Playing Destiny Under Age

Although this is an old, already discussed problem, I believe that we can still change. I feel that the majority of players that play Destiny are under the appropriate age for shooters. I think this age should be 18 and over. I'll give you a few reasons. 1)It causes traumatic situations. I for one do not want my child flinching and screaming away every time they see somebody holding a sword. 2) It causes anti-social instincts to grow. When you think about it, the average session a child will play in Destiny is three to four hours. That's three to four hours where the only communication the are getting is with people they have met over the Internet. I don't want children growing older and being scared of every person they see. 3) It teaches them bad words. Every lobby I go into, there is always that person (usually a child) screaming curse words for no good reason. Where did they find out these words? From older players. If there was a minimum age, you would not have this problem. Children are getting angrier because of this game. 4) My final reason is that it causes violence. No 10 year old should be able to make another creatures head explode, or shoot other players virtually. What happens when that transfers to the real world? That anger and frustration would lead to much property being desecrated including Mailbox Baseball Laser Tag TPing Houses Egging Cars Multiple holes in the wall from being punched. ANY PERSON who do not follow these rules should be arrested with a minimum 2 year sentence. Thank you all for the support you give me. I believe that a change to only 18 year olds and over would make the worlds youth safer and more intelligent than currently.

  • look, I'm 12 dude, and this is my first fps, 1 it's not any more traumatizing then when me and my friends used to play war when we were 8, or fight with out Pokemon. I'm a SUPER fragile guy, so much the I jumped the first time a drag shot me, if anything this game has made me less scared of the world 2 anti social? really? first of all, one of my friends got me to get this game, I got it, some of my friends got it, now at least 6 of us have it, we're always it party's, talking to each other, crucible, talking about xur and the raids, the best three (me Aqua642 and strallypop) usually raid together, and we can only do normal Croat by ourselves, we learned how to used LFG, and that is almost that is definitely NOT anti social 3 bad words? sorry man but we live in a world where your gonna hear them, just about where ever you go, and trust me, I know my 12 year old opinion on this won't convince you, but trying to shelter people (especially kids) from stuff only grows the addiction. + most of us were definitely not [u]introduced[/u] To [u]FOUL LANGUAGE [/u] by this game and the people we play with. If they swear to much, we might leave the team worlds not all pretty in pink 4 violence, can't fight this one as well as the others, all I want is credit where credit is due, a game like destiny, 1 game where u shot aliens, isn't enough to to make someone become a mass murder, we know, in life, we don't have respawns. the only time I'll ever pick up a gun, is a a Greg has his shock pistol locked on my chest. thank you
