[quote]Since it's release in September of last year, the video game Destiny, Bungie's newest venture, has been extremely popular with people of all ages. Is this coincidence, a smash hit, or something more sinister from the legendary game designers?[/quote]
Skipping the boring part of the article and getting straight to the meat of it:
[quote]Perhaps Bungie's commercial success with the legendary Halo franchise has made them desperate to build up a larger and more dedicated fan base than newer rival 343 Industries, the part of the company that stayed with Microsoft, and the legendary franchise. This may have led to the questionable decisions by Bungie on gameplay and storyline that are affecting the unusually young audience (Brought in by the game's "Teen" rating from the ESRB) in a detrimental way, beyond the evils of a regular first person shooter.
The first way in which Destiny corrupts the youth of America is through the very idea of the main character, a member of an army blindly following a masked man called "The Speaker." Anyone who considers this at all sees the obvious real life parallel: Kim Jong Un and North Korea. This game teaches these young people to blindly follow a leader, possibly weakening their minds to North Korean propaganda.
A second risk caused by this game is an increase in suicide. In the game, a popular strategy is called "Wiping," where players agree to commit suicide (in game) to gain an advantage. This may desensitize children to the concept of suicide, as they respawn within a few seconds, actually better off than they were before. This teaches children that suicide is not only okay, but actually beneficial in some cases.
A final major issue is the introduction of a giant floating ball, called "The Traveller." Our expert researchers believe that this Traveller is designed to represent the Antichrist. It controls the Kim Jong Un-like Speaker, and leads them against an army of free people (Represented as inhuman monsters) in gory battles. It also grants them demonic powers, such as magical guns, knives, and other attacks. This evil magic should not be shown to the children of America, and should be treated as a serious threat to society. [/quote]

What do you guys think? I personally think Fox News is insane!
Please keep it clean and friendly. Last time I showed you guys this, some people got a little out of hand.
Edit: Alright, who bumped this?
-
I wish people actually clicked the link. Never been a part of a gaming "community" before. But the idiots who think you are serious is why I will never try to be a part of this
-
Everyone, do yourselves a favor and click the link before you respond.
-
Fox news actually has legitimate information, CNN is a greedy little fûck who cuts off half of peoples speeches and picks out the parts to make fox sound bad... CNN is a fûcking scavenger...
-
Well done, guardian.
-
It's kind of ridiculous how much people read into this stuff. If playing a game makes you think that you should blindly follow anyone, there's something else wrong.
-
Lol! That is hilarious! Antichrist!? Hahaha
-
Faux news is the official news of bigots,racist,and republicans.
-
Are people really taking this seriously? America is full of dumb -blam!-s. No wonder they vote Democrat..... They're idiots.
-
Rick would make a terrible president....
-
You know they said that about frozen also
-
The Speaker is Kim-Jong Un? Makes more damn sense than Destiny's story.

Edited by Damptowelman: 9/12/2015 6:15:14 AMYears ago, I named my Strange Scattergun in Team Fortress 2 "Fox News" because it's very inaccurate, like Fox News. Edit: Didn't see the link until just now. The story about the Scattergun is true though haha

Edited by Red Skyward: 9/12/2015 6:04:44 AMWow. Lost all respect for Fox (not that there really was any to begin with). All the points are extreme and I doubt anyone believes in such things. Murica! Edit: I found out who the darkness is...Its Fox News
-

-
We don't blindly follow an Un... We blindly follow a Deej.
-
