I've been arguing with people about this for days now.
DESTINY IS NOT AN MMO!!!!!!!!!
fireteams of 6 is far from a massive experience.
It's a shooter with RPG elements.
It has no "real" open world and the economy system is total garbage.
NOT AN MMO!

Edited by TheBran127: 8/6/2015 6:03:08 PMYou're saying it shouldnt be treated as an MMO but Bungie clearly is. Bungie has said that Destiny is not an MMO, sure, but it can't be denied they are designing many aspects of the game to act like one. Your tantrums here on the forums about the official genre this game is or should be won't change the fact that Bungie is treating much of the mechanics of this game like an MMO. So in other words 2.0 balance is happening. Year 1 weapons and gear are not progressing. lol This is not changing the consensus of the player base on whether Destiny is an MMO or not. Its kind of silly really, the argument is futile. Even if everyone was to agree and say "you're right! Destiny is not an MMO..." isn't going to stop the changes from happening.

Edited by Star Gazer2: 8/6/2015 1:58:23 PM"It's still an mmo guys, get over it..." Basically the fallback for every mmo argument on the forums. How little people think. But feel free to use the earlier quote from Bungie themselves to make your arguments stronger.

My argument is that this is an mmorpg. Reason? Well it has every typical mmorpg feature. People refuse to say it's one but don't give ANY counter evidence to it. To argue, "supposedly" my weapons will become obsolete when ttk comes. If that's going to be a thing, then this cannot be called anything other than an mmorpg because mmorpg's have better great every dlc that just makes your current stuff "useless." Typical mmorpg trait

Edited by Star Gazer2: 8/6/2015 10:53:52 PMIt has mmo elements, but that does not make it an mmo. Borderlands has mmo elements, but it is not an mmo. Diablo has mmo elements, but it is not an mmo. Dot Hack (if you have ever heard of that game), also has MMO elements, but not a MMO. Fun fact: mmo = massive multiplayer online Also, Planetside 2 is labeled as an mmo because it is massive multiplayer online. There is also this bit of info of what makes a real mmo: http://www.gamebreaker.tv/news-main/mmorpg/what-makes-a-mmo-a-real-mmo/ http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/599/PlanetSide-2.html
