I don't feel like bungie is doing anything wrong to me. It's your job to educate yourself on the products you're buying. Don't expect to be babysat throughout your entire life. If you feel wronged, then leave. If enough people leave, then bungie will change their way of doing business. I'm used to paying a subscription for games like this, I'm actually saving money.

Edited by luckyguess: 11/4/2015 6:30:56 PM*whiff* Yeah, I think I'm about done here. Didn't realize I was trying to reason with Activision's ideal victim. By the way, you are paying a subscription fee or sorts. If you want to get any sensation of "beating" the game, you need to pay a fee for the next chapter every couple months.
-
Also, I realize that I'm paying something like a subscription. But people like to deny this is an MMO so I didn't feel like mentioning it. The cost of the expansions is cheaper than the subscriptions I'm used to. Also the games I play make you buy expansions on top of the subs.

The only way you're going to spark a change in a company is through their wallet. Keep that in mind at all times please. If you think they've wronged me, give me an example of how.
-
They wronged you by charging you for content that was not worth the time they spent to make it. Nearly all of TTK's weapons, armor, quests, strikes, and missions take place on areas that we have had since vanilla Destiny. Was it really that hard for them to change some colors and input certain enemy spawns into areas? Of the 600 employees and Activisions funding, you are telling me we couldn't get more content? Let me throw this analogy at you. If you see a commercial for ground beef and it is extemely healthy and organic. You are like wow I want that because it looks extemely good. At the time of purchase you are then handed a McDonald patty and a note that says the good meat hasn't arrived yet. Would you be happy? Because that is exactly what Bungie has done. Expansions should expand upon the intial game. Not use old areas and reused weapon models. If Bungie put half the effort into the actual content that Activision does trying to market the product Destiny would've been the greatest game ever. It could've been Fallout 4 with Halo mechanics.
-
That's subjective. I've more than got my money's worth out of it already and I haven't even finished the raid.
-
It is obvious by your moments and your characters that you play with no consistency. Of course it will be enough for you because you play periodically. Hell Candy Crush probably has enough content and that is free. Destiny offers around 30 hours of actual new content. The rest is grinding which does not equal content. That's fine you enjoy the game but the reality is it is lacking in many areas. It might suit your occasional play time but nearly every game invented probably would and there have been plenty of shitty games.
-
Candy Crush have microtransactions if you want to keep playing without waiting some hours to play again. I think the problem of this is if the DLCs were more cheaper maybe half of the complaints wouldnt exist, but bungie/Activision will do something to get more money, like the microtransactions but buying equip/weapons/ghosts/missions/etc, and then the users will complain about why Mothafuka~r666 have a Gallahorn v3.5 with super perks and it need to be nerfed. And if isnt by microtransaction is by monthly suscriptions and that could be a very fatal blow because not all the users can play 24/7 like others, and so... What we need all the costumers is pay for the true value of the DLCs, TDB $8 -$10, HoW $ 8-$10, TTK $12-$15, for me thats a good price.
-
Exactly. I would even say $10 for TDB AND HoW and $20-$25 for TTK. Just because patch 2.0 revamped the system doesn't mean Bungie deserves all this praise. They are fixing their broken game, since when is that praiseworthy?
-
Well i keep playing Destiny for 1 or 2 DLCs if they dont "lvl up" Destiny i think ill let it die for good.
-
True, I have a full time job. So that may be why. My point was that it's entirely subjective, not that my opinion was the correct one.
-
What you stated is a matter of opinion. I'm content with the content they gave me. I still don't have all the items and I still havent done all the content after it being out for over a month. What more do you want?
-
If you had played the game with any sort of consistency you would have already been done with the content. Grinding =\= content. Not to mention you haven't beaten Skolas, Atheon, or Crota so your opinion is obviously skewed. Have you been here since Day 1 or did you join with TTK? If so you have a while to go before you understand any points I make.
-
You're entirely missing the point. Subjectivity.
-
I joined late HoW. And I have killed Atheon multiple times. I have NTTE, so idk what you're looking at. I understand all your points fine. I've played a ton of MMO's that operate very similar to this game. I haven't gotten in a good enough group for Oryx HM yet, thats the only issue and I can only raid on weekends because I have things to do that are more important. People who complain that there is nothing to do in this game are the ones who treat it like a full time job and don't have their priorities straight.
-
Destiny forces you to play it like a chore if you want to enjoy the whole experience. The 30 hours of new content is fun but beyond that it requires endlessly grinding for whatever item you want. Games should be fun but in order to experience Destiny you have to do the same stuff so many times you end up hating it. That isn't fun. Not to mention the shitty RNG that has created elitists which help ruin the experience. The content is minimal and that is not subjective. Ask any gamer to play Destiny who has played other decent games and they will immediately agree with me. Nearly every review article states the same issues with Destiny. You don't have to take it as fact but when the majority of educated individuals agree upon something I find their points valid.

Edited by AnfieldRoad17: 11/4/2015 10:34:44 PMNearly every review? TTK has received wide acclaim. It's been incredibly well received. Hate to break it to you, but it is subjective whether you like it or not. Sure the sword quest can be repetitive, as can the crucible quests, etc. Like any MMO you have to plan out how you attack each quest. I ground out my sword bounty while I was taking care of other bounties so it didn't seem that bad. Sure that meant I couldn't get my sword immediately but I'm not an impatient person so no big deal. It's all about how you approach the game and how often you play it. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm simply saying there is no right answer here. It depends on the person.
-
It is perfectly acceptable that you enjoy Destiny. I do as well because the game plays so smoothly and feels really good. However beyond that is doesn't have much to offer. If you have ever played any Bethesda games, imagine if Destiny had half the content and story but with its current FPS mechanics. Right now the story makes very little sense in game, there is no reason why a library wasn't added that could help people learn the backstory. Bungie made a huge leap with TTK but has continued taking a few steps back as well.
-
Well Bethesda specialized in a different type of game (outside of ESO of which I'm a huge fan). To me it's apples and oranges. I love how the grimoire is set up because I'm a long time Dark Souls fanatic. Destiny could be different for sure. There are many improvements the game desperately needs. But for me and players like me it's been more than fulfilling.
-
Who are these educated individuals you're talking about? I prefer to think for myself rather than listen to some idiot rant about a game he doesn't like. I've played a lot of good games and I'm willing to bet I'm more educated, with a harder major in college than mostly everyone you were referring to. I don't take other peoples opinions as facts. Did you know Destiny is the most watched console game on twitch as well as PSN's biggest success? I think those things speak louder than anything your idols have to say. I have lots of things I can do on destiny every day I find fun. You don't always have to be grinding. Take $40 out for a night and see how long it lasts you.
