Sorry but I can see this as the only way for Bungie to save this game. We have all paid for what most have come to think of as a Beta of what we thought and were promised. We are then meant to sit around and wait for a Dlc which cost about he same as the game itself. That's meant to make people happy? Now I don't care if you are a Ps fan boy or and Xbox gamer (joke), none of us deserve to have to fork out more money for a full game. So due to this I think we should get a free DLC from Bungie with an apology for selling us a Beta not the full game. This free DLC/patch should redo the story, making it worthy of the people that brought us Halo. Proper cut scenes that tell a true story, maybe even a twist in there. The Awoken queen recognising your race and responding to you appropriately, not just calling you "it". None of that "I'll explain later" rubbish, a real story that gets to your soul. Bungie owe it to themselves to grip us with a real first episode, to a game that is meant to be around for 10 years.
If you agree please comment so Bungie/Activison [u]might[/u] take notice.
[b]Just to make this clear, I am asking for the story to be fixed. Not multi player maps, guns or anything that shouldn't be in the game we all bought. The story that was cut and we all saw was in the game before the cuts. That can only come as a free DLC or patch, if that's a better word for people. However it has to fix the nonsensical story, that is not what is advertised on the back of the case. Please read the case, "[u]rich cinematic story telling[/u]". That is what we thought we had bought, that is what we should have. Hope that makes things clear for some that think anyone that agrees wants some kind of hand out. As we don't, we just want what we paid for. A story driven game, not a watered down version of what was touted.[/b]
I do have theory why the story is so bad and nondescript. My theory is that it was written by deej. You know the guy that gives nondescript answers to every question? That's all I can think of as to why the story is so bad, it's deej's fault. As it can't be Bungie can it? They brought us the original Halo and the emotional Halo Reach, remember the end of that? Truly an amazing ending, Bungie did that. They couldn't of written this Destiny tripe. Seriously watch this....

This is more gripping than the whole of destiny.[b][u] So basically Bungie advertised a roast dinner with all the trimmings and gave us a pot noodle instead.[/u][/b]

I personally love the part where he talks about Destiny not being a MMO, it's more of story driven.
Edit - changed title as even though I explain what I was asking for, some seem to be confused.

I agree with the argument that none of us should have to pay again for the release of 'the rest of a game' (i.e. not a true expansion just delayed content) because it teaches companies to rush games and be greedy and exploitative. But on the other hand I don't think Destiny is a disaster of a game. I find it enjoyable enough to play as it is now, even though it has room for a lot of potential improvements. However, those improvements will never materialise if Bungie/Activision decide to drop the game - that's not to say that we should all shut up and take it, just that we should be more constructive in our criticism/protest of such things. In my opinion the price of the DLC should be much lower, at least half of what it is now, because at £30/$40 it costs about as much as a new game and whatever the content I don't see that as being very fair since the original game was £40/$60. The developers/people who maketh the game content are doing a job and I have no problem with them earning money from it as long as it is reasonable and not disproportionately overpriced . No matter the content of a DLC pack it is still not a whole new game and should not be priced like one - because that sets a dangerous precedent for the games industry. Naughty Dog's The Last of Us is a good example of how it should be done. The Last of Us Left Behind DLC was priced at £12/$19 - that's a reasonable price in my opinion. Destiny's upcoming DLC expansions bundle should be around £15 (that would be $24) or lower otherwise I will not be buying it, no matter how much potential I think the game has.
