dev videos, 2k14 the year of game -blam!-ups

We need to out smart Bungie. Know that we basically know they're path with things being released like "comet" and things that are actually real expansions (not this small DLC nonsense) we should just wait it out for those and wait for the sequels.

16 通の返信And this is where I call you out, and every other idiot out there that stood around for god knows how long shooting into a stupid hole trying to game the RNG. It's YOUR fault, not Bungie's that you're bored with this game. It's your COMPLETELY unrealistic expectations that have ruined your experience with this game. You heard me. I guess I've been gaming long enough (NES was my first system) to appreciate a solid title when I play one. Perfect? No. But I can confidently say that future installments, whether DLC or sequels will only improve on the solid foundation that is this game. Every time I read one of these posts my eyes roll so hard I feel like I'm going to detach my optic nerve bundle. If you are dissatisfied, THEN MOVE ON and leave the forums alone. I'm so tired of this kind of garbage clogging the message boards. Sincerely, One of the Quiet Majority. #feedback #deej

I completely agree 100%. Well written and well stated. Unfortunately it is absolutely nothing that Bungie hasn't heard a million times before from not only their customers but just about every single game journalist and reviewer out there. They just DO NOT CARE !!! They made their millions and could careless if anyone has fun or not. Just as long as you play the way they tell you and don't cheese and shut up and drink the Kool Aid.

I completely agree man and to the people who comment and defend this game.What?? YOU PEOPLE spent less hours then I did,Ive been playing this game since the alpha! I defended this game to the fullest then I got what we called an incomplete game,I bought the season pass after the release. I really thought this was going to be an amazing game but the bosses...they shouldve been mini bosses if their giant versions of the normal enemy. Metroid prime did this no? If you guys haven't played that game you would see that you get multiple giant versions of a little guy.Now don't assume Im comparing it to a nintendo game completely here.That's on THE BOSS. See throughout the game Ive enjoyed it quite a bit,I explored everything in destiny and questioned why there was a downstairs in the bottom of the ship and that back area.Want to know what was explained? Just dlc that was there to complete a few more missions.LIKE LITERALLY NOTHING. The RNG is the most foolish idea Ive ever seen,Never have I been so frustrated to stupid things when playing nightfall only receiving 6 COINS!! My friend's also get frustrated because they barely get exotics,terrible TERRIBLE idea. Exotics,remember when they said you'll be able to tell stories? YEP story is just saying "got it from xur" Ive said this once and I'll say it again,limit it to places where you can only get exclusively to raids,nightfalls and xur.Otherwise that's all people wait for. The leveling up system: GARBAGE,Absolute trash! I hate having to look like everyone else's character leveling up,why not allow me to change how I look for a certain amount of glimmer? You have a few merchants in the tower that are completely useless! It may be something off of diablo 3 but JUST do something like that already! I also hate that I have to wear certain armor with "light" in order to become the level I need to be to enter raids.I've spent so long at grinding to buy stuff off of merchants JUST to become level 31.Now I have to do it again? To BECOME level 32?? No. Level caps: oh BOY! I BET YOU the people who play this game? Or still defend it?? Stop playing once they've reached 100 and 100 on both crucible and vanguard marks.Why? Because their limited and ALSO the farthest you can go on holding marks is 200 for each.It's crying out "IM LIMITING YOU ON YOUR GRINDING" Daily strikes Weekly strikes nightfall strikes: AGAIN with the limits on grinding,why cant I just do them over and over? Just put it as a regular mission in the game instead of just doing it once then you cant do anything till next day/week! Raids: Let me say this first,I love the raids their really fun to do.I love playing with random people and see how it's frustrating sometimes to solve something or how teamwork goes in this game.Most UNIQUE thing out of the game.Now..for the two problems...RNG....and You can only do it once per week (three if you have one of every character) you people do not understand..how frustrating that is especially to people who get shards only or when they do want those shards(or radiant shards) they get the same damn weapon over and over.The limit to grinding is just a terrible TERRIBLE idea.RNG wouldnt be so bad if the grinding wasnt limited. Pvp: i love pvp as much as I love pve,hate xur though because everyone uses the newly purchased weapons they buy from him on xur and that's all everyone uses. Ships and sparrows: useless so far,waiting for future things to fix those two.Those two things are there to look pretty though. Yes my expectations were really high but see everyone THIS is my reason to why I stopped playing this garbage.Dont get me started on the story either because I can rip a whole new hole on that one.Most of you people never will understand the hours i spent reading on this game,the enemy factions,the story,the stages,the factions(dead orbit,future war cult and such),the plot twist(people dont know this until they have read the article), the archeon story,the enemies of the darkness (true fact: servitors for fallen,shriekers for hive,minotaurs for Vex,and psions for cabal.These guys are part of the darkness.If you look that their purple you would understand.) While this game is QUITE addicting you have yet to find out why many people hate this game.Please tell me who IS the stranger? Who are the factions? Who are the enemy factions? Who are WE? How did we die? Did you also know there's another archeon that won't be shown until house of the wolves? Why was the original story removed where they show crow(queen's brother) in a cutscene on earth?? Why was the reef hub world removed? Give me a LEGIT response to that to see if you've been on this game as much as I have at LAUNCH.

5 通の返信Good game. Put a lot of hours into it and got a ridiculous amount of entertainment out of it. Sure, it needs fixes here and there. But no game is perfect at launch.

I completely agree. I couldn't have worded it better myself. The tedious bounties which are recycled every 3 days (vanguard, crucible and Eris morns), the ridiculous daily missions which every player worth his salt has done about 50 times and the day after you've done that daily mission, it comes up as a bounty (wtf!!). The way they patch some things but not most others which really need patching, and then the patch that they have done is riddled with bugs itself anyway, so one step forward, and then 5 steps back. The fact that there's a crucible map on Mercury (which I might add looks absolutely amazing!) but there isn't a planet Mercury in the story (even though your ghost explains to u that Mercury has been turned into a machine world by the vex, which indicates to me that there's an even harder vex boss on Mercury). The way that some enemies (phalanxes and stealth vandals for me) melee u which sends u flying half way across the map, and if there's a wall or a rock in the way then the impact of the hit will kill you (so frustrating if your doing the missions solo). The feeling of being lost with the stupid mundane storyline, like who the hell is that female exo person who randomly shows up a couple of times and gives u a crap pulse rifle for beating the black heart? Where did the traveler come from? What is the traveller? Is it a god or what? What's happened after you've beaten the black heart? Another thing that annoys me is the laziness in the creativity of the so called 'bosses'. Like crota for example, let's have it right he's just a big glowing sword of crota, all of their faces are exactly the same if u look carefully. Omnigull is a wizard with blue eyes. Aksor the archon priest is an oversized captain with a different helmet. The undying mind is basically the nexus's grandad. The only one I'd say is a little bit different is atheon, but then again he's just an oversized chrome plated version of a fanatic. And Bracus Ta'arc is an overweight legionary with fancy armour! Where is the creativity in this? Even the ogres all look exactly the same, the might of crota, phogoth and telgoth! I'm not going to be one of these idiots who rage quits destiny because other than some small issues its a really good game and I do enjoy it, and it is the first game in the series anyway. Well I won't go on anymore because I'll only get trolled and it's evident that bungie never check these threads anyway. I just really hope they pull there fingers out of their a$$es and give us the game we were promised! Because after all they have created an amazing platform for a game, it just hasn't been fully utilised yet

I agree with you that this game is so boring now I only log on maybe twice a week and only for a few hours before I would log on everyday and play for hours now I am just waiting for the next game to buy I am thinking dying light but I should focus on school and not this game
