Sorry but I can see this as the only way for Bungie to save this game. We have all paid for what most have come to think of as a Beta of what we thought and were promised. We are then meant to sit around and wait for a Dlc which cost about he same as the game itself. That's meant to make people happy? Now I don't care if you are a Ps fan boy or and Xbox gamer (joke), none of us deserve to have to fork out more money for a full game. So due to this I think we should get a free DLC from Bungie with an apology for selling us a Beta not the full game. This free DLC/patch should redo the story, making it worthy of the people that brought us Halo. Proper cut scenes that tell a true story, maybe even a twist in there. The Awoken queen recognising your race and responding to you appropriately, not just calling you "it". None of that "I'll explain later" rubbish, a real story that gets to your soul. Bungie owe it to themselves to grip us with a real first episode, to a game that is meant to be around for 10 years.
If you agree please comment so Bungie/Activison [u]might[/u] take notice.
[b]Just to make this clear, I am asking for the story to be fixed. Not multi player maps, guns or anything that shouldn't be in the game we all bought. The story that was cut and we all saw was in the game before the cuts. That can only come as a free DLC or patch, if that's a better word for people. However it has to fix the nonsensical story, that is not what is advertised on the back of the case. Please read the case, "[u]rich cinematic story telling[/u]". That is what we thought we had bought, that is what we should have. Hope that makes things clear for some that think anyone that agrees wants some kind of hand out. As we don't, we just want what we paid for. A story driven game, not a watered down version of what was touted.[/b]
I do have theory why the story is so bad and nondescript. My theory is that it was written by deej. You know the guy that gives nondescript answers to every question? That's all I can think of as to why the story is so bad, it's deej's fault. As it can't be Bungie can it? They brought us the original Halo and the emotional Halo Reach, remember the end of that? Truly an amazing ending, Bungie did that. They couldn't of written this Destiny tripe. Seriously watch this....

This is more gripping than the whole of destiny.[b][u] So basically Bungie advertised a roast dinner with all the trimmings and gave us a pot noodle instead.[/u][/b]

I personally love the part where he talks about Destiny not being a MMO, it's more of story driven.
Edit - changed title as even though I explain what I was asking for, some seem to be confused.

Edited by DaKerrbare: 10/4/2014 7:27:25 PMAs much as I would absolutely LOVE for this to happen, it won't. Here's why: 1) Bungie is a business, and businesses need profit. DLC is additional incoming profit for the company, and ensures that there will be long-term players to keep the profits coming. The DLC sales that launched on release day is also a known profit-gimmick, and usually accounts to about half of all DLC purchases. 2) Due to laws associated with video games, it is really, REALLY hard to refund consumers for digital data. There are so many laws in place to even be able to trade in physical copies of games to prevent fraud and copyright issues. Without physical content, it's near-impossible to be able to return DLC. 3) The money you gave for the full game helped pay for all the people who worked on it. Granted, the ratio between the quality of the game versus what we paid for is /horribly/ skewed, it all comes down to the fact that there were people behind the game that did come out, and they ought to be compensated for their time. So if you're really not satisfied with the game, then I highly recommend trading it in so you don't have as much loss on it as you will in another month or two. Free DLC will just never happen. Now what /can/ be done is either consistent tweaks of maps through updates, or just bigger DLC that will fill in all the little gaps we need. For instance, in order to minimize putting players through non-stop runs of the same maps, the folks of Diablo III added different textures/weather mapping to the current maps to provide different experiences. This is easily something Bungie can do to cut down the feeling of repetitiveness at least a tiny bit more.
