Destiny should be rated T
I believe Destiny should be rated T and I'm not just saying that because I can't play M rated games, but because of other gamers than can only play T rated games and are looking forward to playing Destiny. When I first saw the Destiny law of the jungle trailer I was amazed! I bet a lot of other gamers were impressed to and I would hate it to make a gamer suffer just because of one stupid rating. I personally think this game is going to be rated T for multiple reasons. First of all, I don't think guardians are going to be dropping F-bombs every time they're hit. Second reason is that I really don't see blood or anything so that shouldn't be a problem. And I know that some other people want it to be rated M because they like blood and swearing, but honestly, do you think the world would be the same after what happens in the Destiny story? And in the trailers they seem to be more of the high manners type, not people dropping F-bombs. But the main reason I want this game to be rated T is because of all the gamers that can only play T rated games. Let me know what you think.

While I generally think the ESRB rating system is a total load of malarky, as a father, I can understand where having some instant insight into what my children are trying to get me to buy them could come in handy. That being said, as an avid video game enthusiast, and someone who played "violent" games as a young adult (Doom, Quake, etc.), I don't get the scare some parents have about the ESRB ratings. OP, your best course of action would be researching the effects of video games, and digging up ACTUAL (read: not wikipedia, use a library) studies that have been done on the effects of violent [i]media[/i] on children/developing brains, and presenting the results to your parents in an informed manner. If my daughter made a good enough argument, I'd let her play whatever she wanted (and I do). TL;DR: Stand outside of your favorite retailer and beg people to buy it for you, it's what kids did for booze and smokes when I was your age.
