No there is no bad blood I am sure. There was a rumor about six months in after Destiny's release that Bungie wanted to go back to Microsoft because of how badly things have been handled under Activision. Again that is nothing but rumor. But at the same time that rumor is a little more believable when you consider Destiny was originally planned to be exclusive to the Xbox 360 and Xbox 720 (before the official name) for at least a year. Bungie had spent the past ten years working with just Microsoft and clearly were very comfortable with them. Then something happened, again most likely large sums of money was involved, Activision flipped on the original deal and signed exclusive deals with Sony. And because Bungie is not the distributor they had no say in how that deal went down.

Microsoft wanted more Halo games and Bungie wanted to work on something else (Destiny). So they finished their contract with Microsoft and parted ways.

Edited by DisturbedShifty: 6/27/2016 9:56:31 PMI am aware of that. That still doesn't change the fact that the original deal, between Bungie/Activision and Microsoft, was to release Destiny on the Xbox consoles first. Essentially the timed exclusive content was reversed in the beginning but only with the entire game.
