I have a few theories on the Destiny fanboys:
A: They are Bungie fanboys who likely started liking them by playing lolReach. To them, Reacharound was an amazing game with excellent mechanics like Bloom and Armor Lock which should be carried over to their new game.
B: They are Playstation fanboys who heard about how good the Halo games are (except Reach, though they don't know that it sucked) but could never play them. Now that Destiny is multiplat, and heavily biasing Sony at that, they are excited to finally play a Bungie game. Unfortunately, they will be disappointed, as this game will be as mediocre as lolReach.
Just my theories. What do you guys think?
-
Or they started with ce and believed the company could thrive of good game except reach

Look at all the mad people ITT

I... I.. I love you, OP. [spoiler]10/10[/spoiler]

I feel disrespected! I was watching the community at the beginning of Halo 3 and i have joined later on. I have had Halo all my life. And Reach was amazing!
-
Excuse me, Reach isn't one of the games that brought most of this amazing community (excluding no one in particular) together. Also, FYI, try trolling without speaking down to your viewers, it usually helps. (Sets explosives on bridge) He huffed and puffed and blew your bridge up. (Presses large red button) Hasta luego, or not:)

I was 2pro for r33ch so i need a new gaem to pwn, #destiny. Yoloswag 420.

Why was Reach bad? That's all I ever hear. It has bloom and had a few things in multiplayer people didn't like. Destiny looks good to me. Though we still need to see more.

I guess I'm a Destiny fanboy...but I don't meet any of your criteria. I'm 24, been playing Halo since 2002, loved Reach, and well yes I did like Armor lock.

I didn't think Reach was that bad. I never did.
-
I think there's a good chance you are a PC gamer. Just a theory
-
I never quite fully understood why Reach catches so much flak from the community. It has its issues, but so does every other game in existence.[spoiler]lolhitscan[/spoiler]

Edited by Fedezzer: 8/30/2013 5:04:32 PMI think anyone who utters the term "fanboy" deserves a hearty slap and a dictionary with which to learn some better vocabulary. And I'm guessing you don't give a hoot about anything but multiplayer (most likely you're a CoD player, if so), and if this is true, I can understand your inability to appreciate Reach. You probably hated ODST for the same reason, despite them being above standard games.
-
Well CE was my first Halo and loved all of them. Reach was a masterpiece and the best all around Halo game. I am a Destiny fan because I feel it is going to be the future of the FPS genre.

I think you're missing some chromosomes.

Just happened to notice that you're following and being followed by Prehistoric, that explains a lot.

The Thesis an Internet Troll: YA SUCK !

Well, Freud, I have a few theories about you. The fact that you made an account in order to come to a Destiny message board and use pejoratives in order to put others down says more about you than you've said about so-called fanboys.
-
Edited by Valistriant: 8/28/2013 11:46:05 PMNice to see that you're being mature about the situation and presenting facts with your dissenting opinion. I'm not dumb enough to have a well thought out argument with someone as biased as yourself so I say good day to you sir. P.S. I wish we had moderators Who would move gunk like this off the board since this clearly has nothing to do with Destiny but instead It's fanbase.

Hier kommt die Trolle, bringen die banhammer.

I was going to write a thought out comment explaining that there are far more reasonable options as to why we are excited to see what becomes of Destiny, but I'm going to choose to be the bigger person. :)

1: Halo Reach didn't suck, as it wasn't as good as the others, it was still a solid game, along with Halo 4. 2: yes, I also think that they are Halo fanboys who are butthurt on 343i so they are going with Destiny and spitting on other people. 3: I agree with everything you said about fanboyism.

Where to start here... I started playing bungie games when I was a kid, when Marathon was new. Marathon was great, and I've played every bungie game since. Reach, while definitely not the best, was still fun and quite enjoyable. Argument A null and void. While I have a PS3, I use it primarily as a gloyified blueray player. It doesnt get much playtime anymore. Ever since I was old enough to work and make money on my own, I've always bought whatever console has come out, be it nintendo, sony, microsoft, sega, etc. I am no playstation fanboy. Neither am I an xbox fanboy either. I play it more now simply because I enjoy the controller more for the games I play (most are multi-platform). Though if I had to classify myself a a platform 'fanboy', the Master Race has always been my preference. Nothing better than a mouse and keyboard. Argument B, null and void. Have you been keepin up with the develpment of this game at all? I don't really see where you are thinking this game will be weak or mediocre. It's quite a feat they've been working on. We still don't have a lot of details, but from I have seen, if they can deliver what they are promising, this game will truly be epic. So I ask you, what do you see that makes you believe anyhing of what you said? Or do you simply take pleasure in being a troll and making baseless assumptions?
-
Reach wasn't all that bad though... Coming from someone who's played all of the games.

That seems like a narrow minded generalization. Thats like saying all trolls live under a bridge...
