Is that really how you want the gaming world to work though? Or would you prefer to have everything available to you right from the beginning instead of having to wait for artificial 'release' dates? This practice is a poisonous one for the gaming industry and is only causing games potential like destiny to be sorely un-met. This story was originally epic from the sounds of it, then they were forced to make it fit in with DLC some-how.

  • Well there are two options when it comes to releasing a game with all of its content. Either they release the game a year later when they are done all of what would have been the DLC and include it in the regular game, or they release what they have then continue working on it

    This. Also it's an MO with optional SP. Just because halo was the other way around this game is evil? Come on people. I'd love to see these whiners put as many hours into Dev Time, takes years to make good games.

  • I'm not blaming the devs. I'm blaming Activision. The story was apparently completely different before activision stepped in, and now it's an utter DLC riddled mess. I preferred halo for having a complete and immersive story... This was just terrible. So yes, it's evil. if that's the way you wish to describe Criticism of business practices.

  • Yeah but a publisher will always find a way to milk your cow.

    Yeah but indies only make big games if they use unity.

  • Not true. Journey was indie, and that won tons of awards. and it told a compelling story without even using dialog, which is amazing. There are other examples, but I'm on my phone and can't really look them up at the moment.

    Seriously. I can't even. You are a complete moron. Journey was not huge. It doesn't even take 2 hours to beat. Shadow of the colossus is what you are thinking of, journey was fun for 5 seconds. And SotC was boring till you got the upgrades. Awards don't equal greatness. They just mean a bunch of critics like it.

    No, I'm not thinking of Shadow of the colossus... that game was boring as hell. I'm talking about the artsy, platformer game "Journey". Also fairly sure Shadow wasn't indie.

  • Well they only have sofC and ico. So yeah indie. If SotC was boring(it was) journey was worse(it is).
