There is a lot that is wrong with destiny. If you can't admit that, then I guess there is no reason to discuss it.

I had SO much fun with destiny during the beta. I thought it was the next GOAT game. After I finished the game, I realized what a piece of shite it was. The developers quit on that game. Like someone said, if you are having fun who gives a shite right? Some people still play COD

investing money in a game that is fun to play is generally how games work

even if it takes a year or more for that game to be fun. sorry you sold your investment in the game before it got good.

I still have the game bro. I don't like selling my games to gamestop. Gamestop is the debil baw. Hey man if you enjoy it that's all that matters I was just trying to educate the OP on why I don't/didn't enjoy it.

I mean it's an mmo. grinding is to be expected. I'm not sure what he expected. if you don't like grinding lol @ you for buying it. but the gameplay is what makes the grinding fun imo.

plus just because it wasn't that good when it released, doesn't mean that's the way it would stay. bungie is committed to it and will continue to make it better. the wolves expansion was a big step in the right direction

destiny expansion leaked
quote:

Bungie has stated previously that they have a 10-year plan for Destiny, and according to Bungie Director of Production, Jonty Barnes:

“We’re going to continuously update the game from now until the end of time. That’s always going to be part of the philosophy of Destiny. We always wanted to build a new universe but keep building upon it, rather than to do a complete and utter restart periodically.”

While the “end of time” may be a bit of an exaggeration, Bungie has indeed kept that promise of continuous updates thanks to their DLCs, but also with regular patches to fix noted issues the game will experience.

And this leads us to what’s coming next for Destiny, namely it’s newest and biggest expansion. The news come via a leaked marketing sheet acquired by Kotaku and it details what players can expect from the game’s next DLC, expected to release on September 15th. Titled The Taken King, the expansion is being priced at $40 USD, which puts is squarely between Destiny‘s original pricetag of $60 and its year one expansion pass (which included two sets of DLC) of $35. And since The Taken King will cost more at launch than both The Dark Below and House of Wolves, players should expect more bang for their buck.

The Taken King will include new story missions expanding upon Destiny‘s mythos, as well as new Strikes, PvP maps, and a new Raid that will pit players against Oryx (father of Crota, the raid boss from The Dark Below). In addition to added playable content, the three guardian classes will also be receiving an additional subclass and super ability: an electrical storm for Warlocks (arc); a gravity bow for Hunters (void); and a flaming hammer for Titans (solar).

Those new super abilities in particular will be welcomed news for players seeing as they add the type of damage (arc, void, solar) that those respective classes were missing. Also, it isn’t too surprising to learn The Taken King will include a new raid since that’s an addition that was noticeably absent from House of Wolves.

Aren't they already making a destiny 2? If the expansions were included with the original game then my stance on destiny would be a lot different.

dunno. nothing but rumors at this point. heard that destiny 2, if there is one, would just build upon the original. like it would just pick up where the last one ended.

and if you weren't expecting to pay for dlc to improve your gameplay in an mmo... well again lol @ you

I'm pretty sure there was a reddit post about Destiny and how they had planned to give us so much more but because cost/time constraints they cut it up into DLC. And if you think destiny is a MMO The game is a decent FPS with shite RPG elements. I have no problem paying for DLC if the games is GOOD, like fallout. The game was so bad at launch and they have been developing this game for 10 years.

They are working on destiny 2.

While this game is much like an mmo bungie said many times before release that it wasn't. I understand not liking the base game. It was not enough content and it didn't click for me at first either. I came back to play with friends and they are why I did not quit. I still didn't think the expansion was worth the cost since the base game didn't have enough content but it was gifted to me by drewbrla.

I think the value is fine now because you can get the game on sale for $20 and expansions total at $40 I think? So for a $60 total it is good. I understand why someone who wasn't happy with their initial $60 would not want to pump more in though.

Destiny??'?s style has been described as a first-person shooter that incorporates role-playing and massively multiplayer online game (MMO) elements, but Bungie has avoided defining Destiny as a traditional MMO game.[5] Instead, the game has been referred to as a "shared-world shooter,"[6] as it lacks many of the characteristics of a traditional MMO game.

you got me. it's not really an mmo

that's like your opinion man.

but like I said earlier there was no reason to believe it wouldn't get better.

and did get better. so when it did I realized I wasn't poor and I bought the expansions

It was a pretty big post with 10000+ views. Said he was an ex dev.

You don't know what an MMO is then

sure is baw. I just feel like you are trying to devalue my opinion with back handed comments.

quote:

uhh ok



The game right now is fine I'm sure. The last expansion was a fricking MESS. You played crota right? That's what they gave us, 3 story missions, 1 new strike, 1 frickED up raid that was glitched to HELL, and 2 more levels. Didn't explain anything else in the story (which is why I bought it in the first place) Destiny promised a lot and provided little. I will say again, if you are having fun then good for you baw.

They marketed the game different than it was. I also think they started development aiming for different than it was. It's not bad, but most sour opinions were made because of their expectations.

well you told the OP to not get the game.

you failed to mention your opinion is based on your experience prior to the wolves expansion. so I devalued your opinion.
