I heard that the ten year plan is going to include sequels... Every 2 years a new destiny game will emerge. I can't call this game close to an MMo if that is true. In my mind I don't think current players will ever find out the hole story of destiny unless they cough up another 60 for destiny 2,3,4,5. 10 years a new sequel every 2 years means 5 destiny games... I was hoping for more dlc throughout the 10 years but that sounds like wishful thinking now. What does everything know or think about this?

  • Actually, it would be six games. Destiny is the start of the ten year cycle so.... 8 years left = Destiny 2 6 years left = Destiny 3 4 years left = Destiny 4 2 years left = Destiny 5 0 years left = Destiny 6

  • That's what I thought too but the contract says only 4 games. According to the poster who originally said it, like I said, I don't know the whole deal I was just trying to spread his information

  • Four games would make it every 2.5 years. Not bad for a game series but horrible for a MMO. I hope it meant more like major expansion packs instead of actual sequels.

  • Someone else posted this and I can't remember who so I can't give him credit, but this info wasn't my own. So I'll put it in quotes. "According to the contract between bungie and activision, that is public due public record laws. A new game comes out every other year, with 4 DLCs each. So four games total, 60 dollars each equals 240 bucks for all the games, and 4 DLCs each for 20 bucks is 80 dollars. Each game then equals 140 bucks just to get to max level assuming they increase light level each DLC, multiply by 4 games and you'll spend 560 dollars to play the whole series in it's entirety over the 10 years."

  • Also add in the 50 dollars to get online for a year just to be able to play the game and the whole series will cost you about 1060 dollars over 10 years.

  • If this is all really true, then how about you compare it to $12-15/mo every month to play another MMORPG. $12 x 12mo x 10yr = $1,440. Sounds like Destiny should easily come in less than that if you're only interested in knowing how much you'd spend over the entire story. And I would still take Destiny in that argument since you'd be getting new games every other year AND DLC where most MMO's are just expansions.

  • Well it would be impractical to release ten years worth of dlc and patches on top of one base game. We're better off with occasional sequels.

  • This is Activision. Take a look at Tony hawks pro skater games, guitar hero games and call of duty games.they will rehash the same boring shit untill it's lying dead on the ground
