So I'm genuinely skeptical of Bungie now...
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g79dWuqXe5o
Really eye-opening video by Gamespot's Danny O'Dwyer running deep into the addictive traits of Destiny. I'll be honest, the entire time I watched this I just couldn't stop agreeing with him.
The sad thing is I already knew it, I knew that Destiny was sucking me in with every bright flash of an exotic, every RNG nightfall drop of anticipation turning into sorrow or gratitude.
I'm scared now, scared of Bungie and what they've become; of course this kind of focuses on the 'dark' aspects of the Bungie war machine, but I suppose a lot of good has come out of it, however at what end is this to ever end? Remember that it'll continue for 10 years...
Really, I'm not going to try and reiterate what was said in the video, all very good points made backed with scientific study.
I was already on the fence for the Taken King, if anything I'm being swayed very negatively.

Edited by loonigus: 7/7/2015 7:32:15 AMOh man I dont know... I just want a more enjoyable pvp aspect since thats what makes me play. Iam used to grindy RNG games (Day 1 Daiblo 3 player and good 7 years of MMORPGs) made my skin thick if it comes to PVE grinds. I will see how No Mans Sky delivers and The Division, but so far from what Ive seen Iam not really impressed tbh... The first one seems like a mindless grind fest and is extremely overhyped and the second one looks like a DayZ meets the Last of US, which doesnt mean that its bad, but the game footage to this day wasnt really convincing at all. Imagine something like a patrol area with pvp in Destiny... Will get boring after a week. Future will show, but IF those two games live up to the hype then good bye Destiny. Another two games that might be very interesting regarding multiplayer are Metal Gear Solid 5 where you build your own base and the very underrated Uncharted pvp in the form of Uncharted 4. Bungie really has to step up their game bcoz competition is knocking on the door already.
