Its pretty sad really. As a long time Xbox owner, I had SO much respect for Bungie and what they were doing at the time. Halo CE was the first game I'd ever played in the original Xbox/PS era and I became a Bungie fan & loyalist instantly. It was the whole reason I bought an xbox. But this shit...Destiny... Pfft. Nothing but a major, high-dollar run-around. I mean seriously, this has all been some ole' back alley sketchy shit from launch. Outside of the way this game looks, which is BEAUTIFUL, you have... Sleezy roulette table styled in game character progression mechanics designed to lure you in like a casino to keep playing (which shouldn't be necessary if the game was already both fun AND FULL in the first place).... Repetitive mission content which wouldn't even be so bad if there was just more of it... No character or npc dialogue. No real story to be immersed in. No immersive feel to the world of the game whatsoever. This is actually a HUGE step back from your previous franchise. I don't know WTF happened there. Other than in game movement mechanics, that was your bread and butter. Guess I'll just point, shoot, and blow shit up (that's still fun though lol)... The social aspect design of the game is just a plain contradiction of what you actually said you wanted. Thank god for party chat... Even with all of that, most of us all just said "Hey, it's Bungie. Of course they'll get this right. They've been doing this for years." Then after all the "Super Mega Ultra" editions that include DLC have been purchased, you sneakily slip in this "For the best Destiny experience, play Destiny on Playstation 4" bullshit which translates to "-blam!- you loyal xbox gamers who at one time were the main source of putting food on our tables" The DLC is small as shit even with the exclusives. So how are you going to give even less of that as paid content? AT THE SAME DAMN PRICE!? No one cares if it's timed. Do you think that after this slap in the face that the majority of xbox gamers are even going to want to play your game in a year? Yea maybe I sound a little personal and butthurt, but this feels personal and is very shitty for the consumer. After the DLCs that I've already paid for release and I've played around with them long enough to feel like I've gotten my monies worth, I'll never buy anything else with sell-out Bungie's name on it again.
