So I just learnt that in addition to Bungie restricting three full sets of armour, two weapons, three vehicles, an entire multiplayer map and an entire -blam!-ing mission (in which Destiny is in desperate need of) to a single platform, they are also locking away exclusive content in the DLC as well... this is just ridiculous and unacceptable! So, let me get this straight, if you're not playing on Playstation, not only will you not get the entirety of the game after paying full price, you won't even get the entirety of the DLC after paying full price for it either? Any chance of me purchasing Destiny has quickly evaporated.
The more I learn about Destiny, the less I care about it, and the more I learn to despise Bungie. Every single Weekly Update--including this one--is filled with damage control and/ or Deej--or Urk--trying to spin some bullshit on the 7C due to lack of features in Destiny, or to circumvent disappointment. Bungie is now very insidious, which is a far cry from what I would have said about them during the Halo era. I mean, come on, I know that you guys are gonna give me hate (again), but do you honestly not see how bullshit some of this stuff is? Hell, I'm even talking to Playstation fans, while you guys aren't being negatively affected by this as much as Xbox fans are, can you not see that some of the promises are quickly starting to form into blatant lies?
Some of you are going to pass this off as trolling because of how vocal I am about my disappointment, but I really am finding it hard to believe that I am the only one who can see this...
To everyone who is calling me an Xbot, bashing the Xbox One, telling me that I don't like Destiny because I suck at it, or are just hurling tactless insults, congratulations in being a shining example of what I have to look forward to if I ever do decide to play Destiny. The 7C is now a festering cesspit. The original members who operate under the bounds of logic and reason are in the decline or are just overshadowed by the incredible number of idiots; for every reasonable comment--in which I respect greatly--there are two moronic ones.
If you're reading this and are one of the members of the community who had a reasonable discussion with me, I thank you. You give me hope that the 7C and gaming as a whole aren't doomed.
Edit: I will not be replying from here on out. My endeavour to voice my concerns and outrage was successful from the moment that I clicked 'post'. I have no intentions of arguing with anyone in the comments section below.

Xbox have Tomb Raider as an exclusive next year :p so I say PlayStation and Xbox is even due to that (:
-
In what world does tomb raider have to do with destiny. This isn't a trade off bungie is being unfair to xbox players, the beta fine they have half reasonable explanations but to favour playstation in the real game is bs either you become an exclusive or you don't there shouldn't be a middle ground. FYI: I play on playstation

Edited by Andrenden: 8/27/2014 4:25:48 AMHalo. Same company, even more exclusive as playstation didn't get it at all. Now is it relevant? That said I suppose I'll expand on it. Why do you want to further exclude people? Imagine how you felt about them getting halo, sure it wasn't the best thing since Jesus but you probably still would've liked to play it. Why should we now exclude another group of people for a game that's *in my opinion and only an opinion* better then halo?
-
I'm not saying it should be exclusive I'm just saying its unfair that Xbox players pay the same price for less.
-
You mentioned them wanting to choose to be exclusive or not. Game was built for PS and ported over so their choice was made at the start on which console was getting the game so Xbox is already getting the benefit of not having it fully exclusive. I don't see a reason why they deserve the exclusive bits aside from "it's not fair" when as I said, we didn't even get to PLAY halo.
-
no it's genious! exclusive shuts out half the community, so Bu8ndie has found a middle ground, playstation gets to taste the fruit first and enjoy a little love then for the next 9 1/2 years we are all on the same level playing feild..
-
I just want the maps eventually. All the rest of the items I would find better replacements within a couple weeks
-
You can't get everyone to like a game , I for one am glad you won't be playing destiny ... As its more for adults and not ungrateful children like your self
-
He was talking about fairness you know kind of like sharing or are you too young to learn that in school.

Well said guardian!

Edited by ReZ: 8/26/2014 9:51:26 PMAnd blame Microsoft for not having full support for destiny day 1. Sony went first so they get exclusive dlc. Activision wanted to make it even for PS and Xbox. So cod is Xbox destiny is PS. And Microsoft is already greedy aasholes who buy out big 3rd party franchises and pay 3rd party devs for exclusives. Sorry if I came off like an asshole but I get pissed to easily

Blah blah shut the -blam!- up. You never hear us PS fans whining about Xbox getting dlc first for cod and evolve and dragon age. Bungie doesn't owe you shit.
-
Lol the beginning of your comment... :) thanks for the laugh!

Edited by ZookaJB: 8/27/2014 12:41:46 AMAlright, I understand that us, Xbox gamers, don't get some of the exclusives, but is this necessary to complain about it? Besides, I'm not sure if all of it will, but most is only a time exclusive. Also, I'm not surprised that Sony took advantage of the situation making some content exclusive. Bungie needs to show their separation from Microsoft and Sony now has an Activision exclusive so it's kind of a win win situation for both. Bungie deserves to have a break from Microsoft. I hope this is a great game for everyone.
-
Lol they didn't give sony anything they paid for the exclusives but I get your meaning.

It's activision fault you know that bungie doesn't have the power to make those decisions they just spread the word and get blamed for it

Edited by TEKALL: 8/27/2014 2:43:22 AMI like Goincrazy response to this post. It's totally right and not blind sided. Just to add, you might be very vocal but think of this that Goincrazy pointed out. Money! In the world of business this makes that world turn around unlike the earth that uses gravitational pulls and rotations. The big point i am trying to make is this. We as xbox users are going to be getting this very same times exclusives eventually but at the cost out of our pockets. PPL Microsoft walked away with all rights to Halo and like it or not Bungie is their biggest concern when it comes to the competition of best FPS game for the year and years to come. [b]"Why would I pay a lot of attention and pump money into my now competitor; once business partner merchandise?" [/b] I won't if I was Microsoft and how many of you all would if you did own a system thats getting a lot of flank and negativity because they (Microsoft) became too relaxed during this era of evolved gaming consoles. It's their fault not Bungie's. For all Sony cared if they could have paid a bigger check and made DESTINY PS exclusive only. Period!! Trust me I am so thankful I don't have to look back at halo thats dead now for good in my personal gaming exp. We get to play destiny and get new content exclusive or not. And mind you the game will have enough content to hold you through before you even bother remember anything about not having exclusives if no one reminds you of it. Even if DESTINY has the ability to move consoles I am thankful sony is doing this good because if they wasn't who knows just they would have done or how much money they would have spent just to come out on top [b]"They could have bought DESTINY for playstation only to help move more units" [/b]wrap that around your mind a bit. We all know that a Bungie game has the reputation of moving more units on a console. Thats why Microsoft did what was done to halo. Besides why bother yourself about something thats not going to affect your gaming experience any how because you are not going to cross paths with anyone on playstation. I was like you once. Bitter about the whole exclusives and early releases etc... But I have learned not to be after playing the beta. And I want to thank Bungie for the opportunity to allow we xbox users to do so. Because they already have coding experience with xbox and their servers but not playstation. Once again something we could not have experienced. Sony could simply write a bigger check and make this game Playstation only. But Bungie not being the greedy bastard! Most would make them out to be has a genuine love for the 7C and their fan base on the other side of the coin. They did not let us go, nor dropped us like a hot potato. For that I as a gamer am very thankful. And my choice of system is simply because of choice and comfort of controller. Thats what makes the difference to me and where it all lies for me personally. At the end of the day its not the console in your hand but the controller. Both consoles are great and look just about the same too me to realize console wars are nothing more than a companies gimmick to get buyers all rev up to buy! buy! buy! For these companies its ship! ship!! ship!!!
