CONFIRMED: BUNGIE SOLD ITS SOUL...
[b]AND THEY GAVE US THE MIDDLE FINGER!!![/b]
The ODonnell vs Bungie legal battle is over and the truth prevail and is visible for all of Us to see and confirm that [b]BUNGIE NO LONGER CARES FOR QUALITY[/b], [b]BUNGIE NO LONGER CARES FOR THEIR FANS[/b], [b]BUNGIE ONLY CARES OF PROFITS[/b].
Marty stood against Activision decision to transform the musical score of Destiny from a gourmet dinner to a fast food meal.

Based on this information and how obsessed by quality and fans are Marty and [b]Joseph Staten[/b], We can imagine why Joseph also left Bungie and maybe that the Destiny original story theory is not so a theory but a reality. If Activision messed with the music then for sure they messed with the story. Even [b]Marcus Lehto[/b] is gone.
Seriously, this is really disappointing, for the first time since Pathways Into Darkness Im disgusted with Bungie.
[b]Marty, You have proven that You really cared for Us. Your place in history will always be bright and inspiring.[/b]
What a shame Bungie, really what a shame...

Lets me finish the sentence" bungie sold its souls to the devil"

I don't see what's the case here. These things happens every day in companies around the world. An employee did some work, the property decided to go with something else. Then he gets angry and shout on Internet. The they end up in a court. That's more than ordinary. I don't see in which way Bungie is not doing the best for their user here. Maybe they do, but not in this case IMHO.

Edited by Ne0nK0ala: 9/5/2015 6:14:27 PMJust saying, destinys story was always gonna be terrible. A games story is normally developed years before its actual release, that means that what we had at release was the story, which was created by staten, and guess what? It was all -blam!-ing terrible, none of the story was any good, none of it, if it was going to be better under staten's hands then at least some of it would have been at launch. Btw, staten was still the games one and only story director, so he had full responsibility for its story even with his departure, here's proof: https://www.bungie.net/en/destiny/credits Not defending bungie or activision, just stating the facts that kids don't understand.

2 RepliesYou really HONESTLY have no idea why BUNGIE makes the choices they make. BEING A DEVELOPER!!! I can tell you first hand that software projects of this magnitude have unexpected costs of STAGGERING PROPORTIONS. They may have made that choice in GREED {very doubtful}. I bet what motivated that choice was because 90% of players hardly hear the musical score BUT THEY DEFINITELY NOTICE when there is poor quality in game play. I would much rather have SOLID GAME PLAY and weak music. Just Sayin

If this is the first time Bungie has disappointed you or made you feel disgusted, you need to wake the f[u][/u]uck up and look at what they have been doing.

Please note: most of the people who made Bungie's reputation, stayed with 343 when Bungie sold the Halo title.

They really fooled me with that Etheric Light for a few weeks too. There is too much psychological manipulation integrated into this IP's game design and marketing.

10 RepliesActually, you gotta read more into it. Activision hired bungie to make the game for them. Bungie didn't hire Activision to publish. Thats importaint distinction. Marty cares for the music first and foremost, as most composers do. To allow himself to act irrationally and interrupt press conferences to such a point that it would generate bad publicity on a highy anticipated product release would definitely upset Activision which would be Bungie's employer, thereby creating a breach of contract and not only cost Bungie hundreds of millions of dollars, but potentionally the collapse of the company and their numerous employees without jobs to support their families. All because this guys ego couldn't take a back seat for a marketing trailer. A trailer that Activision is in charge of marketing. Even through all that, when Activison strongly suggested that Marty be terminated, Bungie stuck up for him and gave him a negative performance review. A minor slap on the wrist. Only after other employees from the music department began to complain about the negative impact his presents was having on the music development, and his decreasing contribution did bungie look at termination him. Where Bungie really screwwed the pooch was the way they did it. Denial of being paid out for vacation time, and looking the other way when he was working overtime off the books, and forcing Marty to relenquish his founders stock when the contract stated that only if he was to leave [i]voluntarily [/i] was a very foul move by Bungie's executive. Sadly, since this started I believe that the train derailed and all the people who had a hand in making a phenomenal company are gon or have been beat into submission. Those who remain are struggling to fill some pretty big shoes. Im holding out a little longer to see if Bungie can regain some of that magic.

[quote]The court filings say that O’Donnell believed he was preserving Bungie’s “creative process, artistic integrity, and reputation, keeping faith with fans, and protecting Bungie and its intellectual property from Activision’s encroachment into artistic decisions.”[/quote] this is why we all saw bungie as a company like no other.. marty, joe and others who left during the revisioning of this game know its just a real shame activision taints everything they touch
