Too little too late? As if to say that Destiny is not going to be able to make it through these games? As in these games are going to kill Destiny? As in how many other 'Destiny-Killers' have killed Destiny? You really think that now, as Destiny starts to get an even more massive foothold, and decides to go with a 'free dlc' model, is going to suddenly be eclipsed by ....anything? Don't get me wrong, I'm Ridiculously excited or Fallout 4 and Just Cause 3 and Uncharted 4, but When I'm not doing those things (and sure that will take me a while), I'm going to be doing what millions of others are going to be doing, and that's playing Destiny. That's not fanboyism or anything other than the reality of it. Destiny's 'trial period' is pretty much gone by, and at this point, it's a fairly steady revenue stream for Activision, that is not only growing, but also generating higher reviews. CoD would have to do something utterly ridonkulous to garner back my attention at this point. Some sort of new Ghost recon type campaign just ain't cutting it. Zombies? Played out. And Halo 5 may be one of the best games in a long time, but it's far lower install base on only Xbox One, means that Halo 5 would have to basically be the shooter of everyone's dreams in order to start making a decent chip in Destiny's overall install base. A shooter so good that it sold the console without even trying. While I'm sure CoD will do better than AW, and Halo 5 will undoubtedly be good, I still don't see them coming even close to 'Killing Destiny'

  • People play old games all of the time. Kill it? No. knock it on its asss? Yes sir. The paid dlc was for the most part trash until the taken king dropped. I in no way expect taken king quality dlc for free. Only a fool would. They'll continue to add these exotic guns that you have to wait for weeks to get access to the quest steps which will probably be the game's downfall. I had no desire to play other games until I started running into wait a week or two to get the next step in a quest. Or getting the Black Spindle but guess what no ship see you in two weeks buddy grind it again and hope for the best. Stupid move that causes wandering eyes. I found myself bored with the game and went back to BF4 and COD AW this past week. Fallout 4 will be so time consuming and full of things to do it'll be months before I'll want to come back and grind, grind and grind some more for an exotic weapon that I already have two legendary versions of that are better. I honestly don't think there are "millions" playing this game now with the amount of time it takes to fill a crucible lobby and even a heroic strike. Heroic strikes are full of people either quitting or wandering off to find whatever it is they're looking for. And don't get me started on sitting in a forum for an hour begging 5 other people to run a raid with me only to have two of them quit because two people don't have a certain weapon. There is a difference between frustration and fun.
