Should We Sue Bungie and Activision: I Say Yes
My beef isn't that the game isn't fun it's that we were told many things about the game and even shown footage of things in the game. Those are things devs told us about and sold us on. Yet where are those? They are false promises. Where's the rest of the story the tester on Reddit talks of? More false promises. The game was supposed to have a meaty story, not be a half assed clone of different games (namely Halo), and our loot was supposed to be rewarding. But those were all lies fed to us by the spoon we trusted that was Bungie's past legacy. I think because of all these things we need to sue them as Aliens Colonial Marines was sued for its lies and false promises. I don't hate it because I'm "not happy with it" or anything these things come from things we were told and shown but never happened. Hence false advertising and misinformation at its highest.

You can't just sue them because the product didn't meet your standards. If that is how things should be handled then I need to sue every company who sells products at Walmart. Imagine you were alone in a bubble, never saw or read any hype for Destiny, and were never influenced by any reviews. You would feel entirely different about this game. Hating Destiny has become trendy, and as usual, when things are repeated like a mantra in the media people eventually succumb to it. You even admit to this in your post. "I heard an influential guys say this, so now I believe it too!" Sure, the game isn't exactly what you expected but there really isn't any justification for a lawsuit. I bought the game Legendary when it came out because it looked cool, I've read bad books with good covers, and I spent money on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for NES when I was a kid, but I never even remotely considered reacting as inanely as you have towards Destiny. And Legendary was REALLY bad. This game is theoretically going to be here for a long haul and the developers are very receptive of community input. If you want something to change, try asking nicely. Or... You could form an angry mob of emotion-driven, media-influenced lunatics, spend thousands of dollars on a lawsuit, and hope to net a $60 return for your efforts. Just consider the insanity or your proposal, and if effective, the overwhelmingly destructive and paralyzing effect it would have on the future of the gaming industry. If George Orwell came back to life and wrote a story about a fictitious future gaming industry, it would be the industry you are unwittingly trying to create.
