[quote] Please read the case, "[u]rich cinematic story telling[/u]" that's what we bought, that is what we should have.[/quote]
This is a good example of people reading something that wasn't explicitly "promised" and then getting bitter when their expectations are higher than what was actually "promised". There is nothing in that statement that is not techically true.
English

It says on the box: rich story telling. That was not in the game.
-
Technically, it was. It is a vague, subjective phrase typical of all marketing goobledegookspeak, and cannot be taken literally to mean the same thing to everyone.
-
Opinion that is neither true nor false. Your argument is invalid.
-
Sorry but is it all comments that you don't agree with invalid.
-
Just say something similar back to him. He's been trolling me like that the past couple of days too. Lol I don't think he even knows half the words he uses
-
Considering that more than 80% of the story is read through a card system, I think that proves there isn't really a rich CINEMATIC story in the game.
-
There are a lot of things that were shown as game content that was removed, story line was cut and nowhere in the game is there any rich storytelling. Considering this game was meant to be in the same breathe as Lotr, Harry potter and such things.
-
The point is, there was no "deception". Your expectations were not met, but that was because they were unrealistically high; because you wanted it to be true not because it was "promised" to be what you wanted. There is nothing on the back of the box that is not true, and the only thing I ever saw mentioned about Harry Potter or LotR was that it could occupy the same shelf, which is also true (or would be if you actually owned those books).
-
Sorry mate but my expectations where only based on what we all saw nothing more, Destiny is a huge let down and if you're happy with it then that's up to you.

If you really just fixed your grammar skills it would bring a whole new light to your argument... Well it would help you not discredit yourself. You sound like our goddamn politicians on debate, you are repeating yourself like a broken record fumbling over your words at every corner, where was this 'promised' content you keep referring to? The game is barely a few months old and you are expecting a completely finished product that is expected to live more than a year.... If you give the community 100% of the planned content on day 1, the majority will be done and bored by the end of year 1. Next argument please, and can we make it realistic for the real-world? Thanks.
-
So when you buy a game you don't expect it to be finished, my how times do change.
-
My understanding of a 'finished' game must be vastly different from your interpretation of the matter. Sure Destiny doesn't have the BEST storyline ever implemented into a video game, I will agree to that. But that doesn't make me believe that the game is unfinished, or that I have been robbed of my money. There is room for improvement and that is a good thing, in my opinion.

A game who's focus is on the multiplayer aspects of the game, not a single player game based solely on a single player campaign and story content, yeah I would not expect the game to be 100% complete when it is released. Destiny is a multiplayer game, which right from the very start this was made very clear as was the pledge by the devs to continuously improve upon the game as it ages and evolves with the community, they are developing this game the same way an MMO is handled. You release the product when it is ready and continue to add to it little by little over time, with large additions in the form of DLCs and expansion packs. We don't [i]deserve[/i] any free content, we were not promised anything that isn't in the game. Removing revenue from the picture will only ensure one thing: Destiny will be abandoned prematurely and the dev team will be repurposed to work on other projects with more promising return on investment ratings.
