Remember how good Forsaken was? Definitely preordering.

Ok, idiot, allow me to educate you. Bungie was never in charge of marketing and release schedules until the final AP pack was released. Activision forced Bungie to put everything in bundles. Activision decided what to release, when, and how for everything. Now Bungie is their own publisher and can release whatever they want. I have seen many people who wanted the Moon and Eris Morn to return. Bungie started development back in January when the split was announced, they had to wait until Activision was truly out of the picture to announce SotU's expansion. Bungie is listening, but Activision tried to keep bungie from fulfilling community requests. Stop being an jerk to the NOW self-publishing company. Deleting the "Activision Good" fantasy: "What does a Game Publisher do? A Game Publisher finances a video game’s development, handles the marketing and release of the game, and gets the returns on its sales. When you’re a Game Publisher, the games you publish can be made by an in-house staff or external Game Developers, but either way your responsibilities stay the same: You manage the business end of the gaming field. Your daily duties as a Game Publisher could include negotiating distribution deals, designing advertising campaigns, conducting market research, and clearing any licensing issues a game has. You also weigh in on the creative decisions made in the game development process. A lot of times this causes tension between you, who has a focus on market appeal, and the Game Developers, who want artistic freedom. But you write the paychecks, so your say in creative decisions usually wins out. Developers might resent this heavy-handed control, but it is very difficult to develop on a large scale without working with you. For though video gaming started out as a fairly accessible field, the increase in computer power and graphics has scaled up the man power and resources needed to produce a video game. This creates cost barriers to making it big in the mainstream market, so if Developers want their game to be a best-seller they need your resources to sustain and market their product."

I already pre ordered [spoiler]BL3[/spoiler] LEL I love how two week ago Eeeeeeeeeveryone was shitting on bungie. Now it "Ill pre order if I want", "love you bungie!", etc. You are why bungie feels they can half ass shit.

I'm about to go spend some money on Eververse right now. And I'm buying the collectors edition :) you can go play that other game that comes out in September.

Don't understand all the downvotes, this should be common sense for every single game released today, not just Destiny.

I present pleasure to bungie’s genitals. I might whine and moan about it, but I am without doubt a -blam!- for their games. Ugh.... The “blam” was a word that starts with “Slu” and ends with a very hard and triggering “T”

I have no idea why people still pre-order content from bungie. Thought they would’ve learned by now.

Sorry everyone is being an ass hat in your replies. I personally bought the digital deluxe version of Shadowkeep. Yeah I’m frustrated as hell with Bungie and the constant nerfing and ignoring important community feedback, but I feel like I more than got my money’s worth with the last season pass. Though some of the content was lame as hell, I still love Destiny and always will. You’re right though, Bungie marketed Shadowkeep in a way that made me want to buy it immediately after the Vidoc. They are evolving and moving in a direction I personally think is awesome! I’ll just hope they can deliver.

It's been my observation that when a game is taken the free to play route it's the last gasp of a dying game. Not buying anything from bungie ever again. They are great at hype and nothing else.

I can’t. I’ll be playing BL3. Maybe later when they’re giving it away.
