Playing Destiny Under Age

Although this is an old, already discussed problem, I believe that we can still change. I feel that the majority of players that play Destiny are under the appropriate age for shooters. I think this age should be 18 and over. I'll give you a few reasons. 1)It causes traumatic situations. I for one do not want my child flinching and screaming away every time they see somebody holding a sword. 2) It causes anti-social instincts to grow. When you think about it, the average session a child will play in Destiny is three to four hours. That's three to four hours where the only communication the are getting is with people they have met over the Internet. I don't want children growing older and being scared of every person they see. 3) It teaches them bad words. Every lobby I go into, there is always that person (usually a child) screaming curse words for no good reason. Where did they find out these words? From older players. If there was a minimum age, you would not have this problem. Children are getting angrier because of this game. 4) My final reason is that it causes violence. No 10 year old should be able to make another creatures head explode, or shoot other players virtually. What happens when that transfers to the real world? That anger and frustration would lead to much property being desecrated including Mailbox Baseball Laser Tag TPing Houses Egging Cars Multiple holes in the wall from being punched. ANY PERSON who do not follow these rules should be arrested with a minimum 2 year sentence. Thank you all for the support you give me. I believe that a change to only 18 year olds and over would make the worlds youth safer and more intelligent than currently.

  • Dude primary and high school has 10x more swearing than destiny and if your really that worried the out him/her in a private party with no one else but friends so the. You can't hear destiny As for violence that is infact very rare for that to happen over a game most incidences are rumours proven to be false accusations for the companies to get more hype...it's reverse psychology so more people defend the game and buy it to prove it's not going to do that And with anti-social you are totally wrong. I'm 13 and I play destiny around that time but so are my school friends who live pretty far away so to hang out you need to plan it a few days in advance and it's just too hard. So being able to party up with my friends and do stuff with them is so much fun and social. And 2 years is way to harsh and your completely wrong cos you have to be over 10 to even go to a juvenile prison anyway.(at least where i live) also if it was that bad it would be R18+ and you can't judge the kid all he/she did was ask his/her parent was the one who bought it for him/her because of that age he/she needs a parents permission. Also he/she is fighting aliens not humans and it's you have no idea whether the hostile is exo or not so basically he/she not going to grab a gun and kill humans because they aren't the true enemy it's aliens and there is no swearing in the story's dialogue so therefor it can only be rated M, also there is no blood/gore so that's why it's not rated MA15+ or R18+. In conclusion think before you write and don't write this because you hate twelvies it's not your age it's how you act.
