I'm just disappointed, the last game I bought was Borderlands 2 after how successful the first was I had to buy it. BL1 had a bit of hype about it, they promised millions of weapons, laughs, good mechanics, and a nice fps/rpg blend. And they delivered on all fronts and then some. I constantly found myself surprised by new things and laughing at a sly comment and generally silly situations. It was the most engaging experience for me since Fallout 3. So the logical decision was to drop the 30$ for 4 DLC. After the massive success of BL1 I invested in BL2 and all its DLC because I could trust them. Again they delivered. After 4 years I put in almost 400 hours into the two games because it was enjoyable it was replayable . Fast forward to spring 2013, I had now been hearing about Destiny for a few months and their promises of lush vibrant open world landscapes full of chance encounters with enemies and guardians alike, a cinematic story like no other, and Revolution to gaming genres. It is now almost 2 months after launch. The planets are linear (when you spawn you get to go left or right and each path has a couple stops before you reach a strike or an important story mission), the story is non existent, and the game mechanics are lackluster and lacking execution. I can barely stand to play more than 3 strikes a day or running VoG. Now here we are, you are asking for 20$ for a DLC with a handful of gear, raising the level cap by 2!?, a few missions, and some story that the game desperately needs. BL had 4x the DLC for 2x the price, raised the level cap by 5-10 each tim, technically introduced hundreds if not thousands of weapons and gear, had missions and stories that benefitted the existing lore (not because the existing was so shallow) So no, I will not be buying this DLC, you have not earned my trust or money. In my eyes you lied or have yet to deliver on any of your promises, you bypass existing standards and introduce your own for a quick buck. you cannot treat us like children or second class citizens and expect our continued loyalty. I will however keep playing the game I chucked 60$ on not because I'm frugal but because it's my only solace when I get to leave studio in which I spend 60 hours a week in. So thanks for making my down time a fraction less boring (compl-insult). TL;DR bungie has not delivered on their promises and continually fails the community, no trust = no money. Bad dogs don't get treats, Bungie should earn our money not expect it Regards, Senilefelines

  • I agree bro. Destiny just needs to release all DLC and then in a year or so add more into the game to keep people not wait -blam!-ing 5 months since release when almost all pre orders are finished with the game and now Bungie wants to go up by 2 lvls! Bullshit at least raise it to 40 to keep us playing and put like 3 new planets in with an additional story. Or make a mode called like Hive defense or something and make us fight waves of hive with our brothers in arms. That I would pay 20$ for or even 40

  • it seems like they are releasing contet to keep us interested, that is something I never felt in Fallout, Borderlands, or Mass Effect, a loss of interest. These game kept my butt planted for hours at a time every time I opened them, and still do! They promised us one of the most riveting stories and immersible worlds and after 5 weeks that feeling of exploration and the shininess wore off. DLC from any of the previously mentioned games kept me more occupied than this title The DLC seems like a cheap trick, just like these last few hotbugs. I have no faith at this titles ability to last 10 years yet alone one. it's disturbing for me to see how infatuated I was with game prior and a week into it release, to see where I am now, voicing my opinion rallying against it.... You broke my heart bungie.
