[quote]1. Destiny is not a new innovation. All of its "inventions" have merely been ripped off from other games, and poorly.[/quote] When someone made the alphabet and someone else reorganized it into new sentences and meanings, I guess that wasn't an innovation. When someone took existing concepts from a car and made it smaller for use on lawns, I guess that wasn't an innovation. Destiny is an innovation standard. There's no other game which combines four console systems, FPS, and all the components of it. You came to destiny just to do raids? You can't till you get to level 26. You came to have a max level with only strength modifiers on it? You will have a very long trial ahead of you. There are challenges Destiny has presented which are standalones compared to all previous "innovations". That's the purpose of reorganizing them. What you are talking/thinking about? It's called an original innovation. And there's very few things which are original after 2000 years of innovating each generation. [quote]2. Even though the players on reddit and Bungie.net don't represent the majority of players, they do represent the consistent players.[/quote] Consistent is a bad word. What you mean to say, I think, is the most vocal. And that would also be wrong. Why? Bungie took it upon themselves to see full range of statistics and data on all players without them SPEAKING to Bungie but are still COMMUNICATING to them. By how they play and by working towards players end goals on where they farm or why ammo drops more in certain encounters and why more players find this area easier in the Crotas End Raid or Omnigul strike then the other areas. [quote]3. This isn't the place for essays. Try to make your writing more short and to the point.[/quote] The determining factor of that is the post limitations. 10,000 characters. You're right. That's not nearly enough for an essay.
